Title: High frequency circuit analyser
IPC: G01R31/28
Filed: 2003-07-24
Abstract: An analyser for measuring the response of an electric device (DUT 206) to an RF input signal from a signal generator (240a) is described. An active load pull circuit (201) is connected to the DUT 206, which receives an output signal from the DUT 206 and then feeds a modified signal back to the DUT 206. The signal is modified by a signal processing circuit (237) in view of input signals x, y to control the magnitude gain and phase change effected by the feedback circuit (237). Thus, positive feedback loops are avoided and better control of the analyser is permitted. A network analyser, or other signal measuring device (242), logs the waveforms (from which s-parameters derived) observed at ports of the DUT 206, thereby allowing the behaviour of the DUT 206 under various load conditions to be analysed.

Title: Concurrent record access database system
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1988-09-23
Abstract: A data base system on a computer uses an index tree containing record keys which reference associated records in the data base. The tree, which comprises a root node extending through intermediate nodes to leaf nodes, provides concurrent accesses to a plurality of users. When changes are to be made to the key structure, action has to be taken to prevent users, other than the user making the change, from corrupting the data or receiving corrupted data. To do this, when one user is inserting or deleting a key and its associated record, all accesses to a node being traversed by this user and the immediately traversed mode are limited to read accesses by other users. At the leaf node, all accesses by others to the key and record being added or deleted are prevented together with accesses to the next successively located record key and its associated record. After the deletion or insertion, the access limitations are removed.

Patent GB-9301714-D0 (GB)
Title: Reconfigurable signal processor
IPC: G06F15/177
Filed: 1993-01-28
Abstract: An interconnection scheme among the processing elements ("PEs") of a multiprocessor computing architecture realizes, through PE reconfiguration, both fault tolerance and a wide variety of different processing topologies including binary trees and linear systolic arrays. By using a novel variant on a tree expansion scheme, the invention also allows for arbitrary up-sizing of the PE count to build virtually any size of tree network, with each size exhibiting same high degree of fault tolerance and reconfigurability. The invention may be practiced with 4-port PEs arrayed in a module comprising a 4x4 board-mounted PE lattice. Each PE has four physical ports, which connect to the similar ports of its lattice neighbors. Each PE has an internal capability to be configured to route signals to or from any of its neighbors. Thus, for tree topologies, any of the four neighbors of a given PE may be selected as the parent of the given PE; and any or all of the remaining three neighboring PEs may be selected as the child(ren) PEs. The PE ports are configured under the control of a remote host, which establishes an initial desired PE topology. The operability of the PEs is tested, and information on faulty PEs or communications paths is used to enable or disable nodes as necessary by revising the PE port configurations. The nodes thus are reorganized and can run or continue running, on a degraded basis.
