Patent EP-1929841-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CHI CHENG-HANG
IPC: H05B6/64
Filed: 2006-08-29
Abstract: A susceptor assembly comprises a generally planar susceptor having an electric field director structure mechanically connected thereto. The field director structure includes at least one, but more preferably, a plurality of two or more vanes mechanically connected to the susceptor. Each vane has a surface at least a portion of which is electrically conductive. The vane(s) are most preferably disposed substantially orthogonal to the planar susceptor. The connection may be either a fixed or a flexible articulating connection. In use, such as in the presence of a standing electromagnetic wave generated within a microwave oven, only an attenuated electric field component of the electromagnetic wave exists in a plane tangent to the surface of the vane in the vicinity of the conductive portion of the vane. Attenuation of the electric field component of the electromagnetic wave in the plane tangent to the surface of the vane resulting in enhancement of the component of the electric field substantially orthogonal to the conductive surface. Rotation of the susceptor assembly within the oven, or variation of the standing electromagnetic wave generated within the oven (as by a mode stirrer) results in a substantially uniform warming, cooking and browning effect on a food product placed on the planar susceptor.

Title: Carbon nanotube resonators
Inventor: WARD JONATHAN W
IPC: G01R23/00
Filed: 2006-09-05
Abstract: Under one aspect, a resonator includes a nanotube element including a non- woven fabric of unaligned nanotubes and having a thickness, and a support structure defining a gap over which the nanotube element is suspended, the thickness of the nanotube element and the length of the gap being selected to provide a pre-specified resonance frequency for the resonator. The resonator also includes a conductive element in electrical contact with the nanotube element; a drive electrode in spaced relation to the nanotube element; and power logic in electrical contact with the at least one drive electrode. The power logic provides a series of electrical pulses at a frequency selected to be about the same as the pre-specified resonance frequency of the resonator to the drive electrode during operation of the resonator, such that the nanotube element responds to the series of electrical pulses applied to the drive electrode by making a series of mechanical motions at the resonance frequency of the resonator.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for protecting high throughput (HT) stations (STAs) are disclosed. In one embodiment, a physical layer (PHY) legacy preamble transmitted by one STA is decoded by another STA that does not use a legacy preamble. In another embodiment, one STA is identified by another STA by using bits in the preamble of a packet to indicate which PHY type will be used in the remaining portion of the packet. In yet another embodiment, one STA sends ready-to-send (RTS)/clear-to-send (CTS) or CTS-to-self messages for reserving a medium in the presence of another STA of a different type than the one STA. In yet another embodiment, an access point (AP) transmits a beacon or an association message including a capability information element (IE) that indicates operation or support for a legacy preamble, HT STA preambles and a medium access control (MAC) packet transmission with HT protection mechanisms.

Abstract: Procédé de tir d'une arme à projectiles consistant à déterminer l'inclinaison d'une ligne de mire d'un point de vue VP à une cible T et une distance de ligne de mire R2 jusqu'à la cible, puis à estimer un paramètre de trajectoire (tel que le trajet BP2 d'une balle) à la distance de ligne de mire pour un projectile prédéterminé P. Le procédé consiste ensuite à utiliser le paramètre de trajectoire pour déterminer une distance horizontale équivalente EHR2, la distance horizontale équivalente EHR2 représentant la distance à laquelle le paramètre de trajectoire devrait se produire si le projectile P était tiré du point de vue VP en direction d'une cible théorique Tth située dans un plan horizontal coupant le point de vue VP. La distance horizontale équivalente peut être utilisée pour corriger la chute balistique lors de la décharge d'une arme à projectiles. Le procédé peut être mis en œuvre dans un télémètre laser portable incorporant une mémoire utilisée pour stocker des données balistiques. L'invention concerne également des systèmes de réglage automatique de l'angle de relèvement dans un dispositif de pointage d'une arme.

Abstract: In a biometrics authentication apparatus, a storage unit stores a dictionary containing biometrics information of a registered person. An information acquisition unit acquires biometrics information of a subject person. An authentication unit authenticates validity of the subject person based on an index representing a degree of similarity between the biometrics information of the dictionary stored in the storage unit and the acquired biometrics information. A dictionary management unit updates the dictionary based on the acquired biometrics information in a first case where the index represents a degree of the similarity higher than a first threshold value, and otherwise creates a new dictionary based on the acquired biometrics information and stores the created new dictionary in the storage unit, in a second case where the index represents a degree of the similarity lower than the first threshold value and higher than a second threshold value which is set lower than the first threshold value.

Abstract: A parallel resonant circuit is realized by stacking first to fourth wiring patterns each having at least an inductance element. One of the adjacent first and second wiring patterns is set to a signal input node and the other thereof is set to a signal output node. Then, the signal input node is connected to the signal output node via inductance elements of the first wiring pattern, third wiring pattern, fourth wiring pattern and second wiring pattern in order. By adjacently forming wiring layers of the signal input and output nodes, a capacitance value between the input and output nodes is increased compared to that when they are separated. Also, by increasing the line width of the first and second wiring patterns, the capacitance value can be further increased. Therefore, it is possible to achieve a large capacitance value in a small area and downsizing of the electronic device.
