Abstract: A liquid discharge head unit is positioned in high precision when mounted on the carriage of a liquid discharge recording apparatus. For the liquid discharge head unit, a side extrusion formed in column, which is rotatively supported in carriage, presses the upper surface of guide ribs formed on both side ends on the upper rear portion. This upper surface is made higher toward the rear side in order to effectuate the substantially horizontal movement of the pressurized position from the front side to the rear side. Then, the liquid discharge head unit is rotated around the side extrusion formed in column so as to be mounted on the carriage smoothly. Lastly, a guide pin, a rear extrusion, and a lower extrusion are allowed to abut against the corresponding portions of the carriage by means of pressure exerted on a receiving rib in order to perform positioning in the front, rear, left, right, up and down directions exactly. Also, by means of pressure exerted on the side face, the side extrusion is allowed to abut against the corresponding portion of the carriage to position the circumference of the guide pin in the rotational direction. <IMAGE>

Abstract: RF power amplifier distortion can be accurately measured in the presence of multi-frequency input signals, by using a swept local oscillator to tune RF input and output receivers. The power detected by the input receiver is compared with a threshold associated with the carrier. Whenever the power detected by the input receiver exceeds the threshold-indicating that the input receiver is tuned on carrier energy-the signal path through the output receiver is blanked. The sweeping action combined with selective blanking of the output receiver creates an adaptive notch filter, which allows for the direct measurement of low level distortion power in the presence of high power carriers. This distortion power is digitized and can be processed to control pre-distortion correction circuitry or gain/phase adjustment circuitry of a feed-forward error correction loop.

Abstract: A methodology for process modeling and control and the software system implementation of this methodology, which includes a rigorous, nonlinear process simulation model, the generation of appropriate linear models derived from the rigorous model, and an adaptive, linear model predictive controller (MPC) that utilizes the derived linear models. A state space, multivariable, model predictive controller (MPC) is the preferred choice for the MPC since the nonlinear simulation model is analytically translated into a set of linear state equations and thus simplifies the translation of the linearized simulation equations to the modeling format required by the controller. Various other MPC modeling forms such as transfer functions, impulse response coefficients, and step response coefficients may also be used. The methodology is very general in that any model predictive controller using one of the above modeling forms can be used as the controller. The methodology also includes various modules that improve reliability and performance. For example, there is a data pretreatment module used to pre-process the plant measurements for gross error detection. A data reconciliation and parameter estimation module is then used to correct for instrumentation errors and to adjust model parameters based on current operating conditions. The full-order state space model can be reduced by the order reduction module to obtain fewer states for the controller model. Automated MPC tuning is also provided to improve control performance.
