Patent EP-0913972-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SAKODA KAZUYUKI
IPC: H04W28/00
Filed: 1998-10-29
Abstract: The present invention makes it possible to transmit data while reducing the
influence of fading caused on a transmission path. When communication data is
transmitted (7) by using a plurality of subcarriers arranged with a predetermined
bandwidth, a data block consisting of a plurality of subcarriers arranged in rows in a
time axis direction is used as a data unit. By implementing both a differential
modulation process based on each phase difference in the frequency axis direction
between a plurality of subcarriers and a differential modulation process (21) based on
each phase difference in the time axis direction between a plurality of subcarriers, a
transmission signal with symbol data superposed on each phase difference between a
plurality of subcarriers is generated and output.

Abstract: A liquid discharge head comprises a pair of
substrates mutually fixed in lamination, a plurality of
liquid flow paths arranged on the bonded faces of the
substrates, the leading end of the plural liquid flow
paths being communicated with a plurality of discharge
ports, a plurality of heat generating members arranged
on at least one of the substrates corresponding to each
of the liquid flow paths and a movable member having in
the liquid flow path the free end thereof on the
discharge port side, and a region between the heat
generating member and the movable member, where liquid
exists. In the liquid discharge head, a bubble is
created by enabling thermal energy generated by the
heat generating members to act upon the liquid, and the
bubble is controlled by the movable member to discharge
liquid in the liquid flow paths from the discharge
ports to the outside. Further, all of the movable
members, members becoming side walls of liquid flow
paths, members supporting the movable members, and
members supporting the walls of liquid flow paths are
formed by materials containing silicon and the side
walls of liquid flow paths are formed by patterning the
material containing silicon formed on the surface of
one of the pair of substrates in the liquid discharge
head.

IPC: H01L21/68
Filed: 1998-01-29
Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring a reference sample in order to
collect a reference characteristic, without moving the reference sample, is
disclosed. In one embodiment, the method of the present invention
comprises the following steps. An operator places a cassette of unprocessed
wafers into a processing chamber of a processing tool that also includes a
holding chamber (400). While the wafers are being processed, the holding
chamber, which is coupled to a measurement tool, measures the reference
sample (403) that is mounted on a stage (401) in the holding chamber. The resulting
reference characteristic value (e.g., spectrum to determine film thickness) is
then stored in the measurement tool's computer system. After a film is
grown/formed on the wafers, the processed wafers are moved one by one into
the holding chamber to be measured. A first wafer (502) is placed on the stage (401) in
the holding chamber and a characteristic value for the first processed wafer is
obtained using the measurement tool. The computer system of the
measurement tool uses an algorithm to compare the reference characteristic
value to the first wafer characteristic value to obtain a first differential value.
The first differential value is then used to help determine the characteristic
(e.g., film thickness) of the film formed on the first processed wafer. In
another embodiment, a similar process is followed to measure another
characteristic of a wafer, such as resistivity. These examples are illustrative
and not limiting. Thus, the present invention can be used whenever a
reference sample is to be measured to help determine a selected characteristic
of a substrate or wafer.

the vertical out of the plane of the heating surface (20). The yarn path through the cooling
device (19, 39) is curved, either along a curved track (19) or helically around the surface of a

Abstract: A local positioning system (LPS) uses the radio
propagation parameters in a CDMA forward link or TDMA
reverse link to establish a mobile station's position.
The mobile station receives pilot channel signals from at
least three distinct base stations and records the PN chip
offset of the pilot channel signals. The LPS time
difference of arrival triangulation approach requires no
additional signal detection capabilities. Base stations
send out pilot channel signals that arrive at a mobile
station with a particular phase and at least a
predetermined minimum strength. The mobile station
reports back the "visible" pilot channel signals, their
phases and signal strength to the LPS which uses a
location non-linear system, expressed as a set of cost
functions, to estimate the mobile location. The LPS can
also solve the 9-1-1 mobile location problem for wireless
CDMA systems by determining the position of a person in
distress that has a digital cellular phone.
