Abstract: Described is a transmission system ( 10 ) for transmitting an information signal ( 21 ) via a plurality of subchannels from a transmitter ( 12 ) to a receiver ( 16 ). The transmitter ( 12 ) comprises a demultiplexer ( 20 ) for demultiplexing the information signal ( 21 ) into a plurality of information subsignals ( 23 ). The transmitter ( 12 ) further comprises a channel encoder ( 8 ) for encoding the information subsignals ( 23 ) into encoded information subsignals ( 25 ). Each encoded information subsignal ( 25 ) is transmitted via one of the subchannels to the receiver ( 16 ). The receiver ( 16 ) comprises a channel decoder for successively decoding the received encoded information subsignals. The transmission system ( 10 ) is characterized in that the demultiplexer ( 20 ) is arranged for demultiplexing the information signal ( 21 ) into a plurality of partly overlapping information subsignals ( 23 ) comprising shared and non-shared information elements. For each subsignal ( 23 ) a distribution of the shared information elements is adapted to the throughput of the subchannels as ordered by the receiver ( 16 ). The channel decoder is arranged for decoding a received encoded information subsignal by incorporating shared information elements of already decoded information subsignals. In this way, the transmission system can achieve a maximum througput.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble de circuits et un procédé permettant de fournir une sécurité de données. Cet ensemble de circuits contient au moins un processeur et au moins un circuit de stockage. L'invention est fondée sur l'idée selon laquelle cet ensemble de circuits est tel qu'un processeur peut fonctionner au moins dans deux modes différents, un premier mode de fonctionnement sécurisé et un second mode de fonctionnement non sécurisé. Dans le mode de fonctionnement sécurisé, le processeur a accès à des données associées à la sécurité, situées dans des mémoires variées situées à l'intérieur de l'ensemble de circuits. L'accès à ces données de sécurité et leur traitement doivent être restreints, puisque si un intrus avait accès à ces données de sécurité, il pourrait manipuler l'ensemble de circuits. Lors de tests et/ou de débogage de l'ensemble de circuits, l'accès aux informations de sécurité n'est pas autorisé. Pour cette raison, le processeur est placé dans le mode de fonctionnement non sécurisé, dans lequel mode l'accès aux données protégées n'est plus autorisé.

Abstract: A system for controlling gain of an optical amplifier that is disposed in a WDM optical communication network for amplifying an input WDM signal to produce a corresponding amplified output WDM signal is operative for measuring average optical powers of the input WDM signal over first and second wavebands, each covering a wavelength range that includes at least one wavelength channel of the WDM network and is operative for measuring the average optical powers of the amplified output WDM signal over the first and second wavebands. The system further determines gain values over the first and second wavebands from the average input and output powers and adjusts a variable of the optical amplifier to ensure that the difference between the gain values is maintained to within a predetermined value thereby ensuring a substantially flat gain slope profile.

Abstract: In an ultrasonic bonding method that bonds a material to a bonding surface by the application of ultrasonic vibration, both side faces of the material in the direction of ultrasonic vibration are clamped by an application member that applies a predetermined ultrasonic vibration, and by a clamping member. The clamping member is synchronously vibrated by ultrasonic vibration transmitted through the material from the application member, and the material is bonded to the bonding surface while being pressed against the application member and against the bonding surface. In this method, high bonding quality can be achieved by efficiently transmitting ultrasonic vibration from the application member to a material to be bonded, and the material can be prevented from tilting, cracking, chipping, or the like without being subjected to a special working operation, for example, forming of a chamfered portion. <IMAGE>
