Patent EP-1488509-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ZELLWEGER EMIL
IPC: H03D3/00
Filed: 2002-08-01
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de conversion de fréquence d'un signal radiofréquence (3) produisant des signaux complexes intermédiaires (FI) pour un étage de corrélation d'un récepteur RF de faible puissance. Pour ce faire, le dispositif comprend un premier filtre passe-bande sélectif (12) destiné à filtrer les signaux radiofréquence captés par une antenne (2). Un synthétiseur de fréquence (20 à 25) produit des premiers et des seconds signaux haute fréquence, la fréquence des premiers signaux étant supérieure à la fréquence des seconds signaux. Ce synthétiseur reçoit des signaux de référence en provenance d'une unité d'oscillateur (26 à 29). Une première unité de mélangeur (14) mélange les signaux radiofréquence avec les premiers signaux en vue de produire des signaux convertis en fréquence. Un second filtre passe-bande (15) filtre les signaux en provenance de la première unité de mélangeur, et fournit des signaux à une seconde unité de mélangeur (16) en vue de les mélanger avec les seconds signaux haute fréquence. Finalement, une unité de mise en forme (17, 18, 19) pour les signaux fournis par la seconde unité de mélangeur produit les signaux intermédiaires. Le second filtre est un filtre actif relativement peu sélectif intégré dans un circuit intégré RF/FI (10) avec lesdites première et seconde unités de mélangeur, l'unité de mise en forme de signaux et certaines parties du synthétiseur et de l'unité d'oscillateur.

Title: Apparatus with compliant electrical terminals, and methods for forming same
Inventor: LUTZ MICHAEL A
IPC: H01L21/60
Filed: 2002-08-12
Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed including an electrical conductor and an electrically conductive, compliant bump formed on the electrical conductor. The compliant bump includes an electrically conductive, solderable capping layer and an electrically conductive, compliant body positioned between the solderable capping layer and the electrical conductor. The compliant body electrically couples the solderable capping layer to the electrical conductor. The electrical conductor may be, for example, an input/output (I/O) pad of the apparatus, and the compliant bump may form an electrical terminal of the apparatus. The compliant body forms a mechanically flexible, electrically conductive path between the solderable capping layer and the electrical conductor. The compliant bump deforms elastically when subjected to a force exerted between the solderable capping layer and the electrical conductor, allowing the compliant bump to form a highly reliable connection between the apparatus and an external element. Several embodiments of the compliant bump, and methods for forming the compliant bump, are presented.

Abstract: Upon reception of four GPS signals from GPS satellites and determining four pseudo ranges, along with ephemeris data previously stored in the GPS receiver, the location of the GPS receiver and real time clock time error is determined. The GPS receiver is in possession of four pseudo ranges and determines four unknown coordinate values (x, y, x, and time) identifying the location of the GPS receiver and real time clock error. The process of solving for four pseudo range formulas simultaneously with each pseudo range formula having an unknown "x", "y", "z", and time coordinates of the GPS receiver, results in identification of the coordinates and time of the GPS receiver. In a similar process, the GPS receiver receiving four GPS signals from four GPS satellites is able to determine four pseudo ranges. Using the four peudo ranges, four pseudo range equations unknown values for "x", "y", "z" and time can be solved for simultaneously. The resulting values are then used to verify that the calculated positions of the GPS satellites are within 0.5 ms of the previous solution. If the GPS satellites are within 0.5 ms range of the prior solution then the real time clock error is estimated. Thus, using ephemeris data, the location of the GPS receiver is determined in a fraction of the time it takes to acquire the GPS satellites using conventional approaches.

Abstract: A detachable pellicle is proposed to improve and simplify the process of
production of slabs made of marble agglomerate. In particular, the heating
system for heating the material to be polymerized is simplified and the
removal of the protective is facilitated at the end of the baking phase and
before the start of the subsequent slab working phase. 
     The present invention refers to the union of a detachable polypropylene
pellicle, which can take various forms, or a silicone polyester pellicle with at
least an aluminium sheet or a tin sheet or a copper sheet or a sheet made
of another conductive metal that can be reduced to a thin sheet. 
     The conductive metal sheet, which conducts electricity, can have a
difference in electric potential in certain points so that it is possible to reach
the start temperature that starts the exothermic reaction of polymerization
with or without pressure.

Abstract: The invention provides a traffic shaper module allocates more bandwidth to real-time data in wireless TCP/IP networks where accessible bandwidth is limited. This is particular relevant for IEEE 802.11b networks. For downstream data, the traffic shaper module can be set to control the transmission to all clients and thereby give priority to the port carrying real-time data. For the upstream case, data transmission from all kinds of standard devices is to be reduced or delayed. Hence, the data transmissions from other clients have to be controlled remotely from the access point. By delaying or discarding packets, such as TCP acknowledgements, to other clients, the traffic shaper module artificially increases their Round Trip Time (RTT). The protocol at these clients responds to the increased RTT by transmitting data at a lower rate, thereby leaving more bandwidth for the real-time data port.
