Title: Digital signal processing (DSP) techniques for FT-IR multiple modulation measurements using a photoelastic modulator (PEM)
Inventor: CURBELO RAUL
IPC: G01N21/27
Filed: 1998-08-06
Abstract: Digital signal processing (DSP) techniques for performing multiple modulation measurements with a polarization photoelastic modulator (PEM) in a step-scanning FT-IR spectrometer. The frequency and phase of the PEM drive signal are extracted from the digitized data collected for the actual measurement. This can then be used to perform the desired analysis of the polarization signals (e.g., CD, LD, DIRLD). This is accomplished by successively refining an initial estimate of the PEM frequency (typically starting at the nominal PEM frequency   l  <SB>0</SB>, or at the value determined from the previous step). This is done by using the current estimate of the PEM frequency to compute a phase error, and then using the computed phase error to refine the estimate of the PEM frequency. The phase errors are computed using different sets of samples in the sampling interval.

Title: Recognition of a first unit by a second unit, using a truly random set of data
Inventor: SAMBATI MIKE
IPC: G06F21/44
Filed: 2001-05-10
Abstract: Identification system for use in a system where one unit must be sure of the identity of another unit with which it communicates, the units ranging from portable scanner applications (shown), smartcards and remote car locking applications (Figs. 7-9) , to mobile telephones and high security telephone or data links. The first unit keeps a first unit current record, which it communicates to the second unit for storage, of its activities since it last connected to the second unit. These activities are random and unpredictable, e.g. a record of the bar codes that have been scanned by a scanner, or the running count of a free running clock in the first unit at the time of connection. The first unit also keeps a first unit past record, which it also communicates to the second unit for comparison, of its activities up to the time it last connected to the second unit. If the second unit sees a match between its previously stored first unit current record and the just received first unit past record, it recognises the first unit.

Title: Digital interpolation and frequency conversion in predistortion and feedforward power amplifier linearisers
Inventor: MEADE STEVEN ANTHONY
IPC: H03F1/32
Filed: 2001-06-15
Abstract: The digital input signal to a digital predistorter or feedforward lineariser is interpolated 28 to double the effective sampling rate and then frequency converted 36-44 to an intermediate frequency. The intermediate frequency may be at double the input frequency or may be at baseband. The interpolation and frequency conversion gives the digital signal a sampling rate and bandwidth suitable for accommodating the increased signal bandwidth caused by predistortion. The interpolation also reduces the sampling rate requirements for the analog-to-digital convener (ADC) at the system input.
Patent GB-2378069-A (GB)
Title: Vertically integrated optical transmitter and receiver
Inventor: TOMLINSON ANDREW MICHAEL
IPC: H04B10/40
Filed: 2001-07-12
Abstract: An optical transceiver having an integrated structure comprises a substrate 1, a VCSEL 2 on the substrate 1 to transmit an optical signal of a first wavelength in a first direction along an optical path, and a reception photodiode 6 integrated with the VCSEL 2 on the substrate 1 to detect an optical signal of a second wavelength, which is different to the first wavelength, travelling along the optical path in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The VCSEL 2 and the reception photodiode 6 are positioned in sequence along the optical path and one of the devices, for example the photodiode 6, is adapted to allow one of the optical signals to pass through it in its passage along the optical path. The fact that the two devices are integrated in this manner, either by being grown on a common substrate or by flip-chip bonding, means that such an optical transceiver is capable of bidirectional optical communication over a single optical fibre without requiring the use of additional optical components to increase coupling efficiency to the optical fibre. This renders further components on the substrate unnecessary, and enables the transceiver to be produced at very low cost.

Title: Fuel vapour purge control system for vehicles with i.c. engines
Inventor: MANCINI DOUGLAS JOSEPH
IPC: F02D41/14
Filed: 2001-07-20
Abstract: The engine 200, fuel tank 210 and vapour storage device, eg carbon canister, 230 are connected in a thee-way connection via a valve assembly 300 such that the engine can be selectively isolated by a purge control valve 270 and the fuel tank 210 can be selectively isolated by a fuel tank control valve 250. The operation of both valves 250, 270 is co-ordinated by an electronic controller 120 eg fuel vapour storage is enabled when the pressure inside the fuel tank exceeds a predetermined value and fuel vapour purging is enabled when the controller senses (eg from the end of the engine adaptive learning cycle, ambient temperature, barometric pressure etc) that conditions for purging are met. By isolating the fuel tank during purging of the carbon canister, vapour spikes into the engine are eliminated, thus preventing engine stalls. Also, the durability of the canister is improved because the vapours are repeatedly stored and purged in opposite directions. The system is particularly suitable for DISI (direct injection spark ignition) or HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) engines which require a shorter fuel vapour purge cycle.
