Title: Method and apparatus for transmitting data
Inventor: KAWAI NOBUYUKI
IPC: H04W8/12
Filed: 1996-07-31
Abstract: Data relating to the status of users 12 in a mobile communications system is broadcast via satellite 8 from a network register 4 to local registers 10 a-c in an HDLC format. Each of the local registers requests retransmission of any HDLC frames which are incorrectly received. The network register records the earliest transmitted frame not yet acknowledged by all of the local registers and inhibits transmission of new frames if they fall outside a transmission window relative to the earliest transmitted frame. The network register polls the local registers for retransmission requests and the local registers also send unsolicited requests to the network register. The network register only retransmits a frame once if multiple requests for that frame are transmitted within a predetermined period. When a new local register enters the broadcast reception group, the network register informs the new local register which new frame will next be transmitted. The number of bits used for frame sequence numbers is greater than that defined in the HDLC protocols.

Title: Radiation field analyzer
Inventor: JENKINS RICHARD MICHAEL
IPC: G01S17/02
Filed: 1997-01-22
Abstract: A radiation field analyzer (10) provides means for analyzing the spatial mode spectrum of radiation received from a scene. In a multimode waveguide embodiment, light from a laser (24) is directed towards a scene through an alumina waveguide structure (12). A portion of the laser light is directed towards a mode generator (28) which selectively converts the laser radiation into one of a series of modes. Laser light returning from the scene is mixed- with the light from the mode generator to produce interference signals. These signals are measured by a detector (34) and analysed by a programmed computer (36). By sequentially altering the mode generated by the generator (28) and analyzing the resulting signals, a spectrum of the modes returning from the scene is obtained.

Patent GB-2341965-A (GB)
Title: Pattern recognition
Inventor: LEWIS MEIRION FRANCIS
IPC: G06V10/88
Filed: 1998-09-24
Abstract: Apparatus for detecting the presence of one or more images of a known kind in a scene comprises a camera 10 which passes a capture image to a first electronic processing means to produce a scene pattern corresponding to a Fourier transform of the scene image. This pattern is then digitally combined with one or more reference patterns corresponding to Fourier transforms of a reference image. The resulting combined patterns are then used to modulate a beam of light which may be focused 18 to perform an inverse Fourier transform providing correlation information. In a preferred arrangement, the combined pattern is displayed on a spatial light modulator 15. A "smart" spatial light modulator comprises an array of light modulating devices, each device comprising a detector and at least one pixel, whereby light incident upon the detector produces an output signal which is adapted to control the state of the modulating medium. By suitable processing, the "smart" SLM may either attenuate light below a certain intensity or only light above a certain intensity to act as a saturable absorber.
Patent GB-2346735-A (GB)
Title: Separate confinement heterostructure laser
Inventor: NAJDA STEPHEN PETER
IPC: H01S5/20
Filed: 1999-02-13
Abstract: An SCH laser device fabricated in the (Al,Ga,In)P system has an active region (13) disposed within an optical guiding region (12, 14). The optical guiding region (12,14) is disposed between an n-doped cladding region (11) and a p-doped cladding region (15). Optical confinement layers (16, 17), are disposed at the interfaces between the optical guiding region (12, 14) and the cladding regions (11, 15). The optical confinement regions produce increased confinement of the optical field, and reduce the penetration of the optical field into the cladding regions. The optical confinement region (17) on the p-side of the device also serves as a potential barrier to the transport of electrons into the p-doped cladding region (15). The cladding regions (11,15) have a low Al mole fraction, so that they have a direct bandgap. This prevents carrier loss by trapping in the DX level in the cladding regions. In an alternative embodiment, the cladding regions have a graded composition, with their composition at the interface with the optical confinement layers (16, 17) being such that the DX level in the cladding regions is degenerate with the X-conduction band in the optical confinement layers (16, 17). The energy of the DX level in the cladding region is greater than the Fermi level in the cladding region, and the energy of the DX level increases away from the optical guide region.

Title: Differential pressure switch having an isolated hall effect sensor
Inventor: TYLISZ BRIAN M
IPC: H01H35/34
Filed: 1999-04-15
Abstract: The switch comprises an enclosure including a peripheral wall 18 and a partition wall 24. A sensor chamber 30 is located on one side of the partition wall and a fluid cavity 31 is located on another side of the partition wall. The partition wall 24 and the peripheral wall 18 seal the sensor chamber 30 in fluid tight isolation from the fluid cavity 31. A flexible diaphragm 32 within the fluid cavity forms a low-pressure fluid chamber 38 on one side and a high-pressure fluid chamber 40 on a second side of the diaphragm. A magnet 72 located in the fluid cavity 31 is coupled to the diaphragm such that the magnet changes position in response to movement of the diaphragm. A Hall effect sensor 100 located in the sensor chamber 30 senses the magnetic force generated by the magnet 72 and thereby detects the distance between the magnet and the sensor which is indicative of the pressure differential between the fluid in the low- and high-pressure chambers.
Patent GB-2350184-A (GB)
Title: Apparatus and method to measure wavelength
Inventor: LI LUKSUN
IPC: G01J9/00
Filed: 1999-05-19
Abstract: An incident beam of light is initially divided into at least two beams. A first beam enters a wavelength measuring device (WMD) and a first signal is produced indicative of the wavelength. A second beam passes through an electro-optical modulator (EOM) and then through a delay fibre which imparts a wavelength dependent delay to the beam. A receiver then outputs a second signal and the two signals are used to determine the wavelength of the light. In a second embodiment, the light from the beam divider or the modulator is incident upon an optical device under test (DUT) and a third signal is produced. An optical characteristic of the DUT is then determined, based on the first, second and third signals.

Title: Ring made from flaky graphite foil and method for producing same
Inventor: GENTHE GUENTHER
IPC: F16J15/20
Filed: 1992-05-28
Abstract: In a method for producing rings consisting of pure graphite films, a graphite film strip is wound concentrically onto the core of a mould and is subsequently compressed in the axial direction. A cut which is oblique or is located parallel to the axial direction is subsequently carried out. During the compression, the graphite film strips are displaced within predetermined limits in the axial and radial directions of the ring which is to be pressed, which leads to a Z-shaped or multiple Z-shaped folding of the layers formed from the graphite film strips. After production of the cut through the pressed ring, the cut ends are preferably drawn apart from one another in the axial direction by an amount which corresponds approximately to the internal diameter of the ring, and the ring is subsequently subjected to a second pressing process. <IMAGE>
