Abstract: A communication protocol for the transmission of data, for instance in a master-slave
structure comprising at least a master unit and a slave unit. The data to
be transmitted are contained in frames and/or packages comprising several
fields. The communication protocol allows to unambiguously recognize the
beginning and the end of the frames of data by selecting at least two predefined
symbols along those belonging to the protocol for identifying the start and the
end of a frame. Moreover, said two preselected symbols are given another
function than identifying the beginning and the end of a frame when opportunely
preceded by a third preselected symbol. Accordingly, the two preselected
symbols unambiguously identifying the beginning and the end of a frame when
used singularly but can be used for other purposes than identifying the
beginning and the end of a frame when used in combination with the third
preselected symbol.

Abstract: A signal receiver and a method for separating a RDS signal component from a
received signal is described. After the received signal has been downconverted to
the baseband, the baseband signal is split up into a first baseband signal for a
first signal path and a second baseband signal for a second signal path. The first
baseband signal is highpass filtered and forwarded to a frequency synchronization
unit that generates a frequency synchronization carrier. The second baseband
signal is modified in accordance with the frequency synchronization carrier provided
by the first signal path, and a synchronized baseband signal is obtained
that still comprises the full range of the RDS signal's spectral components.

Abstract: The releasable linking unit (10) has a hook control portion that has a guide mechanism for guiding a hook between locked position and unlocked position. The guide mechanism is designed to bias two supports against one another when the hook is fully displaced into locking position. When in locked position, the hook is engaged in a catch component. When in unlocked position, the hook is released from the catch component. The guide mechanism has a link mounted to articulate relative to the second support about a first axis, and on which the hook is articulated about a second axis. The two axes are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the displacement direction. The second axis is located on either side of a dead center point when the hook is in locked position. When the hook is in unlocked position, the dead center point is disposed opposite the first axis relative to the catch component. The hook has a portion that cooperates with the catch component, and is joined to the second support. The two supports are fixed to the frame (4) and roof (6) of a motor vehicle (2), and applied one against the other when the roof and frame are linked. An Independent claim is included for the motor vehicle.

Abstract: An optical system (7) presenting chromatic aberrations is placed in front of the outlet end of the excitation fiber optic and the inlet end of the reception fiber optic to simultaneously optimize a focussing of the excitation light on the target and receipt of the ray of fluorescence by the reception fiber optic. <??>The excitation fibre optic transmits an excitation light produced by a luminous source to excite the fluorescence of an appropriate target. It has an outlet end (32) with a certain optical axis and is fixed to a first support (1). The receptor fiber optic receives a ray of fluorescence emitted by the irradiated target. It has an inlet end (22) with an optical axis parallel to that of the outlet end of the excitation fibre optic and is fixed to the first support. The optical system is fixed to a second support (6) mounted to move relative to the first support to allow the separation or approach of the optical system to the optical fibres. The optical system is a lens with a refractive index gradient, decreasing from the excitation outlet optical axis to the reception inlet optical axis. The first support is a cylindrical section (11) with a central axis in which at least two transverse positions are made to receive the ends of the two optical fibres and hold them parallel to the axis of the cylinder. The second support has a base with a transverse opening in which the optical system is positioned. The base also has an annular wall designed to receive the cylindrical section of the first support by screwing together. The excitation optical fiber is placed along the central axis of the first support and a number of reception optical fibers are placed at equal distances around it. The optical fibers are fixed to the positions in the first support by gluing. The first support is made of metal.

Abstract: The invention is concerned with a method for controlling the transmission power for a
session in a system for transmitting data via a telephone line by using a digital
subscriber line between a user terminal and a central unit. In the method, the
transmission power is increased or decreased between given limit values so that the
power is kept as low as possible, while still providing sufficient transmission quality. The
quality criteria according to which the transmission power is controlled consists of the
value of the Signal to Noise Ratio (S/N), and the number of bit errors BER within a
given time interval.

Abstract: Mixtures of fructose and lactose are useful for reducing caloric intake and glycemic index for individuals who are overweight, glucose-impaired, diabetic, or who just consume too large a fraction of their calories from 'added sugars'. The fructose/lactose sweetener is included in the daily diet as a one-for-one replacement for 'added sugars' in various edible formulations without sacrificing quality of taste. Sucrose can be used as a replacement for all or part of the fructose in the claimed sweetener to increase sweetness or improve certain functional properties without substantially changing caloric value. The claimed mixtures of fully-caloric sugars work synergistically to reduce available calories and blood sugar concentration. Specifically, fructose interferes strongly with normal small-intestinal absorption of lactose and interferes moderately with sucrose absorption, while lactose interferes with normal small-intestinal absorption of both sucrose and starch. Unabsorbed di- and oligosaccharides pass into the colon and cause increased growth of healthful bacteria, making the new sweetener useful as a prebiotic. No gastrointestinal symptoms of sugar intolerance were observed when the claimed sugar mixtures were ingested at normal dietary levels.
