Title: Sonar actif a selection adaptative des canaux
Inventor: FEINTUCH PAUL L
IPC: G01S15/10
Filed: 1988-01-14
Granted: 1994-03-16
Abstract: Avec le sonar actif (10) à sélection adaptative des canaux, la forme d'onde de transmission du sonar est sélectionnée de manière adaptative d'après la fonction mesurée de diffusion des canaux du sonar pour réduire la réponse du sonar à des réverbérations indésirées tout en conservant la réponse aux signaux de retour. Ceci permet d'améliorer la détectabilité de la cible du sonar par rapport à des systèmes sonars qui ne s'adaptent pas aux propriétes variables du canal océanique. Le sonar peut fonctionner suivant deux modes, le mode de mesure du canal et le mode actif normal. Dans le mode de mesure du canal, des signaux de sondage sont transmis pour tester la réponse du canal. A partir des signaux de réception du sonar résultant des signaux du sondage transmis, la fonction de diffusion du canal est estimée. La forme d'onde de transmission pour le mode actif du sonar est ensuite conçue pour obtenir une forme d'onde dont la fonction d'ambiguïté chevauche de manière minime la fonction de diffusion du canal estimée. Il résulte de la sélection de forme d'onde que la réponse du sonar à la réverbération est réduite tout en maintenant la réponse de la cible du sonar.

Abstract: Un connecteur de fibres optiques duplex (20) comprend un boîtier (21) possédant une extrémité comportant une entrée de câble et une extrémité enfichable. A l'extrémité comportant une entrée de câble, un câble à fibre optique (23) comprenant deux fibres optiques à tampons individuels (25-25), un fil servant d'élément résistant (29) et une chemise en plastique sont acheminés dans l'extrémite à rebord d'une douille (45) traversée par un passage conique. La douille est supportée dans une base (22) du boîtier. La chemise est éliminée sur le câble qui s'étend de l'extrémité d'entrée de câble jusqu'à l'extrémité enfichable et le fil est positionné entre deux surfaces tronconiques adaptables essentiellement lisses qui définissent le passages de la douille et une cale tronconique (50) qui pénètre dans le passage. La cale compred un alésage le long duquel s'étendent les fibres optiques. Cet agencement de verrouillage dans lequel le fil ne forme pas de spires rétrofléchies est encore renforcé lorsque des forces de traction sont appliquées au câble. Sur l'extrémité enfichable sont montées deux fiches (70-70) constituant chacune la terminaison des fibres optiques. Chaque fiche est sollicitée par un ressort, et d'autres parties terminales des fiches qui font saillie au-delà du boîtier du conducteur sont protégées par un butoir (90), également à ressort, qui se déplace vers l'intérieur lorsque le connecteur est relié à un autre connecteur. Un couvercle (52) est monté sur la base pour compléter le boîtier et y maintenir les organes de transfert de forces et les fiches.

Abstract: Un système d'affichage optique compact, peu coûteux et pouvant être produit en masse, pour véhicules automobiles, crée une image virtuelle multicolore agrandie, nette et bien visible, agréable et aux contrastes marqués, d'un groupe de cadrans primaires à une distance de vision qui est supérieure à la distance optique effective séparant le tableau de bord et les yeux du conducteur de façon à améliorer la lisibilité des cadrans, à réduire au minimum les fatigues oculaires chez le conducteur et à réduire les problèmes de focalisation oculaire qui sont associés au passage d'une vision éloignée utilisée pour regarder la route à une vision rapprochée utilisée pour jeter un regard rapide aux cadrans. Un système d'affichage à formation non-pupillaire utilise un seul miroir asphérique désaxé qui a la capacité de créer une image virtuelle d'une source d'image passive multicolor et miniaturisé, tel qu'un panneau d'affichage à cristaux liquides segmenté, source qui est éclairée par l'arrière par une petite ampoule lumineuse incandescente à filament. La surface asphérique est optimisée de façon à réduire au minimum les aberrations et de façon à réduire toute disparité verticale et toute courbure du champ. La source d'image est distordue au préalable pour compenser la distorsion présente dans la configuration des accès. Un élément d'écran à diffusion holographique, disposé en couche sur la source d'image, offre une luminosité uniforme de niveau élevé et un contraste uniforme sur tout le champ de vision qui est visible depuis une élipse oculaire suffisante pour s'adapter à la plupart des conducteurs, réduit au minimum l'impact visuel de n'importe quelle aberration optique à proximité du bord de la zone de vision et confère au système à formation non-pupillaire certaines des propriétés optiques souhaitables d'un système à formation pupillaire. L'ampoule incandescente est positionnée à un emplacement éloigné choisi de façon à réduire au minimum la production de chaleur dans la région de la source d'image et de façon à faciliter le remplacement de l'ampoule en cas de panne. La lumière émise par ampoule est recueillie et focalisée dans l'ouverture d'un faisceau de fibres optiques qui se divisent en un certain nombre d'extrémités à l'arrière du panneau d'affichage à cristaux liquides. Les réflexions ambiantes sont réduites et régulées par un écran anti-éblouissement incurvé et incliné et par une trappe à lumière de surface noire.

Abstract: In a known method, an additional identical data packet is generated with each data packet, all data packets are subjected to a multi-level coding process and the information items associated with one line and present several times are recorded mutually offset in time on different helical tracks of a recording medium. During the playback of data packets recorded in this manner, the information in each case recorded on the other track, can be evaluated instead of the disturbed information in the case of a dropout. In this known method, coding is necessary on the recording side and decoding of the data packets is necessary on the replay side. The novel method is intended to manage without recording-side coding and without replay-side decoding of the data packets. In the novel method, each additional data packet is recorded in time-division multiplex with the data packets and the picture information of a preceding line. Recording and replay of wide band signals such as satellite television and/or HDTV signals.

Abstract: A method for the rapid preparation of a whole blood sample for photooptical analysis. A whole blood sample, lytic reagent system and stain are contacted in a reaction vessel with gentle, asymmetric vortex mixing. This method conserves the endogenous constituents of the sample, since the preparation of the sample occurs within a common vessel and any excess, unconsumed or unreacted, reagents and stain are not separated from the sample during preparation; thus avoiding the multiple wash steps traditionally employed. The lytic agent preferably is acidic and stromatolyzes the erythrocyte fraction of the whole blood, leaving the leukocyte sub-populations in an unlysed, near native state. The lysing can occur, before, simultaneous with, or after the staining in an elapsed time of 90 seconds or less.

Abstract: A method for detecting the presence or the dimensions or the correct position of a workpiece (16), which is clamped in the main chucking device (15) of a numerically controlled machine tool, relative to which a constructional part (19) is arranged displaceably, a desired position value (3) being predetermined for a displacement of the constructional part (19) in the direction of the workpiece (16), and the actual position value (11) of the constructional part (19) being continuously determined iteratively, is to be developed in such a way that the desired determination is possible at a lower outlay. This is achieved in that the desired position value (3) for the displaceable constructional part (19) is selected so that, in the absence of a workpiece (16,28), a stop (17,27) for the workpiece (16,28), said stop being an integral part of the displaceable constructional part (19), would be moved to a location which, in the presence of a workpiece (16,28), is within this, and in that a signal is generated when the difference between two successively determined actual position values (11) falls below a predetermined limit value and the desired position value (3) is not reached.
