Abstract: A projection clock (1) is described, comprising a housing (2) with an emission opening
(7) for a light beam (14). The housing (2) comprises at least a light source (10), a clock
with a reflecting dial (11), and a lens (16). During operation of the projection clock (1),
a light beam (14) coming from the light source (10) is at least reflected by the rflecting
dial (11) of the clock and then issues from the housing via the lens (16). The housing (2)
is further provided with at least one light-directing member (12). The mutual positions
of the light source (10), the reflecting dial (11) of the clock, the light-directing member
(12), and the lens (16) are such that the light beam (14) is reflected both by the
reflecting dial (11) of the clock and by the light-directing member (12) before this light
beam (14) leaves the housing via the lens (16).

Abstract: A coding is carried out by designating the reference number of a partial sequence having the maximum length coincidence from the coded partial sequences registered in a dictionary with regard to a received character sequence, designating a new reference number to a partial sequence which is obtained by adding one character to a reference number obtained as a code word, and registering the new reference number designated partial sequence in the dictionary. A decoding is carried out by searching partial sequences registered in the dictionary using a code word represented by the reference number of the partial sequence, designating a new reference number to a partial sequence which is obtained by adding the beginning character of the currently restored partial sequence to the previously processed code word, and registering the new reference number designated partial sequence in the dictionary. According to the invention, the following steps are provided :constituting a reference dictionary from a plurality of reference dictionary units comprising the groups of difference beginning characters;coding successive different partial sequences of the received character sequence by constituting a code word by an indication representing a reference dictionary unit and an indication representing a register position of a partial sequence having the maximum length coincidence from the partial sequences registered in a reference dictionary;deriving transition probability between the beginning character of a partial sequence and the last character of a preceding partial sequence between the group of characters, and calculating transition probability between reference dictionaries; andif the transition probability of a partial sequence with regard to the preceding partial sequence is more than a predetermined value, representing a code word, as a variable length code word, by an indication having the length shorter than that of a code word assigned to a partial sequence having less transition probability.

Abstract: To test a primary train of tiered demultiplexers (111, 121, 122, 131, 132),
a data path assurance train of demultiplexers (112, 123, 124) and a selector (130) is used
to generate a demultiplexed signal for comparison (in 151) with a primary
demultiplexed signal. To test a primary train of tiered multiplexers (113, 125, 126, 135,
136), the output of the final multiplexing stage (113) is connected to the input of the
data path assurance train of demultiplexers to generate a demultiplexed signal for
comparison (in 153) with a primary input signal to the primary multiplexer train.
Advantageously, a simpler, more reliable, and less expensive data path assurance circuit
using the same types of components as the primary multiplexers and demultiplexers can
be used to detect failures in these primary units as well as the data path assurance
circuit.

Abstract: In the transferring of a digital data signal from a transmitter
to a receiver using the spread spectrum technique, the data
signal is modulo-2 added with a PN code sequence, the bit rate of
which is very much higher than the bit rate of the data signal. A
carrier is then modulated and transmitted with the-thereby
resulting spread data signal. In the receiver, the modulated
carrier is demodulated and the demodulated signal, to obtain the
digital data signal, is multiplied with a PN code sequence
produced in the receiver, coinciding and synchronised with the PN
code sequence of the transmitter. In the transmitter, the carrier
is modulated by FSK- or BPSK-modulation with the spread data
signal. In addition, modulation is carried out by means of the
respectively other of these two modulation types with a
synchronising signal representing the synchronising information
of the the PN code sequence. In the receiver the modulated
carrier is demodulated by means of a quadrature demodulator, from
the output signal of which then both the spread data signal and
also the synchronising signal can be derived by filtering.

Abstract: A processing method and apparatus for use in an image signal coding system for coding an input image signal into a compressed output image signal, the image signal comprising digitized image data in a plurality of pixels. Image data preferably being in the frequency domain, is selectively filtered such that image quality of said compressed output signal is prioritised by retaining pixel coefficients contributing significantly to image quality and filtering out the rest of the pixel coefficients under first conditions. Under other conditions, the image data is filtered such that a high achievable compression factor for said set of pixel coefficients is prioritised over image quality of said compressed output signal by filtering out also pixel coefficients contributing significantly to image quality.

Abstract: A system, method and apparatus are described that allow for the updating and transmittal of a low data rate signal providing ancillary network data as a rider on a high data rate optical signal. This subcarrier modulated signal can be processed and updated by using a drop/insert facility (407) without having to alter the high data rate signal component of the data signal. Since the subcarrier signal can be detected by inexpensive equipment without having to detect and demultiplex the high data rate signal, the approach described offers a cost effective solution to the problem of network monitoring. Ancillary network management information can be communicated regardless of the quality or loss of the high data rate signal. In addition, by updating the subcarrier signal rider in a cumulative manner, a complete history of the fiber link the modulated optical signal travels on is provided to network management.

Abstract: A large router for routing datagrams. The large router comprises a
plurality of router slices, each of which receives switches and transmits
datagrams. Each router slice has a routing memory for routing the packets.
If a packet is received whose destination address is not known to the
receiving packet slice, the packet slice broadcasts a request for routing
information for that datagram to the other packet slices of the large router
and routes the packet in accordance with the received responses. Groups of
slices are interconnected by a time slot interchange (TSI) unit, and groups
of TSIs are interconnected by a time multiplexed switch. The router can
consist of more than one switch; the switches being interconnected by high
speed data links. Advantageously, the router, though composed of small
