Patent EP-1052098-A3 (EP)
Inventor: IWASAKI OSAMU
IPC: B41J2/05
Filed: 2000-05-12
Abstract: By making judgment whether number of dots to be printed
in one printing scan exceeds a predetermined criterion or
not, printing elements associated with summing of number
of dots are selected if the number of dots exceeds the
predetermined criterion, printing scan for the scanning
lines corresponding to the selected printing elements is
performed, and paper feeding for the printed scanning line
is performed. By this, possible largest number of
scanning lines can be printed within an allowable electric
energy consumption for one scan. Thus, efficient printing
operation can be performed.

Abstract: A monitoring system includes a lead having a terminal covered by a removable sheath.
In one embodiment, the lead has a first end coupled to an implantable electrode and a second
end which includes a terminal for coupling to a mating terminal. The sheath prevents bodily
fluids from contacting the terminal as the lead is tunneled under a patient's scalp. After the
terminal exits the scalp, the sheath is removed from the terminal to allow its connection to the
mating terminal.

Abstract: An improved call admission control method and
apparatus is provided in which a MAC (or equivalent) layer
parameter such as the frame error rate (FER) (frame error rate
) is used as a basis for call admission control. An estimate
of a frame error rate (FER) which would result should a
requested session be admitted is made, and on the basis of this
estimate, the session is either admitted or denied access. The
estimate is made by combining a previous frame error rate (FER)
with a degradation which is expected should the session be
admitted. The degradation is either determined experimentally,
or can be updated in real time to reflect actual traffic
patterns.

Abstract: A circuit, (54) comprising a plurality of switches (S 1 , S 2 ,
S 3 , S 4  and S 5 ) coupled together in a charge pump arrangement
(56). A first switch (S 1 ) is driven by a first driver (X 1 ), and
a second switch (S 2 ) is driven by a second driver (X 2 ). The
first and second switches (S 1  and S 2 ) are connected to the input
voltage terminal (V in ). The charge pump arrangement (56) is
adapted to provide a boot voltage (V boot ) and a drive voltage
(V dry ) for a switch mode power supply. At least the first driver
(X 1 ) is powered by a voltage higher than the input voltage (V in ).
The higher voltage maybe obtained from a voltage (V 3 ) at a node
between an additional switch (S 6 ) and an additional capacitor
(C 3 ). Alternatively, the higher voltage may be obtained from the
boot voltage (V boot ). Powering the driver (X 1 ) with the higher
voltage allows the lateral semiconductor area of the charge pump
circuit (56) to be reduced, by using NMOS FETs for at least one
switch. The invention is particularly useful for applications
such as DSPs and mixed signal or analog circuits.

Abstract: A method and system for optimizing the assembly workcell layout in the context
of industrial robotic CAD/CAM/CAE software products. The criterion to be minimized
is the cycle time for completing a given sequence of operations, which is achieved by
determining the relative positions of peripheral machines on the workcell floor. The
method is constructive: each machine is placed one at a time in the robot neighborhood,
by means of a modified simulated annealing method. This method yields several possible
and optimal positions for a machine and several layouts are thus obtained at the end of
execution.

Abstract: A polarized light irradiation apparatus, having at least two plane mirrors, is constructed to
prevent reduction of the extinction ratio of the polarized light that irradiates a substrate when
there is a change of the direction of polarization of the polarized light that is incident on a
reflecting mirror. This is accomplished by forming a protection layer on the surface of the
second plane mirror, and selecting the material and optical thickness of the layer in accordance
with the angle of incidence and wavelength of the polarized light so that the difference Δ of the
phase shifts of the polarization P component and the polarization S component emerging from
the second plane mirror satisfies the condition that Δ ≤ ±20°. By doing this, there will be no
reduction of the extinction ratio of the polarized light that irradiates the substrate W if there is a
change in the polarization direction of the polarized light that is incident on the second plane
mirror.

Abstract: A multi-function stalk switch that incorporates a pushbutton switch, a first rotary switch and a second rotary switch onto the end of a stalk, wherein further switching functions may be executed by moving the entire stalk in either of two orthogonal planes. The stalk switch incorporates many design features that enable it to be assembled at low cost from a small number of parts. One such feature is the use of plastic-on-plastic detents to control positioning of the rotary switches so that they wipe across predetermined portions of a flexible printed circuit board. Another feature is the inclusion of a springloaded plunger detent riding in a concave centering mechanism that is operable to automatically return the stalk switch to its central (neutral) position after removal of external biasing forces. A further feature is the inclusion of magnets on the stalk switch and Hall effect sensors fixedly mounted nearby in order to sense movement of the magnets (and therefore the stalk) in two orthogonal planes. Further features of the invention are also disclosed.

Abstract: Implementing asymmetrical wireless communications
without significant wastage of bandwidth within the up-link
block of frequency spectrum is becoming increasingly
important. If the frequency spectrum is divided such that a
single up-link block is paired with a plurality of
corresponding down-link blocks of similar bandwidth size and
respective fixed frequency offsets, the bandwidth efficiency
of spectrum usage can improve when considering many data
applications such as the Internet. MTs that utilize different
down-link blocks can share a common up-link block so that, in
ideal statistical situations, the up-link block statistically
runs out of bandwidth at approximately the same time as the
combination of the down-link blocks. With fixed frequency
offsets between the up-link block and each of the plurality
of down-link blocks, the design of the BTS and the MTs can be
kept reasonably simple.

Abstract: This invention relates to a vibration wave driving
apparatus including an electro-mechanical energy
conversion element (3) that is sandwiched and fixed between
elastic members (1,2,5), in which a flange-shaped elastic
member (5) is provided between the electro-mechanical
energy conversion element and one of the elastic
members (1,2). When a driving vibration is applied to the
electro-mechanical energy conversion element, a
vibration element excites bending vibrations and those
bending vibrations allow out-of-plane bending
vibrations to be excited in the flange-shaped elastic
member. Since a rotor is brought into contact with the
third elastic member (5) sandwiched between the elastic
member and the electro-mechanical energy conversion
element, the size of the vibration wave driving
apparatus can be reduced. In addition, since a
travelling wave produced by the bending vibration of
the vibration element and a travelling wave produced by
the out-of-plane bending vibration of the third elastic
member are generated at the frictional surface of the
vibration element, the output of the vibration wave
driving apparatus can be improved.

Then, layer separation section(2003) performs layer separation pixel by pixel to separate each pixel into pixels belonging to a background and pixels belonging to a foreground. Approximation processors(2008,2009) alleviate an increase of entropy due to layer separation through approximation processing and carry out JPEG-like processing on photographic images. The images are then subjected to coding with variable-length codes such as arithmetic codes. The coding rate is subjected to feedback control as appropriate taking into account the performance of the apparatus.

Abstract: A CDMA mobile communication system determines the number of input

encodes/decodes the input information bits (5bits). A transmitter encodes the
input information bits into 16 coded symbols with a first order Reed-Muller code,
and punctures four coded symbols from the 16 coded symbols so as to generate a
codeword having the minimum distance. A receiver then receives punctured
coded symbols, i.e., the codeword, and inserts zero (0) bits at the punctured
positions. Further, the receiver calculates reliabilities between the zero-inserted
coded symbols with all of first order Reed-Muller codewords, and outputs input
information bits for the coded symbols corresponding to the highest reliability.
