Patent EP-0744638-A3 (EP)
Inventor: CHU TEK-CHE
IPC: G02B6/44
Filed: 1996-04-17
Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide an optical fiber cable (10) having
hermetically-sealed optical fibers (25) and excellent strength characteristics without
utilizing a costly welded steel tube. It is a further object of the invention to provide an
optical fiber cable (10) that is capable of efficient and fast manufacture. These and other
objects are satisfied, in accordance with the invention, by an optical fiber cable (10)
employing a novel cable core (20), the cable core (20) fabricated by a method comprising the
steps of: a) forming an inner, longitudinally extending, substantially-closed C-section tube
(15) having a longitudinally extending seam and an interior cavity; b) introducing at least
one information-carrying component (25) into the interior cavity of the inner, longitudinally
extending, substantially-closed C-section tube (15); c) forming an outer, longitudinally
extending tube (18) concentrically around the inner, longitudinally extending, substantially
closed C-section tube (15) in a substantially close-fitting manner; and, d) sealing the
outer, longitudinally extending tube (18) to hermetically seal the at least one
information-carrying component (25) in the interior cavity. Advantageously, the C-section
tube (15) assists in protecting the optical fibers (25) against crush, impact and pressure,
and may also enhance the tensile strength of the optical fiber cable (10). The use of the
C-section tube (15) also allows the optical fibers (25) to be efficiently introduced into the
interior cavity of the C-section tube (15) during cable production. And, as the C-section
tube (15) provides the desired strength characteristics of the cable core (20), the outer
tube (18) may be advantageously optimized to hermetically seal the optical fibers (25)
in the cable core (20). Thus, the outer tube (18) may be designed, for example, according to
its sealing characteristics and manufacturability without significant regard for mechanical
characteristics such as strength.

Abstract: A method regulates the admission control of, and requests for routing of, virtual
circuits in a network by determining network resource requirements for the virtual
circuits. In particular, the network resource requirements are based on a set of
parameters used to control the flow of information from a communications device
onto the virtual cirucit. The requirements for network resources typically include
buffer space requirements in network nodes and bandwidth requirements in network
links, and the parameter used to control the flow of information are those associated
with an access regulator. The network resource determination is made for the case
where lossless performance in the network is required and in the case where
statistical multiplexing with limited loss is allowed. Both constant bit rate and
variable bit rate information is considered.

Abstract: A wireless communications system (10) and method for providing
simultaneous multi- channel packet data communications to a single user for given
services without compromising system performance and efficiency. The system has
at least one base station (11) that transmits to at least one of a plurality of receiver
stations (12-14) over a given set of carrier frequencies, wherein each base station keeps of
list of optimal frequencies over which a given receiver station would reliably receive
data packets transmitted from the base station without the need for an increase in
carrier energy. In one embodiment the system maintains a queue for each terminal
to which data packets will be delivered. The data packets can be delivered over
voice-dedicated and/or data packet dedicated frequencies at one time. In any event,
however, when transmitting on voice-dedicated frequencies, the queued data packets
are transmitted during voice inactivity periods. In another embodiment, both the
base station and the receiver stations or terminals are capable of transmitting
different packet data simultaneously over different frequencies.

Abstract: Dust or aerosol filters in an enclosed housing are exposed to a flow of hot gases at e.g. 1000 degrees C, and have a high level of flow resistance when laden. The filters are cleaned from time to time by a rapid reduction in pressure on that side of the chamber in which the filters bear their load. In a process to clean the filters, fine droplets of a fluid, especially water are sprayed into hot gases on the particle-laden side of the filter chamber. The fluid droplets instantly vaporise under conditions of adiabatic expansion and the thermodynamic conditions in the filter. The quantity of fluid spray is dosed to ensure that the gas temperature does not fall below the dew point. The spray process is repeated a number of times at short intervals depending upon the required duration of pressure reduction.   Also claimed is an apparatus for the above process.

Abstract: In order to obtain a print area from a printing start position to a printing
end position in the longitudinal direction of printing paper without leaving any
margin in the lateral direction of the paper, the width of a heater line of a thermal
head (1a), corresponding to the lateral direction of the printing paper, is set to be
not less than the width of the printing paper. Considering a shift length to be
made by a cutter (6) in cutting, a CPU (10A) determines a first cutting position that
is on the side of the print area with respect to the printing start position of the print
area, and a final cutting position that is on the side of the print area with respect to
the printing end position of the print area. Then, the CPU (10A) gives a cutting
command which indicates the first and final cutting positions to the cutter (6) which
will cut the printing paper at those positions. This allows an image printing
apparatus to obtain cut printing paper which is entirely an effective print area
without any margin.

Abstract: Contact between an electrophysiology catheter
electrode (6) and cardiac tissue covered by blood is sensed by
applying a constant voltage or current square wave signal (23)
to the electrode and then monitoring the voltage or impedance
or current at the electrode before, during, and after the
electrode contacts the tissue. The monitored pulse (22)
includes an ohmic impedance portion (30) and combined ohmic
and capacitive impedance portion (32). Successive monitored
pulses can be measured in several ways to determine when
tissue contact has occurred: the maximum magnitudes (36) of
successive ohmic resistance portions; the initial slopes (38)
for successive combined resistive portions; the amplitudes
(40) of successive combined resistive portions at a preset
time interval from the start of each pulse; and the average
amplitudes (42) of successive combined impedance portions over
a preset time period for each pulse. Upon contact, the
magnitudes of each changes significantly, such as 40-50% in
cardiac applications.
