Title: De-icer apparatus
Inventor: PRESCOTT MARK R
IPC: C09K3/18
Filed: 2004-11-18
Granted: 2009-02-17
Abstract: The de-icer apparatus uses the warmer water below an ice cap on a fishpond to maintain an opening in the ice cap for venting gases generated below the ice cap. The de-icer apparatus uses a low voltage heater to warm the water entering the lower end of the apparatus and moves the water by convection to the upper end of the apparatus. In one embodiment, the heated water is moved out of the upper end of the housing to prevent the formation of ice. In another embodiment, the housing provides a chimney effect for venting gas and melting snow.

Abstract: La présente invention a trait à des techniques permettant la génération et l'utilisation de matrices d'orientation pour l'orientation de transmission pseudo-aélatoire. En vue de l'orientation de transmission pseudo-aélatoire, une entité de transmission réalise un traitement spatial à l'aide de matrices d'orientation de sorte qu'une transmission de données observe un ensemble de voies "effectives" formées par la voie réelle utilisée pour la transmission de données et les matrices d'orientation utilisées pour l'orientation de transmission pseudo-aélatoire. Les matrices d'orientation peuvent être générées par la sélection d'une matrice de base, qui peut être une matrice de Walsh ou une matrice de Fourier. On sélectionne ensuite différentes combinaisons de grandeurs scalaires, chaque combinaison comportant au moins une grandeur scalaire ou valeur complexe (par exemple, +1, -1, +j, ou -j, où j = .sqroot.-1). On génère différentes matrices d'orientation par la multiplication de la matrice de base avec chacune des différentes combinaisons de grandeurs scalaires. Les matrices d'orientation sont différentes permutations de la matrice de base.

Abstract: An RF beam steering device employs a prism assembly to steer an RF beam and a compensation device to address undesirable movement of the beam steering device. The prism assembly includes a plurality of dielectric prisms each with an associated impedance matching layer. The dielectric prisms are rotated relative to each other to steer the RF beam in a desired direction and further to compensate for movement of the beam steering device itself. The prisms include a plurality of individual panels with drilled or slotted openings that are arranged to create a periodic photonic crystal structure within a defined region. This configuration effectively alters the dielectric constant over any one particular region of a panel, thereby altering the level of diffraction possible for a specified panel thickness. The openings within each stacked panel are overlapped to produce the required level of diffraction and refractive index gradient. Motors rotate the prisms relative to each other to the correct orientation for steering the RF beam in a desired manner.
