Patent EP-1830212-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KANAI MAKOTO
IPC: G02B15/177
Filed: 2007-02-28
Abstract: A zoom lens includes a first lens group (G1) having a negative refractive power, and second and third lens groups (G2, G3) each having a positive refractive power, sequentially aligned from an object side. The first lens group (G1) is moved along an optical axis and the second lens group (G2) is moved along the optical axis toward the object side, during zooming from a wide-angle end state to a telescopic end state. The third lens group (G3) includes a negative sub-lens group (G3n) having a negative refractive power, and a positive sub-lens group (G3p) having a positive refractive power, sequentially aligned from the object side. Moving the positive sub-lens group (G3p) orthogonally to the optical axis causes image shifting. The zoom lens satisfies a conditional expression (1): 0.3 < 1 - β < 2.5, where β is a magnification of the positive sub-lens group (G3p) at the telescopic end state.

Abstract: An imager is shifted with respect to an optical axis of a refractive optical system. Thereby, a throw distance of a projector is shortened. A wavelength-selective half wavelength plate for rotating a polarization direction of green light beams is disposed between a dichroic prism and the refractive optical system in such a manner that the polarization direction of the green light beams is in parallel to the shifting direction. Thereby, the green light beams are incident onto the refractive optical system as P-polarized beams, whereby a transmittance of the green light beams in the refractive optical system is increased, while suppressing lowering of the light amount of the green light beams, and color non-uniformity resulting from lowering of the light amount of the green light beams.

Abstract: A support assembly for a deformable sealing element of a downhole tool such as a packer, bridge plug or straddle. The support assembly has first and second support devices at each end of the sealing element with each device having an elastically deformable support member adapted to be located between the respective end of the sealing element and an actuating member of the downhole tool. Additionally, a guide member with an inclined guide surface is provided such that the support member travels along the inclined surface when a force is exerted by the actuating member to expand the sealing element radially into abutment with a surface downhole. The support member moves radially outwards to support the respective end of the sealing element during deformation.

IPC: H04J11/00

Abstract: A data processing apparatus maps input symbols to be communicated onto a predetermined number of sub-carrier signals of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) symbol. The data processor includes an interleaver memory which reads-in the predetermined number of data symbols for mapping onto the OFDM sub-carrier signals. The interleaver memory reads-out the data symbols on to the OFDM sub-carriers to effect the mapping, the read-out being in a different order than the read-in, the order being determined from a set of addresses, with the effect that the data symbols are interleaved on to the sub-carrier signals. The set of addresses are generated from an address generator which comprises a linear feedback shift register and a permutation circuit. The linear feedback shift register has ten register stages with a generator polynomial for the linear feedback shift register of        R   i   ʹ       9     =     R     i   -   1     ʹ       0     ⊕     R     i   -   1     ʹ       3     ,        and the permutation code forms, with an additional bit, an eleven bit address. The permutation code is changed from one OFDM symbol to another, thereby providing an improvement in interleaving the data symbols for a 2K operating mode of an OFDM modulated system such as a Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard such as DVB-Terrestria12 (DVB-T2). This is because there is a reduced likelihood that successive data bits which are close in order in an input data stream are mapped onto the same sub-carrier of an OFDM symbol.
