Abstract: An amalgam (32) is accurately placed and retained in an optimized location in the exhaust tube (20) of an electrodeless SEF lamp (10) for operation at a mercury vapor pressure in the optimum range from approximately four to seven millitorr by forming a dimple (22) in the exhaust tube (20) and using a dose locating member (30) to locate and retain the amalgam (32) on the side of the dimple (22) away from the core of the lamp (10) after filling the lamp (10). As an alternative, two dimples (22a,22b) may be situated on opposite sides of the exhaust tube (20) for performing the same function as, but with less depth than, the single dimple (22). In another alternative embodiment, first and second dimple configurations (40',42') are formed in the exhaust tube (20) after tip-off thereof, each dimple configuration (40',42') including either one or two dimples (40a',40b',42a',42b'). The second dimple configuration (42') is spaced apart from the first dimple configuration (40') along the length of the exhaust tube (20). In this way, the amalgam (32) may be initially positioned farther from the tip-off region (24), thereby avoiding problems during tipping off of the exhaust tube (20), such as loss of mercury from the lamp (10), or quenching of the tip which could cause stress cracks. After tip-off, the second dimple configuration (42') allows for placement of the amalgam (32) closer to, or preferably in contact with, the tip of the sealed exhaust tube (20), i.e., the coolest location in the exhaust tube (20).

Abstract: A cellular radio system, having a mobile services switching center (MSC) coupled to a base station by means of a pulse code modulation (PCM) link, has an apparatus comprising, in the MSC, a transcoder and rate adaptor (TRA) that generates a PCM frame from a plurality of user data blocks, each user data block corresponding to one of a plurality of users and each user data block comprising an integer number of bytes of data. In the PCM frame, each of the plurality of user data blocks occupies an integer number of consecutive bytes of the generated PCM frame, which is then output to the PCM link. The base station includes a channel encoder that generates an air interface frame from a plurality of user data blocks contained in a received PCM frame. The base station may also generate a timing control signal which is received by the MSC. A timing controller in the MSC is responsive to the received timing control signal, and causes the TRA to synchronize output of a generated PCM frame with generation of an air interface frame such that the generated PCM frame will arrive at the base station channel encoder substantially just at a moment when the generated PCM frame is needed by the channel encoder in order to generate the air interface frame without waiting for the generated PCM frame.

Abstract: According to a presently preferred embodiment of the invention, image enhancement apparatus for digital video images comprises a two-stage filter (12) comprising a median filter (12) and recursive filter (14). The median filter operates in one, two, and three dimensions wherein the cluster of pixels framing the center pixel are ranked, and the median value of the pixel cluster is chosen as the correct pixel value. The pixel cluster configuration is selectable, as are the planes where the pixels are located. Multiple weights may be given to the appropriate median filter inputs. A motion detector (78) is used to prevent replacement of each pixel by its pixel cluster median value when there is excessive motion. Finally an adjustable pixel-replacement threshold is defined. Each pixel must deviate from its median value before it is replaced by that value. In the presence of rapid motion in the picture, the operation of the medial filter is reduced or halted by a properly derived motion signal according to the present invention, thus preventing motion artifacts from occurring.

Abstract: A bridging apparatus provides the capability of transparently and unambiguously communicating LAN packets between two separate LAN segments which have nodes with duplicate IDs. A communicator connected to each LAN segment includes a controller which aliases the source identification (SID) of remotely originated or sourced LAN packets with an unused ID which is an alias (AID) before sending the LAN packet with the AID as its SID on the local LAN segment. The reverse occurs in response to locally sourced LAN packets containing the AID as the DID. The ID of the remote node which correlates to the AID is substituted as the DID before the LAN packet is transmitted to the remote LAN segment. By aliasing in this manner LAN packets are communicated by use of the AIDs between the nodes having the duplicate IDs on the two LAN segments without changing the LAN protocol. Each communicator preferably includes a transmitter and receiver by which to communicate bridge packets between communicators. The LAN packets are encapsulated in the bridge packets. Unique communicator source and destination identifications are included in each bridge packet to form a tuple which uniquely identifies each node in the Group without regard to the duplicate IDs on the separate LAN segments.

Abstract: An optical configuration for flow cytometers which allows the sample stream, which carries the cells to be measured, to be excited in two separate foci of different wavelengths. The excitation light is focussed on the sample stream by a lens (5) which has its optical axis (14) and object plane (7) coinciding with that of another lens (16) situated opposite to it and which is collecting fluorescence and light scattering from said cells and forms fluorescence images of said sample stream in different image planes (19, 20 and 34) which are separated by dichroic mirrors (18, 33). Said lens (16) contains a field stop (17) which stops direct excitation, so that only fluorescence and scattered light reach said image planes (19, 20, 34). Behind said image plane (19), which contains scattered light from said cells, is a telescope (21) which makes an image of said field stop (17) in a plane (23). In said plane (23) are two concentric mirrors (24, 25) which isolate light of small and large scattering angle, respectively, and direct this light onto separate light detectors (30, 32). By means of dichroic mirrors and band filters different spectral components of the fluorescence are separated and directed onto separate light detectors (44, 45, 46, 47). Slits (35, 36, 37) in the image planes (19, 20, 34) eliminate background light from the part of said object plane (7) which does not contain said sample flow.

The input signal is fed to a splitter that directs two in-phase components to a first path and a second path. The input to each path is divided by a splitter into in-phase and quadrature sub-signals having a quadrature phase relationship, each sub-signal being fed to a respective inverting attenuator, the outputs of the attenuators then being combined in a combiner and the combined output being passed through a variable delay line to generate the output of the respective path. The outputs of each path are then combined in a combiner circuit to generate the multipath-faded test signal. All four inverting attenuators are preferably substantially identical to one another so that the two paths have close to identical temperature-drift and other characteristics. The attenuators and delay lines are electronically controlled in tandem, preferably using a microprocessor and stored program, to generate precision, static or dynamic, attenuation notches desired.

Abstract: A flow-through particulate incineration system is coupled to an aerodynamically regenerated diesel engine exhaust gas particulate (soot, condensed polynuclear aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons and ash) trap (418). An incineration chamber (430) is provided downstream of the particulates dislodged from the particulate trap (418) during regeneration thereof by a pulse of compressed air. During regeneration, a valve (434) between the particulate trap (418) and the incineration chamber (430) opens to allow the air and entrained particles to pass into the incineration chamber (430) to allow passage of the regeneration air therethrough, but prevent passage of the particulates, whereby the particulates are retained in the incineration chamber (430). A heater (464) in the incineration chamber is periodically activated to burn the particulates collected in the trap. The oxidation products may be exhausted to ambient or may be returned to the engine intake (472) in an exhaust gas recirculation system.
