Abstract: A diversity receiver for receiving COFDM signals such as used in DAB or DVB-T has a soft-decision decoder in each of its receiving sections, to provide confidence values for the received decoded digital values, and combines the values from the receiving sections in dependence upon the confidence values. The receiver has two sections (42,44) the outputs of which are applied to a soft-decision combiner (62) which combines the signals in dependence upon confidence values available for each bit of the signal and received from the tuner/demodulators (42). The output is then applied to a Viterbi decoder (46). The combining can simply involve switching but preferably involves averaging. Synchronisation and squelching can be provided. The system can be used with spatial or polarisation diversity, or with antenna pattern diversity, in which case it can constitute an automatic rotator.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus, such as a nebulizer, discharges liquid droplets by supplying the liquid to a vibrating element having a plurality of openings. A valve between a reservoir for the liquid and the element has a tube extending toward the vibrating element. The tube has a valve seat. The tube extends through a magnetic coil in the body of the nebulizer. A ferromagnetic stopper is positioned in the tube and biased toward the valve seat. Energization of the magnetic coil lifts the stopper off the valve seat to allow liquid to flow to the vibrating element. In the alternative, the valve may be placed in the reservoir for operation by a ferromagnetic actuator. The coil may include an electrode for measuring, in conjunction with the vibrating element, an impedance indicative of the amount of liquid provided to the element. The impedance so measured may be used to control the amount of liquid supplied from the reservoir. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention permits improved data access and improved data management in a computer system. To this end, data are divided into individual partial data (F) and stored in cells (Z) of storage devices (C). In such a way that the partial data (F) being accessed and managed are present in the computer system in a redundant manner. Computer units (CL) are able to access the redundantly stored data. The fact that they are stored in the storage devices (C) ensures that the computer units (CL) accessing said data are supplied more rapidly. This is achieved in particular owing to the fact that the redundantly stored data are accessed in accordance with parameters of data transmissions between the computer units (CL) and the data storage devices (C) and that, in accordance with said data transmission parameters, the redundantly stored data are moved to and from the data storage devices (C) by corresponding copy and delete operations.

Abstract: An improved composite structural member comprising a complex profile structural member, made of a composite comprising a polypropylene polymer and a wood fiber. The material is useful in conventional construction applications. The complex profile, in the form of an extruded thermoplastic composite member can be used in residential and commercial structures as described. Preferably, the structural member is used in the manufacture of the fenestration components such as windows and doors. Such linear members are designed with specifically configured cross-sectional shapes to form structural elements in the fenestration units. Structural elements must possess sufficient strength, thermal stability and weatherability to permit the manufacture of a structurally sound window unit that can be easily installed into a rough opening but can maintain its attractive appearance and structural integrity over the life of the window unit often twenty years or more. The structural member comprises a hollow complex cross-section with at least one structural web or one fastener web formed within the component. The exterior of the extruded component has a visible capstock layer and is shaped and adapted for installation in rough openings. The exterior also contains shape and components capable of supporting the elements of the fenestration unit such as a window, sash or movable door unit. The improved polypropylene structural members have unique advantages and can be assembled in thermoplastic weld processes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de mesurer la concentration ou la pression partielle de gaz, notamment d'oxygène, dans des fluides, ainsi qu'un capteur de gaz approprié pour mettre ledit procédé en oeuvre. Selon ledit procédé, il est prévu de mesurer la variation de pression partielle proportionnelle à la concentration de gaz comme une variation de pression ou comme variation d'une grandeur physique dépendant de la pression, à l'intérieur d'un récipient creux, fermé vis-à-vis de l'extérieur, dont la paroi se compose au moins en partie d'une matière plastique perméable de manière spécifique aux gaz. Le principe de mesure est très simple et est particulièrement adapté pour déterminer la concentration en oxygène, ainsi que celle d'autres gaz et en assurer le contrôle à long terme, y compris là où de telles mesures se heurtaient auparavant à des problèmes importants, de même que par exemple pour procéder à des mesures directes dans le sol à des profondeurs importantes ou dans des eaux usées, des eaux vives, etc.
