Patent EP-0614276-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DAUCHY ERIC
IPC: H03K3/53
Filed: 1994-03-04
Abstract: The present invention relates to a simulator of predominantly magnetic fields, and the application of this simulator to trials of electrical or electronic equipment items. The principle of operation of the simulator according to the invention is based on the discharge of a capacitor (1) into an inductor (2). A resistor (8) of value R makes it possible to choose the mode of discharge of the capacitor (1) between a damped sinusoidal mode and an aperiodic mode. According to the invention, the inductor is formed by at least one plate of conducting material bent into a U shape, the extremities of the branches of the U being connected to the terminals of the capacitor. The width and length dimensions of the plate fix the value L of the inductance, and are chosen moreover in such a way as to create a confinement volume in which a predominantly magnetic field is generated. The simulator according to the invention makes it possible easily to vary the characteristics of the magnetic field generated, particularly by adjusting the R, L and C values. It may be used particularly to simulate the magnetic fields generated by large-sized metallic structures subjected to electromagnetic pulses, and to try out equipment intended to be carried by these structures. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The modulator has a raster of individual micro-mirrors (2), electrostatically controlled in dependence on a supplied control signal, e.g. a television signal. Each micro-mirror is individually pivoted between an initial position and an angled position for modulation of the incident light. The electrostatic charges required for pivoting the micro-mirrors are provided by a multi-channel secondary electron multiplier (3), with the micro-mirrors associated with respective channels. Pref. the micro-mirrors are supported by a carrier incorporating a micro-channel plate, providing the individual channels of the secondary electron multiplier.

Title: Drive arrangement for mechanically-steered antennas
Inventor: SYDOR JOHN TOM
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 1994-02-04
Abstract: A mechanically steerable antenna suitable for mobile earth stations of satellite communication systems comprises a support member (12; 74) mounted upon a base member (14; 72) and an active antenna element (10; 70) or array of elements mounted uppon the support member. The antenna element or array of elements is rotatable about its boresight relative to the support member. The support member (12; 74) itself is rotatable in azimuth relative to the base member. The rotation axis of the antenna element or array of elements and the rotation axis of the support member are mutually inclined by a predetermined angle corresponding to the mean elevation angle of the satellite. The antenna includes drive means (48; 94) for rotating the support member relative to the base member, and a flexible coupling (42; 116) interconnects the base member and the antenna element. The arrangement is such that, as the support member rotates relative to the base member, the flexible coupling transmits torsional forces to rotate the antenna element or array of elements oppositely relative to the support member.

Abstract: Procédé et appareil de communications à spectre étalé. Au départ, les paramètres de communication à spectre étalé par défaut de l'appareil, tels que le niveau par défaut de la puissance de transmission, la séquence de bruit pseudo-aléatoire (PN), la longueur de la séquence PN et la fréquence du canal, ont des valeurs qui sont choisies pour que les communications à spectre étalé puissent s'établir à coup sûr entre une première et une seconde station. L'appareil objet de l'invention modifie alors les paramètres des communications à spectre étalé pour qu'il correspondent à des valeurs minimales nécessaires pour assurer un niveau donné de fiabilité des communications. Si les conditions de fonctionnement des communications à spectre étalé évoluent et que la fiabiité des communications passe au-dessous du niveau donné, l'appareil redonne aux paramètres des communications à spectre étalé leur valeur par défaut, puis entreprend à nouveau de les modifier jusqu'à obtenir le niveau donné de fiabilité des communications. Si l'appareil détermine que les communications peuvent s'établir avec fiabilité en utilisant des techniques à bande étroite, il modifie les paramètres pour assurer une communication à bande étroite au niveau de puissance minimal acceptable.

Abstract: Relative motion is enabled between a machine tool and workpiece in one or more axes, the path being defined by interpolation between predefined path points. Information about the path to be generated is obtained from a source (CAD/CAM) relative to a workpiece coordinate system in the form of non-rational-base-splines, or NURBS, or as rational polynomials. The NURBS are converted into rational polynomials in, or the existing rational polynomials or accepted by, the numerical controller (NC). The rational polynomials are analytically transformed into a base coordinate system, taking into account of correction parameters, esp. tool correction parameters, as required. The transformed polynomials are interpolated and the resulting signal transformed into the machine coordinate system, distributed among the machine axes and fed to the corresp. drives.
