Abstract: A vibrating structure gyroscope comprises a resonant body, a drive transducer for driving resonant motion of the body, a pick-off for producing signals representative of the resonant motion, and a signal processor for extracting z-axis orientation information and x- and y-axis rate information from the signals. The resonant body is planar and the resonant motion takes place in a vibration mode pattern whose orientation angle with respect to the body varies in accordance with z-axis orientation of the body and couples energy into an out-of-plane response mode motion in accordance with rotation of the body about the x- or y-axis. The signal processor resolves the out-of-plane response mode motion with reference to a z-axis orientation signal to extract the x- and y-axis rate information.

Abstract: A method of processing sewage in which non-biodegradable solids are first removed from the sewage for separate disposal and the sewage is then introduced to the bottom of a fermentation cell (113) designed to optimize sedimentation and methane fermentation of settleable organic solids, most of which settle in the fermentation cell (113). The fermentation cell (113) contains sulfate-reducing microorganisms which release sulfides that combine with multi-valent metal particles in the sewage to form insoluble particles, a portion of which settles in the fermentation cell (113). The remaining metal sulfides, other suspended solids, microorganisms, nutrients, and pathogens in the sewage are then removed by natural means followed by dissolved air flotation (118), slow sand filtration (122) and disinfection (124). Finally, reverse osmosis (126) is carried out to produce purified water and a high-salinity concentrate.

Title: Procédé d'identification et de caractérisation de non-linearités dans des canaux de communications optiques

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'identification et de modélisation des non-linéarités dans des canaux de communications, notamment des canaux de communication optiques. Un canal est en général modélisé comme une somme de termes linéaires et non linéaires possédant un mémoire. Les termes sont fonctions de l'entrée dans le canal par rapport au temps, par exemple d'une séquence de bits d'entrée. Dans l'un des modes de réalisation, les bits d'entrée les plus récents (5) dans le canal optique sont utilisés afin d'accéder à une valeur dans une table de recherche. Cette valeur est ensuite comparée à une valeur réelle provenant du canal. La différence entre la valeur dans la table et la valeur réelle du canal peut être utilisée afin de corriger la valeur dans la table, en utilisant par exemple un algorithme à erreur quadratique minimale. Lorsque la table de recherche et le canal convergent la table de recherche contient un modèle de canal équipé d'une mémoire pouvant modéliser les non-linéarités. Un canal non linéaire équipé d'une mémoire peut aussi être modélisé en noyaux de Volterra, qui peut changer de manière équivalente dans le modèle de la table de recherche en utilisant la transformée d'Hadamard. La représentation du noyau de Volterra présente également l'avantage de représenté une table de recherche à N entrées de table dans au moins N-1 noyaux de Volterra. Dans de nombreux cas, quelques noyaux de Volterra sont nécessaires afin de modéliser le comportement du canal. Dans certains modes de réalisation de l'invention, deux noyaux peuvent modéliser un canal à fibres optiques non linéaire, fonctionnant à une longueur d'onde de 850 nanomètres à travers un canal multimode à un débit binaire de 1 gigabit par seconde.
