Abstract: An optical repeater is described which integrates an erbium doped optical fiber amplifier (EDFA) with a dispersion equalizer (DE) based on fiber gratings. The dispersion equalizer is based on parallel connection of two fiber gratings for single carrier wavelength operation, and on parallel connection of a cascade of two fibre grating branches, each carrying a plurality grating elements chirped for different wavelengths, for WDM operation at a plurality of wavelengths. 
     The use of two gratings sections for each wavelength improves the optical bandwidth of the equalizer compared with single grating designs, doubling the effective bandwidth. Further, the grating DE is disposed between two fiber amplifier sections which share a single pump laser. Thus, this arrangement provides dispersion compensation and loss compensation in an optical repeater of lower cost, and smaller size, compared to a system of similar performance configured using discrete components.

Abstract: A conductive refractory compound coating for electrodes is sputter
resistant, very resistant to oxidation, and easy to apply by way of electrophoresis or
screen printing. This structure is further enhanced by the presence of surface particles of
electrically nonconductive ceramic material. when the cathode electrode is energized,
electrically nonconductive material is penetrated by the electric field, which attracts
secondary electrons out of the cathode electrode, thereby increasing the cathode's
efficiency as an emitter of secondary electrons. More specifically, cathode electrodes are
used in a plasma addressing structure. The coating is formed by approximately 5 nm
particles, each comprised of a fused matrix of conductive and nonconductive particles
co-deposited with frit particles by either electrophoresis or "silk" screening. The coating
is subsequently baked to fuse the frit and bond the electrophoretically deposited particles
to the electrodes.

Abstract: A digital satellite broadcasting system for providing
copy protection or so-called macrovision signals which hinder the
recording of designated picture signals and which do not
adversely affect the performance of a television receiver. Such
satellite broadcasting system may include a broadcasting station (100),
a satellite (200), and a plurality of satellite receivers (31)
each located
at a subscriber's premises and coupled to the subscriber's
television receiver (60) and recording/reproducing device (VTR) (70).
Parameters pertaining to a number of types of television
receivers (60) may be transmitted from the satellite broadcasting
station (100) by way of the satellite (200)
to the satellite receivers (31). Upon
receiving such transmitted parameters, each respective satellite
receiver (31) obtains the parameters associated with the respective
television (60). Such obtained parameters are utilized in forming a
macrovision signal which is combined with video data and supplied
to the respective television receiver (60). As a result of using
parameters associated with the respective television receiver (60) in
forming the macrovision signal, the performance of such
television receiver (60) is not adversely affected and picture signals
of designated programs which are recorded on the VTR (70) will produce
unacceptable pictures upon reproduction so as to provide the
desired copy protection.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel structure of a
tape cartridge accommodating a printing tape and an ink
ribbon used for printing, which prevents the printing tape
from being stuck in a cartridge case or the ink ribbon from
being slackened. The tape cartridge of the invention has a
mechanism for preventing an end of the tape from being
reversely moved back into the cartridge case. A typical
structure of the mechanism includes an anti-inversion system
which prevents a tape core having a tape wound thereon from
rotating in a reverse direction, that is, a direction
opposite to a normal rotating direction for printing. The
anti-inversion effects are removed when the tape cartridge
is set in a printing device such as a tape writer to ensure
smooth feeding of the tape for printing. When the tape is
forcibly pressed back into the cartridge case, a movable
platen clamps the tape between the platen and a fixed wall
to prevent reverse movement of the tape. The tape cartridge
of the invention also includes an anti-slack mechanism for
preventing slack of the ink ribbon through engagement of a
ribbon winding core with an anti-rotational engagement piece.
Engagement of this anti-slack mechanism is also released
when the tape cartridge is set in the printing device.
