Title: Multiband downconverter for digital receivers
Inventor: PAGANO CARMINE JAMES
IPC: H04L5/06
Filed: 1996-09-17
Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus (40) for digitizing an electromagnetic input signal (Sm) having frequency components within at least first and second segregated frequency bands, particularly useful in a wireless communications system. The apparatus includes a filtering circuit (54, 56, 58) arrangement for passing only frequency components of the input signal substantially within the first and second frequency bands, to provide a filtered signal having a spectrum with spectral components below a predetermined power level within a frequency gap between the first and second frequency bands. An analog to digital (A/D) converter (60) samples the filtered signal at a sampling rate sufficient to provide a digitized output signal with a frequency spectrum corresponding to that of the filtered signal and also with a replica of spectral components of one of the frequency bands appearing within the frequency gap. Preferably, the sampling rate used is less than the Nyquist sampling rate for the composite frequency band extending from the lowest to highest frequencies of the two bands. This allows a single A/D converter to be employed to sample the filtered signal, even when a large frequency gap exists between the segregated bands. A single mixer stage (42, 44) can then be used in conjunction with the single A/D converter (60) in a wireless communications receiver application.

Abstract: A novel wire module support structure for controlling the spacing and edge wire angle of an electrode wire (42) relative to a donor roll (40) in a scavengeless development process is disclosed. A stationary wire support (100) is arc shaped with a rounded edge and is located in close proximity to the donor roll end. This spatial relationship between the donor roll end and the wire support surface (102) optimizes the donor roll surface to wire relationship. The wire support surface (102) may be at a greater or lesser radius than the the donor roll surface. When the wire support surface is located at a larger radius than the donor roll surface, a clamp assembly (200) is used to control the height of the wires with respect to the donor roll surface.

Abstract: The invention is a method and apparatus for embedding an implant of a special design in
bone tissue in a way that encourages bone tissue growth in and around the implant thereby achieving
greater attachment security over longer periods of time. The user employs a bone-fragment
collecting drill to form the bone-tissue hole and deliver the resulting bone fragments to a collecting
region. The user crumbles the bone fragments by placing them in the lower of two mating spoon-shaped
jaws of a pliers-like device and repeatedly opening and closing the jaws until the bone
fragments are crumbled. The surface of the implant is equipped with one or more embedded helical
channels and through-holes to permit bone growth into the implant. The installation of the implant
consists of partially filling the bone-tissue hole with bone crumbs, packing the helical channels and
through-holes with bone crumbs, and installing the implant in the bone-tissue hole. The interspace
between the implant and the bone tissue becomes filled with the patient's own bone tissue during the
installation process thereby greatly encouraging the growth of bone tissue in and around the implant.

Abstract: A data processor supports the use of multiple memory models by computer
programs. At a device external to a data processor, such as a memory
controller, memory transactions requests are received from the data
processor. Each memory transaction request has associated therewith a
memory model selected from a predefined plurality of memory models. In a
preferred embodiment, the predefined memory models supported are SSO
(strong sequential order), TSO (total store order), PSO (partial store order)
and RMO (relaxed memory order). Data representing pending memory
transactions are stored in one or more pending transaction buffers and a
pending transaction status array. The pending transaction status data
includes memory transaction order data that indicates which of the pending
memory transactions can be performed before other ones of the pending
memory transactions. More particularly, logic in the memory controller
determines, based on the memory model associated with a most recently
received memory transaction request and the memory model associated with
at least one other pending memory transaction, whether or not the memory
transaction associated with the most recently received memory transaction
request can be performed before the other pending memory transaction, and
then stores data representing this ordering determination in a transaction
scoreboard. The memory controller performs the pending memory
transactions in an order consistent with the memory transaction order data.
As a result, a subset of the pending memory transactions are performed in a
different order than they were received from the data processor.
