Abstract: A program guide information producing apparatus (102) outputs self-produced
program guide information and other broadcaster's program guide
information. In the program guide information producing apparatus (102), a
common program guide information producing section (204) generates self-produced
common program guide information. Furthermore, a program guide
information output section (203) unites the self-produced common program guide
information with other broadcaster's common program guide information
received from a program guide information collecting/transmitting apparatus
(101) and outputs the united common program guide information. Thus, the self-produced
common program guide information is surely output even when the
program guide information collecting/transmitting apparatus (101) or the like is

Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés, des compositions et des trousses. Les compositions sont luminescentes et comprennent une matrice polymère présentant un composé photosensible dissous. La composition se caractérise en ce qu'après activation du composé photosensible, la vitesse à laquelle l'intensité d'émission de lumière décroît à tout moment pendant une diminution de vingt fois de l'intensité, est proportionnelle à l'intensité de l'émission de lumière. Dans un mode de réalisation, la matrice polymère est composée de particules présentant un diamètre compris entre environ 20 nm et environ 100 νm auxquelles est lié un élément spécifique d'une paire de liaison. En général, les particules comprennent une matrice polymère présentant d'environ 1 à environ 20 % en poids d'un dopant dissous. Ces compositions peuvent être utilisées dans des procédés permettant d'identifier un échantillon à analyser. L'invention concerne également une combinaison comprenant (1) un milieu supposé contenir ledit échantillon à analyser, et (2) la composition susmentionnée. La substance photosensible est activée et les incidences de cette activation sur les propriétés optiques de ladite combinaison sont détectées. La présence et l'importance de ces incidences dépendent de la présence et de la quantité d'échantillon à analyser dans ledit milieu. L'invention concerne également des trousses pouvant être utilisées pour réaliser un test.

Abstract: An instrument and related process for measuring color, shade, gloss, shape and/or translucence of a tooth. First, the instrument uses searchlight illumination to illuminate a tooth with constant irradiance. Second, the instrument uses calorimetric imaging to collect time-separated frames of different wavelengths of light reflected from a tooth and to combine those frames into a color image. Third, the instrument includes a sanitary shield to establish a reference color and a predetermined distance to a target tooth. Fourth, the instrument provides line-of-sight viewing so an operator may simultaneously view a display of the image on the instrument and the object being measured. Fifth, the instrument is impervious to pollutants because it incorporates a sealed measurement window. Sixth, optical measurements of a tooth taken by a dentist are compared to optical measurements of a prosthetic restoration for that tooth to confirm satisfactory matching of optical characteristics of the tooth and restoration.

Inventor: LEAIRD DANIEL E
IPC: G02B6/34

Abstract: Direct space-to-time pulse shaping and optical pulse train generation is achieved in the present invention by first generating a controlled pulsed light beam and applying the beam to a pixelator (18) such as a mask or a diffractive optical element (DOE) to obtain a pixelated beam. The spatially patterned beams generated by the pixelator is imaged onto a planar modulator (11). The individual spot size and spacing from the pixelation optics as well as the imaging system magnification (30) are selected to match the linear array of spots from the pixelation optics (18) to a one-dimensional amplitude modulator array (11) -- one spot per modulator array element. The final operation of the mask generation optics is to image the one-dimensional spatial pattern reflected from (or transmitted thereof) the modulator array (11) onto a spectral dispersing element (16) such as a diffraction grating. The mask generation optics (12) generates a one-dimensional array of spots on the spectral dispersing element (16) where the relative 'height' or average power of each spot can be controlled by an individual element in a high-speed optoelectronic modulator array (11). In this way, different spatial patterns ('pulse packets' - a sequence of optical spots in a one-dimensional array) can be manipulated on the surface of the spectral dispersing element (16) by electronically controlling the optical reflectivity/transmissivity state of individual elements of the optoelectronic modulator array (16). The pulse shaping (14) is accomplished by applying the light diffracted by the spectral dispersing element (16) to a lens (24) and then to a thin slit (27). The beam passing through the thin slit may then be applied to an appropriate photonic transmission medium (air-vacuum, fiber optic cable, etc) for transmission to a receiver where it may be demodulated by a suitably fast photo diode, other conventional photonic receiver, or various optical demodulation devices.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a silencer for reducing acoustic energy in a
flow of exhaust gas from a combustion power source which prevents rain or
snow from entering an exhaust stack without the need for a weather cap or
hood. The silencer achieves acoustic energy attenuation and precipitation
diversion with a minimal increase in backpressure. The silencer comprises a
chamber at least partially defined by a chamber wall in communication with an
inlet port for introducing exhaust gas into the chamber and an exhaust port for
exiting exhaust gases from the chamber. The inlet port may be in
communication with an inlet collar for attachment to an exhaust stack. A
housing at least partially surrounds the chamber wall to form at least one
cavity between the chamber wall and the housing where acoustic absorbing
material is disposed. A deflector is at least partially disposed within the
chamber having a gallery portion in communication with the channel. The
channel is provided for draining the contents of the gallery portion which are
diverted from entering the exhaust stack. The deflector may be substantially
V-shaped or have a substantial concave shape. For purposes of reducing
backpressure, the deflector is substantially centered about a vertical axis of
the exhaust port.

Abstract: A timing and frequency offset estimation method for
OFDM use an analytic tone in calculating timing offset
estimation and a frequency offset estimation. An analytic
tone includes a signal that contains only one subcarrier
and has characteristics of a uniform magnitude and a
uniform phase rotation. The estimation algorithm with an
analytic tone is based correlation function. By changing
the interval between two samples in correlation, the
maximum estimation range for the frequency offset can be
extended to ±N/2 subcarrier spacing, where N is the number
of total subcarriers. Thus, the frequency synchronization
scheme for OFDM systems has a wider range and a more
simple complexity than traditional ones requiring separate
fine and coarse synchronization.
