Abstract: In performing testing on Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) it is a challenge to accurately generate and measure RF (radio frequency) power. In an example embodiment, in a test apparatus used for measuring the input and output characteristics of an amplifier, there is a method for determining test program parameters. The method involves calculating input loss from the test apparatus power source to the input of the amplifier, defining an input loss correction factor. The output loss from the amplifier output to the power meter of the test apparatus is calculated, defining an output loss correction factor. Using the input loss correction factor, a real input power level is determined and using the output loss correction factor, a real output level is determined.

Abstract: A system for propelling a vehicle along an elevated, pneumatic power tube carried by exterior support structure above ground. First and second angles define tracks for the vehicle and extend parallel to the power tube. Undercarriages secured to the vehicle including vehicle support and guidance wheels which are rotatable about axes inclined relative to legs of the angle tracks have a periphery that engages the legs of the angle tracks so that the weight of the vehicle is supported by the tracks and the support structure only. A pneumatic propulsion unit is movably disposed inside the power tube and is guided along rails on the inside of the power tube. A magnetic coupler having first and second cooperating magnetic elements is attached to the vehicle and the propulsion unit in operative alignment with each other. A portion of the power tube located between the magnetic elements is constructed of a non-magnetic and non-conductive material and extends over the length of the power tube. The propulsion unit has a thrust carriage with a thrust valve that forms a collapsible, frusto-conically shaped wall formed by a multiplicity of overlapping, angularly inclined blades that are concentrically disposed in the power tube. An actuator is coupled to the blades for selectively increasing an angle of the blades until free ends thereof contact an interior surface of the power tube, to thereby prevent the flow of air through the tube past the wall, and for retracting the blades so that the free ends thereof are spaced apart from the interior surface of the power tube, the valve generating a force acting in the longitudinal direction of the power tube when the free ends of the valve blades engage the interior surface.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a reversible electrochemical sensor for polyions. The sensor uses active extraction and ion stripping, which are controlled electrochemically. Spontaneous polyion extraction is suppressed by using membranes containing highly lipophilic electrolytes that possess no ion-exchange properties. Reversible extraction of polyions is induced by constant current pulse of fixed duration applied across the membrane. Subsequently, polyions are removed by applying a constant stripping potential. The sensors provide excellent stability and reversibility and allow for measurements of heparin concentration in whole blood samples via protamine titration.

Abstract: In a method for efficient retransmission of data, symbol accumulation is used to retransmit a packet received in error at a lower energy-per-bit level concurrently in the same frame with a new packet. The destination device receives the data transmission and retransmission, demodulates the signal, and separates the received data into the new and retransmitted packet. The destination device then accumulates the energy of the retransmitted packet with the energy already accumulated for the packet received in error and decodes the accumulated packet. The accumulation of the additional energy provided by the subsequent retransmissions improves the probability of a correct decoding. The throughput rate can be improved since the packet received in error is retransmitted concurrently with the transmission of the new data packet. The capacity is maximized since the retransmission of the packet received in error is at a lower energy level than that of the new packet. <??>The method includes puncturing the code symbols of a data packet for transmission in accordance with a first puncturing pattern. If decoding of the punctured transmitted packet of data is unsuccessful, a negative acknowledgement is received at the source device and the code symbols of the data packet are then punctured in accordance with a second pattern for transmission in response to the receipt of the negative acknowledgement. <IMAGE>
