Patent EP-0546572-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KAGE KOUZOU

Abstract: A personal mobile communications system comprises base stations (4-1-4-4) located in respective zones and a paging station (8) covering an area including the zones, or cells (5-1-5-4). The paging station and all base stations are connected to a public switched telephone network (PSTN). When a call is originated from a PSTN user (2) to a mobile user (10), the paging station receives a call-setup request from the PSTN containing the address codes of both PSTN and mobile users, and broadcasts the call-setup signal over the covered cells. One or more base stations (4-1-4-3) receive the call-setup signal and, in response, broadcast an alert signal. One of the base stations (4-2) receives an off-hook signal from the alerted mobile station (10) and dials the PSTN user address code contained in the call-setup signal to the PSTN to establish a connection (15; 147-149; 176-178) between the calling and called parties (2, 10).

Abstract: An ink jet pen supply cartridge having a spring biased ink bag with a visual indication of remaining ink quantity. The spring-bag reservoir tends to collapse laterally as the ink supply decreases due to differential pressure exerted thereto. The spring-bag is contained in a rigid cartridge and a pair of flexible tape members (13, 14) are cemented or welded, one to each side of the spring-bag, and extend generally parallel toward a narrow end surface of the cartridge at which they overlap and can be viewed through a window (25). The overlapping relationship of the tape members (13, 14) provide ink quantity indicia which change as the spring-bag collapse draws them past each other.

Abstract: A magnetoresistive sensor based on the spin valve effect in which a component of the read element resistance varies as the cosine of the angle between the magnetization directions in two adjacent magnetic layers is described. The sensor read element includes two adjacent ferromagnetic layers (33,37) separated by a non-magnetic metallic layer, the magnetic easy axis of each of the ferromagnetic layers being aligned along the longitudinal axis of the ferromagnetic layers and perpendicular to the trackwidth of an adjacent magnetic storage medium. The sense current flowing in the sensor element generates a bias field which sets the direction of magnetization in each ferromagnetic layer at an equal, but opposite, angle ϑ with respect to the magnetic easy axis thus providing an angular separation of 2ϑ in the absence of an applied magnetic signal. The magnetizations of both ferromagnetic layers are responsive to an applied magnetic field to change their angular separation by an amount 2δϑ.

Abstract: Interlaced images are generated in an electronic camera from a progressive scan sensor (20) employing a mosaic color filter array pattern. A timing and control section (27) operates the camera in two modes, including a high quality progressive scan still mode for capture of still images and a pseudo-interlaced video resolution mode for driving a color viewfinder display (10). In the latter mode, the timing and control section (27) enables a fast dump structure (72) on the sensor (20) to eliminate two or more consecutive lines of image charge for every one or more lines of image charge that are transferred to its horizontal register (70) for readout, thereby generating a pattern of lines suitable for interlaced readout. More specifically, the mosaic pattern of the color filter array is preserved in the interlaced readout for faithful color reproduction on the viewfinder display (10).

Abstract: A mechanism used in connection with determining a time resolved interaction between a target substance, for instance, an adsorbent and at least one agent, for instance, an adsorbate capable of interacting with the target substance. In accordance with the method the target substance and agent(s) are introduced into a sample vessel. At the same time, the target substance is oscillated within the sample vessel without changing the volume of the sample vessel. A concentration of one or more components associated with the time resolved interaction as a function of time is measured by measuring chamber pressure and simultaneously performing a mass spectroscopical analysis of chamber content at discrete time intervals. The target substance is oscillated by a mechanical movement which oscillates a sample holder configured to hold the target substance. The movement has a finger-like member, preferably formed by welded steel bellows and a curved member rotating within the finger-like member so that motion of the finger-like member does not change chamber volume and therefore effect the pressure measurements that are to be made in accordance with the method.

Abstract: A charge transfer imager useful for charge summing includes a photosensitive area for producing image charge, a floating diffusion for converting the image charge to a voltage, an output register for transferring the image charge to the floating diffusion, and an output circuit including the floating diffusion for producing an output signal that contains image information as a function of the difference between a predetermined reference level and an image level, both levels characterized by respective relatively constant pedestal regions. The imager is part of an imaging device that includes a clock generator for generating a reset signal of predetermined frequency that resets the voltage level of the floating diffusion, and for generating a transport signal that is applied to the output register for shifting the image charge to the floating diffusion at a multiple of the reset clock frequency. By modifying the symmetry of the transitions of the transport signal waveform that cause shifting of the image charge, an asymmetrical pattern of transition is obtained which accordingly affects charge transfer and widens the pedestal regions of the output signal, making them more suitable for subsequent sampling pulse placement.
