Filed: 2001-12-21
Abstract: A heated and pressed printed wiring board (100) is made by
filling via-holes formed in layers of insulating film of the wiring
board (100) with an interlayer conducting material. The insulating
film is stacked with conductor patterns (22), and each conductor
pattern (22) closes a via hole (24). The interlayer conducting
material forms a solid conducting material (51, 52) in the via holes
(24) after a heating a pressing procedure. The solid conducting
material (51, 52) includes two types of conducting materials. The
first type of conducting material (51) includes a metal, and the
second type of conductive material (52) includes an alloy formed
by the metal and conductor metal of the conductor patterns (22).
The conductor patterns (22) are electrically connected reliably
without relying on mere mechanical contact.

Abstract: A micro-lens built-in vertical cavity surface
emitting laser (VCSEL) is provided. In the micro-lens
built-in VCSEL, one focal point of the micro-lens is
positioned at the light generating region of an active
layer. The micro-lens built-in VCSEL has a window whose
size satisfies the Fraunhofer diffraction condition, so
that Fraunhofer diffraction occurring in the window is
offset by the focusing power of the micro-lens. The
micro-lens built-in VCSEL can emit a parallel laser beam,
so that when the VCSEL is applied to an optical
transmission system in the optical communications field
using optical fiber or in the interface field using
optical signals, or to an optical system such as an
optical head for a recording/reproduction apparatus, there
is no need for a condensing lens or collimating lens.
Thus, the optical alignment structure is simple, so that
the optical system production cost is markedly reduced.

Abstract: An IP router with an optical core switches 40-byte packets at OC192 speed in 32 to 40
nanoseconds, with dynamic switch reconfiguration between consecutive packets. Optical
switches have a 64 by 64 cross bar configuration. Embodiments are smoothly scalable from
roughly ten interfaces up to 640 input/output ports. The system contains a central arbiter,
which controls switch configurations, and incorporates redundancy throughout, including
switches, arbiter, facility interface functionality, communication paths, control network,
routing network, and master control processors. The preferred embodiment incorporates one-plus-one
input protection. If there is a failure on any path, an alternate path reliably and
seamlessly carries the traffic. All single point failures are confined to that part of the router
system where they originate. One router need not communicate fault conditions to other
routers to change their internal routing tables. Consequently, the network topology of a very
large network remains static, since any errors in a router are confined within that router or
between a pair of router systems having redundant interfaces. The method incorporates
extensive internal error checking and correcting. The system is designed for no more than 50
milliseconds switchover time due to any single point failure. When a module fails, it can be
hot-swapped with a new module without bringing down the system. High-speed optical
interconnects,  e.g. , between equipment racks, allow rack separations of up to 150 meters.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of monitoring a moving linear textile
formation (4) in which the monitored linear textile formation (4) moves across
a radiation flux emitted by a radiation source (3) in the direction towards an
optical sensor (1) comprising a raw of radiation-sensitive measuring elements
(10) and thus producing on the optical sensor (1) a shadow of the moving
linear textile formation (4) to be evaluated for determining the required
parameters of the monitored moving linear textile formation (4). The invention
consists in that the monitoring of the moving linear textile formation (4) by
the optical sensor (1) is carried out with a radiation intensity at which the
radiation-sensitive measuring elements (4) of the optical sensor (1) are
irradiated at least at the level of their saturation, thus permitting for the
evaluation of the function of the optical sensor (1) a more exact division of
the radiation-sensitive measuring elements (10) into those completely
shadowed, those partly shadowed and partly irradiated, and those completely
irradiated, with the ensuing more exact definition of the position of
the delimitation lines of the moving linear textile formation (4) projected on
the optical sensor (1), these delimitation lines being in more exact
coincidence with the real state of the moving linear textile formation (4) which
leads to a simpler and more exact determination of the parameters of the
moving linear textile formation (4). 
The invention relates also to a device for carrying out the method.

light projection. N images are captured with a shutter speed varying by
successively multiplying an initial value by (I/A). Values of density of each
pixel in the captured images are summed. Values of constants B and C in
equations: 1 = B·Zmax + C; 0 = B·Zmin + C are obtained based on the
maximum value Zmax and the minimum value Zmin of the summed values of
