Abstract: A first tunable wavelength pulse light source (22)
is driven by a reference signal to emit a first optical
pulse. An optical demultiplexer (24) demultiplexes a
first optical pulse emitted from the first pulse light
source (22) into a reference optical pulse and an
incident optical pulse to be sent into an object to be
measured. An optical multiplexer (26) multiplexes the
reference optical pulse and an outgoing optical pulse
passing through the object to output multiplexed light.
A second pulse light source (23) generates a second
optical pulse which is synchronous with the first
optical pulse and delays a predetermined time for each
period of the first optical pulse. A sampling unit (27,
27a, 27b) receives the multiplexed light and the second
optical pulse to obtain an optical pulse train signal
proportional to the intensity of the multiplexed light
obtained in synchronism with the second optical pulse.
From the optical pulse train signal from the sampling
unit (27, 27a, 27b), a signal processor (37) obtains an
envelope formed by peaks of individual optical pulses
forming the optical pulse train. The wavelength
dispersion of the object is obtained by measuring the
delay time of the outgoing optical pulse passing
through the object on the basis of intervals between
the peaks of the envelope.

Abstract: A rodless cylinder actuator for moving a slide table in
machine tools is disclosed. In the actuator, two pneumatic or
hydraulic cylinders are parallely arranged to be directed in
opposite directions. At least one pulley is rotatably mounted
to the outside end of the piston rod of each cylinder using a
bracket. A wire is fixed to the cover of a cylinder housing
at both ends thereof and passes over the pulleys of the two
piston rods. The slide table is mounted to the middle portion
of the wire, thus being linearly and longitudinally
reciprocable on the top surface of the cylinder housing in
accordance with a movement of the piston rods relative to the
two cylinders. A connection rod extends between the brackets
of the two piston rods, thus maintaining a desired interval
between the two brackets. The rodless cylinder actuator of
this invention has a simple construction capable of reducing
the production cost of such actuators. Due to such a simple
construction, the actuator is rarely broken and is easily
repaired. This finally reduces the repairing and maintenance
cost of such actuators. The actuator also rarely causes
safety hazards during an operation.

Abstract: A method for removing "grid line artifacts" from x-ray
images without changing the diagnostic quality of the x-ray image is
presented. The method utilizes the Fourier spectrum (216) of the
image to detect the grid line frequencies and employs spectral
domain filtering to remove the grid line spectral components. The
diagnostic information is preserved by modifying (214,212) the grid
line spectral components to be indistinguishable from local
variations in image intensity values, and edge density of the x-ray
image.
