Abstract: A multi-class connection admission control (CAC) method that
supports cell loss and delay requirements. In this model-based CAC, the
source traffic is described in terms of the usage parameter control (UPC)
parameters. Through analysis and approximations, simple closed-form
methods to calculate the bandwidth required to meet guarantees on quality
of service (QoS) are used. In addition to being robust, the CAC achieves a
high level of resource utilization and can be easily implemented for real-time
admission control.

Abstract: The objective of this invention is to solve two sorts of
problems in an engine using a chain transmission scheme with
the camshaft (24) as the output shaft. One set of problems
results from the stretching of the chain (27). The other concerns
lining up the crankshaft (23) and camshaft (24) during
assembly. 
     With this invention, power is transmitted from the
crankshaft (23) to the camshaft (24) by means of a silent
chain (27). The said silent chain is tensioned before use to
suppress its initial tendency to stretch. The chain is installed
so that the slack in the chain is 1 to 2% looser than
its theoretically calculated distance value between the
crankshaft and the camshaft. (A chain tensioner is not used.)
One or several marks (Mc, Ms) are provided on the opposed surfaces
of the aforesaid silent chain (27) and the two sprockets
(25, 26) to help match the positions of the crankshaft
and camshaft.

Abstract: A pair of first magnetic bodies (33a, 33b) extending in a direction of an X-axis are so disposed as to be opposed to each other on the X-axis in order to shield an external magnetic field acting on three electron beams lined side by side in the direction of X-axis. A pair of arcuated second magnetic bodies (60a, 60b) are disposed symmetric with respect to the X-axis in the vicinity of a Y-axis at a predetermined distance from a ring-shaped six-pole magnet plate (30). The first magnetic bodies, second magnetic bodies and six-pole magnet plate are arranged in this positional relationship, whereby a predetermined magnetic field distribution is created. Cathodes (46) of an electron gun structure are arranged in such a position that a sum of a positive magnetic field component is substantially equal to a sum of the negative magnetic field component on the trajectory of a center beam. Thereby, a force component acting on the center beam can be reduced without reducing force components acting on both side beams, and undesirable movement of the center beam can be prevented. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process and apparatus is described to improve halftone image quality by
integrating different halftoning algorithms and managing their transitions based on
image content. The method works by applying different halftoning methods to
different regions of a continuous-tone image. Regions of the continuous-tone image
are evaluated to determine suitability for halftoning by at least two different halftoning
methods. The most suitable halftoning method is then used to halftone a particular
region. An activity index is used to evaluate each region. A halftoning method such as
error diffusion is deemed most suitable for application to detailed continuous-tone
image areas. A halftoning method such as smooth dither is deemed most suitable for
application to flat continuous-tone image areas . Also, hysteresis can be introduced to
compensate for sharp transitions in the image and thereby eliminate ghosting.

Abstract: Described herein are a capstanless tape recording
apparatus and a recording method using the same. An input
signal (analog signal) is first converted into a data
signal by an AID converter (13) based on a sampling
frequency generated by first signal generating means
(crystal oscillator) (12). Thereafter, the data signal is
re-converted into a recording signal (analog signal) by a
D/A converter (9) based on control clocks generated by
second signal generating means, which in turn is recorded
on a recording tape through a head. Since each control
clock referred to above is time-base modulated while
following an error signal detected by a TSS, the D/A
converted recording signal will also result in a time-base
modulated one. Thus, since the recording signal is
modulated in accordance with error components upon
recording, high-accuracy recording is allowed.

Abstract: A device structure provides improved efficiency of light emission from a light
emitting element made of silicon while rendering such emission electrically
controllable. Silicon in the light emitting element comprises fine microcrystals, which
are miniaturized sufficiently to cause a quantum size effect. The microcrystals may be
10 nanometers (nm) or less in grain size. A dielectric film of 5 nm thick or less is
formed containing therein such microcrystals. The microcrystal structure section is
disposed between p- and n-type semiconductor layers. These layers are brought into
electrical contact with the microcrystal structure only, while causing the remaining
portions to be electrically insulative by a dielectric film or the like Elementary
particles of the opposite polarities, e.g. electrons and holes, are injected by tunnel effect
into the microcrystals resulting in emission of light rays with increased efficiency.

Abstract: A communication system includes a transmit path (325), a receive path
(345) and a loopback structure (350). The loopback configuration utilizes an error
vector analyzer (355) as a post-processor. The loopback test precludes the inclusion of
the demodulator (335) in the loopback so that measurements can be taken even if the
modulation formats of the transmit and receive paths are different. As a consequence,
the error vector loopback test does not require external test mobiles for generating the
proper modulation signal for the receive path. The error vector loopback test
characterizes the RF performance of the transmit and receive paths in the base station
and may include the A/D and D/A converters (320,340). The loopback test can be
employed with internal built-in test processors or external test sets to provide generally
complete RF analysis and evaluation.

Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging method and
apparatus are presented which separates broadband
linear and nonlinear echo signal components while
simultaneously distinguishing the effects of motion.
The inventive method maps ultrasonic echo signals in
the r.f. (time) domain to Doppler shift frequencies
in the Doppler domain in a way that depends upon the
linearity of the echoes. The inventive method does
this by analyzing the phase shifts between successive
echoes. Apparatus is described in which a Doppler
echo ensemble is acquired by a transmit sequence of
cyclically phase-varying waveforms. When the echoes
of the ensemble are combined during Doppler
processing, the resulting Doppler spectrum is divided
into separate regions, with odd harmonics (e.g.,
linear signal components) residing in one region and
even harmonics (e.g., second harmonic signal
components) residing in another region. In a
preferred embodiment a Doppler wall filter is used to
delineate a particular type of signal information for
processing, such as tissue motion, harmonic contrast
agent, or tissue harmonic imaging information.

Ces générateurs d'oxygène singulet ont une productivité accrue du fait de la présence de fractions aromatiques ancrées aux molécules, ces fractions absorbant le rayonnement ultraviolet et le ré-émettant sous forme de fluorescence à une longueur d'onde que l'oxygène singulet est à même d'absorber, produisant un motif photosensibilisant. L'augmentation du nombre de photons possédant une longueur d'onde susceptible d'absorption se solde par un renforcement de la production d'oxygène singulet.
