Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed that receives a multi-channel digital serial encoded signal and converting it into a synchronized set of binary characters. A charge pump phase-locked loop receives a transmitted reference clock and derives a multi-phase clock from the reference clock. The multi-phase clock is used to control a plurality of multi-bit block assembly circuits. Each assembly circuit receives one channel of the digital signal and produces a multi-bit block or character. The multi-bit block assembly circuit includes an oversampler, a digital phase-locked loop and a byte synchronizer. The oversampler ovesamples the received digital signal under control of the multiphase clock and produces a sequence of oversampled binary data. The digital phase-locked loop receives the oversampled data and selects samples from it depending on the skew characteristics of the sample. The byte synchronizer assembles a sequence of selected bits into a bit block, or character. An interchannel synchronizer receives as input the characters produced by each of the multi-bit block assembly circuits, and selectively delays output of the received characters in order to synchronize the characters of each channel with one another.

Abstract: For the better identification of not-enrolled fingerprint images, images of skin lines of two juxtaposed fingers (1, 2) of a hand are recorded. The orientations of the finger longitudinal axes (L1, L2) with respect to the normal direction (N) are determined and by means of a guidance means (13) a rotation or twisting (W1) of the fingers about their longitudinal axis is largely avoided, so that virtually coinciding, defined partial image quantities (B3, B4) of the complete enrolled fingerprint (A) are detected and transferred by evaluation algorithms into a reduced data quantity. This allows a much greater identification reliability with a smaller storage requirement and simpler evaluation algorithms.

Title: Process for controlling the establishment and operation of paths of transmission (bearers) in a wireless telecommunication system, in particular in a dect-specific rll/wll-system bound into an isdn-system as a local information transmission loop

Abstract: In order to optimise the establishment and operation of paths of transmission in wireless telecommunication systems, in particular a DECT-specific RLL/WLL-system bound into an ISDN-system as a local information transmission loop, as far as the number of paths of transmission used for wireless information transmission is concerned, numbers are allocated to the paths of transmission to avoid collisions during the establishment and operation of the paths of transmission (connections). The resources of the air interface are thus efficiently used. Moreover, the cost of the telecommunication system and susceptibility to errors during the establishment of a connection (establishment of the paths of transmission) are minimised.

Abstract: Article absorbant doté d'une paire de bords longitudinaux opposés et comportant un ensemble absorbant pourvu d'une face interne, d'une face externe et d'une feuille arrière adhérant à la face externe de l'ensemble absorbant. La feuille arrière comporte un substrat à forme qui présente une première zone limite ayant une première longueur de ligne de surface et une deuxième zone limite à deuxième longueur de ligne de surface. Les première et deuxième longueurs de ligne de surface sont de préférence mesurées lorsque le substrat à forme est en position relâchée. La feuille de fond comporte également une zone allongée située au moins partiellement entre les première et deuxième zones. La zone allongée comporte des régions à étirement irrégulier. Il en résulte que la zone allongée est allongée dans un premier sens d'allongement et possède une troisième longueur de ligne de surface mesurée lorsque le substrat formé se trouve en état de relâché. La troisième longueur de ligne de surface est plus grande que les première et deuxième longueurs si bien que la feuille de fond prend une configuration tridimensionnelle macroscopique lorsque la feuille de fond est en position relâchée.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for screening a part of an electrical or electronic circuit, which part is surrounded by an electrically-conductive frame, from absorbing and/or emitting electromagnetic interference fields. The process comprises taking an electrically-conductive screening cap, with an open side bordered by a rim that contains a seating surface, and forming an elastic and electrically-conductive screening seal by directly applying the sealing compound to the seating surface in such a way that the screening seal projects beyond the seating surface. The screening cap is then placed with the screening seal on the electrically-conductive frame to fix the screening cap on the electrically-conductive frame.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods to determine the phase angle of a four stroke internal combustion engine with an odd number of cylinders and without a camshaft detector. According to said methods, recognition of phase angle occurs by emission of a first signal from a crankshaft angle sensor presenting a singularity whereby said signal is placed in relation to a second signal, which is for example a speed signal or an output signal of an inlet-manifold air-pressure sensor and the shape of the second signal is evaluated in the range of singularity of the first signal. As this signal shape is variable according to whether the crankshaft is in first or second revolution, the phase angle can be determined precisely.

Abstract: The design of electrical switches that operate under load (with current flowing) requires replacement of the electrical contact after erosion and wear experienced by arcing and raised temperatures reduce functionality below acceptable limits. A quantity of trace element or compound is implanted at a depth representative of the point at which wear or erosion requires contact replacement. When exposed by wear or erosion, the quantity of the trace element is released into the oil or other medium surrounding the contact, providing an indication of excessive wear.

Abstract: A method for configuring a wireless data packet network comprising a control node and multiple individual nodes includes the following steps: organizing the network into multiple bands Bi each band including individual nodes located i hops away from the control node; assigning a logical address to each individual node. A routing logical address is added to every data packet and each individual node compares its own logical address to the routing address of a received packet. In dependence on the result of the comparison, the packet is discarded, re-transmitted or processed in the node. The network is preferably a packet-hopping wireless network in which data packets are transferred from node to node over a common RF channel.

Abstract: Dans un procédé d'extraction de caractéristiques caractérisant des objets, on isole un objet d'un contexte. En l'occurence, on détermine le contexte constitué d'au moins deux objets. On choisit un objet thème dans le contexte. On extrait des ensembles de caractéristiques de l'objet thème et d'autres objets du contexte. On détermine s'il existe parmi les ensembles de caractéristiques un ensemble de caractéristiques distinctif. En l'absence d'un ensemble de caractéristiques distinctif parmi les ensembles de caractéristiques, on calcule un nouvel ensemble de caractéristiques. Enfin, on enregistre l'un des ensembles de caractéristiques comme résultat. On recommence l'opération de discrimination s'il existe un objet non discriminé par rapport aux autres objets. Le procédé représente une approche sélective de la caractérisation d'objets réalisée sous le pilotage d'une tâche de discrimination. L'invention concerne également un système mettant en pratique le procédé, ainsi qu'un système grâce auquel un vocabulaire commun peut être mis au point de manière autonome par une pluralité d'agents dans lesquels sont incorporés le procédé et/ou le système.
