Granted: 2003-04-16
Abstract: A method of high efficiency generation of ions of desired polarity, which includes the steps of positioning a first electrode at a predetermined spacing from a second electrode having a closed shape configuration, applying to both electrodes a direct voltage of the same polarity, at the same time as applying the direct voltage, applying high voltage pulses to the first electrode only, thereby to cause ion generation in the vicinity of the first electrode and to set up a rapidly moving ion stream from the first to the second electrode along an electrical field therebetween, wherein the duration of the pulses is shorter than the time taken for the ion stream to reach the second electrode, and wherein ions in the ion stream have the same polarity as the second electrode, thereby to be repelled and concentrated as they flow through the second electrode. The method may also include the generation of a stream of ions, with reduced ozone content, which includes the additional step of applying a negative pressure gradient to the ion stream, thereby to deflect ozone generated by the corona discharge to a direction different from that of the flow of ions.

Abstract: The invention concerns the technical sector of optimization of industrial production, and especially of productivity. The general concept of the invention is the identification of the malfunction that is truly responsible for the stoppage of a machine production line, and the introduction of this specific variable into the man-machine interface for the handling of malfunctions. The true cause of a given breakdown is thus identified and can be acted upon, instead of acting upon secondary breakdowns down the line; the management of productivity is thereby very noticeably improved.

Abstract: A storage and dispensing apparatus for a springy guide wire used in medical procedures includes a coiled tubular portion defined by elongate tubing with a bore for receiving the guide wire. A ring section includes a tangential portion of the tubing defining an open end from which the guide wire may be dispensed. Adjacent to the tangential portion, the tubing defines a pair of spaced apart openings from which the guide wire respectively exits and reenters the tubing. Intermediate the pair of openings the tubing defines a curved external surface across which the guide wire runs externally of the tubing and is manually accessible for advancing and retracting movements impelled by a user's thumb, for example. The guide wire defines a pair of gentle S-shaped bends adjacent to the ends of the externally-exposed curved section, which bends cause the guide wire to engage sufficiently with the storage and dispensing apparatus to resist self-ejection.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring and managing the loading conditions in a CDMA wireless communication system. The system comprises a load monitoring device such as a CDMA mobile station connected to a data logging and processing device such as a diagnostic monitor. The monitoring device is placed within the service area of a base station. The monitoring device periodically initiates a call, is assigned to a traffic channel normally, and logs a power control parameter such as mobile station transmit power or the number of closed-loop power control commands received per unit time. From this information, the load monitoring device can infer the real-time traffic loading conditions of the base station. If the loading of the system exceeds a predetermined threshold, an alarm may be sent to the system management center in order to take some action to limit additional loading on the base station.

Abstract: A digital optical receiver and clock recovery circuit for use in detecting and retiming optical data transmitted at rates up to and exceeding 40 Gb/s. The receiver is made, in part, of superconducting Josephson junctions. The receiver includes an optical signal detector, an SFQ (single flux quantum) transition detector for converting the signal from the photodetector into a stream of single flux quantum signals, and a clock recovery circuit. The clock recovery circuit includes a superconducting ring oscillator in which an SFQ pulse rotates and provides a clock signal at an output of the oscillator. When a pulse from the stream of single flux quantum pulses arrives from the transition detector, two pulses are generated in the ring oscillator. One of the pulses eliminates the rotating SFQ pulse and the second pulse replaces the rotating SFQ pulse, thereby recovering the phase of the clock signal in one bit.
