Patent EP-0497491-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ZIRNGIBL MARTIN
IPC: H01S3/07
Filed: 1992-01-22
Abstract: In this invention an optical fiber doped with a rare earth element and coupled to be pumped with a laser is coupled to an optical feedback loop. The feedback loop couples the output signal of the fiber amplifier to the input of the fiber amplifier. A narrow bandwidth filter coupled to the feedback loop allows a selected wavelength of the amplified spontaneous emission to pass from the output of the fiber amplifier to the input of the fiber amplifier. The feedback signal has a wavelength which is different from that of the pump signal and the wavelengths of the signals to be amplified. in operation, when bursts of optical signals from at least two discrete word or frequency division multiplexed channels are amplified in the fiber amplifier, the undesired fluctuations of gain of the output signals normally due to transient saturabon of the erbium-doped filter amplifier are substantially eliminated.

Abstract: Each of a plurality of moving bodies (3-1,...3-n) detects its present location, e.g., by using a position-determining signal transmitted from a GPS satellite (6), and transmits positional information to a center control apparatus (1). Based on the positional information from the respective moving bodies, the center control apparatus generates necessary image information and displays (11) positions of the respective moving bodies such that they are superimposed on a map (A) including the operating area. The center control apparatus transmits (5), to the respective moving bodies, information necessary for their operation, e.g., traffic information. In each moving body, such information is displayed on its display (28) or reproduced in the form of a voice.

Abstract: An extensible set of auxiliary services for objects in an object-oriented system. Every object in an object-oriented system is implemented by an associated object manager. Each object manager in the present invention has an associated object manager identifier that identifies the object manager. Each object manager in the system can optionally provide various auxiliary services for objects that the object manager implements. These auxiliary services are objects implemented by the object manager itself, or by another object manager. For a particular type of auxiliary service, different object managers may provide different auxiliary services. For example, two object managers may provide two different freeze-melt services. For each type of auxiliary service type, there is a well-known context in which auxiliary services of that type are associated with names. For each type of auxiliary service, there is also a well-known function that transforms an object manager identifier into a name. When a client of an object needs to access an auxiliary service for an object, the client first invokes an operation within the object that provides the object manager identifier for the object manager that manages the object. The client then passes the object manager identifier to the well-known function for the desired type of auxiliary service that transforms the object manager identifier into a name. The client resolves the transformed name within a well-known context for the type of auxiliary service desired to obtain a representation of the desired auxiliary service.
