Abstract: A first doped region (20) is grown on a semiconductor substrate (1) as a superlattice region comprising alternate layers (21, 22) of a first and a second semiconductor material followed by a waveguide region (30) comprising at least a superlattice region comprising alternate layers (31, 32) of the first and second semiconductor materials. A second doped region (40) is then grown as a superlattice comprising alternate layers (41, 42) of the first and second semiconductor materials on the waveguide region (30). The first and second doped regions (20 and 40) are grown so that the layers (21, 22, 41, 42) of the first and second semiconductor materials are sufficiently thin and are sufficiently highly doped as to become disordered during growth so that the first and second doped regions (20 and 40) are formed by an alloy of the first and second semiconductor materials having a lower refractive index and larger bandgap than the waveguide superlattice region (30). The device may be a semiconductor laser and the waveguide region (30) may be formed as two superlattice regions (30a, 30b) separated by an active region (50) of the laser.

Abstract: A construction of thermal print head is disclosed in which a common support (10) includes a plurality of substrates (12, 13, 14) on which selectively heatable print elements (19) of a plurality of print heads are carried. The substrates are arranged in spaced parallel relation such as to permit deposition of conductors (17, 18, 19, 20) and insulation layers on a face (15) of the substrates. Print element selection and drive circuits (33) may be mounted on the substratres and a printed circuit multi-conductor ribbon cable (22) provides connections to the print heads. The print heads print serially on an item (30) and may be operated to print different portions of a print impression in the same colour with one print ribbon (23) or may print differently coloured portions with different coloured ribbons (23, 24). The thermal print head may be used for printing a franking impression in a postage franking meter.

Abstract: In the moving magnet type meter of the present invention, the coil mounting portions of a bobbin body are projected outwards in a generally arched shape on the central side to form circular arc-like or inclined surfaces, whereby the bobbin body can be made strong against the external pressure induced by the mounting of coils thereon and can be prevented from being deformed. Further, the upper portion of a movable magnet is cen­trally formed with an upwardly projecting shaft support portion for supporting a pointer shaft, and a thrust bearing portion is formed in the lower surface of an upper bobbin body portion in an opposed relation to the upper end face of the said shaft support portion through a pre­determined slight gap, whereby the pointer shaft can be formed in the shape of a straight rod without forming a reduced-diameter portion serving as a thrust bearing, so the fabrication of the pointer shaft is easy and it is possible to maintain the strength of the pointer shaft itself.

Abstract: A sensor input/output system in a main radar system maintains continuous power to the compass interface when the main radar system is shut down. A single level of interrupt handlers is utilized without interrupt nesting or control by task executive software. The sensor input/output system is functionally partitioned such that all the service required by an interrupt is continuously provided until the service is completed. A digital processor for providing the interrupt servicing and control and PROM firmware for storing the interrupt handlers also have backup power continuously applied. Since the processor compass interrupt handler and compass interface are continuously powered, heading synchronization is maintained by the main radar system during power down conditions.

Abstract: An instruction buffer for a digital computer controls the flow of instruction stream to an instruction decoder (32). As each instruction is consumed, a shifter (70) removes the consumed bytes and repositions the remaining bytes into the lowest order positioned. The byte positions left empty are filled by instruction stream bytes retrieved from one of a pair of prefetch buffers (64, 66) or from a virtual instruction cache (28). One prefetch buffer (66) is filled from the instrction cache (28) after being emptied, but prior to those particular bytes being requested to fill the instruction decoder (32). The two-level prefetching allows the relatively slow process of cache access to be performed during noncritical time.

Abstract: In a communications system having transmissions containing certain information-of-interest (147, 149) at predetermined intervals in the transmission, there is provided a method for isolating and processing that information-of-interest. The method is characterized by sensing the start of a transmission (141) and isolating for processing as the information-of-­interest, the information received about instant(s) predeterminally removed in time (145) from the sensed start of transmission (141). Thus, the information-of-interest is isolated principally on the basis of elapsed time. 
     The method for isolating and processing that information-of-­interest is further characterized by sensing (249) the start of a transmission from the received signal power of the transmission exceeding a predetermined threshold (259); AGCing the transmission (233) and attenuating the AGC'd transmission from a maximum level to a desired level before the information-of-interest is expected to arrive; isolating for processing as the information-of-interest, the information received about instant(s) predeterminally removed in time from the sensed start of transmission, by timing (263) the expected interval between the instant that the start of the transmission is sensed and the predetermined instant that the information-in-interest should arrive (whereby the information-of-interest is isolated principally on the basis of elapsed time); tagging the information (247) isolated about that instant for processing; and beginning processing (275) with information just preceeding the isolated information (whereby the reliability of the information detection is enhanced by one-to-several bits).

Abstract: A method is disclosed for representing a variable construct within a structured data stream. Structured data streams typically include a plurality of components, each component having multiple parameters therein. A trigger or other flag element within the data stream is utilized to provide a link or reference to a variable construct definition which has been created by the data stream originator or an independent end user. The variable construct definition is then utilized to determine previously nonexistent data which may then be utilized to process at least a portion of the data stream. In this manner, variable data within a structured data stream may be processed by linking the variable data to a non-variable construct within the data stream.

Abstract: A method of encoding data records comprised of null or variable length fields of data bytes such that the sortability of the resulting string of data is preserved. The first field is examined to determine if it is a null field. A null field is a field containing no data. It should sort out before a field containing any data, even all zeros. If a null field is detected, it is represented in the encoded string of data by a null field indicator. If the field is not a null field, the bytes in the field are examined. Zero value bytes are encoded based on the number of consecutive zero value bytes while non-zero bytes remain unchanged. An end of field indicator desig­nates the end of each field in the resulting string of encoded data.

Abstract: Deterioration of a catalyst of a catalytic converter (15) of an internal combustion engine is detected, during negative feedback control of the air-fuel ratio based on an output signal from at least one of a pair of O₂ sensors (16, 18) disposed respectively upstream and downstream from the catalyst in the exhaust system. The detection is executed after changing the feedback period, which is the period of alternation of a feedback correction coefficient used to control the fuel injection quantity, with the change in period being such as to provide improved accuracy of detection of catalyst deterioration. The change may consist of a single step change, in which the feedback period is set to a specific predetermined value at which the output signal amplitude from the downstream sensor, or the phase difference between the two sensor output signals, should be within predetermined limits if the catalyst is in satisfactory condition.
