Abstract: An intermediate optical amplifier stage (11) of an optical amplifier having
cascaded amplifier stages (10,11,12) includes an optical circulator (18) having a first port (18a)
forwardly coupled with a second port (18b) which is forwardly coupled with a third
port (18c), wherein the second port is optically coupled with an orthogonal
polarisation state converting reflector (16) via a length of optically pumped
optically amplifying optical fibre (13). The orthogonal polarisation state converting
reflector may be constituted by the series combination of a collimating lens (16a), a
Faraday rotator (16b) that provides a π/4 plane of polarisation rotation in respect of
a single transit of light through the rotator, and a mirror. An alternative form (26)
of polarisation state converting reflector is constituted by a loop mirror having
a polarisation beam-splitter/combiner (26a) having first and second ports optically
coupled with third and fourth ports via an optical coupling region, wherein the
third and fourth ports are optically coupled via a length of polarisation state
maintaining optical waveguide incorporating a polarisation state conversion
device (26c) that converts to the orthogonal polarisation state the polarisation state
of light launched into it from either direction. The polarisation state
conversion device may be constituted by an optical fibre splice formed
between two pieces of polarisation maintaining fibre spliced together with the
fast axis one fibre aligned with the slow axis of the other.

IPC: G06Q20/42
Filed: 2000-07-31
Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for conducting electronic transactions in a distributed computing environment. A communications protocol is provided that enables reliable transactional state synchronization for peers participating in a distributed transaction. A transaction processing application is deployed on a local computer system to manage transactions thereon. The local computer system contacts a remote computer system to obtain authorization to execute a transaction. The local computer system initiates a failure-recovery job that is operable to automatically resent status signals and other information to the remote system if the communication with the remote system exhibits certain predefined fault conditions. The remote system is able to dynamically adjust the definition of the predefined fault conditions. If the transaction concludes without triggering the predefined fault conditions, the failure-recovery job is cancelled. The transaction processing application may also allow deferred transactions between remote parties. The transaction processing application maintains a record of the transactions performed by the consumer on the consumer's local system. Upon the occurrence of predefined conditions, transactional records are sent to a remote vendor or clearinghouse. The vendor or clearinghouse can manage the risk it bears by setting the predefined conditions appropriately. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A stator assembly has a pair of end holes leading to a hollow region which has a larger diameter than the end holes. The assembly is manufactured around an elongated pole having a diameter equal to the end holes, which is surrounded by a temporary sleeve whose thickness fills the gap between the pole and the inner wall of the hollow region. The pieces of the assembly are placed onto the pole such that the sleeve lies within the hollow region, to thereby align them correctly with one another. After the pieces are secured to each other, the pole is removed, leaving the sleeve within the hollow region, and then the sleeve is removed. The sleeve may be flexible in order to expedite its removal from the hollow, and also may be of a magnetic material that is kept in place by magnetic forces generated by the stator assembly or by the pole.
