Title: Dynamic cable with improved properties, and process and facility for the manufacture of said cable
Inventor: LABOURE PATRICK
IPC: D07B1/16
Filed: 2002-05-14
Abstract: The cable (9) is made from a number of strands (2) wound round a core (1), with the spaces between the strands and core filled with a polymer material. The polymer is applied in the form of a polymerizable compound by an injection head (15) situated upstream of the cabling point (13). The cable (9) is made from a number of strands (2) wound round a core (1), with the spaces between the strands and core filled with a polymer material. The polymer is applied in the form of a polymerizable compound by an injection head (15) situated upstream of the cabling point (13). The position of the head being determined so that the strands are wound round the core when the polymerisation is at a sufficiently viscoplastic state to ensure a continuous coating while being fluid enough to fill the spaces between the core and strands, and between the strands. The compound can be applied to the core alone or to the core and strands, and is made up just before application by mixing predetermined proportions of a pre polymer containing isocyanates and a polymerisation accelerator. The cable is made from core strands (5) from reels (11) and outer winding strands (2) from reels (14) passing through a cabling head (13) after the polymer injection head (15) with a mixing chamber connected to tanks containing the pre-polymer and polymerisation accelerator.

Title: Low complexity multiple bits matched filter
Inventor: YANG LIN
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2000-09-08
Abstract: Method and system for carrier recovery and estimation of Doppler shift from a signal source that is moving relative to a signal receiver. A pure carrier preamble for the received signal is processed through each of two stages of a linear predictor to obtain a successively more accurate estimation of a Doppler frequency offset for the carrier. The received signal is downconvert ed by each stage estimation of the Doppler frequency offset, and the downconverted signal is processed through a decision feedback phase locked loop to provide a signal in which substantially all of the Doppler offset and/or phase angle are identified and removed. The system has low complexity , is fast, and is accurate to within an estimated few tens of Hertz and will work with signals having relatively low signal-to-noise ratios. The inventio n is useful for receipt of signals from satellites in low earth orbits (LEOs) and other non-geosynchronous orbits, and wherever a transmitter and receiver  are moving relative to each other.

Title: Method for manufacturing multi-laminar wood sheets with printed patterns
Inventor: SENZANI GIOVANNA
IPC: B27L5/00
Filed: 2002-07-08
Abstract: A method for manufacturing multi-laminar wood sheets by slicing from a flitch of natural and/or laminated wood sheets glued and pre-printed with a basic pattern. According to the method, a basic pattern is printed on one or both faces of wood sheets obtained by rotary cutting or slicing a natural log or a multi-layered flitch; the printed sheets are subsequently used to form a final flitch from which multi--laminar wood sheets are then sliced having a pattern designed to simulate different types of natural or fancy woods. The basic pattern is printed while maintaining process conditions designed to control the penetration into the thickness of the wood sheet and surface diffusion of the colouring agent during printing step. The penetration and diffusion of the colouring agent is controlled by maintaining specific temperature and pH conditions, and by controlling the quantity of colouring agent lay down on the surface of the wood sheets during the printing of the pattern.
