Granted: 2002-11-12
Abstract: This headlamp comprises a reflector and a discharge lamp comprising an inner envelope having a longitudinal axis coinciding with the optical axis of the reflector. The inner envelope includes a bulbous portion, a front leg extending along the optical axis from the bulbous portion toward the front of the headlamp, and a back leg extending along the optical axis from the bulbous portion toward the reflector.      The discharge lamp further comprises a tubular shroud comprising a first hollow portion surrounding the front leg of the inner envelope, a second hollow portion surrounding the bank leg of the inner envelope, and a bulbous portion between the two hollow portions. The front leg is provided with a large-diameter integral enlargement (referred to herein as a "large-diameter maria"), and the shroud is joined to the front leg by a maria seal located at the outer periphery of this maria. The shroud is joined to the back leg of the inner envelope by a low-profile seal of substantially smaller diameter than the large-diameter maria seal located much closer to the longitudinal axis of the inner envelope than is the large-diameter maria seal.      The bulbous portion of the shroud has (i) a back zone facing the reflector of generally ellipsoidal configuration and (ii) a central axis upwardly offset by a small distance from the longitudinal axis of the inner envelope. This offset has been found to substantially increase the ratio of the seeing light to the glare light in the headlamp beam.

Abstract: A communication apparatus capable of measuring levels of carrier signals used in adjacent zones during telecommunication with a small circuit scale, and capable of simultaneously transmitting/receiving to FDMA-system signals through a plurality of communication channels. All of transmission signals received through the communication channels under use are wholly converted into an intermediate signal by a mixer. The intermediate signal is quadrature-detected and then A/D-converted into digital I/Q-channel signals by A/D-converters. Thereafter, the digital I/Q-channel signals are frequency-converted by frequency converting circuits in such a manner that center frequencies of these I/Q-channel signals become zero, two sets of I/Q-channel signals may be demodulated by two sets of demodulating circuits. Otherwise, one of these I/Q-channel signals is demodulated by a single demodulating circuit, and the other is level-detected by a level detecting circuit.

Title: Method and system for licensing program management within a distributed data processing system
Inventor: FOSDICK ERIC L
IPC: G06F1/00
Filed: 1996-07-26
Granted: 2000-06-20
Abstract: A method and system for managing utilization of licensed program within a distributed data processing system having a number of local systems which minimizes the amount of network communication traffic required for such management. Each permitted use of a licensed program by a distributed data processing system is indicated by a use token which may be transferred to selected systems throughout the distributed data processing system. These use tokens are then periodically redistributed throughout the distributed data processing system in response to a requested usage by a particular system within the distributed dataprocessing system. A use token transferred to a particular system is then maintained at that system upon completion of the usage until such time as a request for usage of the licensed program requires transfer of the use token to another system. In this manner the use tokens are effectively distributed throughout the distributed data processing system such that those systems most likely to request usage of the licensed program will maintain possession of the use tokens, minimizing network communication traffic.

Granted: 1999-03-30
Abstract: A call classifier (300, 500) for recognizing cadenced signals (100-103) is based on data tables (110, 111) whose contents define the cadences of the signals that need to be recognized. Consequently, the call classifier may be adapted forrecognizing the cadenced signals of various signaling schemes that are used in various countries or telecommunication systems, simply by reprogramming the datacontents of the data tables. Each cadenced signal comprises a different pattern of interleaved signal-on (P) intervals and signal-off (S) intervals. A separate cadence timing table-pair (200-204) corresponds to each sequential S/P interval-pair. Each table-pair includes a P table (210) and an S table (211) each having a plurality of entries (220, 221) each corresponding to a different duration of the corresponding P interval and S interval, respectively, and identifying those signals which have the corresponding P interval and S interval duration, respectively, as candidates for a received signal. The durations of sequential ones of the P and S intervals of the cadence pattern of the received signal are measured (303, 304) and applied (305,306) as pointers to sequential ones of the cadence timing table-pairs to select the corresponding table entries. The selected table entries are ANDed (307) with each other until only one candidate remains in the result (308). The one candidate identifies the received signal. Because reception of a signal can begin anywherewithin the signal's cadence pattern, the table-pairs are initially used (500) to identify when the end of one and the beginning of another instance of the cadence pattern has been received.
