Abstract: In a method of detecting a repetition frequency of a measured signal, in order to detect the waveform repetition frequency of the measured signal with high accuracy even in the presence of a frequency fluctuation in the measured signal, the repetition frequency of the measured signal acquired by the conventional method is used as a provisional repetition frequency, and the frequency change amount of the specified signal obtained in the case where the measured signal is sampled sequentially with a sampling frequency greatly changed from the provisional sampling frequency to generate a frequency fold at the time of sampling is detected. Based on the detected frequency change amount of the specified signal and the change amount of the sample number indicating how many times the frequency fold has occurred in the process, the error contained in the sampling number with a frequency fluctuation contained in the measured signal is calculated. Then, based on the error contained in this sample number, the provisional repetition frequency of the measured signal is corrected, thereby calculating the regular repetition frequency of the measured signal.

Abstract: A radio communication system minimizes power consumption against noises. The system includes a first radio terminal (10A) with a first transmitter (40A) for transmitting a first data indicative of a specific event, and a second radio terminal (40A) with a battery (14B) and a receiver (20B). The first radio terminal (10A) includes a first bit interpolator (32A) which inserts a check bit pattern of 01010101 at a predetermined cycle into one frame of the first data. The second radio terminal (10B) has a second power controller (60B) which intermittently activates the second receiver (20B) at predetermined intervals in order to receive the bit-interpolated data from the first transmitter. A check bit detector (24B) is included in the second radio terminal (10B) to detect the check bit pattern from within the bit interpolated data and to issue a stop signal immediately upon occurrence of that the check bit pattern fails to appear at said predetermined cycle within a predetermined time frame shorter than one frame length of the first data. In response to the stop signal, the power controller of the second radio terminal terminates a current receiving operation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a glow plug capable of preventing a deformation or eccentricity of the coil, improving a durability of the coil and preventing a variation in temperature rising characteristic. Also, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing the glow plug. A sheath heater 3 of the glow plug includes a metal sheath tube 7 having a closed front end, a heating coil 9 or the like joined to a front end of the tube and accommodated in the sheath tube 7, a rod-like insulator 11 inserted in the heating coil 9 or the like, and insulating powders filled in gaps between the sheath tube 7, a rod-like insulator 11 and the heating coil 9. A front end taper portion 11a having a smaller outer diameter than a outer diameter of a general portion of the insulator 11 is formed on the front end side of the insulator 11. Prior to a swaging step, the insulator 11 is inserted in the heating coil 9 or the like, and the front end taper portion 11a is disposed inside of a taper-shaped reduced diameter portion 9a of the heating coil 9. Thus, influence of the swaging step on the taper-shaped reduced diameter portion 9a can be reduced.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un instrument et un procédé destinés à caractériser des systèmes optiques apparentés à l'œil, comprenant l'œil humain vivant (18), lesquels instruments et procédés mettent en jeu le balayage d'un faisceau lumineux d'éclairage (22) provenant d'une source de lumière et une unité de détection de lumière (20) d'un élément à un autre d'un réseau de déflecteur de faisceau (12) d'éléments (14) disposés latéralement à travers l'axe optique (16) de l'œil (18). A chaque élément successif (14), le faisceau d'éclairage (22) est dévié pour former un faisceau interrogatif (24) qui est dirigé dans l'œil (18) sous un angle périphérique qui dépend de l'emplacement latéral de l'élément déflecteur. Un faisceau de retour (23) est réfléchi ou rétrodiffusé à partir de la cornée (38) et renvoyé par l'intermédiaire du même élément déflecteur à la source de lumière et à l'unité de détection (20). Ceci permet aux faisceaux interrogatifs d'être balayés de manière suffisamment rapide dans l'œil pour réduire fortement la variation de la fixation de l'œil et du regard qui accompagne d'autres procédés de mesure de la réfraction ou de l'aberration périphérique d'un œil naturel. En plus ou à la place du balayage du faisceau d'éclairage (22) sur chaque élément (14) du réseau (12), la totalité ou de multiples éléments (14) du réseau (12) peuvent être éclairés simultanément et les multiples rayons interrogatifs (24) ainsi générés peuvent être commandés par l'utilisation d'une plaque à fenêtre d'affichage à cristaux liquides (26). En variante, une plaque à fenêtre d'affichage à cristaux liquides (28) peut être interposée entre un faisceau d'éclairage large (22) et actionnée pour éclairer sélectivement le déflecteur de faisceau.
