Abstract: A multiprotocol transport network (MPTN) gateway provides transparent interconnection of two or more SPTNs (12, 14, 16, 18) running different transport layer protocols to form an integrated heterogeneous MPTN. The MPTN gateway of the present invention has no dependencies on the particular transport protocols running on the SPTNs being interconnected as it utilizes a common transport provider (a Gateway Services Protocol Boundary (GSPB)) (38) between the SPTN transport protocols and the gateway components. The MPTN gateway supports connections between end systems across multiple intermediate networks. The MPTN gateway provides automatic routing based on dynamic participation in the routing protocols of the interconnected SPTNs so that any number of gateways may be interconnected and in any topology desired. As the MPTN gateway has a general architecture and acquires routing information automatically, it supports not only other MPTN nodes and gateways but also non-MPTN nodes and gateways.

Abstract: An optical current transformer in which an influence of a temperature change in a magneto-optic sensor unit is compensated to conduct measurements with high accuracy by the following structure: Between two polarizers 4 and 5 having mutually different transmission polarized light directions, a Faraday rotator 6 is disposed to form a magneto-optic sensor unit. Light beams from optical transmission units 2 and 2' are inputted to the magneto-optic sensor unit in opposite directions. Two light sources 7 and 7' for emitting the input light beams emit light beams having the same waveform characteristics. Light beams outputted from the magneto-optic sensor unit are converted to electric signals by photoelectric conversion units 8 and 8'. Two light beams traveling through the magneto-optic sensor unit in mutually opposite directions are subjected to intensity modulation by using mutually different frequencies. From the electric signals after photoelectric conversion, intensity-modulated frequency components are selectively extracted. The change of quantity of light caused in two light beams by the Faraday effect is derived by differential computation.

Abstract: A system and method for collision warning utilize a sensor (58) to determine an inter-vehicle distance and/or closing rate relative to a forward vehicle. A predicted vehicle road load is determined using a predetermined number of previous road load values which is then utilized to determine whether the vehicle has sufficient deceleration capability so as to avoid a collision without operator intervention. The vehicle road load accounts for various forces both internal and external to the vehicle which resist forward motion including those due to gravity and aerodynamic drag, and those provided by an engine retarder or downshifting of an automatic transmission. The present invention thus avoids spurious collision indications.

The latter includes a matrix, a stretchable, thermoplastic base material, which after processing is partially crystalline or amorphously hardened. This sheet also contains a dispersion of added particles, which can be mixed-in and extruded with the thermoplastic, forming a heterogeneous mixture. The particles are at least partially released from the matrix during a subsequent mechanical process. Thus numerous regions of the surface are raised to form a velvety texture. Also claimed is a process to make the composite sheet, as described, with the following additional features. Carrier sheet elastomer may or may not have high expansibility and resilience. The composite is stretched, within its limiting extensibility; to releases and expose the particles. On release, the composite retracts fully or partly, the particles still projecting.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the degree of bending in a bent glass sheet. The measuring is effected by means of cameras (1) having a common imaging field within the boundaries of a surface being measured. The cameras are set at an arbitrary but stationary angle relative to each other. This prior known principle is useful also in the application of the invention, as the glass surface along a profile to be measured is made visible to the cameras by means of an illuminating line (7) whose light has a high intensity over the wavelength range of 250-330 nm. Hence, an extremely thin film of tin, left on the glass surface in the manufacture thereof, becomes visible.
