Abstract: A system and method for the segmentation of data exhibiting an intrinsic long-term average data rate, punctuated with periods of peak rate data bursts. This segmentation conditions the data for efficient transmission via either a renegotiated constant bit-rate ("RCBR") network or a renegotiated variable bit-rate network ("RVBR") network. Within these networks, data transmission rates between a sender and a recipient are rapidly renegotiated as a function of previously stored data transmission demand information and system buffer levels. Such a system that is responsive to the rate at which new calls or requests for connections enter and leave the network, the frequency and duration of extended peak rate data bursts, as well as the occurrence of short duration data transmission peaks.

Abstract: An introducer (10) and method of percutaneously deploying a self-expanding stent (14) in a body vessel or duct (43). The stent introducer includes an outer elongated member tube (11) having a passage (12) extending longitudinally therein and operable in a first direction (13) for deploying the self-expanding stent in a collapsed condition from the outer member passage. An inner elongated member (15) is positioned in the outer member passage and is operable in a second direction (16) for deploying the stent from the outer member passage. An interconnection mechanism (17) is connected to the outer and inner members for operation thereof, whereby a stent in a collapsed condition is deployed from the outer member passage to an expanded condition. When deployed, the expanded portion of the stent remains fixedly positioned longitudinally in the body vessel or duct as the remaining portion is deployed from the outer member passage. The inner member operates a second operable distance (34) and includes at least one protuberance (19) for pushing the stent out of the outer member passage as the outer member is concomitantly withdrawn a first operable distance (33) from the collapsed, self-expanding stent. The first operable distance is the short length (36) of the stent in an expanded condition, whereas the second operable distance (34) is approximately the distance (37) in the long and short lengths of the stent. The interconnection mechanism of the introducer further includes a transfer assembly (23) coupled to the outer and inner members for controlling the travel distance and direction thereof.

Abstract: A modem that operates selectively in the voice-band
frequency band and at higher frequency bands is provided.
This modem supports multiple line codes, like DMT and CAP. 
     The modem uses a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), so
that different existing ADSL line codes, such as Discrete
MultiTone (DMT) and Carrierless AM/PM (CAP), can be
implemented on the same hardware platform. The modem
negotiates in real-time, for a desired line transmission
rate to accommodate line condition and service-cost
requirement. 
     The line code and rate negotiation process may be
implemented at the beginning of each communication session
through the exchange of tones between the modems. A four-step
MDSL modem initialization process is provided for line
code and rate compatibility. 
     A new synchronization startup procedure for CAP based
MDSL modems is provided. The handshake protocol and
receiver algorithm allow reliable modem synchronization
over severely amplitude distorted channels such as standard
telephone twisted-pair wire. The algorithm makes use of a
short length sequence to train a synchronizing equalizer at
the receiver. After training to this sequence, a matched
filter or correlator is used to detect the inverted sync
sequence. The detection of the inverted sequence signals
the start of the normal reference training of the CAP
demodulation equalizers. 
     The MDSL line connection management process provides a
simple, efficient, and flexible interface to manage the
line connection between MDSL-C (MDSL in Central Office
site) and MDSL-R (MDSL in resident site) in the
telecommunication Wide Area Networking environment. An
internal state machine in an MDSL modem records and
monitors the line status and notifies the state change to
the other MDSL and also the host processor. The protocol 
used for exchanging line connection management messages is
a simplified Link Control Protocol (LCP) for MDSL.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un panneau d'affichage plat ou à tout autre dispositif électronique similaire, dans lequel un émetteur d'électrons à film mince (51) et/ou un réseau d'émetteurs (50) est formé dans un film à semi-conducteur (10) à base par exemple de Si, SiCx, SiNy, SiOxNy ou de tout autre matériau similaire microcristallin et/ou amorphe hydrogéné. Une électrode injecteur (14) forme une barrière de potentiel (ΖB ) avec le film à semi-conducteur (10) au niveau d'une grande surface arrière du film (10). Une électrode frontale (15) sert à polariser une zone d'émission (11a) de la grande surface frontale (11) à un potentiel suffisamment positif (V15) par rapport à l'électrode injecteur (14), afin d'injecter des électrons (e) sur la barrière (ΖB) pendant le fonctionnement de l'émetteur (51), tout en commandant l'amplitude d'une couche d'accumulation d'électrons (Ne), dans le film à semi-conducteur (10) au niveau de la zone d'émission (11a). Dans ces conditions de polarisation, le film à semi-conducteur (10) alimente une couche d'appauvrissement allant de l'électrode injecteur (14) à la couche d'accumulation d'électrons (Ne), afin d'établir un champ dans lequel les électrons sont chauffés et dirigés en direction de la zone d'émission (11a). La zone d'émission d'électrons est constituée par une superficie plane (11a) exempte de l'électrode frontale (15) à laquelle elle peut être connectée directement ou par une connexion à grille (G, 29). Certains des électrons provenant de l'électrode injecteur (14) sont émis dans la zone d'émission (11a) tandis que d'autres chauffent les électrons se trouvant dans la couche d'accumulation (Ne) pour stimuler leur émission. L'électrode frontale (15) extrait des électrons non excédentaires n'ayant pas été émis par la zone d'émission (11a). Un tel émetteur (51) est approprié pour la fabrication de composants à base de silicium à film mince.
