Title: Frame relay protocol-based multiplex switching scheme for satellite mesh network
Inventor: FIELDING DENNIS E
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 1994-06-16
Granted: 1999-01-13
Abstract: A frame relay protocol-based earth station interface architecture provides full mesh connectivity for a relatively small number of network stations. The fundamental component of the architecture is a frame relay protocol-based switch (110), which employs a network interface "frame relay" standard to define the muliplexing of multiple virtual ports across single physical communications port. Through address and control fields of its connectivity control software, the frame relay protocol-based switch (110) can be dynamically configured to provide multilayer addressing and device selectivity, thereby enabling point-to-point connectivity of multiple terminal devices, such as a plurality of audio circuits (170-1...170-N), to be effected via a single port. Dial codes on the station side of an audio signal muliplexer link (135) are translated into frame relay addresses (data link connection identifiers) that are added to each frame of data for routing though the network. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process is claimed for the prodn. of 2-dimensional coated materials with a matt or gloss surface, in which the substrate (A) consists of single- or multi-layer plastic or paper strip(s) with a total thickness of 80-500 microns. The substrate is coated, either directly or over an interlayer or plastic interlayer, with a UV-curable varnish (B) contg. monomeric acrylate(s) (mono-, di-, tri- and/or tetra-acrylate) (I) and opt. conventional additives. This varnish is produced by reacting monomer(s) (I) with acrylate prepolymer(s) with a mol. wt. of 500-2000 (II), and contains 1-10 pts. wt. UV initiator(s) per 100 pts. wt. (without additives etc.). The dullness of the coating is adjusted by the addn. of mono- and/or di-functional monomers (III), and UV hardening is effected with several radiation sources with a defined range of wavelengths. Pref. the coated substrate is irradiated first with short-wavelength, monochromatic UV in the range 100-200 (pref. 130-190, esp. pref. 172) nm., and then with UV with a wavelength more than 2 (pref. 10) nm. longer than that used in the first stage, pref. at least 200 (esp. pref. 200-900) nm. The UV source(s) for this second stage emit(s) monochromatic UV light with a wavelength of 220-450 (pref. 308) nm., and the coated substrate is irradiated with this light while being transported. The stage 2 UV source is of a higher power and/or intensity than the source used in stage 1, or stage 2 may be carried out with electron beam radiation instead of long wavelength UV.

Abstract: A method for producing visible marks in molded contact lenses, particularly soft hydrogel contact lenses, by placing a recessed mark configuration in a metal insert. The metal insert is subsequently used to produce injection molding frames, which are then subsequently used in the molding of the final contact lenses. The recessed mark configuration is at least approximately 10 microns deep, has a Volume Index, which is the ratio of the quantity volume below a reference surface minus the volume above the reference surface over the volume below the reference surface, of at least approximately 0.9. The recessed mark configuration also preferably has a ratio of surface roughness (RMS or Ra) to a peak-to-valley (PV) measurement, RMS/PV or of Ra/PV, of greater than approximately 0.15. The recessed mark configuration in the metal insert is subsequently transferred as a raised portion to the injection molded frames, and is then subsequently transferred as a visible recessed mark in contact lenses molded in the frames prepared using the inserts. The ratio of the surface roughness (RMS or Ra) to the height (H), wherein H is the distance between two reference lines in a profile of the mark, RMS/H or Ra/H, is at least approximately 1.5. A preferred method of imparting the recessed configuration to the insert is by Electric Discharge Machining (EDM). The dimensions of the several parameters can be verified by using a noncontact scanning white light interferometer.
