Abstract: A photonics apparatus is described. All of the components of the
photonics module (30) are precisely mounted and aligned on a single
mounting member (31) without requiring active alignment and additional
mounting members. The components mounted on the mounting member (31)
include at least a laser (39), a photo detector (32), and two sperical
lenses (33,34). The components may also include an optical filter (36)
and a mirror (35). A photo-lithographic masking and etching process can
be used to precisely process the silicon mounting member to mount these
components. Pyramidal cavities etched in the mounting member are used
to hold the spherical lenses in a manner to avoid light beam
abstraction. The photo detector (32) includes an integrated mirror and
its active area is parallel to the surface of the mounting member. The
optical filter and the mirror may be integrated together to form an
integrated device that is attached to the mounting member. A method of
making the photonics apparatus is also described.

Abstract: An alternator includes a flywheel for storing kinetic energy. A motor generator,
which includes permanent magnets mounted to a rotor, receives electrical power for
accelerating the rotor to a high rotational velocity to store kinetic energy. The rotor is
provided with coils, and each coil is connected to first and second conductors. The
exterior portion of the rotor comprises the flywheel. Stator coils are mounted adjacent
to coils of the rotor and electrical power is produced within the stator coils. The
kinetic energy stored in the rotor flywheel can be transformed to electrical power
through a first output which is the coils of the motor generator and can produce a
second electrical output through the stator coils of the alternator. The primary
application of such a dual power alternator is to produce a high power pulse for an
electromagnetic gun, and to also provide averaging power to supplement the power
from the main drive engine of a vehicle.

Abstract: Rodents are entrapped in hot melt adhesive which is disposed on a thermoformed thermoplastic base sheet which has a series of closely spaced ridges defining a rodent runway extending the length of the base sheet. The ridges create a series of depressed valleys which receive the adhesive and engage the quantity of adhesive with the base sheet to mechanically retain the adhesive against shifting off the base sheet. A substantially unobstructed expanse of adhesive without exposed ridges is presented on the runway for encounter by a rodent. Two stiffening ribs extend upwardly from the base sheet on either side of the runway to rigidify the base sheet. Multiple protrusions extend adjacent to each stiffening rib exterior to the runway. The protrusions are engaged on top and bottom by parallel projections of rack members within a paperboard or corrugated container such that multiple glue boards may be stored and dispensed.

Abstract: Bandwidth is adaptively allocated in an upstream channel of a layered data communication network such as that used for carrying messages from a number of subscriber units (250, 252, ..., 254) to a central controller (210), for example, to allow the subscriber units to send data for Internet access, videoconferencing, or voice communication. A running total of unallocated bandwidth (BWA(j)) is maintained in successive control intervals. A traffic count (C(i)) is determined for each subscriber unit by measuring the bandwidth which is used, for example, by counting the number of slots used in a control interval. The assigned bandwidth (B(i)) of the subscriber units is then adjusted when a ratio (K) of the traffic count to the assigned bandwidth is at or below a lower threshold (T1), and the running total of unallocated bandwidth is incremented by the decrease in the assigned bandwidth. The assigned bandwidth may be increased when a ratio (K) of the traffic count to the assigned bandwidth is at or above an upper threshold (T2) by distributing the unallocated bandwidth among the subscriber units. A subscriber unit hierarchy may be used to grant priority to selected users.
