Abstract: A small, compact optical scanning system with small aperture size requirements,
wide field-of-regard and minimal color dispersion characteristics. The inventive
scanning system and method provides for optical beam steering over a broad spectral
band and over a wide field-of-regard. The inventive system includes a novel device for
receiving an input wavefront of electromagnetic energy along a first axis and refracting
the wavefront as an output wavefront along a second axis. The device is a unique form
of a liquid crystal array which can be electrically manipulated to change the effective
refractive index of each pixel. The index of refraction of the device varies in response
to an applied voltage. The voltage is supplied by a microprocessor and/or a servo-control
system. By changing the index, the incident phase front can be steered at an angle with
respect to the first axis and otherwise manipulated according to the index variant
pattern induced in the array. Accordingly, the output beam is steered in response to the
applied voltage.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein neues Verfahren zur Erzeugung von elektrischer Energie und Wärme in einer Vorrichtung, bestehend aus einer Hochtemperaturbrennstoffzelle und einer Gasturbine, wobei die Gasturbine mit einer unter Umgebungsdruck stehenden Brennkammer arbeitet. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Brennstoffzelle nicht druckfest ausgestaltet sein muss. Die Gasturbine entspannt daher das ihr zugeleitete Gas in einen Unterdruck, während der Verdichter dieses unter Unterdruck stehende Gas ansaugt und wieder auf Umgebungsdruck verdichtet. Unter Umgebungsdruck sind auch gegenüber dem Umgebungsdruck leicht erhöhte Drücke bis ca. 2 bar mit umfasst. Ein der Turbine nachgeschalteter Rekuperator überträgt die Wärme des Abgases der Turbine auf die der Brennstoffzelle zugeführte Zuluft, die so ausreichend vorgewärmt wird. Ein Abzweig dieser Leitung mit vorgewärmter Zuluft wird direkt dem Abgasstrom der Brennstoffzelle zugeleitet, so dass eine variable Regulierung der Restbrennstoffkonzentration am Eingang der Brennkammer der Gasturbine erfolgen kann.

Abstract: Method and apparatus are disclosed for damping the resonance frequency in a microphone. The method and apparatus of the invention involve providing an elastomeric frame to support the backplate. The elastomeric frame forms a substantially air tight seal around the backplate. A hole is formed in the backplate and a cover having an opening therein is placed over the hole in the backplate. The frequency response of the microphone may then be controlled by precisely controlling the size, shape, and/or location of the opening in the cover overlaying the hole. The cover may also serve as an electrical contact to other components in the microphone.

Abstract: Flexible and semi-rigid vinyl chloride resin compositions comprising a
combination of a latent mercaptan and an optional zinc salt of oxidized polyethylene
(a zinc ionomer) as a heat stabilizer are substantially free from the offensive odor
typically associated with mercaptans and are protected during processing by the
degradation products of the latent mercaptan and the optional zinc ionomer. The
oxidized polyethylene is split out from the ionomer to act as an adhesion promoter
for aqueous inks and paints, and the residual zinc carboxylate functions as a co-stabilizer
with the latent mercaptan in the composition. The latent mercaptan is
exemplified by a 2-S-(tetrahydropyranyl)thioalkanol, a carboxylic acid ester thereof,
a 2-S-(tetrahydropyranyl)-thiocarboxylic acid, an ester thereof, and the furanyl
homologs of each.

Abstract: A method for deep paging in a communication system employing orthogonal channelizing codes, such as Walsh sequences, of predetermined length  m , that does not require a high powered paging channel. The method includes the steps of generating a paging channel message which is combined with a Walsh sequence having a length greater than or equal to 2 m , and transmitting the paging channel message at a data rate of less than 480 bits per second (bps). By transmitting the paging channel message at a low data rate and integrating collected energy over a period longer by a factor on the order of 1000, the message is able to penetrate buildings and other structures or high attenuation environments, thereby allowing one to successfully page a user terminal that is inside such a structure or area. Preferably, the paging channel message is formed using an auxiliary Walsh sequence on the order of 65536 chips in length, and the data rate is less than 10 bps.
