Abstract: A device for spatially separating components of frequency in a primary radiation beam comprising means for separating the primary radiation beam into a plurality of secondary radiation beams, a plurality of electrically biasable waveguides forming a waveguide array, each for transmitting a secondary radiation beam to an output, wherein each waveguide has an associated optical delay line having a corresponding optical delay time, wherein each of the optical delay times is different. The device also comprises means for applying a variable electric field across each of the waveguides such that the phase of the secondary radiation beams transmitted through each may be varied by varying the electric field. The secondary radiation beams output from each of the waveguides interfere in a propagation region with a secondary radiation beam output from at least one of the other waveguides so as to form an interference pattern comprising one or more maximum at various positions in the propagation region.

Abstract: A method for position finding of an automated guided vehicle using detection of angle positions for anonymous reflectors (R1-R11). The anonymous reflectors are arranged in positions in a limited transport area, and the positions are stored. A concentrated beam (B) is emitted from a vehicle (10) and is made to pass over a search sector. The angle position in relation to a reference direction (D) of the vehicle (10) in reflective objects is continually detected during the sweep of the beam over the search sector, and corresponding angle values are determined. Initially the following measures are taken for association of the angle positions to physical reflectors, and for determination of the position of the vehicle (10); i) at least three angle values with a suitable distribution over the search sector is selected, ii) the angle values are associated to reflectors and a position is determined for the vehicle on the basis of the known position of the assumed reflectors, iii) if the vehicle position determined in this way is within a certain part of the transport area the other angle values are associated to reflectors, iv) for each angle value, existing deviation is determined between detected angle values and angle values expected between the vehicle position and known reflectors, v) the measures taken are repeated for each possible combination of selected angle values. A combination of associations with the best possible agreement on the vehicle position is selected, whereby the position and direction of the vehicle is determined.

Abstract: A method for reducing the power consumption of a radio receiver, and in particular a digital audio broadcast receiver, is described, in which the RF tuner of the receiver is powered up during portions of the received signal which contain information relating to the location of data within the signal. The tuner is then also powered up at various other times in response to this information, in order to allow the reception and demodulation only of selected data. In this way, it is possible to power down the tuner during some portions of the signal, thereby reducing power consumption.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: A single CPU executes three tasks, a communication task, an image production task, and a print task. A block managing section has plural reception blocks of plural sizes, and determines a reception block which is to be given to the communication task, in accordance with the use states of the reception blocks. When the rate of receiving data from a network is higher than the data processing rate in a printer, a block of a size which is larger than that of the previous block is given to the communication task. When the data receiving rate is lower, a block of a size which is smaller than that of the previous block is given to the communication task. According to this configuration, even when the traffic congestion of the network, or the like is changed, it is possible to suitably allocate the CPU execution time period to the tasks. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of controlling the timing of a transmission time slot within a time frame comprises transmitting information over a channel in an allocated time slot at an allocated channel frequency, measuring a received interference level at the channel frequency around the start and around the end of the time slot, analysing the measured interference levels to detect the presence or absence of interferers at the channel frequency around the start and around the end of the time slot, and, if required, adjusting the timing of subsequent time slots for the channel to reduce interference from the detected interferers. Transmission slot timing of the invention enables dynamic avoidance of interference, which can therefore avoid both intermittent and continuous interferers, and can result in synchronisation of different systems to avoid sliding interferers. This method also enables the throughput of the communication system to be largely unaffected.

Abstract: The device comprises a shaping roller (1) having opposed side handles (2). There are a number of discs (5) projecting from a central body (3), extending around its periphery. Shaping elements (4) project from the central body. An apparatus for using the device comprises a support frame and a conveyor belt extending between rollers, defining a movable conveyor for supporting portions of bread dough in a movement direction. The above claimed shaping roller (1) is disposed above the movable conveyor and is freely rotatable on the handles (2) which are formed as pins and bear on the frame at the sides of the belt parallel to the movable conveyor. The cylindrical surface is disposed at a predetermined distance from the movable conveyor so that bread dough interferes with the shaping roller whilst supported on the movable conveyor. A method for shaping the dough using the shaping device is also claimed, involving rolling a portion of dough with the shaping roller with a pressure so as to impress lines of weakening and predetermined patterns in the dough. The dough is cut to produce bread shapes.
