Abstract: The effects of heating on a printhead ( 16 ) used in a thermal ink-jet printer ( 10 ) provided with a heating means ( 30 ) to assist in drying ink on a print medium ( 12 ) are compensated for by making adjustments in the geometry, or architecture, of the printhead. Specifically, the dimensions of two portions of the structure for a cyan printhead are adjusted to provide more fluidic drag, first, by increasing the channel damping, and second, by increasing the shelf damping. The channel damping is increased by altering the dimensions of the ink-feed channel ( 48 ) leading towards the nozzle ( 42 )/resistor ( 44 ) area, or firing chamber ( 50 ), specifically, by both lengthening and narrowing the ink feed channel. The shelf damping is increased by increasing that portion ( 52 ) between the edge ( 54a ) of the ink refill slot ( 54 ) and the entrance to the ink feed channel. This increase in shelf length is most easily achieved by decreasing the width of the associated ink refill slot.

Abstract: Memory cells (10) are arrange in the row and column directions in the form of a matrix. A transistor (17) as a load is connected to column lines (C1, C2 - Cn). A sense amplifier (32) is connected to the transistor (17). In a read check operation, in which the data in the memory cells (10) are erased, and the erased state of each memory cell is checked, all the row lines are set in a non-selected state by a row decoder (11), and all the column lines are selected by a column decoder (12). In this state, the sum of currents flowing in the memory cells (10) is detected by the sense amplifier (32). When the current detected by the sense amplifier (32) becomes a predetermined value, a data erase operation is ended.

Abstract: A wire-dot printing head (10) has a housing (18) in which a plurality of actuator assemblies (32) are accommodated to drive a plurality of wire elements (66). An annular hollow space (68) may be formed in a side wall of the housing (18) surrounding the actuator assemblies (32), whereby noise and vibration produced during operation of the actuator assemblies (32) can be effectively damped due to the formation of the annular hollow space (68). A interior region of the housing (18) may be partially charged with gel-like damping material for damping the noise and vibration, a hollow space being formed in the charged damping material so as to reduce the increase in the inertial mass of the printing head (10).

Abstract: Base stations (102,103,104) respond on a shared channel to a registration request message received on another shared channel from a wireless mobile unit (105), with the base station (103) to which the mobile unit is assigned transmitting in a first time slot and the other base stations transmitting in a time slot determined by the strength of the received signal from the mobile unit. If two base stations (102,104) respond to the registration request message in the same (collided) time slot and the assigned base station (103) does not respond, the mobile unit (105) determines whether there is a response in a time slot which is earlier in time than the collided time slot. If the collided time slot is earlier in time than any other time slot in which a response is received, the mobile unit transmits a second registration request message specifying the collided time slot. Each of the base stations (102,104) that had responded in the collided time slot responds by sending a base reply message in a random time slot, and the other base stations do not respond to this second registration request message. The mobile unit selects one of the base reply messages in a random time slot.

Abstract: A coordinate input device is provided to contribute to improvements in the mechanical mouse, opto-mechanical mouse or the like which are used to control cursor movements in the visual display unit of the computer system. The device comprises a position sensor (1) and a pressure sensor (3). The position sensor detects a two-dimensional position of the device, which is moved on a flat surface or the like by a person, so as to produce two-dimensional coordinates. The pressure sensor detects pressing force applied to the device by the person. Hence, the two-dimensional coordinates and the pressing force detected are used as parameters which control a cursor or a graphic image displayed on the screen of the visual display unit. The pressure sensor comprises an air-pressure sensor which detects a change of an air pressure caused by the pressing force applied to the device. In addition, the pressure sensor can be replaced by a grip sensor (4) which detects grip force applied to the device by the person.

Abstract: A display apparatus enables analog clock display with, for example, twelve numbers 1 to 12 and a pair of long and short hands. In the display apparatus, a control circuit (3) produces instruction data for controlling an on-screen display circuit (6) which generates color signals for displaying an analog clock image. The instruction data causes the on-screen display circuit (6) to change the colors of the two numbers to which the long and short hands point in the analog clock image so that these two numbers are displayed in a different color from those of other ten numbers.

Abstract: Digital data is encoded using a modulus m converter 700 to produce fractionally encoded words, where m is the nearest integer larger than 2   c    and c is a noninteger. The fractionally encoded words are mapped into a symbol constellation having m symbols to produce a two dimensional data signal 62, 63. The data signal is added to a two dimensional analog signal, which was obtained by encoding an input analog signal, to produce a combined two dimensional signal. The combined signal is modulated using QAM and then transmitted over a communication channel.

Abstract: A technique for modifying the IEEE 802.3 standard for selecting transmit-to-transmit interpacket gap (IPG) intervals in a Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) network, in the event that a node has captured the network communication channel. If there is a small number of active nodes on the network, one node may capture the channel and the standard backoff algorithm makes it increasingly unlikely for another node to transmit. The new technique provides for less aggressive, i.e. longer, interpacket gap (IPG) intervals to be used by a node that has captured the channel, thereby increasing the likelihood that another node will gain access.

Abstract: Systems (20) for making thickness measurements in a thin film structure (11) using an incoherently or coherently coupled structured surface (16, 21). A system (20, 20a) is used to measure the thickness of a thin film layer (14) of a thin film structure (11) is which polished and structured surfaces are coherently coupled together. Visible light used to measure the thickness of thin bonded wafers that have a ground upper surface (16), or infrared light is used to measure the thickness of thick silicon wafers (10) where one surface is ground, and the other is polished. Other systems (20a, 20b) use a structured surface (21) that is incoherently coupled to a thin film structure (11) in order to illuminate the thin film structure (11) at many angles. The systems (20, 20a, 20b) produce interference fringes that are detected (25a) and recorded (28), and multi-spectral pattern matching is used in a computer (29) to compute film thickness based on scattering characteristics included in a library (30) of stored interference patterns.

Abstract: In a video signal processor including a motion compensated predictive coding data compression system, three adjacent image frames (1, 2, 3) are analyzed to detect a luminance gradient such as is typically associated with image fading. The frames are similarly divided into several segments (A...L). The sum of the absolute pixel value differences between corresponding segments from adjacent frames is obtained for each of two pairs of adjacent frame segments (DIFF₁₋₂; DIFF₂₋₃). The ratio of the two frame differences (S) is obtained for each segment. Fading is indicated if the ratio remains substantially constant for all or a predetermined number of regions. If fading is detected, any motion vectors generated by the motion coder are assigned a zero value and are not coded.
