Abstract: Velocities (V WF ,V WR ) of drive wheels and follower wheels of a vehicle are determined, and then the velocity (V ref ) of the vehicle is estimated based on the fastest wheel velocity (V WM ). When the estimated vehicle velocity (V ref ) is faster than the velocities of the follower wheels (V WF ) and lower than the fastest wheel velocity (V WM ), the estimated vehicle velocity (V ref ) determined immediately before the above estimating process is set as the estimated vehicle velocity. Also described are methods and apparatus for controlling braking pressure based on wheel slip, wheel acceleration/deceleration and brake pressure membership functions, which may be varied depending on tyre and vehicle stability characteristics, and in which data amounts and space for setting data about the slip ratio and wheel acceleration/deceleration are set so as to increase as their absolute values increase from zero. A method and apparatus of limiting the rate of increase of brake pressure during, for example, breakthrough by repeatedly opening and closing a cut-valve for set periods of time is also described.

Abstract: When an application program stored in an IC card (32,33) is executed, a state of the program execution and an incoming/outgoing call are supervised. It is controlled in a way that the execution of the program is automatically suppressed at the time of incoming/outgoing call and restarted from the point it was suppressed when the telephone link was completed. Further, when the terminal emulation program stored in the IC card emulates the telephone apparatus as a terminal of the host system, the communication with the host is efficiently executed with reduction of the line load.

Abstract: The aim is to specify an optical transmitting and receiving arrangement which permits an optical signal to be coupled from a light-emitting component into a multiplicity of optical fibres and, on the other hand, permits the light received by the optical fibres to be directed onto a respectively associated light-receiving component. An optical transmitting and receiving arrangement is described which has a plurality of optical fibres (31-34) into which light is coupled in in each case and from which light is received in each case by in each case one optical electrical component (81-84) which receives light. A beam splitter (ST1-ST4) is arranged in each case between the optical fibre (31-34) and the light-receiving component (81-84). The proportion of the light transmitted by the beam splitter (ST1-ST4) from the optical fibre (31-34) impinges on the light-receiving component (81-84). Provision is made of a common light-emitting optoelectric component (3) which is connected to each optical fibre (31-34) by arranging that the proportion reflected at the beam splitter (ST1-ST4) associated with the respective optical fibre is coupled into the respective optical fibres, and that the transmitted proportion impinges on the next beam splitter (ST1-ST4). Application of the arrangement in optical fibre transmission systems.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A television receiver provides a "favorite channel" selection function for up to ten favorite channels without the addition a dedicated array of keys. In apparatus according to the present invention, a user holds-down a digit key for an extended period of time (preferably 3 seconds), and circuitry in the television receiver interprets this "extended keypress" as an instruction to tune favorite channel "N" where "N" corresponds to the digit key (260,660) pressed. Two digit channel entry can be accomplished as usual by releasing the digit keys (260,660) in less than the extended period of time (i.e., less than three seconds). An extended keypress of a CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN key (240,250,640,660) is interpreted as a command to store the currently tuned channel in the favorite channel memory in the location specified by the number of the next digit key pressed. CHANNEL UP and CHANNEL DOWN functions can be accomplished as usual by releasing the CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN key (240,250,640,660) in less than the extended period of time (i.e., less than three seconds). Alternatively, a separate MEMORY key (670) may be employed for storing favorite channel information. Pressing the MEMORY key (670) serves as a command to store the current channel in the favorite channel memory location identified by the next digit key pressed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for correcting the zero pressure value of a hydraulic power steering pressure sensor. A power steering pressure PK is detected through pressure sensors 9 and 10 of a power steering cylinder 1 after an engine 14 stops running. The number of detections D [PK] of the power steering pressure PK is added up, provided that the power steering pressure PK remains unchanged for a predetermined time period, and then after a predetermined time period passes after the engine has stopped running, the power steering pressure PK, at which the number of detections D [PK] reaches a maximum value, is adopted as the zero pressure value of the pressure sensors. This makes it possible to accurately correct the zero pressure value of the pressure sensors in the hydraulic power steering unit.

Abstract: A speed control system for a bicycle for controlling a change speed device through a change speed wire (520), having a shift lever movable in opposite directions from a home position; a takeup reel (5) connected to one end of the wire for winding up the wire with movement in one direction of the shift lever (8); a one-way transmission mechanism for transmitting only movement in one direction of the shift lever to the takeup reel; position retaining teeth (16) and a position retaining pawl (17) for retaining the takeup reel in a plurality of winding positions; and a retention canceling cam mechanism (400) for canceling retention of the takeup reel by the position retaining teeth and pawl, and allowing the takeup reel to rotate in the wire unwinding direction. 
     The retention canceling cam mechanism includes a release element (7) movable between a release position and a non-release position, and a spring for urging the release element to the non-release position. The release element is movable to the release position by movement of the shift lever from the home position in the other direction. 
     The shift lever is connected to the takeup reel through a one-way mechanism which transmits only movement in the wire winding direction. Consequently, the takeup reel is successively shifted in the winding direction by reciprocating the shift lever on one side of the home position. When the shift lever is shifted to the other side of the home position, the takeup reel is freed from position retention by action of the release element. As a result of the release, the takeup reel urged in the wire unwinding direction rotates in the unwinding direction, thereby effecting a return through change speed stages.
