Patent EP-0586103-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ASPELL JENNIFER
IPC: H01S3/07

Abstract: In an embodiment for obtaining accurate noise figure measurements for any degree of saturation of an optical amplifier, a polarizer is located at the output of the optical amplifier. The amplified spontaneous noise (ASE) produced by an optical amplifier is not polarized, whereas the amplified signal has a well defined state of polarization which is preferably linear. If the amplified signal is not linearly polarized, it can be rendered linearly polarized in one direction by means of a polarization controller located downstream of the polarizer. By setting the polarizer to have its state of polarization orthogonal to that of the linearly polarized amplified signal, the spectral density of the ASE from the polarizer can be measured without associated distortion due to the signal. By sequentially adjusting the polarization controller to minimize and then maximize the signal which it passes, sequential measurements of the ASE spectral density and gain of the optical amplifier can be obtained. Continuous measurements of the ASE can be obtained by placing a splitter such as a 3dB coupler between the polarizer and the optical amplifier and setting the state of polarization of the polarizer to be continuously orthogonal to the state of polarization of the amplified signal from one leg of the splitter. At the same time, a signal from the other leg of the splitter which consists of ASE noise plus the amplified signal can be used to obtain the gain of the optical amplifier. From the measurements of the ASE with and without the amplified signal, the noise figure of the optical amplifier can be calculated.

Abstract: In the case of the current transformer according to the invention, the components which are used are arranged in a novel manner. The primary winding (7) is arranged around the secondary winding (8), with the extended core (9), at a distance which is provided for the insertion of high-voltage insulation (10). The secondary winding (8) and core (9) are located in an earthed electrically conductive tube (12) in which the output leads of the secondary winding are connected to earth. This construction avoids the mutual looping around of the core and windings which is necessary according to the prior art and which, for some applications, is unfavourable and costly in production engineering terms. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A stream of video frames that is provided to a display device at a normal speed is processed to provide slow motion of a selected segment of the stream. Processing involves creating a dilated stream of the video frames. Each original frame of the segment is copied. The copied frames are located in the dilated stream adjacent to their respective original frames. The dilated stream is then provided to the display device at the normal playing speed. Slow motion of a segment or frames is provided by playing plural copies of each frame before playing the next frame. All the frames in the segment can be copied the same number of times. Alternatively, the frames in the segment can be copied an uneven number of times, wherein the frames near the beginning and end of the segment are copied fewer times than the frames in the middle of the segment.

Abstract: A stand-alone takeaway and correction conveyor system for a food loaf slicer or other food product machine that produces groups of food products that must be held to close tolerance as to weight or some other readily measurable characteristic includes two conveyors, one for reject groups and one for acceptable groups. The two conveyors are mounted on one base, in spaced parallel relation to each other, with the reject conveyor above the accept conveyor. Both conveyors are driven, at related speeds, from one drive; the drive is mounted in the base and is energized and controlled, as to speed, from the food product machine. The conveyor for acceptable groups has a pivotal outboard section to allow for service of packaging equipment without moving the system. Both conveyors have eccentric mounts to compensate for large elevation differences in packaging equipment. A correction tray is used for correction of reject groups of food products. Controls on the base enable an operator to stop the food product machine and the conveyors and to jog the reject conveyor.

Abstract: A graphics display image is displayed on a display, the graphics display image being formed by a plurality of graphics display image components, at least some of which have to be edited. The graphics display image components may be generated from data obtained e.g. from optical reading of a hard-copy of a map, circuit diagram, or design drawing by a suitable optical reader. The graphics display image components which are to be edited are displayed with a different visual appearance from any components which do not have to be edited, e.g. by highlighting the components to be edited. As the editing of each components is completed, its visual appearance is changed, e.g. the highlighting cancelled, so the operator has an immediate visual indication of the components which have not yet been edited. In this way, complete editing can be ensured. Different editing operations are possible including creating a cursor corresponding to the component to be edited, adjusting that cursor to correspond to the location, size and orientation of the component to be edited, and replacing the component with the cursor image.
