Abstract: A light emitting apparatus (50) includes a surface emitting laser and a ceramic package (20). The surface emitting laser has a common electrode on the back surface thereof and is mounted on the ceramic package via the common electrode. The common electrode of the surface emitting laser is electrically connected to a mount portion (31) of the ceramic package. The mount portion is electrically connected to a back-surface electrode (32) on the back surface of the ceramic package. The mount portion is also thermally connected to a back-surface heat-dissipating electrode (33) on the back surface of the ceramic package via a penetrating electrode (36) that penetrates the ceramic package. The surface emitting laser is spaced apart from the penetrating electrode in order to prevent inclination in light-emitted direction. The back-surface heat-dissipating electrode prevents destruction of a soldered portion when the light emitting apparatus is mounted on a substrate by soldering.

Inventor: ZOPF ROBERT
IPC: H04L1/18
Filed: 2010-01-20
Abstract: A voice activity detection (VAD) dependent retransmission scheme is described that mitigates the effect of packet loss on an audio signal transmitted between terminals in a wireless communication system in a manner that is generally more robust than conventional state-of-the art packet loss concealment algorithms but that consumes less terminal power as compared to conventional retransmission schemes. In one implementation, this is achieved by allowing retransmissions to be requested by a terminal only when a packet received by the terminal is deemed bad and when a portion of an audio signal currently being received by the terminal is deemed to comprise active speech. In other implementations, the processing of retransmission requests received by a terminal is inhibited or turned off entirely during periods when a portion of an audio signal currently being transmitted by the terminal is deemed not to comprise active speech.

Each track has a leading (28a,b) and a trailing guide (29a,b) path formed through a surface of the respective tracks, where the pins partially project into the guide paths and where load-bearing shoulder surfaces (24a-d) smoothly and reliably slide on the track surfaces. Each leading guide patz (28a,b) is "S" shaped and each trailing guide path (29a,b) is shaped in a perpendicular manner at one end, which causes the sliding panel (20') to smoothly enter and seal the window opening in a flush manner. An aesthetically pleasing flush-flush slider results when the sliding panel is in the plane of the window opening and further in the plane of the outer vehicle body panel.
