Patent EP-1087249-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ISHIJIMA TOSHIHISA
IPC: G03B5/00
Filed: 2000-09-20
Abstract: In an image stabilizing apparatus in which an actuator for pivoting gimbal
suspension means is driven under PWM control by way of a driving circuit, the pulse
width of waveform outputted from a CPU to the driving circuit is enhanced when the
power voltage V p  in the driving circuit drops. Namely, the CPU reads out the
power voltage V p  and enhances the pulse width of output waveform from W 1  to W 2  as
the power voltage V p  decreases from its rated voltage V 1  to a lower voltage V 2 . The
correction rate (W 2 /W 1 ) is set to the reciprocal (V 1 /V 2 ) of the drop rate of power
voltage V p , so as to yield an appropriate actuator driving power in response to the
drop in power voltage V p .

Abstract: A cluster server apparatus is provided capable of
continuously carrying out data distribution to terminals even if
any cache server is failed, while optimally distributing loads
on a plurality of cache servers. 
     A cluster control unit (21) distributes requests from the
terminals based on the load on each cache server (10 x ). The cache
server (10 x ) distributes, to the terminal (4 y ), requested data
(streaming data) if it is stored in a streaming data storage unit
(14 x ), while distributing data from a content server (30) if it
is not stored therein. Here, the data distributed from the
content server (30) is redundantly stored in the streaming data
storage units (14 x , 14 x+1 ) of two or more cache servers (10 x , 10 x+1 ).
One cache server (10 x ) detects the state of distribution of the
other cache server (10 x+1 , 10 x-1 ) that stores the same data as that
stored in the one cache server (10). If the one cache server (10 x )
becomes unable to carry out distribution, the other cache server
(10 x+1 , 10 x-1 ) continues data distribution instead.

Abstract: Die Erfindung beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines elektronischen Dünnschichtbauelementes
mit wenigstens einer Streifenleitung. Bei diesem Verfahren wird
zunächst auf einer Substratschicht (1) eine metallische Basisschicht (2) abgeschieden, auf
dieser metallischen Basisschicht (2) eine Schicht aus Fotolack (3) aufgebracht und entsprechend
der zu formenden Streifenleitung(en) strukturiert. Auf den freigelegten Bereichen
der metallischen Basisschicht (2) wird eine elektrisch leitende Schicht (4) abgeschieden.
Anschließend wird der Fotolack (3) entfernt und die metallische Basisschicht
geätzt (2). Dieses Verfahren hat den Vorteil, daß weniger Metall benötigt wird als in
anderen Dünnschichtverfahren. 
Überschneidungen der Streifenleitungen können einfach, günstig und mit geringen Stromkapazitäten
mit Hilfe von Brücken (13) realisiert werden. 
Mit Hilfe des beschriebenen Verfahrens können auf einfache Weise passive Bauelemente
wie beispielsweise Dünnschichtkoppler für Hochfrequenzanwendungen oder Dünnschichtspulen

Abstract: The present invention makes it possible to reproduce an
optical disc in random reproduction or programmed
reproduction without interrupting reproduction, even
though discs such as a DVD or CD-I with an interactive
function are not removed from the roulette. A mechanical
unit 1 selects a target optical disc 103 to be reproduced
from among a plurality of optical discs accommodated in a
roulette 702. A disc detection unit 204 detects the type
of the optical disc which is selected as the target to be
reproduced. A system controller unit 5 allows
reproduction only in a case where the target optical disc
to be reproduced is a CD-DA, when the reproduction mode
entered to the user interface block unit 6 is either a
random- reproduction mode or a programmed-reproduction
mode.

continuous supply of a clock signal to a functional block
(11) which is in an inoperative status is reduced. A
functional block supplies a status detection signal
indicative of an operative status or an inoperative status to

inoperative status, the clock control unit stops the supply
of the clock signal to thereby stop the functional block.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods and apparatus for switching a call from an
unreliable network to an alternate network when a QoS of the network falls below a
predetermined threshold. The invention includes a telephone call switching apparatus
which monitors the QoS of the call. When the QoS of the call falls below a first threshold
the switching apparatus establishes a connection over an alternate network. If after a
predetermined time period or after the QoS falls below another predetermined threshold the
call is transferred to the alternate network connection. While the switching apparatus is
maintaining multiple network connections, the idle network connection remains muted.

Abstract: A method is presented for determining whether a fuel
sensor in a vehicle having a fuel tank, a fuel delivery
system, electronic engine controller, air flow and air/fuel
ratio sensors and an instrument panel is stuck in-range.
First, the electronic engine controller from the information
provided by the above sensors estimates an amount of fuel
consumed. The estimate is then compared to the'actual fuel
consumed data from the fuel sensor. If the difference
between the actual and estimated amounts exceeds a small
predetermined constant, the determination is made that the
fuel sensor is stuck in-range and a diagnostic code is sent
to the instrument panel and stored for use by a service
technician.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and arrangement for controlling a mobile
subscription in a mobile communication system. The invention finds particular
utility in arranging prepaid calls and in monitoring a quantitative right of use in a
digital mobile communication system. An idea of the invention is to include the
information about the accumulated or remaining right of use (ACM) in a response
message (SRES') transmitted to the network in connection with the authentication
(210). Inclusion in the message can be realized using a predetermined algorithm
(208). This way the network is able to check, using the corresponding algorithm,
that the charge information stored in the SIM module of the mobile station is correct
(214, 218). In addition, the algorithm stored in the SIM module can be altered by
the operator using an SMS (Short Message Service) message system associated with
SIM modules.

Abstract: A satellite communications system provides a communications service to a
mobile terminal (2) on which different communications applications (4a to 4d) may
be run. Calls are set up between any of the applications (4a to 4d) via a satellite
(12) to a network management centre (18) which provides different service
adaptors (20a to 20d) which adapt the calls to different types of service provided
over terrestrial networks (22), such as telephony, facsimile, internet or ATM
services. The bandwidth allocated to each call over the satellite link may be varied
during the call according to demand either from the relevant application (4) or from
the network management centre (18). Multiple calls may be connected
concurrently to or from different applications running on the mobile terminal. A
maximum bandwidth is allocated to each call. Efficient use is thereby made of the
limited bandwidth available over the satellite (12), according to the instantaneous
bandwidth requirements of different applications (4). For real-time calls requiring
multiple slots per frame in a TDMA channel, the slots are mutually spaced apart to
reduce delay.

Abstract: In a vehicle braking system with electronic brake distribution the threshold
level of slip of the rear wheels 14a, 14b is increased when the front brake
temperature is estimated to have increased to a level where brake fade will occur.
This allows more braking torque to be applied to the rear wheels 14a, 14b, to
counteract the brake fade at the front wheels 10a, 10b. This increase in threshold
slip is, however, overridden if the vehicle is cornering, as detected by a lateral
accelerometer 50 or a wheel speed difference across the vehicle, to avoid a
reduction in vehicle stability during cornering.
