Abstract: En transmission numérique, on détermine la combinaison de la forme d'impulsions émises et le temps d'échantillonnage du récepteur maximisant l'intensité de l'échantillon d'impulsion de sortie du canal. La forme de l'impulsion émise est représentée sous forme de combinaison linéaire de fonctions orthonormales. On détermine les coefficients multiplicateurs de chaque fonction en mesurant au niveau du récepteur (200) et en renvoyant à l'émetteur (100) la réponse de la voie à chaque fonction transmise indépendamment selon une approximation du temps d'échantillonnage optimum. Une forme d'impulsion est obtenue au moyen des coefficients calculés, et est transmise au récepteur où la synchronisation de son maximum est déterminée, ce qui représente l'approximation suivante du temps d'échantillonage optimum. La répétition des opérations de transmission des fonctions, de mesure au niveau du récepteur et de renvoi à l'émetteur des réponses selon l'approximation du temps d'échantillonnage optimum, le calcul des coefficients, la transmission d'une impulsion et la détermination de l'approximation suivante du temps d'échantillonnage optimum à partir de la synchronisation du maximum dans l'impulsion reçue permet de faire converger les coefficients et le temps d'échantillonnage optimum.

Abstract: DNAs encoding glutamate and avermectin-sensitive chloride channels have been cloned and characterized. The individual alpha and beta subunits are capable of forming homomeric and heteromeric channels selectivity opened with either avermectin or glutamate. The cDNA's have been expressed in recombinant host cells which produce active recombinant protein. The recombinant protein is also purified from the recombinant host cells. In addition, the recombinant host cells are utilized to establish a method for identifying modulators of the receptor activity, and receptor modulators are identified. Receptor modulators are useful as insecticides and anthelminthic agents.

Title: Triaxial normal and shear force sensor
Inventor: GRAHN ALLEN R
IPC: G01L5/16
Filed: 1995-10-26
Granted: 2003-08-19
Abstract: A triaxial force sensor using a hemispherical target (60) supported by a compliant element such as a spring or an elastomer (416) supported by a rigid support member (402). The sensor includes a plurality of ultrasonic transducers (52) disposed in a plane at equal intervals about the target (60) and vertically and laterally offset from the target (60). The transducers (52) are orientated at an oblique angle to the plane, and aimed at the target (60) in its rest position. The target (60) is displaced by sufficient force applied to elastically deform the compliant element (416), which displacement alters the transit times of ultrasonic signals from the transducers (52) which are reflected from the target (60). If at least three sensor units are employed non-colinearly, the six force-torque components, Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx, My, Mz, can be determined from the pulse transmit times, the speed-of-sound in the medium or media (416) between the transducers (52) and the target (60), the deformation response of the compliant element (416), and the known geometry and spacing of the transducers (52). Pairs of transducers (52) may be rotationally offset from each other to determine different force-torque components. A plurality of sensors as described may be employed together in a multi-sensor array. An alternative embodiment employing both the amplitude and the transit time of an ultrasonic pulse is also disclosed.

Abstract: An information detection apparatus and information detection method for processing recording media to check the validity of checks and other negotiable instruments and print as necessary to said recording media are characterized by reliable operation and good operability. The information detection apparatus for processing recording media comprises in sequence along transportation path 9 from the insertion opening 6 a recording medium transportation mechanism 3, printing mechanism 4, and reading mechanism 5. When recording medium 8 is transported by transportation mechanism 3 along transportation path 9 to a predetermined position, the check is positioned between presser roller 51 and detection means 52 of reading mechanism 5. Presser roller 51 then presses recording medium 8 against detection means 52 while transportation mechanism 3 pulls the recording medium and particular information recorded to the recording medium is detected. This operation straightens wrinkles and removes slack from recording medium 8 to reduce reading errors. Based on the read information, a printing process is then executed by printing mechanism 4 and the recording medium is ejected from insertion opening 6. Task efficiency is therefore good, and the occupied space can be minimized.

Abstract: Apparatus including a frame, preferably circular in geometry and having a rental axis. At spaced apart locations about the circumference of the frame there are provided a plurality of links, each of which is pivotally mounted on a the frame and each of which carries a shoe having an arcuate surface. Each link includes at least one leg portion having an outboard end, The outboard ends of the leg portions of the plurality of links are interconnected with one another and with a drive mechansim whose operation serves to rotate the interconnected links in unison about their respective rotational mountings to the frame. As the links are rotated, their respective shoes are caused to move along an arcuate path which repositions the shoes generally radially inwardly or outwardly with respect to the central axis of the apparatus. To retain the circularity of the arcuate surfaces of the shoes as they are moved radially inwardly and outwardly, the shoes are interconnected by respective rigid rods. One end of each rod is fixedly anchored in a slot opening outwardly of one side margin of a first shoe and projects therefrom to have its opposite end slidably received in a second slot in a circumferentially adjacent shoe. The slots and rod share a common longitudinal axis, which axis is oriented normal to a radius of the frame.

Title: Integrated self diagnostic control system
Inventor: HALEY MAC
IPC: G05B23/02
Filed: 1997-12-22
Granted: 2006-10-10
Abstract: A self diagnostic system is integrated into an application program for controlling a machine or process. The application program is comprised of various logical segments that have to be solved by a logic solving engine. The diagnostic program will annunciate an event when the application program cannot execute a desired response by monitoring certain preselected and marked segments of the application program and allocating memory to save the result.. When an abnormal occurrence in these segments results in the desired event not occurring, the diagnostic system will determine what part of the logic expression controlling the event could not be completed. This information will be saved and used for annunciating the reason for the desired event not happening. The diagnostic system includes a special control module that is added to the application program.  This module is implemented as either an instruction added to the marked logic segment that is to be monitored in the case of a ladder logic system or as a subroutine as part of other types of sequential control methods. The data is recorded automatically, without application programming.
