Abstract: The invention is a multi-band antenna in which two, three or more antennas are contained within a single housing/radome. Two top-loaded monopole antennas are nested together with one of the antennas being positioned between the ground plate and top plate of the other antenna. Inductive shunts for counteracting the capacitance in the two top-loaded monopole antennas can be provided by hollow conductive tubes in order to help the antenna more closely emulate a purely resistive 50 ohm impedance. A third, microstrip antenna may be positioned on top of the top conductive plate of the outer top-loaded monopole antenna. The cable for the microstrip antenna is routed through the ground plate and top plate of at least one of the top-loaded antennas and through the inside of one of the hollow inductive shunts.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés et appareils interférométriques servant à mesurer avec précision des surfaces et des fronts d'ondes émis asphériques, en particulier ceux du type présentant des diamètres et un écart relativement importants, employés dans des applications lithographiques dans la fabrication de circuits intégrés et similaires. Un interféromètre, de préférence du type Fizeau, comprend au moins une surface de référence asphérique positionnée de façon adjacente à l'optique de test. Cette optique de test peut être à symétrie de révolution ou non, une surface de test asphérique réfléchissante, ou un système de réfraction qui est éclairé par un front d'ondes asphérique ou qui produit un front d'ondes asphérique émis. Dans tous les cas, l'écart de l'optique de test par rapport à ses performances voulues est déterminé ultérieurement. La surface de référence asphérique est éclairée par un front d'ondes asphérique fourni par des optiques placées en amont, structurées de sorte que le front d'ondes asphérique incident se propage de façon perpendiculaire à la surface de référence asphérique sur la totalité de sa surface. Le front d'ondes asphérique d'éclairage est partiellement réfléchi et partiellement émis par la surface de référence pour produire un front de mesure asphérique qui frappe l'optique de test et qui présente une forme exactement identique à celle de la surface de test dans le cas d'une réflexion ou du front d'ondes émis voulu dans le cas d'une réfraction. La surface de test asphérique réfléchit le front d'ondes asphérique incident et est associée avec le front d'ondes asphérique de référence pour permettre de créer un interférogramme contenant des informations de phase donnant des indications sur la forme du front d'ondes produit par l'optique de test. L'interférogramme est affiché sur un système de photodétection de préférence bidimensionnel qui fournit un signal de sortie qui est analysé de façon à permettre l'extraction de l'information de phase pertinente, avant de le convertir sous une forme numérique et affichable. Ces techniques d'interférométrie à déphasage sont utilisées de préférence pour effectuer des analyses en combinaison avec des appareils d'alignement et des procédures visant à réaliser des mesures précises de l'optique de test.

Abstract: A method, in which a damaged site of a composite material structure, for example a wing skin on an aircraft, is repaired, includes the steps of repairing the damaged site with repair material, including adhesive, and at the same time bonding a test fixture, for example a button, at a test site next to the repair, by means of material that is the same as the repair material. The conditions to which the damaged site and the test site are subjected are substantially the same. After repair, the strength of the repair bond may be indirectly assessed by applying a torque to the test fixture, so as to assess the bond strength of the test fixture to the structure.

If any light is present at the sensor ( 30 ) within a predetermined time period then the tool must be broken and the output of the detector is latched. Thus if a broken tool is present and contamination obstructs the beam then this is ignored provided some light is sensed.

Abstract: A modem data aggregating gateway that supports modem relay functionality for permitting reliable switching of modem traffic between a VoIP network and a data packet switch Internet Protocol (IP) network, s.a. the Internet. The modem relay aggregator may receive modem data encapsulated as Voice over IP (VoIP) data packets in accordance with a Simple Packet Relay Transport (SPRT) mechanism. The packet data may be error corrected and/or decompressed before being repackaged for forwarding to the ultimate destination. In the event that the destination is itself an IP device, the modem relay aggregator may forward the packets directly over the IP network. As a result, if the destination of a modem call is an IP device (such as a Web site or other Internet-enabled device) the technique eliminates two points from a processing path in which digital signal processing (DSPs) would otherwise have to perform modem protocol processing. Otherwise, minimal modem reformatting can be performed at the aggregation point.
