Abstract: A receiver for a transmitted quadrature amplitude modulated (QAM) signal representing successive symbols, and including an in-phase (I) component and a quadrature (Q) component. A timing recovery system includes a source of samples (102) representing the QAM signal produced at a fixed frequency. Processing circuitry for the I component includes a first demodulator (104), coupled to the sample source, for demodulating the I component of the QAM signal to baseband; and a first interpolator (108), responsive to a control signal, for producing I component samples taken at times synchronized to the transmitted symbols. Processing circuitry for the Q component includes a second demodulator (114), also coupled to the sample source, for demodulating the Q component of the QAM signal to baseband; and a second interpolator (118), responsive to a control signal, for producing Q component samples taken at times synchronized to the transmitted symbols. A phase error detector (126) detects the phase error between the sample times of the I and Q component samples from the first and second interpolators and times of the successive transmitter symbols. A summer (130) is coupled to the phase error detector and a source of a nominal delay signal. A numerically controlled delay circuit (132), is coupled to the summer, for producing the respective control signals for the first and second interpolators.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil permettant de créer un réseau (5) d'adaptation d'impédance pour antenne qui ne nécessite pas de contacts mécaniques de commutation. Une antenne escamotable (20) comprend une plaquette conductrice (35) qui se déplace entre les positions escamotée et dépliée de l'antenne. Lorsque la plaquette conductrice se trouve en position dépliée, un circuit d'adaptation d'impédance (50) réagissant à la position de ladite plaquette conductrice connecte l'antenne (25) à un amplificateur de radiotéléphone. Lorsque la plaquette conductrice se trouve en position escamotée, le circuit d'adaptation d'impédance est court-circuité; de cette manière, l'antenne est connectée directement à l'amplificateur grâce l'effet capacitif qui se crée entre la plaquette conductrice et une bobine conductrice (80) du circuit d'adaptation d'impédance court-circuité.

Abstract: Des cathodes inertes permettant la réduction d'oxygène, recouvertes d'une fine couche superficielle à action catalytique, conviennent à des piles à combustible. En présence de méthanol comme combustible, ce revêtement doit en outre présenter des propriétés sélectives que l'utilisation de matériaux en amas semi-conducteurs issus de chalcogénure de métal de transition, toutefois sous forme de poudre ou de fine couche, ne suffit pas à obtenir. La cathode inerte mise au point selon l'invention permet de parvenir aux propriétés catalytiques et sélectives voulues. Son revêtement superficiel mince comprend des amas du type susmentionné, répartis de manière homogène, comme une dispersion colloïdale, et sa production n'implique qu'une quantité minimale de matériau de l'ordre du nanogramme, pour un degré de couverture particulièrement faible avec un coefficient d'efficacité hautement sélectif et catalytique. Le revêtement s'obtient par immersion dans un colloïde qui contient le mélange en amas conjointement avec un stabilisant dans un solvant. Après application du colloïde, le solvant et le stabilisant sont éliminés par traitements thermiques.

Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to geminivirus inducible
promoter sequences which are in itself normally, if present in a plant cell,
not active for the expression of adjacent genes. However it appears that
upon infection of the plant with wild-type virus, or a part thereof such as
the AC2 protein, expression of said adjacent genes occurs. It appears that
so-called CLE's, present in the geminiviral promoter, are necessary and
sufficient to induce said expression. Thus it is feasible to construct
transgenic plants which are resistant to geminiviral infection.
