Abstract: In an SAW filter of the invention, on one side of a piezoelectric substrate are formed a pattern portion (10) constituted by a conductor and provided on the outer circumferential portion of the surface acoustic wave device, and a conductor removing portion (12,13,13a-c,14,14a,b) formed between the surface acoustic wave device and the pattern portion (10). The shape of the surface acoustic wave device is formed by the conductor removing portion (12,13,13a-c,14,14a,b,) and the surface acoustic wave device remains non-conductive with the pattern portion (10) by the conductor removing portion (12,13,13a-c,14,14a,b). Therefore, removal of the pattern portion (10) is unnecessary, thus realizing an inexpensive SAW filter with high productivity and low costs as compared to the conventional techniques.

Abstract: An optical multilayer structure (1) has a substrate, a light-absorbing first layer (11) in contact with the substrate (10), a gap portion (12) having a changeable size capable of causing an optical interference phenomenon, and a second layer (13). By changing the size of the gap portion (12), an amount of reflection, transmission, or absorption of incident light can be changed. For example, the substrate (10) is made of carbon (C), the first layer (11) is made of tantalum (Ta), and the second layer (13) is made of silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ). Also in a visible light area, high response is realized. Consequently, the optical multilayer structure can be suitably used for an image display. 
     In one alternative the optical multilayer structure may be obtained by stacking, on a substrate made of a metal such as chromium (Cr), a first transparent layer made of a material having a high refractive index such as TiO 2  (n = 2.40), a second transparent layer made of a material having a low refractive index such as MgF 2  (n = 1.38), a gap portion having a changeable size capable of causing an optical interference phenomenon, and a third transparent layer made of a material having a high refractive index such as TiO 2 . 
     The structure may be used in an optical switching device and in an image display.

Abstract: A delivery system for a drug or bioactive agent includes an implantable pump and a delivery conduit that may be implanted in an organ or other tissue (e.g., the central or the peripheral nervous system) of a subject. A sensor is also implanted, and a controller unit receives the sensor output and directs drug delivery from within the patient pump accordingly. The sensor directly measures a primary biochemical material or state in the tissue or organ system, and the monitoring unit effects closed loop feedback control of the pump to achieve a desired end. The end may be the regulation of metabolism or maintenance of a stable metabolic or other state, or may be treatment regimen, e.g., by delivery of a dosage level or distribution of a drug in specific brain or nervous system tissue. The sensed material may be the agent itself, a metabolite, or a related native material, tissue state or condition.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with the reduction of an operational security margin of a power system (1) without jeopardizing the safety of the power system or incurring heavy investments. According to the invention, a check for basic accuracy or correctness of a conventional State Estimation (SE) procedure allows to increase a level of confidence in the results of the procedure. To this end, an accuracy of the estimated states is verified by comparing the latter with the results ( y, y' ) of independent phasor measurements performed at selected locations (B, D) of the power system. Unless a discrepancy is reported by this comparison, the results of the SE can be assumed to be sufficiently accurate, and any conservative or additional security margin intended to compensate for SE uncertainty can be relaxed. Hence, established trustworthiness in the estimated states allows increasing the transmitted power where the estimated states do indicate such a possibility, i.e. in particular in fringe areas and/or transmission corridors between countries, and especially under stressed network conditions.

Abstract: A capacitor-diode alternative circuit comprising at least three capacitor diodes, which are serially connected in an alternating manner in an opposite direction, and a resistor and/or inductor network, wherein a) an approximately full amount of control current, which is fed to the circuit, is applied to each of the capacitor diodes in order to adjust capacity, and b) an alternating current voltage which is applied to the series-connected capacitor diodes and which is of a higher frequency than the control current, is divided up between the serially connected capacity diodes, preferably in an at least even manner. One advantage of the inventive capacitor-diode alternative circuit is that the effects of the signal voltage on the adjusted capacity of the capacitor diode alternative circuit are insignificant or at least low,even for a tuning voltage which is lower than or not greater than or not substantially greater than the amplitude of the voltage of the signal which is to be treated in the oscillating circuit. As a result, intermodulation interference is avoided in an effective manner. The circuit can also be used in an electric device wherein only a low operating voltage is provided, e.g. a battery operated device.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for supporting multi-function PCI devices in PCI bridges. Respective pre-fetch buffers are allocated in response to respective initial data transfer requests issued by a multi-function PCI device. A programmable buffer fill watermark is set up for each pre-fetch buffer. While a portion of data corresponding to the data transfer requests fill the pre-fetch buffers, the fill level of each buffer is monitored to determine if it meets or exceeds its buffer fill watermark. In response to such a condition, the multi-function PCI device is connected to the PCI bridge and a virtual buffer is mapped to the pre-fetch buffer. The pre-fetch buffer is then emptied. During subsequent data transfers, each of the pre-fetch buffer becomes filled, the PCl device is connected, and the virtual buffer is mapped to the filled buffer. The process is continued until all data corresponding to the original data transfer request is received by the multi-function PCI device.

Abstract: A chip component with dielectric substrate and plurality of radiating antenna elements on the surface thereof. In one embodiment, two (2) substantially symmetric elements are used, each covering an opposite head and upper surface portion of the device. The surface between the elements comprises a slot. The chip is mounted on a circuit board (e.g., PCB) whose conductor pattern is part of the antenna. No ground plane is used under the chip or its sides to a certain distance. One of the antenna elements is coupled to the feed conductor on the PCB and to the ground plane, while the parasitic element is coupled only to the ground plane. The parasitic element is fed through coupling over the slot, and both elements resonate at the operating frequency. The antenna can be tuned and matched without discrete components, is substantially omni-directional, and has low substrate losses due to simple field image.

Abstract: A receiving apparatus (10), which is mounted on a mobile unit, selectively receives a transmitted signal from a transmitting station located in each transmission area. A delay profile detecting circuit (26) detects a delay profile indicating relative intensity and delay time between the transmitted signal and delay signals produced by the reflection of the transmitted signal. A control circuit (29) estimates a receiving environment in which the mobile unit is located according to the delay profile. The control circuit carries out reception switching between the transmitted signals from the transmitting station sending the currently received transmitted signal and from another transmitting station in response to the receiving quality and receiving environment of the transmitted signal.
