Abstract: For automatically predicting machine failure a transducer sensor, such as piezoelectric crystal, is applied to a machine for sensing machine motion and structure-borne sound, including vibration friction, and shock waves. The structure-borne sound and motion sensed is converted to electrical signals which are filtered to leave only the friction and shock waves, which waves are processed, as by detecting the envelope and integrating beneath the envelope, resulting in a measure of friction and shock wave energy, i.e., stress wave energy. This measure is computed and processed for producing fault progression displays for periodic and aperiodic damage. This is accomplished in a personal computer, menu-driven environment.

Abstract: Des données relatives à l'abonnement sont utilisées dans un système de télécommunication mobile pour commander les périodes de fonctionnement en mode repos d'une station mobile. D'une part, les données relatives aux cellules sont diffusées à partir des cellules. Une station mobile utilise alors ces données relatives aux cellules pour déterminer si une cellule considérée appartient à un service prédéfini, ce service étant réservé à certains abonnés à l'exclusion des autres abonnés. Les données relatives aux cellules peuvent être un identificateur de cellule qui identifie de façon unique une cellule correspondante ou bien un identificateur de service qui identifie de façon unique un service comprenant au moins une cellule. Dans d'autres cas, le terminal mobile fait son choix en accédant à une mémoire telle qu'un module SIM et en extrayant les données qui y sont mémorisées et qui définissent les services prédéfinis. D'autre part, le SIM peut stocker des données identifiant les cellules préférentielles destinées à la station mobile et sur lesquelles se replier pendant le mode repos.

Abstract: A "gain control differential pair" (GCDP) conducts current in response to a differential drive signal, with the gain of a signal path formed via the current circuit of one of its transistors controlled by the drive signal. The GCDP is preferably driven with a drive circuit that receives a symmetrical input signal and produces an offset differential drive signal which has the effect of keeping one of the GCDP's transistors turned off over a wider portion of a symmetrical input signal's voltage range, thereby reducing GCDP-caused noise. One or more GCDPs are implemented as part of a Gilbert mixer to regulate the amount of RF current that flows between the mixer's output and input stages, which eliminates the need to provide gain control in other circuits fed by the mixer. When driven with an offset drive signal, the Gilbert mixer simultaneously provides gain control, low distortion, low power consumption and excellent LO/RF isolation.
