Patent EP-1335543-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LAMBERT RUSSELL H
IPC: H03M7/32
Filed: 2003-02-11
Abstract: An Analog-to-Digital-Converter (ADC) converts an analog signal to digital data. The ADC includes a modulator, a decimation filter, and a time dither clock reduction circuit. The modulator receives the analog signal and a feedback signal and, based there upon, produces a modulated signal at a modulator clock rate. The decimation filter couples to the modulator, receives the modulated signal, and decimates and filters the modulated signal to produce the digital data. The time dither clock reduction circuit receives the modulated signal and provides the feedback signal to the modulator. The time dither clock reduction circuit applies both clock reduction and time dithering to the modulated signal to produce the feedback signal. At each modulator clock cycle, the time dithering clock reduction circuit considers modulated signals for a dithering factor, N, previous modulator clock cycles and a modulated signal for a current modulator clock cycle. If at least one constraint is satisfied for the N previous modulator clock cycles, the time dithering clock reduction circuit is allowed to transition the feedback signal with the modulated signal. If not, the time dithering clock reduction circuit holds the prior value of the feedback signal. After a transition, a new dithering factor may be determined. The ADC may be contained in a wireless local area network (WLAN) transceiving integrated circuit that services voice communications in a WLAN with at least one other WLAN device.

IPC: H04J3/16

Abstract: In transmission systems of the point-multipoint type (PMP) a
master station and one or more terminal stations are defined;
a downstream channel from the master station towards the
terminal stations and an upstream channel from the terminal
stations to the master station are also defined. 
     The system can be optimised in different ways for different
applications. An example can be the fixed packet or variable
packet optimisation; another example can be the optimisation
for the operational flexibility or for the efficiency. 
     These optimisations give origin to different systems and
different standards, incompatible among them, with different
frame structures. 
     The present invention solves the problem of implementing a
multi-standard terminal, that is, terminal capable to
automatically adjust to any frame structure in a limited set
of different structures, optimised in a different way. 
     The master station, which results of course being specialized
to operate in accordance with a specific operation method,
imposes said operation method and the terminal stations
slaved to the same, conform to them, recognizing the
operation mode from the frame preamble. 
     The frame preamble, periodically transmitted from the master
station to the terminal stations, according to the present
invention is differentiated in different sequences, each one
identifying a different operation mode.

Abstract: In an accelerometer in which a frame (11) supporting a pendulum (12)
through hinges (13) is held between a pair of opposed housings (15A,15B)
and a displacement of the pendulum (12) is detected as changes in electrostatic
capacitances between electrodes (23A,23B) formed on both sides of the
pendulum (12) and electrodes surfaces (15Ac,15Bc) formed integrally with the
housings (15A,15B) in opposing relation to the electrodes (23A,23B),
respectively, a C-shaped outer ring (31) having a slit (31S) formed in its
periphery is mounted around the housings (15A,15B) and bonded thereto
by a conductive adhesive to provide conduction between the housings
(15A,15B). The configuration of the outer ring (31) effectively prevents
thermal stress form being produced in the outer ring (31), suppressing
development of cracks in the conductive adhesive which causes changes in
the conduction between the housings (15A,15B).

Abstract: The specification describes a water blocking tape (28) for an optical
fiber cable wherein the optical fibers in the cable are wrapped with a
synthetic fibrous non-woven tape coated with a superabsorbent polymer
powder coating. The particles in the powder are ultra-fine, i.e. have less
than 7% weight fraction over 300 microns in diameter. Controlling the
particle size within this range is found to reduce microbending losses in
the optical fiber.

Abstract: Laser welding of plastic involves a laser passing through laser translucent then laser
absorbent material. A technical description as envisaged here is Laser Contour Welding.
Universally, laser welding is done by Quasi simultaneous techniques and rarely by Contour
techniques. Regular or symmetrical parts, under 5 inches are welded by Quasi simultaneous.
Asymmetric and large parts are best welded by Contour Welding. 
     Kinematics of robots permits a complex contour. Automotive plastic manifolds
exceed 5 inches with asymmetry. The pairing of robot contour and laser welding facilitates a
new Automotive manifold. It requires a new split line for laser access and manufacturing as
described. Encompassing the above requirements and solutions can reduce the moldings for
a V8 to 2 major operations.
