Title: Rate matching device and method for a data communication system
Inventor: KIM SE-HYOUNG
IPC: H04L7/00
Filed: 2000-07-06
Abstract: A device and method for matching a rate of channel-encoded symbols in a data communication system. The rate matching device and method can be applied to a data communication system which uses one or both of a non-systematic code (such as a convolution code or a linear function code) and a systematic code (such as a turbo code). The rate matching device includes a plurality of rate matching functions, the number of the rate matching functions being equal to a reciprocal of a coding rate of a channel encoder. The rate matching device can rate match the symbols encoded with a non-systematic code or the symbols encoded with a systematic code, by changing initial parameters including the number of input symbols, the number of output symbols, and the puncturing/repetition parameters determining parameter.

Title: Active coherence reduction for interferometer interrogation
Inventor: WAAGAARD OLE HENRIK
IPC: G01D5/353
Filed: 2004-10-08
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for reducing the coherence of an optical signal that is used to interrogate optical interferometric sensors are disclosed. The optical field phasor of the interrogation source is modulated in a controlled manner to produce a broadened optical source power spectrum at the output of the source unit. The output from the source unit is launched into an optical sensor network, comprising a multiple of optical pathways from its input to the detection unit, where pairs of optical pathways form sensor interferometers. A compensating interferometer with delay difference similar to the sensor delay difference may be arranged in a serially coupled manner with the optical sensor network, either before or after the network. The optical output power from the source unit may either be continuous or pulsed with a pulse duration similar to the sensor delay. The coherence modulation may be performed through direct modulation of the source or through external modulation of the light with piezoelectric ring modulator, a Lithium niobate phase or intensity modulator, or an acoustooptic modulator.

Abstract: Dans le domaine du couplage des barres, on utilise souvent un manchon, formé dans une matière élastique, isolante, souvent dans un plastique élastomère, dont les propriétés isolantes se dégradent par décharges partielles et diminuent au cours de temps de fonctionnement de l'installation de distribution. L'objectif de l'invention est de reconnaître à temps les effets de détérioration sur la matière isolante. A cet effet, on met en oeuvre des procédés de mesure des décharges partielles, ou également autour de la partie ultra haute fréquence. L'objectif de l'invention est de permettre une collecte, plus sûre et plus simple à manipuler, des signaux de mesure. A cet effet, le manchon (M) présente une surface (OA) électroconductrice, extérieure, laquelle est mise à la terre, et une surface (OI) électroconductrice, intérieure, à laquelle le potentiel de tension de la barre (S) est ajustée, et le manchon (M) présente également une électrode de couplage (KE) insérée dans la matière (I) isolante. Grâce à ces mesures, un dispositif de mesure sûr est mis en place, dans lequel le capteur (électrode de couplage KE) se trouve à l'extérieur du compartiment à gaz de l'installation, ce qui permet d'éviter une opération gazeuse lors de l'échange du capteur. Grâce à la conception du manchon (M), le capteur (électrode de couplage KE) peut être doté d'une sensibilité élevée à la décharge partielle.

Abstract: The process involves calculating a height corresponding to a relative height of an aircraft with respect to a threshold of a landing runway. A preset metric deviation is subtracted from the height to form another height. An angular vertical position of the aircraft is corrected by utilizing the latter height and a distance. The vertical position is utilized to assist the landing of the aircraft. The distance is the sum of a distance corresponding to the distance in a horizontal plane between the aircraft and the threshold of the landing runway and a distance in a horizontal plane between a predetermined reference point in the land and a threshold of the landing runway. An independent claim is also included for an aircraft landing assisting device including a receiver.
