Patent EP-0886205-A2 (EP)
Inventor: VONDRAN GARY L JR
IPC: G06F3/12
Filed: 1998-03-26
Abstract: A print data processing pipeline (15) for use in a color
electrophotographic printer 16 optimizes print quality and minimizes memory
usage by separately processing lossy and lossless print data. Lossy print data
may include print data for images and lossless print data may include print data
for text, line art, and graphics. Partitioning print data into lossy and lossless
components allows application of the print data compression operations
optimized for each type of print data. High compression ratios can be achieved
on lossy print data by applying visually lossless compression operations designed
for the lossy print data. In addition, high compression ratios can be achieved on
the lossless print data by applying lossless compression operations designed for
the lossless print data. A merge unit (128) combines the lossy and lossless print
data streams after decompression to reconstruct the original image. Placement
of the color space conversion operation (12) and the halftone operation (14)
relative to the merge operation (13), further optimizes the print quality while
minimizing memory usage. The print data processing pipeline includes a direct
memory access controller (122) which has the capability to allow print data to be
selectively directed to the lossy (126) or lossless (127)
compressor/decompressor, the color space converter (125), or the merge unit
(128). Feedback paths within the print data processing pipeline (15) allow the
results of the various operations performed to be returned to the direct memory
access controller (122) for further processing or storage in system memory (2,
6). Bypass paths in the color space converter (125) and halftone unit (130)
allow print data to be selectively directed around these operations. These
capabilities allow configuration of the print data processing pipeline (15) to
perform a multitude of permutations of print data processing operations optimized
for the print data.

Filed: 1998-05-27
Abstract: This invention pertains to a method for forming thin films on substrates wherein
the films are produced by applying a solution of an electrically insulating, heat-curing
resin onto the substrate, evaporating the solvent and then exposing the resin to high
energy radiation to cure the resin. The resin solution contains a substance selected from
solvents and gas generating additives that causes dedensification of the film during cure
of the resin. This results in a film having a dielectric constant of below 2.7. This
invention also pertains to a semiconductor device having an interconnect structure
comprising at least one electrically conductive layer with an interposed insulating layer
having a dielectric constant of less than 2.7 wherein the insulating layer is produced by
the method of this invention.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for developing a pixel in an image forming
device (10) includes split developing the pixel using a split sub-pixel modulation
technique (FIG. 3). Split development provides for at least two non immediately
adjacent areas of the pixel to be developed more fully than an area in between
the two non immediately adjacent areas. In the context of a laser printer, the
laser is sub-pixel modulated at least twice (FIG. 2, signal C) upon the
electrophotoconductive drum for selected pixels, thus effectuating a reduced
discharge of the drum and reduced subsequent development of toner mass
thereon. This controlled amount of developed toner mass reduces toner waste
and toner scatter while maintaining image integrity.

Abstract: A switching control arrangement for a multilevel convertor minimises the harmonic
content of the convertor voltage or current by an open-loop and/or a closed-loop control of the
timing of the switching of the GTOs associated with the energy-storage components (e.g.
capacitors) in the convertor. In a first open-loop arrangement the convertor current is
quantized over its working range and different threshold values are provided in dependence
on the quantization values of the current. In a second open-loop arrangement a continuous,
non-quantized control is provided based on at least a quadratic approximation to the desired
current-dependent behaviour of the GTO switching angles. In a third, closed-loop
arrangement, different GTO-switching threshold levels are provided as controlled by a Fourier
integration process involving the nulling of those harmonics desired to be nulled. The control
arrangement is applicable to chain or stacked-capacitor multilevel convertors and can be
employed in SVC applications or applications in which the convertor draws real power as well
as reactive power.

Abstract: In accordance with the invention, an optical pulse compressor comprises
a pulse source (10), a section of nonlinear optical waveguide (11) including a periodic
structure such as Bragg grating (12), for providing positive dispersion and a section of
linear optical waveguide (13) including a negative dispersion component (14). The
nonlinear waveguide should have a second order index N 2  at least ten times the second
order index N 2 ' of the linear waveguide. The nonlinear waveguide is preferably
chalcogenide fiber, with a Bragg grating photoinduced into the core. Because the
grating is 4-5 orders of magnitude more dispersive than standard optical fiber, the
length of the nonlinear waveguide section can be scaled down to a few centimeters with
accompanying reduction of deleterious processes. Modeling suggests that compression
factors of 5 with an initial 60 ps pulse are achievable with grating lengths of about 20
cm.

Abstract: Les trajectoires monotones et constantes qui font l'objet de recherches sont mises en coïncidences, sans variation de translation, avec les formes de signal de code également reconfigurables et mémorisables. Grâce au procédé et au dispositif présentés, les trajectoires sont détectées avec une précision de mesure plus élevée et en un temps plus court. Selon le procédé présenté, la détermination de différences de temps de parcours se fait, d'une façon pouvant servir d'exemple, également pour les autres cas d'application, par détection de formes de signal de code dans l'unité de détection de signal supérieure (C1a) ou dans l'unité de détection de signal inférieure (C1b) et traitement additionnel des informations dans l'unité à coïncidences multiples (C2) montée en aval. Dans les unités de détection (C1a et C1b) est réalisé un appariement modèle-objet multiple parallèle et sans variation de décalage, au cours duquel les trajectoires sont mises en corrélation parallèlement et un ensemble de différences de temps de parcours, sous la forme d'un vecteur d'émission (D), est émis dans l'unité à coïncidences multiples (C2) montée en aval. Le procédé présenté convient pour la détermination exacte de trajectoires et peut donc être utilisé, entre autres, pour la localisation de sources de signal dans l'espace, pour la mesure de trajectoires de déplacement, et également pour la mesure de vitesses et d'accélérations.
