IPC: G01R33/16

Granted: 2006-06-28
Abstract: A position and electromagnetic field sensor is provided. The sensor relies upon an oscillator such as a Robinson marginal oscillator to generate an rf or microwave electromagnetic field. As an inhomogeneously shaped object, such as a metallic toothed wheel, for example, moves through the resultant field, the field experiences a change in electric or magnetic susceptibility. This in turn causes energy losses in the oscillator the magnitude of which can be output as a d.c. signal related thereto.  To detect non-moving objects which nevertheless generate an electromagnetic field or have attached to them a source thereof, the sensor also includes a giant or colossal magnetoresistive structure located adjacent the oscillator coil, the structure having an imaginary magnetic susceptibility which is strongly dependent upon the magnitude and direction of the field generated by or at the object to be sensed.

Abstract: An adaptive antenna array (14) includes a multiplicity of antenna elements (12a-12k, 48a-48k) responsive to uplink communications (16a-16k) and arranged to support directional-orientated downlink communication to subscriber units (18). The adaptive antenna array (14) is operationally responsive to a signal processor (28) that co-operates with direction of arrival estimation logic (36) to assess an angle of arrival of uplink communications incident to the array. To avoid inter-cell interference, especially during early stages of a call, the signal processor operates to ensure that a wide area downlink beam (108) is provided for a downlink path to an addressed subscriber unit. With time and/or with reported (68, 84) downlink quality of service (QoS) metrics, the signal processor (28) regulates (74, 92, 96) a width of the downlink beam by altering the number of antenna elements used to support the downlink beam, thereby altering the downlink beam aperture. Generally, with time, more antenna elements (92) are used and so the beam is narrowed, although in-call fluctuations in downlink quality of service are dynamically addressed by the signal processor (28) by either narrowing or broadening the width of the downlink beam by respectively switching antenna elements (12a-12k, 48a-48k) into (92) or out (96) of the adaptive antenna array (14), as shown in FIGs. 3a and 3b.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble poignée actif s'utilisant dans un instrument chirurgical orientable dans deux directions possédant une extrémité distale béquillable. Généralement, l'instrument chirurgical comprend un composant de poignée que l'utilisateur manipule de manière à entraîner le béquillage de l'extrémité distale de l'instrument. Cette extrémité distale comprend un embout d'extrémité d'un arbre s'étendant vers l'extérieur à partir de la poignée. Un mécanisme de commande est placé dans la poignée et s'étend à travers l'arbre de manière à commander de façon sélective la direction et le degré de béquillage de l'extrémité distale. Par exemple, un mécanisme de commande exemplaire utilise des fils de commande ou de guidage afin de béquiller l'extrémité distale. Selon l'invention, le mécanisme de force opposée actif est conçu de manière à s'utiliser en combinaison avec le mécanisme de commande et produit une force qui contre le retour de la force centrale générée par le béquillage de l'arbre au niveau de son extrémité distale. Idéalement, le mécanisme de force opposée actif équilibre le retour de la force centrale à travers l'intervalle de béquillage de l'instrument dans les directions proximale et distale. Il en résulte que l'utilisateur fait face à une résistance minimale,  le cas échéant, pendant la manipulation naturelle du mécanisme de commande.
