Abstract: The light which is input from an optical fiber (1) to a
first port (11) is output to an optical path (P 11 ). The light which
is input from the optical path to a half mirror (17) is branched
into two, and is output to the optical paths (P 13 ,P 12 ). The light which
is output to the optical path (P 12 ) reaches to and is reflected
from a first reflecting mirror (19), and returns to the half mirror (17)
by an optical path (P 14 ). The light which is input to the half
mirror by the optical path (P 14 ) is branched into two, and is output
to the optical paths (P 15 ,P 16 ). The light which is output to the optical
path (P 13 ) reaches to and is reflected from a second reflecting
mirror (21), and returns to the half mirror by an optical path (P 17 ).
The light which is input to the half mirror by the optical
path (P 17 ) is branched into two, and is output to the optical paths (P 15 ,P 16 ).
The light which is output to the optical path (P 15 ) is output from
a second port (13) to an optical fiber (3), and the light which is
output to the optical path (P 16 ) is output from a third port (15) to

recording medium and a second optical information recording
medium. The common region (A) comprises a refractive surface (A,1) of

Abstract: Les applications audio vidéo en temps réel exigent du lecteur de disque dur des délais de service de demande garantis. Cette exigence n'est pas toujours satisfaite en raison de certains retards imprévus dans les délais de service. L'une des causes de ce retard réside dans le remplacement de secteurs défectueux ou en mauvais état. Le fait de mettre en place des secteurs de réserve sur chaque piste et d'étendre l'obliquité de la piste, associé à des stratégies de lecture/écriture, au fur et à mesure de l'arrivée des données, permet d'éviter des retards supplémentaires dans les délais de service, retards occasionnés par le remplacement de certains secteurs.

Abstract: The invention relates to a GUI for enabling a user to navigate b etween a wide variety of options. With the trend of offering more applications and options to the user, like in STB's deployed in a living room, it becomes evident to present the options in an intuitive and user friendly manner. Only user options are selectable, on e.g. a TV screen, which are currently of direct interest to the user. The user can navigate between these options using, e.g., a relative simple input device like a RC. Other options are shown semi visible in the background and are like in a dormant state. With e.g. a separate button on the input device these options can be made completely visible and can even be emphasized using, e.g., an animation on the screen. The invention is especially well suited for in a data driven applications environment.

Abstract: Methods and systems for modifying DOCSIS-based transmission paths
for communication in higher frequency and/or wireless environments, such as
wireless terrestrial communication systems and satellite communication
systems. An inner turbo-code is combined with a DOCSIS based Reed-Solomon
("RS") forward error correction ("FEC") coding scheme, to produce
a concatenated turbo-RS code (other FEC codes can be utilized). In phase and
quadrature phase ("I-Q") processing is utilized to enable relatively low cost
up-converter implementations. The I-Q processing is preferably performed at
baseband, essentially pre-compensating for analog variations in the transmit
path. Power amplifier on/off control capable of controlling on/off RF power
control of remote transmitters is modulated on a transmit cable to reduce the
