Abstract: A method of remotely sensing an environmental condition is
provided which avoids measurement errors due to transponder
heat-up. An interrogation pulse of predetermined duration
for providing power is received and subsequently rectified.
Thereafter, the rectified interrogation pulse is stored up
to a predetermined amount of voltage. The predetermined
amount of voltage is detected, subsequent to storing the
rectified interrogation pulse. In response to detection of
the predetermined amount of voltage, the environmental condition
is immediately measured and subsequently stored. A
decrease in the power level of the interrogation pulse is
detected, subsequent to storing the environmental condition.
The measured environmental condition is retrieved, and in
response to detection of the predetermined amount of voltage
and the decrease in the power level of the interrogation
pulse, a response signal is transmitted.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif pour le traitement de liquides dans lequel les liquides traversent un matériau poreux sous forme de bande. Le dispositif comprend un boîtier présentant une arrivée et une sortie de liquide séparées l'une de l'autre par au moins une couche d'un matériau poreux plan. Des canaux tangentiels d'alimentation et d'évacuation des liquides sont formés entre l'arrivée et la bande de matériau poreux d'une part et la sortie d'autre part. Dans un tel dispositif, il faut éviter un volume mort inutilement grand et la pression de service appliquée doit être utilisée aussi complètement que possible pour la perméation des liquides à travers la bande de matériau poreux. On adapte à cet effet la perméabilité hydraulique des canaux tangentiels à la perméabilité hydraulique du matériau poreux. On s'est rendu compte avec étonnement qu'il est possible de concevoir le dimensionnement des canaux tangentiels pour une application précise sans processus d'optimisation empirique coûteux.

Abstract: L'invention permet de supprimer la limite minimum de zone habituelle pour radar à antenne synthétique (SAR) (204) imposée par des considérations d'ambiguïté au moyen d'un format d'émetteur émettant des sous-impulsions (256) spécifiques. Des formats de signaux conçus pour mettre en oeuvre de telles impulsions comprennent une répartition en fréquence (p. ex. on utilise une bande de fréquence différente pour chaque impulsion) et une différence de code (p. ex. on regroupe les sous-impulsions occupant la même bande de fréquence en combinaisons spécifiques). La période d'impulsion nominale est divisée en N sous-impulsions (252) et le groupe de sous-impulsions est émis avec la fréquence (f) (256) de répétition des impulsions nominales. On détermine la plage d'ambiguïtés selon la vitesse de répétition du groupe (f) et on détermine les ambiguïtés en azimut selon la vitesse de répétition des sous-impulsions (N f). L'antenne peut échantillonner une largeur de bande Doppler qui est un facteur de N fois la valeur habituelle et la zone d'antenne (22) peut subir une réduction selon un facteur N à partir de la valeur limite utilisée dans la conception d'antennes SAR. On peut, par exemple, obtenir une réduction de la longueur d'antenne selon un facteur N aux dépens d'une diminution de la détection d'un signal de N et une augmentation de la largeur de bande de signaux selon le même facteur. Selon une autre variante, on peut réduire une longueur d'antenne identique de N et une augmentation de la détection d'un signal selon un facteur N en utilisant la largeur de bande d'origine si la résolution est détériorée par N.
