Filed: 2016-04-15
Abstract: An optical fibre 1 has a composition of 6.8wt% or more of GeO2 in its cladding region that may form a filter by refractive index modulation such as a slanted fibre Bragg grating. The optical fibre is made of silica-based glass and comprises a core region 11, which does not contain germanium dioxide (GeO2), and a cladding region 12. The cladding region has a refractive index smaller than that of the core region and contains Ge02 of 6.8wt% or more. The concentration may be 7.4wt% or less or 8.7wt% or less. A second invention has the SFG filter of the first invention but has cladding with a concentration of GeO2 between 7.4wt% and 8.7wt% and the outer diameter of the cladding region is 1.5 to 4.0 times larger than a mode field diameter at a wavelength in the C-band. The GeO2 concentration may be 7.9wt% or less and the concentration difference between the inner and outer cladding circumferences may be 0.2wt% or more. The SFG made with the optical fibre enables base loss of 2 dB or less, peak wavelength shift of 1.2 nm or less, and change of 0.2 nm or less in width at half maximum.

Title: Antenna apparatus and communication terminal instrument
Inventor: KUNIAKI YOSUI
IPC: H01Q7/00
Filed: 2011-07-27
Abstract: An antenna apparatus with a power feed circuit and a coil conductor 30 which overlaps with a first planar conductor 41 and a second conductor 42. The first conductor 41 may be larger than the second conductor and be closer to the coil. A current may be induced by electromagnetic coupling with the coil 30 in the first and second conductors 41, 42 which may boost the antenna coil 30. This provides an antenna apparatus which is less influenced by nearby metallic objects, allowing a radiation plate shape to be more freely chosen without requiring an accurate positional relation between the radiation plate and the coil conductor. The antenna apparatus may be enclosed in a communication terminal instrument with a casing which may be formed from the first planar conductor.

Patent GB-2556370-A (GB)
Title: System and method for cellular network identification
Inventor: Yahia Ahmed Eldemerdash
IPC: H04K3/00
Filed: 2017-08-25
Abstract: This application is concerned with automatic signal identification (ASI) of cellular network signals. Identification features are based on the statistical properties and characteristic features of the candidate signals. In particular, a signal magnitude test is used to determine whether the magnitude of a received signal follows a predetermined distribution (e.g. a Rayleigh distribution) representative of an OFDM signal, as used in LTE-DL (LTE downlink). This magnitude test may be performed using a cumulative distribution function (CDF). The presence of a cyclic prefix is exploited to identify a SC-FDMA signal used for LTE-UL (LTE uplink). GSM is identified based on a test to determine whether the signal samples have a constant envelope, again preferably using a CDF. Finally, the estimated signal bandwidth is used to differentiate between UMTS/W-CDMA and CDMA2000. In an alternative embodiment (Fig. 11), instead of using a magnitude test to identify LTE-DL, a peak to average power ratio (PAPR) test distinguishes LTE-DL from LTE-UL. The invention finds application in adaptive jamming, spectrum surveillance or software-defined cognitive radios.

Title: Method and system for identifying key terms in digital document
Inventor: GAURAV TRIPATHI
IPC: G06F17/27
Filed: 2017-12-30
Abstract: A method for identifying key terms in a digital document comprises providing the digital document, which contains a first text in a first language. The document is analysed by translating the first text in the first language into a second text in a second language, translating the first text into a third text in a third language, and translating the obtained second text in the second language into a fourth text in the third language. At least one pair of the first text, second text, third text and fourth text is compared to identify at least one set of similar text between the compared at least one pair, and the set of similar text is processed to obtain key terms in the digital document. Relevant keywords are more likely to remain identifiable when translated, and so by comparing multiple translated texts, the most salient words can be extracted.
