Abstract: In a developing environment, a game program exists in a product ROM and a debug program exists in another ROM which is a test ROM. The debug program includes a time adjusting program and cther debug routine programs. The game program includes some statements for the debug program. When a ROM cartridge is produced as a product ROM cartridge, the test ROM is detached from the ROM cartridge and the statements for the debug program are deleted from the game program in the product ROM. The deleted area in the product ROM is left as an unusable area. However, the deleted area is very few, because the size of the statements for debug program is much fewer than the size of the debug program. Therefore, the game program is able to use almost all product ROM area.

Abstract: A subassembly includes directly-connected components (3), without use of a circuit board. The electrical connections (4) are stabilised by a casting compound (6), in which they and the components are encapsulated. The components are assembled on an insulator first, to stabilise the connections (made separately, on the top side in 'ugly' construction). Alternatively, tracks may be made on the substrate, e.g. in printed graphite. The assembly may comprise surface mounted devices (SMD) adhered to the substrate. Other constructions are exemplified. The substrate is polystyrene. The assembly is screened against electromagnetic voltages, using a conductor or the casting compound itself. The encapsulation replaces a casing, and may have flexibility, with adequate thermal dissipation.

Abstract: A laser tracking system steers a beam of laser energy which is dithered in two directions to scan the surface of a moving object. A laser energy detector detects laser energy reflected from the target. Reflected energy is filtered to distinguish dither frequencies for signals in both directions, which signals are independently analyzed to determine the location of the target in relation to the laser beam. A bias signal is generated which causes the beam of laser energy to be steered toward the target, to the tracked location on-target, or modified signals steer a portion of the beam to an optimum track location on target while offsetting most of the beam's energy to a second engagement location on target. Also, a track testing system is capable of monitoring a laser beam focused on a missile and determining the effective laser engagement on a spinning target.

Abstract: A vector trellis coded mudulation scheme (VTCM) (80; 83) is accomplished by blocking (72) input samples into a sequence of input vectors of length L, vector convolutional coding (62, 64, 66, 74, 76, 78) the input vectors to map K input vectors in N output vectors and modulating (81; 84) the output vectors into symbols from an expanded alphabet. In a first case (80), each output vector is modulated (81) to a different symbol thereby improving coding gain while maintaining bandwidth efficiency. In a second case (83), blocks of N output vectors are modulated (84) to one symbol thereby improving bandwith efficiency by the factor of N while maintaining coding gain. A polyphase/multirate representation of the vector convolutional codes is preferably used to generate the vector convolutional codes. In general, a computer search can be employed to find the polyphase coefficients that define the set of vector convolutional codes. When the input and output vectors have the same length, known scalar-valued convolutional codes are blocked to generate the vector convolutional codes (102, 104, 106, 108, 110, 112). This provides good modulation codes without having to perform a computer search.

Abstract: A description language (200) and a parser generator (202) for top-down parsers allows grammars for top-down parsers to be defined using a sequence of productions written as extended BNF expressions. For productions that are ambiguous, a lookahead construct in the grammar allows the programmer to specify an increased number of lookahead tokens. The lookahead construct can be specified on an expansion-by-expansion basis. As a result, the generated parser only maintains an increased number of lookahead tokens when required to process ambiguous productions.

Abstract: This invention relates to radio communications and in particular relates
to an adaptive antenna system for a radio communications system. In
radio communications, signals are transmitted at a particular frequency
or in a frequency band. The signals may be modulated in a variety of
fashions using techniques such as Time Division Multiple Access
(TDMA), Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), and a multitude of
other techniques. Nevertheless there are a finite number of available
individual communications channels for separate sets of parties to
communicate with each other. The present invention seeks to provide an
improved form of adaptive signal transmission and reception without
unduly increasing the signalling overhead of the system. According to
one aspect of the invention there is provided a radio system operating
over a channel having characteristics such that parameters of a
transmission path can be predicted from received signals; said system
comprising means for analysing signals received from said channel and
a plurality of signal generation means adapted to vary output in
response to said signal analysis.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a data receiving apparatus (40) and
method of a holographic or other page-wise memory system for processing
information read from the memory system's storage medium. The data apparatus
includes a multi-dimensional array of pixel elements (42) comprised of pixel
detectors (46) and corresponding pixel circuit (48). The pixel detectors detect
information such as light information representing data stored in the memory system.
The pixel circuits determine a value representative of the information detected by the
individual pixel detectors. Additionally, the apparatus includes active processing
circuitry (54) advantageously fabricated in conjunction with the pixel circuits to
provide additional "on-chip" processing capabilities, including analog inter-pixel
processing. The advantageous arrangement of the additional processing improves
processing times, reduces the unprocessed data flow out of the apparatus, and reduces
circuitry design space and cost.
