Abstract: A particulate toner composition comprises a dry blend of a low viscosity polymeric
particulate toner component having a first selected melt viscosity and a first selected melt
elasticity, and a high viscosity polymeric particulate toner component having a second
selected melt viscosity and a second selected melt elasticity. The first and second melt
viscosities and first and second melt elasticities are each selected so as to produce a lower
variation in measured G 60  gloss values as a function of fusing temperature for fused images
formed from the dry blend toner composition than the corresponding variation in measured
G 60  gloss values for fused images formed from the low viscosity polymeric toner
component of the composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel photodetector
structure and method whereby light is detected in
a semiconductor substrate. Through the use of a small
current of majority carriers an electrical field is created
that directs photo-generated minority carriers towards a
detection region. In this way, a large sensitive area 34
for a detector can be designed with a detection region
having low junction area and low associated detector
capacitance, thus enhancing output signal to noise ratio
and/or speed of attached readout circuits. Simultaneously,
the assistant majority current can sweep the minority
carriers from deep within the substrate towards the
detection region, thus improving the overall detector
sensitivity. By making the majority current reconfigurable,
a photonic mixer structure with two or more detection
regions can be conceived, whereby the direction of the
applied current will determine in an efficient way to which
detection region the photo-generated minority carriers will
be directed. In this way, incident modulated light can get
demodulated, such that phase and amplitude of the modulated
light can be measured for a.o. range finding applications.

Abstract: A method for processing a plurality of signals, comprising the steps of:
sampling n samples from each of a plurality of analog signals S i (t),
multiplying by corresponded m X n linearly independent function groups
 i a j (t), adding the resultants to establish the transformed signals S 0   i (t),
summing all the transformed signals S 0   i (t) to produce a preliminary mixed
signal SM(t); this preliminary mixed signal SM(t) being mathematically
processed with the synchronous signal  sin(qw 0 t)  and the interruption
cancellation signal  sin(pw 0 t)  which contains the basic angular frequency  w 0   
to establish a new signal SMS(t) for transmitting; wherein, SMS(t)=Sin(pw o t)
×SM(t)+Sin(qw o t). In order to cancel interruptions during transmitting,
the value of signal SMS(t) is zero at the boundaries of each time period..
In additions, the frequency range of the linearly independent signal  i a j (t) is
between  A i     T   1  /  v   Hz  ∼ ( A i     T   1  /  v +  T   1  / 2 v ) Hz  and  A i     T   1  /  v   Hz  ∼ ( A i     T   1  /  v +  T   1  / 2 v ) Hz . 
     Moreover, to simplify the processing, appropriate intervals can be placed
between every  i a j (t).

Abstract: A gain control system (40) in a Direct Conversion Receiver (10) or similar receiver,
includes an automatic gain control circuit (52) which determines whether a low noise
amplifier, which amplifies signals from an antenna (46) prior to mixing with signals
from a local oscillator (50), should be set to a high gain or a low gain. The output of the
mixer (48) is analyzed by a blocker detect circuit (56) to determine whether a blocker
signal is present. Based on the presence of a blocker signal and the power level of the
useful signal, the gain of the low noise amplifier may be reduced from the high gain to
an intermediate gain in order to reduce self mixing between the radio frequency and
local oscillator ports of the mixer, which may lead to dynamic DC offsets.

Abstract: In order to determine the actual on-off gain of a Roman amplifier (RA) in a
fiber optical communication system, a low frequency signal modulation is
applied to the Raman pump beam. A corresponding intensity modulation is
then measured at the signal beam and the on-off Raman gain is determined
from this detected intensity modulation. The Roman optical amplifier (RA)
contains a pump light source (LD) coupled to a fiber (F) of the communication
system to launch a pump light signal into said fiber for amplifying an optical
signal traversing said fiber (F) by stimulated Roman amplification. A low-frequency
modulator (MO) is coupled to said pump light source (LD) for
applying a low frequency intensity modulation to said pump light signal. A
detector (PD) detects a corresponding low frequency amplitude modulation in
said signal traversing said optical fiber (F). A controller dynamically
determines a parameter of amplification of said optical amplifier (RA).

Abstract: A method and a circuit to achieve a low dropout voltage regulator having a
constant high performance under all operating conditions, including the dropout
region, have been accomplished. A regulated cascade structure is placed at the
input of a current mirror and in connection with a voltage regulator output stage. In
contrast to other applications the positive input of the error amplifier is not biased
with a reference voltage but connected to the regulator output. Therefore the
cascade structure regulates the voltage of the entry node of the current mirror to
be equal to the output voltage of the regulator under all operating conditions of the
regulator. Thus the transistors of the current mirror have always identical drain-source
voltages. Therefore the regulator is kept in the optimal, balanced operating
point, a constant high regulator loop gain is achieved and PSRR and load
regulation performance is no more reduced under dropout operating conditions.

section 13 parallel converts the symbol sequence
input in series, an S/P section 14 parallel converts
the symbol sequence input in series, and an IFFT
section 15 provides IFFT processing to the input
symbol sequence. Since each of multiple same bits
duplicated by the duplicating section 11 is included

Abstract: A stepchain for a passenger conveyor includes a plurality of stepchain links (30, 130, 230). There is only one link-to-link interface (31) on each side of the steps (24) such that the number of links (30) on each side of the steps (24) is equal to the number of steps (24). The inventive arrangement reduces rotation or contraction of the stepchain between steps (24). Elongation of the stepchain is also reduced as there is a reduction in the number of interfaces (31). The inventive arrangement also facilitates arcuate movement of the steps (24) along a constant radius through the transition zones between the inclined area (27) and the landing areas (29). Having a truly arcuate movement allows for reducing the gap (33) between the steps (24) at the transition zones. In one example at least one needle bearing (190) is associated with an attachment mechanism (184, 284) at the interface (31) between adjacent links (30) to allow for rotation between the stepchain links (30) and to eliminate the need for lubrication.

Abstract: This invention is about a novel estimation technique for generating a predistortion function to compensate for the AM-AM and AM-PM non-linear conversion distortions of non-linear power amplifiers or non-linear circuits. Based on the cumulative type of power amplifier output envelope, a non-parametric baseband predistortion function is derived. The non-parametric approach avoids any model mismatch. In addition, the technique does not need to demodulate the input signal. Furthermore, it minimizes the effect of the power amplifier non-linearity and significantly improves the system performance

The skirt (16) terminates in a peripheral edge (18), wherein at least portions of the peripheral edge (18) are free and displaceable to a greater diameter of the tubular body (12).
