Patent EP-0889580-A2 (EP)
Inventor: COUTURE PIERRE
IPC: H02P6/20
Filed: 1995-12-05
Abstract: The method for starting the synchronous machine comprising rotor and stator with windings requires knowledge of the initial position of the rotor w.r.t. the stator. The method involves a first step of determining the vector sum of a series of current vectors to be applied to the windings, a second step of applying these current vectors to the windings, and a third step of sensing the rotor movement. In response to the detected movement, a subsequent vector sum is compensated in order to return the rotor to its initial position. Whether or not the rotor actually returns to its starting position is determined, and further calculation allows determination of the necessary vector sums to be applied to achieve the desired rotation.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system
that allows a subscriber to take a telephone call over the
Internet when the subscriber telephone line is busy
servicing a browser-based Internet session without requiring
that the subscriber disconnect or terminate the Internet
session. The system transfers a telephone call to a
subscriber telephone line that is busy to a call servicing
platform where the platform determines if the subscriber
line is busy due to an interactive Internet session. When a
session is in progress, the platform informs the subscriber
via a network message to the subscriber's personal computer
involved in the session that a call is waiting. If the
subscriber accepts the call, the platform digitizes the
speech of the caller and sends it to the computer where it
is output to the subscriber. At the same time, the computer
digitizes the speech of the subscriber and sends it to the
platform, where it is output to the caller. The system can
also allow the subscriber to screen the caller by listening
to the caller as a message is recorded. The network session
can continue during the transfer of the speech or resume
after the call is finished, that is, the session need not be
terminated to free the telephone line to carry the call.

Abstract: A radio transmission signal consisting of signal frames that comprise a
dynamic data part and a quasi-static data part according to the present
invention is characterized in that the dynamic data part of a respective frame
contains an indicator showing in which following frame the quasi-static data
part of this respective frame will be repeated. Therewith, an alternative

satisfactorily be checked before a fast seamless switching to this alternative
frequency can be performed. The inventive method to perform a seamless
switching of a receiver from a first currently tuned frequency to a second
alternative frequency is characterized by the step of receiving at least one set
of samples from a respective signal transmitted on at least one second
frequency during a time period during which said indicator assures that it is
secure that only data that has been transmitted at least once is transmitted as
signal on said first frequency to gather some information about said
alternative frequency.

Abstract: An electro-optic sampling oscilloscope (1) (or EOS oscilloscope) uses an electro-optic probe (2) containing an electro-optic crystal, which is placed under effect of an electric field caused by a measured signal. Laser pulses are supplied to the electro-optic crystal wherein they are subjected to polarization. Then, measurement data representative of a waveform of the measured signal are produced in response to polarization states of the laser pulses and are stored in a measurement data storage (36). The EOS oscilloscope is characterized by providing user friendly display processing. Herein, a user is capable of selecting specific measurement data by using a list of files of multiple measurement data which is displayed on a screen. Then, the EOS oscilloscope displays an outline waveform which is created based on a reduced number of sample points extracted from the selected measurement data. In addition, it is possible to input comments and/or measurement conditions with respect to the measurement data. The comments and/or measurement conditions are stored in the measurement data storage in relation to the measurement data, so that they are adequately displayed on the screen. Further, it is possible to emphasize display of specific items of the measurement conditions, which the user is capable of designating and changing according to needs. Thus, the EOS oscilloscope provides a user friendly visual display for displaying the measurement data, measurement conditions, comments and outline waveforms on the screen.
