Abstract: A low cost prefabricated fireplace is provided with an open-ended fireplace box which requires no outer sheet metal shroud or housing as employed in the prior art sheet metal fireplaces. The novel fireplace box has at least five walls which consist substantially of insulating reinforced ceramic fiber (RCF) material and a binder. A modular burner system is removably mounted on the bottom wall of the fireplace box and a floor panel is mounted on the modular burner system forming an air chamber below the floor panel in the fireplace box. A decorative surround trim is attached to the open end of the fireplace box which serves to support fixed or operable glass doors. A log set which may include a log burner is mounted above the floor panel which supports a decorative log set. Apertures are made in the top sides or of the fireplace box to accommodate an air supply and/or an-exhaust stack. The fireplace box serves as a base unit to which other fireplace components are attached, connected or supported so that the need for conventional sheet metal is substantially eliminated. The resulting fireplace can be completed in many different configurations using a common fireplace box which needs no additional surrounding insulation for installation in a room.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de mappage des informations sur aux moins deux porteuses simultanées (202, 206, 208) présentant des fréquences différentes dans un système de modulation à porteuses multiples. Ce procédé comprend l'étape consistant à contrôler les paramètres respectifs d'au moins deux porteuses de telle sorte que les informations soient codées de manière différentielle. L'invention traite également d'un procédé de démappage des informations fondé sur au moins deux porteuses codées simultanées présentant des fréquences différentes dans un système de démodulation à porteuses multiples. Ce dernier procédé comprend l'étape consistant à récupérer les inforamtion par un décodage différentiel (142) des paramètres respectifs d'au moins deux porteuses. Dans un procédé réalisant une correction de décalage de la phase d'écho dans un système de démodulation à porteuses multiples, des déplacements de phases sont décodés par des phases différentielles (142) en fonction d'une différence de phases entre des porteuses simultanées présentant des fréquences différentes. Un décalage de phase d'écho est déterminé pour chaque déplacement de phase décodé en supprimant (500) les incertitudes relatives au déplacement de phase correspondant aux déplacements de phases pouvant être codés à partir du déplacement de phase décodé. On calcule la moyenne (520) des décalages de phases d'écho pour générer une moyenne de décalage. Enfin, chaque déplacement de phase décodé est corrigé (524) en se fondant sur la moyenne du décalage.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de mesure non invasif du glucose et un procédé permettant de déterminer le taux de glycémie sanguine dans le corps humain, au moyen dudit dispositif. Le dispositif de mesure du glucose est en général autonormalisant, dans le sens où aucun échantillon de référence indépendant n'est utilisé pour cette opération. Le dispositif fait intervenir la spectroscopie infrarouge par réflexion totale atténuée (ATR). Il est de préférence utilisé sur le bout d'un doigt. Pour déterminer le taux de glycémie sanguine du sujet, on compare deux régions spécifiques d'un spectre infrarouge mesuré. Il va de soi que ce dispositif convient tout particulièrement à la surveillance du taux de glycémie dans le corps humain et qu'il est utile en particulier aux sujets atteints du diabète sucré. Le dispositif et le procédé de l'invention peuvent être employés pour d'autres analytes qui présentent des signatures uniques dans l'infrarouge moyen du type décrit dans le cadre de cette invention, et qui sont situées dans des régions appropriées de la peau externe.
