Abstract: In a system for the control of the quality of a laser cut or perforation, comprising means (4) to focus a laser beam (1) onto a cut or perforation zone, photodiode sensor means (7) to detect the radiation (E) emitted by the cut or perforation zone, and a control and processing electronic unit (8) to process the signals emitted by said sensor means (7) an optical filter (11) is provided that is associated with said photodiode sensor means (7) to select an optical band around 620 nm. The signal coming from said sensor means (7) is acquired with a frequency comprised between 10 and 60 kHz and filtered with a band-pass filter between 7 and 16 kHz. In this way the control of the quality of the cut or perforation can be carried out on the basis of the sole signal thus processed, without the need of a comparison with the predetermined reference signal corresponding to a good quality cut or perforation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The mechanism has particular application for preloading ball or like roller-element bearings. An upper thrust ring 11 and a lower thrust ring 12 are connected together by suspension blades 14 which permit relative axial movement between the thrust rings. An actuator ring 13 is connected by a plurality of pairs of flex strut elements 16 to the thrust rings. Rotation of the actuator ring 13 relative to the thrust rings by motors 17 applies a force through the flex strut elements 16 which tends to change the axial separation of the thrust rings with an over center toggle action of the flex strut elements 16.

Abstract: The present invention provides a device and a method for separating particles from fluids using ultrasound, laminar flow, and stationary wave effects comprising a micro-technology channel system with an integrated branching point or branching fork, and a single ultrasound source. One of the characteristics of the invention is that the single ultrasound source, which generates the standing waves, excites the complete structure including the channel system. No special reflectors or the like are needed. Extremely thin dividers can separate the flow, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of the device. The device could be manufactured in silicon and the ultrasound energy could preferably be delivered by a piezoelectric element.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for a generalized scheduler for scheduling transmissions in a communications system. The scheduler is defined by a priority function of the channel condition and fairness criteria. The generalized scheduler is adapted to apply a variety of combinations of channel condition metrics and user fairness metrics. The scheduler distinguishes among classes of users, allowing individual processing per class. In one embodiment, a system controller receives a Delivery Priority Parameter (DPP) for each of a plurality of users, and maps each DPP to a corresponding common Mapped Priority Parameter (MPP). An operating point is determined and a corresponding MPP value for each of the users is applied to schedule transmissions.

Abstract: In a communication system, a method and an accompanying apparatus provide for efficient modulation and demodulation processes. In a transmitter (100), a ratio of power level of a communication channel over power level of a pilot channel is determined to produce a power level ratio. The power level ratio is quantized within a finite digital word. A quantized quadrature amplitude modulation distance, in a quadrature amplitude modulation constellation, is determined based on the quantized power level ratio. A signal, in accordance with a quadrature amplitude modulation technique, is modulated using the quantized distance, and transmitted to a receiver (160).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the use of a live, recombinant leporipox virus comprising exogenous DNA, which is operably linked to at least one expression control element and which is incorporated in a non-essential region of the virus genome, in the manufacture of a vector vaccine for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of infectious diseases in non-lepori species. The invention furthermore relates to a live, recombinant leporipox virus comprising exogenous DNA operably linked to at least one expression control element and incorporated in a non-essential region of the virus genome characterized in that said exogenous DNA encodes at least one antigen of a non-lepori pathogen. Due to its restricted host-range the recombinant leporipox virus is non-pathogenic in non-susceptible hosts such as non-lepori vertebrates. Vaccination with said recombinant leporipox virus induced an antigen or immunogenic response in the vaccinated non-lepori host even though productive replication of the virus was not observed in the host.

Abstract: A plate-making system, in which a light-sensitive lithographic printing plate carrying an interleaf paper superimposed thereon and/or an original plate for making a dummy plate carrying an interleaf paper superimposed thereon are processed in a plate-setter provided with an automatic interleaf paper-removing mechanism and an automatic developing machine, is characterized in that it comprises a means for detecting the presence of any interleaf paper on the lithographic printing plate and/or the original plate or a means for discriminating the interleaf paper, the light-sensitive lithographic printing plate and the original plate. A plate-making method of the invention is characterized by irradiating the interleaf paper, the lithographic printing plate and the original plate for making a dummy plate with sensor light rays after they are passed through the automatic interleaf paper-removing mechanism and determining the intensity of the light to thus detect any interleaf paper possibly present on the plates or discriminate the interleaf paper, the light-sensitive lithographic printing plate and the original plate for making a dummy plate from one another. The plate-making method permits the reliable detection of the presence of interleaf papers on light-sensitive lithographic printing plates and/or original plates for dummy plates and the plate-making operations can thus stably be carried out using a plate-setter and an automatic developing machine. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for estimating the downlink signature for a remote transceiver (141,143) which is part of a wireless communication system that includes a main transceiver (101) for communicating with the remote transceiver. The main transceiver includes an array of transmit antenna elements (105). The method uses the remote transceiver for receiving signals when the main transceiver transmits downlink calibration signals. When the main transceiver also has a receive antenna array, the remote transceiver can transmit uplink calibration signals to the main transceiver for determining an uplink signature. The downlink and uplink signatures are used to determine a calibration function to account for differences in the apparatus chains that include the antenna elements of the arrays, and that enable downlink smart antenna processing weights (118) to be determined from uplink smart antenna processing weights (115) when the main transceiver includes means for smart antenna processing according to weights. <IMAGE>
