Abstract: Device comprises a device for producing two or more narrow laser light beams, a multiplexor for alternating power supply to each laser source, an analysis device and a reflector housing with a prism and or mirror arrangement. By separate and alternating activation of the light sources it is possible to use a single target receiver for the laser beam. The alternating operation of the laser light sources can be modified using pulse code modulation. Using such modulation the laser light can transmit user information to an external receiver device. The invention also relates to a method of operation of a device for alignment of machine parts.

Abstract: A method and an arrangement is disclosed for linearizing the output signal from an inherently non-linear device, e.g. an amplifier, producing intermodulation or non-linear products. A pre-distorter having a unity transfer function is located between a signal input and the input of the inherently non-linear device. Furthermore a second device forming a post-distorter is coupled to the output of the nonlinear device in a way to be able to handle the amplified output signal or a portion of the output signal. According to the present method the post-distorter is optimized to give as output the same signal spectrum content as what is input to the non-linear device, whereafter the achieved parameters of the post-distorter are transferred to the pre-distorter. In other words a copy of the optimized post-distorter is then used as a pre-distorter in front of the non-linear device to obtain an improved output signal in terms of signal quality from the inherently non-linear device. The post-distorter is then optimized once more and parameters are again transferred to the pre-distorter as a further as a further small correction. In operation this is then generally repeated in a suitable scheduled way to give an ongoing correction to the pre-distortion. The pre-distorter and post-distorter may both be either digital devices or analog devices.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé permettant d'améliorer les performances d'un trajet de retour dans un système de télévision hybride fibre/câble coaxial par transport optique en série sur bande de base. Ce procédé consiste à recevoir une forme d'onde de trajet de retour analogique composite à une entrée comparateur destinée à un émetteur de retour numérique comprenant un convertisseur analogique-numérique et un premier processeur non linéaire. Une première fonction traitement est appliquée à une sortie de signal provenant du comparateur au premier processeur non linéaire, puis le signal traité est réacheminé vers le convertisseur analogique-numérique qui converti le signal traité afin de produire un signal de sortie quantifié d'une séquence de mots numériques dont les valeurs représentent des exemples de signal analogique. Le signal numérique quantifié est transmis à une sortie de l'émetteur de retour numérique et à une boucle de rétroaction comprenant un convertisseur numérique-analogique qui converti le signal numérique quantifié en un signal de rétroaction analogique et réachemine ce signal vers un second processeur. Le second processeur applique une seconde fonction traitement au signal de rétroaction analogique puis transmet le signal de rétroaction analogique traité à une entrée comparateur de l'émetteur de retour numérique. Le comparateur saisi dans l'émetteur de retour numérique ajoute le signal de rétroaction analogique traité à la forme d'onde de trajet de retour analogique composite de manière à créer la sortie de signal à partir du comparateur.

Abstract: A method and a device for the intermittent or continuous measurement of portal blood pressure using a tamponade balloon inserted into the esophagus and stomach and a sensor positioned on the bridle, tamponade shaft or esophageal balloon. The tamponade balloons mounted over a tube are placed across the diaphragmatic hiatus and are gradually inflated through a lumen that runs from the balloons to a position that is external from the patient. The measured pressure within the tamponade is increased until the blood flow in the collateral portal veins that traverse the diaphragm are occluded. The cessation of the blood flow into the esophageal varices is signaled when the sensor identifies a change in diameter of the varices, a change in the color of the esophageal wall, or a change in velocity of blood flow. The measured tamponade pressure at the nadir of variceal blood flow is equivalent to portal blood pressure.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions, methods, and kits for covalently linking nucleic acid molecules. The methods include a strand invasion step, and the compositions and kits are useful for performing such methods. For example, a method of covalently linking double stranded (ds) nucleic acid molecules can include contacting a first ds nucleic acid molecule, which has a topoisomerase linked to a 3′ terminus of one end and has a single stranded 5′ overhang at the same end, with a second ds nucleic acid molecule having a blunt end, such that the 5′ overhang can hybridize to a complementary sequence of the blunt end of the second nucleic acid molecule, and the topoisomerase can covalently link the ds nucleic acid molecules. The methods are simpler and more efficient than previous methods for covalently linking nucleic acid sequences, and the compositions and kits facilitate practicing the methods, including methods of directionally linking two or more ds nucleic acid molecules.
