Patent EP-0893149-A3 (EP)
Inventor: MORIHIRA SHIGEKI
IPC: A63F13/52
Filed: 1998-07-23
Abstract: When a player character moves closer to an opponent
character, the viewpoint of a hypothetical camera which
is capturing the image of the characters also moves
closely to the characters, and a distance extractor determines
the distance from the viewpoint of the hypothetical
camera to an object model as an obstacle behind which one
of the characters is concealed. Then, a transparency extractor
obtains a transparency level corresponding to the
determined distance from a transparency information table.
Using the obtained transparency level, an image data processor
generates image data of pixels of the object model,
and combines the generated image data with image data of
pixels of the character.

IPC: H04B7/24

Abstract: In a mobile communication system with space division multiple access, under
channel re-use conditions, the channel to be assigned to a terminal is determined by
evaluating a cost of the assignment of each channel already in use. This cost is a function
of the mean time that elapses between two successive channel assignments to the
terminal, and it allows identifying the channel that allows maximising that time. The
evaluation is performed by using cost coefficients that take into account information on
the topology of the cell and on the mobility of the terminals and are determined in a
system initialisation phase by subdividing the cell into sectors and by detecting the
instants of collision between terminals.

Inventor: MYERS JAMES LLEWELLYN JR
IPC: H04W64/00
Filed: 1998-04-24
Abstract: A system to reduce the acquisition time necessary to access a GPS signal used to
deterrffine the positional coordinates of a user associated with a wireless communications
system. A wireless communications system can provide telephony and data service to mobile
users throughout a large area. The wireless communications system provides transmissions
and reception in a plurality of spotbeams or cells (17, 18, 19) comprising the large area.
Each spotbeam or cell may be very large, up to 1500 km. in diameter for some satellite based
systems, which precludes determining the subscribers precise location from his spotbeam ID
or cell ID alone. With this invention, the wireless network broadcasts to user terminals
within each spotbeam or cell, the GPS ID of all satellites that are visible within the zone
along with Doppler and signal strength estimates for the visible GPS satellites. The user
terminal (20) has a GPS receiver which is capable of receiving the C/A codes from the GPS
satellites. The user terminal uses the broadcast GPS aiding data to quickly acquire the GPS
C/A signals for all visible GPS satellites (14, 15, 16). The user terminal then returns the GPS
C/A code measurements to the wireless network (24, 25, 11) which processes the
measurements in conjunction with separate GPS data which it also receives to determine the
users location. This precludes the user terminal from having to perform all the functions
necessary to compute the geolocation. In this manner, the location of the user can be rapidly
determined while reducing the cost of the user terminal.

Abstract: To display a broadcasting program guide table, in which a
group of program guide elements of a broadcasting program
guide is arranged in a cell for each broadcasting program
guide, a group of particular program guide elements of one
broadcasting program guide is selected in an information
element selecting unit from a plurality of program guide
elements of the broadcasting program guide according to a
detail degree input by a user for each broadcasting program
guide. The detail degree corresponds to an information volume
of the group of particular program guide elements. In a
display information table producing unit, a particular layout
of a plurality of cells arranged along each display axis is
determined according to the detail degree and particular
program guide arrangement information stored in advance. The
particular program guide arrangement information indicates a
guide attribute along each display axis. The groups of
particular program guide elements of the broadcasting program
guides are set in the cells to be arranged along each display
axis on the basis of the guide attribute, and an image of a
broadcasting program guide table indicating the groups of
particular program guide elements arranged in the cells is
displayed in a display image output unit. Therefore, the user
can easily compare the broadcasting program guides arranged at
desired layout at the same desired detail degree.

Abstract: A plasma display device has a display panel
including first and second electrodes arranged in
parallel with one another and third electrodes arranged
to be orthogonal to the first and second electrodes. A
slit coincident with a line formed by discharge cells
is selected by applying a scanning pulse and addressing
signal at an addressing step (A) and sustaining
discharge (S) is initiated in the selected slit at a
sustaining discharge step. In a drive method for the
plasma display device, first and second slits are
defined between a second electrode and first electrodes
on one side and the other side of the second electrode.
Interlacing is carried out by displaying lines
coincident with the first slit and second slit
alternately. A charge adjustment step (T) is set
between the addressing step and sustaining discharge
step. At the charge adjustment step, a charge
adjustment pulse is applied in order to adjust at least
one of the polarity and magnitude of a wall charge
accumulated due to discharge occurring at the
addressing step. 
     Such a drive method can ensure normal display on a
stable basis for a plasma display panel in which
sustaining discharge pulses that are mutually out of
phase are applied to adjoining slits in order to
initiate sustaining discharge, and to thus specify
display slits between a Y electrode and X electrodes
across the Y electrode.

Filed: 1999-01-22
Abstract: An air bearing is usable in a vacuum, by
restricting the air escaping from the air bearing to the
immediate vicinity of the air bearing. This is
accomplished by one or more pump-out slots (68)
concentrically surrounding the air bearing orifice (60), and
by concentrically surrounding the outer pump-out slot (68)
with a sealing sheet (86) which confines air escaping from
outside the pump-out slots to within the perimeter of
the sealing sheet. The sealing sheet (86) is a compliant
mechanical "wall", making only marginal contact with the
bearing support surface, and is not a high friction
seal. Hence free movement of the air bearing structure
on the supporting surface is allowed, thus making this
air bearing compatible with for instance an XY stage
used in a vacuum chamber.
