Patent EP-0969477-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MORIMURA HIROKI
IPC: G11C27/02
Filed: 1999-07-01
Abstract: A small capacitance change detection device
includes a capacitance detection element, signal
generation circuit, signal amplification circuit, and
output circuit. The signal amplification circuit
includes a first transistor and first to third voltage
sources. The second or third voltage source is
connected to the other output terminal of the first
transistor via a first switch. A voltage to be applied
from the second voltage source to the other output
terminal is set to have a value equal to or larger than
a value obtained by subtracting a threshold voltage of
the first transistor from a voltage of the first voltage
source while a voltage to be applied from the third
voltage source to the other output terminal is set to
have a value equal to or smaller than a value obtained
by subtracting the threshold voltage from the voltage of
the first voltage source. The output circuit is
connected to a connection point between the other output
terminal of the first transistor and the first switch
and, after a voltage of the second or third voltage
source is applied to the connection point in an ON state
of the first switch, receives the voltage at the
connection point on the basis of an OFF state of the
first switch and charge control by the signal generation
circuit after the first switch is turned off.

Abstract: A system and method in a wireless communications system enables a preferred frequency hopping (FH) sequence to be determined and instituted in real-time. The average speed of mobile stations within a cell is determined or estimated using a variety of techniques. If the average speed is below a predetermined threshold, then a cyclic FH sequence is instituted to achieve superior frequency diversity and therefore combat small-scale fading dips. If the average speed is above a predetermined threshold, then a random FH sequence is instituted to achieve superior interference averaging and therefore combat co-channel interference. Delay timers and a hysterisis may also be used to enhance stability and to counteract short-term fluctuations. The measuring of the average speed and the comparing of the average speed to be threshold are periodically repeated.

Abstract: A method and device for generating a choice of individual photons or photon pairs in an optical channel. The generation of this choice involves generating a two-photon state corresponding to a photon pair and spatially separating the photon pair while preserving the quantum-mechanical correlation, in the event the photons are emitted in a collinear manner. One photon is coupled into one optical channel each, the one channel containing an interferometer with variable optical path-length difference delta1F-delta1S, and the other channel including an optical delay section having the optical length delta1. The channels are spatially reunited through a beam splitter, and an adjustment of the quantities delta1F, delta1S, and delta1 occurs in such a way that the probability K for coincidences between the outputs of the beam splitter is a choice of approximately K=0 or approximately K=1, or approximately a predetermined intermediate value, with K=0 corresponding to a photon pair in one of the output channels of the beam splitter, and K=1 corresponding to two individual photons in both output channels of the beam splitter. With this choice generation, an optical separating filter or gate can be implemented for a choice of one-photon or two-photon states, which is usable in quantum cryptography and as a basic element of a quantum-optical computing machine.

Ledit actionneur comporte un stator doté de pôles (3a, 3b, 3c), des enroulements (6) d'excitation et une plaque de fixation (7). Des bras (4a, 4b) de support non magnétiques portent des pôles aimantés (2a, 2b) situés en arc de cercle et actionnent une paire de diaphragmes comprimés (5a, 5b). Avec l'introduction de courant dans l'enroulement, les pôles (2a, 2b) d'aimant sont attirés par le pôle (3b) central de stator et repoussés par les pôles externes (3a, 3c).
