Abstract: When a slip control system is not operating, a speed ratio control device uses a
sensor detected vehicle speed for speed ratio control, and when the slip control
system is operating, it uses an estimated vehicle speed for speed ratio control. It is
determined whether a variation amount of the estimated vehicle speed is greater than
a threshold set to a variation amount which could not be obtained when there is no
error. When the variation amount of the estimated vehicle speed is greater than the
threshold, it is determined that the estimated vehicle speed is abnormal, and use of
the estimated vehicle speed for speed ratio control is prohibited.

of a conveyor belt cleaner includes a biasing member (42). A first end (44) of the
biasing member includes a first coupler member (68) and a second end (46) of the

member is rotationally coupled to the actuator member (60) for conjoint rotation at
least in one rotational direction. A locking member selectively engages the actuator
member (60) to prevent unintentional rotation of the actuator member in at least one

Inventor: JOHNSON JOHN EVAN
IPC: H04B10/43
Filed: 2000-10-09
Abstract: An optical transmitter for generating any one of N carrier signals for use
in an M-channel WDM system (M ≥ N), each channel operating at a different
carrier wavelength λ s  (s = 1, 2 ...M), includes an optical source for generating
the carrier signals at any one of multiplicity of N wavelengths λ i  (i = 1,2...N),
where (1 ≤ N ≤ M). A first controller selects a particular one of the wavelengths
λ i  at which the source operates. An optical modulator receives the carrier
signal corresponding to the selected wavelength λ i  and impresses information
on the received signal. The modulator has a characteristic electronic bandgap
and a wavelength λ g  corresponding thereto. At a given temperature, λ g  is
offset from each λ i  by an amount Δλ i . For each wavelength λ i  there is a
predetermined value of Δλ i  which delivers preferred (e.g., optimum)
transmission performance. In general, however, the actual Δλ i  may not be
equal to the predetermined Δλ i  for all values of  i . The difference between the
actual Δλ i  and the predetermined Δλ i  is termed the  detuning error . In
accordance with one aspect of my invention, the transmitter includes a second
controller for minimizing the detuning error. In a preferred embodiment, the
second controller changes the temperature of the modulator as the wavelength
of the source is changed (i.e., as different λ i  are selected) so that Δλ i  is
controlled according to the above criterion. In one embodiment, in which the
wavelength of the source can be tuned independent of the temperature of the
modulator, the second controller maintains the detuning error essentially zero
for all values of  i  selected. In another embodiment, in which the wavelength of
source is not tuned independent of the temperature of the modulator, λ i  is
detuned from λ s  by a predetermined amount related to the rate of change of λ i 
and λ g  with respect to temperature.
