Patent GB-2325737-A (GB)
Title: Interferometric measuring system
Inventor: DRABAREK PAWEL
IPC: G01B11/30
Filed: 1998-05-26
Abstract: An interferometric measuring system comprises means to generate a beam of short coherence radiation 1 and a beam splitter ST1 for forming a test beam 3 and a reference beam 4. The reference arm of the interferometer includes means 8,9 for periodically changing the optical path length of the reference beam and which introduces an offset between the incoming and outgoing beam whilst keeping them parallel to each other.

Title: Using a supervision signal to control an amplifier which amplifies delayed data signals
Inventor: CHOI DOE-IN
IPC: H01S3/067
Filed: 1998-09-24
Abstract: A wavelength division multiplexed transmission system and a transmitting method using the same are provided. The wavelength division multiplexed transmission system includes a transmitting optical terminal station for transmitting a supervision channel, delaying a plurality of data channels by a predetermined time, and transmitting the delayed data channels, a plurality of wavelength division multiplexed optical amplifying portions for controlling amplification gain according to gain information included in the supervision channel and amplifying the delayed and incident data channels according to the controlled gain, and a receiving optical terminal station for receiving the supervision channel and the data channels output from the wavelength division multiplexed optical amplifying portion. According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent loss of data due to an imbalance in the gain during optical transmission processes since the optical amplification is performed in a state in which the gain control is completed before the data channels are input by letting the data channels corresponding to the current supervision channel continuously perform delay by a certain time which can be set before starting a service.

Title: Image creating device
Inventor: SAWANO TAKAO
IPC: G06T19/00
Filed: 1998-11-11
Abstract: A frame of still picture data is captured at an instant specified by a user from video signals supplied from a given video source, such as a television receiver, a video camera, etc., and the image data is displayed. When the user specifies an area of image to be cut out from the displayed still picture, the image data in the specified area is cut out and recorded as a cutout image. Each cutout image recorded is displayed in the form of an icon. When any of the icons is selected by the user, the corresponding cutout image data is read and pasted in a part to be changed in the original image data. Thus an image can be easily created by user's choice.
