Inventor: GREISS ISRAEL
IPC: H04L27/14
Filed: 1991-08-01
Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatus for synchronous detection of a Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) signal. The demodulation of the FSK signal is performed in the "complex plane" after multiplying the input samples by an unlocked complex carrier in a complex down converter. Two decision bits are generated per real bit. Once bit should be the real decision; the other bit is a "transition" bit between two Bauds. To generate this situation, the last three decisions are considered. If a transition from 0 to 1, or vice-versa, occurs between the first and third bit, then the middle (second) bit should have equal probability to be 0 or 1. If it is 1, timing correction, by moving the sampling window, is done towards the 0 bit. If it is a 0, the sampling window is moved toward the 1 bit. The timing decision is efficiently implemented by taking the three bits as an index to an 8-entry look-up table that generates ADVANCE, DELAY or NO OP directions.

Abstract: A compensation circuit for a resistance bridge corrects errors in the response of signal outputs thereof and has a voltage controlled current source across a power input and a ground reference providing a bridge excitation output current proportional to a fixed circuit reference voltage. A buffer amplifier at the power input generates a buffer output voltage proportional thereto. An instrumentation amplifier at the signal outputs generates an initial output proportional to the response therefrom. A programmable gain amplifier at the initial output provides a compensated output independent of the bridge pressure response. A gain correction part of a compensation network compensates for variations in the bridge response and an offset correction part generates an initial offset current in response to the buffer output voltage. An offset correction amplifier generates a correction signal. The buffer output voltage and the initial offset current vary with temperature providing a temperature dependent part of the correction signal. A reference input of the instrumentation amplifier uses the correction signal and modifies the initial output to counteract fixed and temperature dependent parts of offset errors in the signal outputs response. The offset correction part adjusts the fixed part independently of the temperature dependent part. A single resistor adjusts positive or negative values of the fixed part. Another resistor adjusts positive or negative slope of the temperature dependent part. A method compensates the offset errors with steps of energizing the bridge and measuring the output and resistance at two temperatures and at two pressures. The measurements are used to find correction resistances for variations in bridge offset, temperature and pressure response.

Abstract: In a laser processing apparatus according to the present invention, an aberration compensating device (9) is provided between a beam section forming device (2) and a half mirror (1e) for making a focal point of visible light which is reference light and a focal position of infrared light which is laser beam coincided with each other. In the aberration correcting device, an aberration correcting convex lens (9a) having long focal length and a space portion (9b) are provided in a rotatable lens holder (9c). When observing an object to be processed (6), the lens holder is rotated to bring the space portion into an optical path, and is rotated to bring a convex lens for correction into the optical path when emitting laser beam. The laser beam is converged until incidence on the objective lens by the convex lens for correction to correct the aberration. As the aberration compensating device, a combination of a concave lens (9f) and a convex lens (9e) having different refractive indexes and the same focal length may be employed. Otherwise, a concave lens (10) may be provided to make a beam waist of the laser beam coincide with the portion to be processed.

Abstract: A light beam scanning system for scanning an object with a light beam emitted from a light source to record or read images includes a lattice plate disposed in a position equivalent to a scanning plane of the light beam and extending in a primary scanning direction. The lattice plate includes a plurality of light transmitting sections each having a width substantially corresponding to a diameter of the light beam in an in-focus position. Photodiodes or the like are provided to detect quantity of the light beam having passed through the light transmitting sections of the lattice plate. Since the detected quantity of the light beam is correlated with focus displacement of the light beam, amounts of focus displacement of the light beam at different points in the primary scanning direction are determined from the detected quantity of the light beam. When recording an image, the quantity of the light beam is adjusted based on the determined amounts of focus displacement, thereby to equalize print line widths at different points in the primary scanning direction.
