Abstract: A loss-gain circuit for use in compensating variations in output frequency between different oscillators manufactured, for example, in a single batch of quartz oscillators. The circuit comprises an oscillator (1) for outputting a reference signal; a frequency divider (2) for frequency dividing the reference signal; loss gain means (4) for controlling within a first set range (A) the frequency divider (2) so as to correct deviation of the oscillator output from a desired standard; shift means (5) for changing the first set range (A) to a second set range (e.g. B) if the said deviation does not lie within the first set range (A).

Abstract: A fiber optic radiation transmission system is provided in which an optical fiber and a radiation source are connected to establish optical communication therebetween. Additionally, a connecting system is provided for connecting an optical fiber and a radiation source such that optical communication is established therebetween. The systems include a connector which carries the optical fiber therein. The connector is extendable within the system toward the radiation source to bring the optical fiber into optical communication with the radiation source. More particularly, the systems are configured in such a way that when the connector is extended sufficiently within the system, it seats the optical fiber relative to the radiation source under bias, thereby establishing a reliable optical connection. Once the optical connection is thus established, the connector engages a connection port associated with the radiation source to secure the system in a fully connected configuration appropriate for use. Thus, in a method of using such a system, the user simply extends the connector until the connector engages the connection port. The present invention thus provides efficient and reliable systems in which optical communication is established between an optical fiber and a radiation source.

Abstract: A system is provided for remotely monitoring the
current location and physical condition/parameters of a
specific person on a real time basis. The monitored
physical parameters include the blood glucose level. In
accordance with the invention, the detection of a blood
glucose level can be effected in an un-invasive manner,
which is quite different from the prior art method which
would be painful. A terminal unit attached onto the
person's body is, via a radio network, in communication
with a central unit located at a medical institute of the
area. The detection of vital signs including a blood
glucose level is continuously and intermittently effected
by the terminal unit. Once an emergency situation arises,
an alarm signal will automatically be transmitted to the
central unit regardless of the action and intention of the
person.

Abstract: An RDS or RDBS radio broadcast receiver, utilizing a microcontroller and a serial communication bus, receives a list of alternative frequencies to allow the receiver to switch to an alternative frequency when the quality of the main radio broadcast signal deteriorates. Therefore the quality of the alternative frequency transmissions has to be updated from time to time. To avoid time delays caused by the relatively slow serial communication bus, the tuning section comprises further controlling means for performing the alternative frequency updates.
