Patent CA-2709216-C (CA)
Inventor: WINDT DAVID L
IPC: A61B6/00
Filed: 2009-01-30
Granted: 2013-07-02
Abstract: An X-ray imaging device and alignment/scanning system include at least one multilayer X-ray mirror mounted on a multi-axis adjustable mirror mount pivotable about a scanning axis. A mirror scanner is coupled with the mirror mount and synchronized with the X-ray source so that the mirror scanner moves the mirror mount about the scanning axis. The invention may include a plurality of mirrors, optionally in a stack, and preferably including first and second mirrors respectively adapted to reflect X-rays of first and second energies. A movable attenuation plate having a window selectively allows X-rays to be transmitted by one of the mirrors and blocks X-rays from the other mirror(s). Sets of the mirrors may be configured in blocks or interspersed. The mirror scanner may be operable at variable speeds to enable selective control of the scanning speed of the mirror.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a laser apparatus (200) comprising an external cavity laser (ECL) in which the optical signal is modulated by an electrical modulation signal with the purpose of modulating in frequency the laser output signal.  The modulation in frequency produces in turn a modulation of intensity (power) of the laser output signal, also denoted amplitude modulation (AM). A method is described of control of the AM amplitude of a signal emitted by an ECL that comprises a gain medium (205), a phase element (206) with variable transmissivity induced by the modulation and a spectrally selective optical fil-ter (209) and that selects and keeps the AM amplitude below a certain desired value or minimizes such value. A control method and a laser apparatus (200) are also described in which the reduction of the AM component of the output power is achieved by acting on the gain of the gain medium of the ECL in such way that the variation of transmissivity caused by the modulation applied to a phase element (206) is at least partially compensated by a corresponding variation of the gain current of the gain medi-um so as to reduce or to minimize the variation of the loop gain of the laser cavity induced by the modulation.

Title: Time aligned group audio reproduction in narrowband and broadband networks
Inventor: BEKIARES TYRONE D
IPC: H04H20/67
Filed: 2009-05-05
Granted: 2014-02-11
Abstract: A method for synchronizing media reproduction across heterogeneous networks is presented. The networks in-clude end-to-end IP broadband and narrowband simulcast networks that contain broadband and narrowband devices associated with a common communications group. A controller in the networks determines delay times for reproduction of a media stream across devices in the networks and establishes the longest delay time. The longest delay time is used to calculate appropriate transmission and reproduction timestamps to permit the devices to reproduce the provided media stream in synchronization. Narrow-band base stations repeat the media stream at the time specified by a transmission timestamp, and broadband end devices repro-duce the media stream at the time specified by a reproduction timestamp. By synchronizing the presentation time, the devices present the media at substantially the same time and are granted fair rights to communicate with one another.
