Inventor: KASHIHARA KAZUHISA
IPC: G02B6/132
Filed: 2001-02-08
Abstract: An optical waveguide circuit capable of controlling
polarization crosstalk is provided. An under cladding is formed
on a silicon substrate (11). A core is formed on the under cladding
and has a waveguide structure in which one or more optical input
waveguides (12) arranged side by side are connected at their exit
ends with a first slab guide (13), which is connected at its exit
end with an arrayed waveguide (14) composed of plural channel
waveguides (14a) that are different in length with the difference
preset, and the arrayed waveguide (14) is connected at its exit
end with a second slab waveguide (15), which is connected at its
exit end with a plurality of optical output waveguides (16). The
top of the core is covered with an over cladding to form an optical
waveguide portion (10) composed of the under and over claddings
and the core. A plurality of light beams having different
wavelengths are entered to the core in the multiplexed manner, and
the entered light beams are outputted separately on the basis of
the wavelength. The claddings and the core are formed from silica
glass. The birefringence B in the optical waveguide portion (10)
is set so as to satisfy |B| ≥ 1.2 x 10 -4  to reduce polarization
crosstalk to -20 dB or less.

Abstract: A flow restrictor (40) includes a body (46) which permits the flow
restrictor to be self-retained within a bleed port. Bleed ports are located over various
portions of a gas turbine engine and extend through an engine casing. The flow
restrictor body includes a bore (50) extending between a flow restrictor body first and
second ends (42 and 44). A slot (70) extends between the first and second ends of the
flow restrictor body. The slot further extends from an outer surface (48) of the flow
restrictor body to the bore. During assembly, the slot permits the flow restrictor to
expand and conforms against the bleed port.

Abstract: A resilient clip with a plurality of twisted wings for engaging a first structure.
The twisted wings provide the clip with a low ratio of insertion force to pull-out force,
rendering the clip relatively easy to install yet difficult to pull out. In one embodiment,
the resilient clip includes at least three wing members that cooperate to prevent the
resilient clip from rotating relative to the first structure. In another embodiment, the
resilient clip includes an engagement portion having a plurality of teeth for engaging a
tab formed into a second structure. The teeth of the engagement portion engage the tab,
permitting the resilient clip to be coupled to the second structure. When the resilient clip
is engaged to the first structure, the teeth of the engagement portion cannot disengage the
tab, rendering the resilient clip non-removably coupling the resilient clip to the first and
second structures.

Title: Tone detection for integrated telecommunications processing
Inventor: STRAUSS ADAM B
IPC: H04Q1/46
Filed: 2001-09-05
Abstract: Disclosed is an integrated tone detection processor for discriminating between tone and voice signals and determining the tones. The tone detection processor performs Automatic Gain Control (AGC) to normalize the power of the tone or voice signal. Further, the energy of the tone or voice signals are determined at specific frequencies utilizing a Goertzel Filter process. The tone detection processor determines whether or not a tone is present, and if a tone exists, determines the type of tone. Based upon determining the two maximum energy levels of the Goertzel filtered tone, whether the tone is a single tone, dual tone, silence, or other (e.g. speech) can be discriminated. The tone can then be identified by a user-defined dictionary of tones. Based upon various ON and OFF cadence checks in combination with the use of TONE ON and TONE OFF counters, tones can be declared.

Abstract: The method and system for TV user profile data prediction and modeling allows accurate and
narrowly focused behavioral clustering. A client-side system classifies television consumers
into representative user profiles. The profiles target individual user advertising and program
preference category groups. A contextual behavioral profiling system determines the user's
monitor behavior and content preferences, and the system may be continually updated with
user information. A behavioral model database is queried by various system modules. The
programming, including targeted advertising for television and interactive television is based
on the profile data prediction, modeling and preference determination. The system is enabled
to present a complete program sequence to the viewer based on the preference determination
and stored programming. The latter is referred to as automatic program sequence (virtual
channel) creation and the virtual channel can be presented as a separate channel in an
electronic programming guide (EPG).

Abstract: In an ejector cycle system, high-pressure side
refrigerant is decompressed by an ejector (400) in cooling
operation for cooling a compartment, and is decompressed by a
fixed restrictor (640) in heating operation for heating the
compartment. Therefore, in the heating operation, the
pressure of refrigerant to be sucked into a compressor (100)
can be made lower, and the temperature of refrigerant
discharged from the compressor is increased. Alternatively,
in the cooling operation, a flow direction of refrigerant
flowing through at least one of an exterior heat exchanger
(200) and an interior heat exchanger (300) is identical to
that in the heating operation.
