Patent EP-0352507-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01D5/243
Filed: 1989-07-04
Abstract: An impedance which can be influenced by a physical measurement quantity, for example a sensing capacitor for humidity measurement, is part of a freely oscillating harmonic HF oscillator, the resonant frequency and damping of which are to be determined. For this purpose, constant-frequency HF excitation pulses are applied to the oscillator. The resonant frequency of the oscillator is detected by counting the free oscillations between two excitation pulses. The damping is detected by sampling the envelope curve of the free oscillations, which are rectified, in particular, by a ring mixer, at at least two defined times between two excitation pulses. <IMAGE>

Title: Process and device to determine the geometry of an object
Inventor: BISWAS AMIT KUMAR DR
IPC: B21J9/20
Filed: 1989-10-14
Abstract: A process for determining the geometry of an object (10) in a forging press is specified, it being the case that for the purpose of being processed the object in the forging press is displaced for a processing pass and rotated about the longitudinal axis in a predetermined fashion. In this process, the surface of the object (10) is continuously scanned over the circumference in a manner known per se in planes perpendicular to the direction of displacement of the object. Thereafter, the scanned data are transmitted to a computer programmed in advance, and subsequently converted in the computer with the aid of a program based on the volume constancy conditions in such a way that the actual geometry of the object (10) is acquired. The acquired actual geometry is processed in the computer so as to introduce a further transformation step with predetermined programmed forging parameters. A device for carrying out the process consists of a carrier, which is constructed as a ring (13), is arranged in the vicinity of the processing region of the object (10), and is attached to a sensor (15), rotating about the object at a defined rate. Installed on the inner surface (14) of the ring (13) at two or more oppositely located points are beam transmitters (11) and beam receivers (12) arranged adjacently in each case.

Title: Methods and apparatus for flexibly allocating bandwidth for a point-to-point, serial, bidirectional communicationn path
IPC: H04J3/16
Filed: 1990-01-22
Abstract: Bandwidth allocation apparatus (510) which 
provides for the allocation of bandwidth for point-to-point, 
serial, bidirectional communication paths in a digital 
switching system. Bandwidth allocation is performed at 
both ends of a path (e.g. T1 line, IML, etc.) and may take 
place in either direction. The Bandwidth Allocation 
Facility (BAF) at each end of a given path allocates 
bandwidth in integer multiples of maximum switching system 
granularity. The BAF also supports the implementation of 
user requests for any one of a plurality of allocation and 
boundry rules. To minimize the probability of contention 
and out-of-band signalling between the BAF pair associated 
with a given path, a front-to-back search mechanism is 
assigned for one BAF of the pair, while the other BAF 
utilizes a back-to-front search mechanism. In this way 
contention occurs only when a path's capacity nears 
exhaustion while uneven loading (one side of the path 
versus the other) is accommodated. The apparatus also 
supports rapid deallocation of bandwidth (573), and 
status reporting (580-582).

which indicate timing performance. The user is provided with the opportunity to alter the 
weights assigned to modules, and thereby determine the effect which different weights have 
on the overall performance of the program.

value is not less than the lower limit value, the sending processor 
determine that it can perform message passing. If the count value is 
treater than the upper limit value, the processor selects as many 
processors as the upper limit number from the candidate destination 
processors according to a rule based on priority, and then initiates the 
message passing to the processor thus selected.
