Abstract: In an optical disc drive unit tracking control circuitry is provided. The unit includes an optical head (12, 16), moveable controllably across a main face of a rotatable optical disc (10) when the unit is in use, for providing an optical beam to be incident at a point on the said main face, and also includes an actuator device (64), moveable with the said optical head (12,16), having a beam-deflecting member (80) that is controllably displaceable relative to the said optical head, from a working disposition permitting reading and writing operations using the optical beam, to cause the point of incidence of the optical beam on the said main face to be moved towards a desired point thereon. 
     The circuitry comprises seek means (22) for providing a beam-deflecting velocity signal (V t ) used to control the velocity at which the beam-deflecting member (80) is displaced, during a seek operation of the unit, to cause the point of incidence of the said optical beam to he brought to the said desired point. The circuitry also has head servo means (20) for controlling movement of the said optical head (12,16) in such a way as to tend to reduce the magnitude of the displacement of the said beam-deflecting member (80), from its said working disposition, that is needed to maintain the said point of incidence at the said desired point. Head velocity control means (25,26,28; (156;25) are included in the circuitry for providing a head velocity signal (V e ;dv t /dt), derived from the said beam-deflecting velocity signal (V t ) and for employing that head velocity signal during the said seek operation to influence such movement of the said optical head (12,16) so that the head moves with a velocity greater than would be imposed on it by normal operation of the head servo means (20).

Abstract: An inductive proximity switch contains an oscillator that generates an alternating magnetic field and which, when a trigger penetrates the alternating field, changes its oscillating state. An evaluation circuit uses the change in state to generate a switching signal to control a load switch. To achieve a proximity switch response distance that is as large as possible regardless of the trigger material and the ambient temperature, two sensing coils are located in the alternating field to detect the difference between voltages induced in them. The sensing coils are designed so that the alternating voltage differential becomes zero at a desired response distance. When the alternating voltage differential is zero at an input of oscillator amplifier, the oscillator abruptly changes its oscillating state. The change in oscillation state is detected by the evaluation circuit and converted into a binary switching signal for the load switch.

Abstract: A wireless-access communications system, such as a CDMA cellular radio-telephone system, comprises a packet-switched communications network (202, 207, 201) that interconnects cells (base stations; 202) with each other and with the public telephone network (100). Traffic of individual calls is packetized, and packet-bearing frames of a plurality of calls are then statistically multiplexed and frame-relayed through the network to yield the high capacity, efficiency, and speed of traffic transport and handoff required for a CDMA cellular system. At each call processing unit, individual calls are handled by individual service circuits which perform speech-processing functions such as coding and decoding, tone insertion, and echo cancellation, and packet-to-circuit-switched-PCM traffic conversion. Processors adapt call processing unit timing to compensate for asynchrony between cells and call processing units and variations in call path transmission delays. Cell-to-cell communications, fixed call path addressing, and packetized control message transfers ensure that the same service circuit handles a call through even multiple soft handoffs and efficiently communicates simultaneously with all cells involved in the handoff without involvement of system control entities and negative effect on system call-handling capacity. Both coded (packet-switched) and uncoded (circuit-switched) radio-telephone traffic are accommodated side-by-side. Wherever possible, existing and proven technology and component units are used to achieve low cost and high reliability.

Abstract: A document copier (1), having a copier operation that includes image editing for inputting data of a production run, which data both specifies special features and defines areas (Pi and P 2 ) of an original document (56) for treatment by the special features. An interrupt mode interrupts the image editing and the image forming so that a job of higher priority can be processed. The special features specifying data and the area defining data of a production run are stored only for areas which are completely defined at the time of interrupt of the copier operation. The higher priority job is limited to a single image frame such that duplex copies and multi-color copies which require more than one image frame to produce are excluded. A job image buffer (9) capable of holding a predetermined amount of data is provided. The interrupt operation is disabled when there is insufficient space in the job image buffer for storing the data for the higher priority job. Data for the higher priority job is erased from the job image buffer after only one copy is produced, whereby multiple copies of said higher priority job cannot be produced.

Abstract: This invention relates to reading and analyzing the contents of sealed mail. The invention has utility in the sorting of sealed mail and in the matching of mail envelopes and its contents. The contents of sealed mail are read by generating in a light source 20 light of frequency in the near infra-red directed onto the sealed envelope 19 and creating an image of the printed matter on the contents by directing the light to an optical detector 22. The image thus received is analyzed and a determination can be made whether contents are of high value (and hence may need diversion by the diverter 31, 33) or whether the addresses on the envelope match the addresses of the contents. If the envelopes are not addressed, the address can be printed on the envelope after analysis of the address block of the contents.
