Abstract: In a radiotelephone base station receiver having components which cause degradation of a received radio signal, an apparatus for producing a correctly compensated radio signal strength information (RSSI) signal from the degraded received radio signal has an analog radio frequency unit and a digital control unit. The analog radio frequency unit receives the degraded received radio signal and generates a degraded RSSI signal, and includes an analog circuit and addressable memory. The addressable memory has compensated RSSI signal values stored at addresses, and the compensated RSSI signal values correspond to possible degraded RSSI signal values. The addresses are generated from the degraded RSSI signal, which may serve directly as the addresses. The digital control unit is coupled to the analog radio frequency unit, and receives the degraded RSSI signal and generates compensated RSSI signal values based on those in the addressable memory.

Abstract: An analytical rotor (10) for separating cellular components from a biological sample includes a plurality of internal chambers and passages for combining the cell-free sample with one or more reagents and distributing the sample to a plurality of individual test wells (92). The chambers and passages necessary for separating cellular components from a sample such as whole blood include a measuring chamber (40), an overflow chamber (44), a separation chamber (60), and a reagent chamber (80). The measuring chamber (40) and overflow chamber (44) have capillary dimensions so that an initial volume of whole blood partitions therebetween, with the measuring chamber filling first to provide a preselected volume. The separation chamber (60) is located radially outward from both the measuring chamber (40) and the reagent chamber (80) so that spinning of the rotor causes both the reagent and the measured blood volume to flow outward into the separation chamber (60). A collection chamber (90) is formed to receive the plasma from the separation chamber (60). Further spinning of the rotor causes the plasma to flow radially outward into a plurality of test wells (92) formed around the periphery of the collection chamber (90). Testing of the separated plasma volumes may be performed without removing the plasma from the rotor.

Abstract: A horizontal synchronizing signal is applied as a reference signal and a voltage-controlled oscillator outputs a frequency signal on the basis of the frequency of the horizontal synchronizing signal. The period of the frequency signal is divided in accordance with a frequency-dividing value set in advance, the difference in frequency between the frequency-divided frequency signal and the horizontal synchronizing signal and the phase difference between them are obtained, and control is performed in such a manner that the frequency of the signal outputted by the voltage-controlled oscillator is decided in dependence upon the frequency difference. In an interval in which a vertical synchronizing signal turns off and the frequency of the horizontal synchronizing signal fluctuates, the input to the voltage-controlled oscillator is held fixed to prevent a fluctuation in the outputted display clock.

Abstract: Proposed is a frame-supported pellicle used for dustproof protection of a photomask in the photolithographic patterning work for the manufacture of electronic fine devices such as LSIs, VLSIs and the like by mounting thereon. The inventive frame-supported pellicle is characterized in that the pellicle frame made from an anodization-treated aluminum-based alloy, to which a pellicle membrane is adhesively bonded on one of the end surfaces, is coated on the whole surface with a coating layer of an organic polymer such as an amorphous fluorine-containing polymer. The use of this inventive frame-supported pellicle can solve the heretofore unavoidable problem of dust particle deposition on the photomask even under dustproof protection with a pellicle, for which no remedial means has been proposed heretofore due to the unclear mechanism of such dust particle occurrence, by virtue of the smoothing effect of the anodized aluminum surface which otherwise is microscopically very rugged to be responsible for the formation of dust particles by rubbing with the surface of the holder case during transportation.

Abstract: A confocal scanning microscope comprises a sample supporting member on which a sample is supported, and a light source which produces a light beam. A light projecting device forms an image of the light beam as a small light spot on the sample. A light receiving device condenses the light beam, which has been radiated out of the sample, and forms an image of the condensed light beam as a point image. A photodetector detects the point image. A movable member supports the light projecting device and the light receiving device. A main scanning device reciprocally moves the movable member such that the light spot scans the sample in main scanning directions. A sub-scanning device moves the sample supporting member with respect to the movable member in sub-scanning directions, which are normal to the main scanning directions, and at a speed lower than the speed at which the light spot scans the sample in the main scanning directions, whereby the sample is scanned with the light spot in the sub-scanning directions.

Abstract: The sprinkler has a vertical mounting with a water flow driven turbine (8) which rotates faster than a direct driven rotor using a gearing (9) to step up the rotational speed. A water flow divider (7) with shaped contour spreads the water flow while the fast rotating head provides an added sprinkling effect.

Abstract: A transmission power control method for controlling transmission power of radio communications in a CDMA system. The transmission power of a first transmitted signal transmitted from a first station is determined by a transmission power control signal contained in a second transmitted signal sent from a second station. The first station receives the second transmitted signal in the form of convolutional codes, and decodes it by using a first Viterbi decoder (15) and a second Viterbi decoder (16). The first Viterbi decoder (15) includes a path memory with the path history length of a first predetermined length, and the second Viterbi decoder (16) includes a path memory with the path history length of a second predetermined length which is shorter than the first predetermined length. The transmission power control signal contained in the second transmitted signal is extracted from the output of the second Viterbi decoder, whereas the other information data is obtained from the output of the first Viterbi decoder. The first station controls the transmission power of the first transmitted signal on the basis of the extracted transmission power control signal. This makes it possible to achieve highly accurate, fast responsive transmission power control.

Abstract: A component bearing an image is produced by printing the image (12) on a layer (11) of a high temperature glue which has been applied to a layer of a transparent medium (10). The image is printed on the glue layer using carbon or a carbon-containing compound that does not flow when applied to the glue surface. The component consisting of transparent medium, high temperature glue and image is then bonded to a substrate (13) using a thermal bonding process to produce a laminate of the transparent medium and the substrate. The image is not distorted by the thermal bonding process, but remains clearly visible through the transparent medium. Typically the transparent medium will be a polyester film or a sheet of glass beads dispersed in glue. One or more additional layers (27) may be bonded to the substrate (13) to increase the stiffness of the product laminate.
