Abstract: A block decision feedback equalizer uses a Cholesky algorithm to factor a channel impulse response correlation matrix in order to solve for data received over a dispersive communications channel. While the Cholesky algorithm increases the computational complexity of the initial data symbol estimate (the result of a linear block estimation), its use allows the use of a recursive update for computing successive data symbols with little additional computation. Further, the Cholesky algorithm is free of limitations that would limit detection to cases where the channel span or memory is smaller than the probe segment following the data block to be detected. Additional functions such as diversity combining, incorporation of a time-varying channel response model and fractional baud-period sampling are provided in the block detector.

IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 1997-06-12
Abstract: A client enabled to load and run Java applets in a distributed object computing system
retrieves needed Java classes in a location-independent manner from various class servers
in the system. Initially, the client queries a naming service of the distributed object
computing system to determine the class server that contains the base class needed. A
connection through an object request broker is made from the client to the class server. The
client then requests the code for the base class from the class server by using the object
request broker. The class server retrieves the code by either reading a file from its own
local file set, or if the code is not local, queries the naming service for another class server
that has access to the code for the base class. This process of finding a class server and
determining if the code is local may be recursive as classes may be moved or renamed. The
class server then returns this code to the client by way of the object request broker. The
client determines whether the returned code contains any unresolved classes, i.e., classes
that are used but not yet defined or loaded. The client requests code for any unresolved
class in a manner as above for the base class. The client incorporates Java software to run
the applets and ORB binding software to enable the software to make calls to the object
request broker. A network class loader enables the client to load and resolve classes over a
distributed object system.

Abstract: A vehicle headlamp has a reflector coupled to a lamp housing via
a pivotal connection and two aiming mechanisms for tilting the reflector
relative to the lamp housing about horizontal and vertical axes intersecting
at the pivotal connection. One such aiming mechanism comprises an
aiming screw rotatably mounted to the lamp housing, a socket member affixed
to the back of the reflector, and a ball with a tapped hole extending
therethrough to fit over the aiming screw. The socket member
has a hollow extending therethrough for receiving the aiming screw with
clearance. Part of the hollow in the socket member is formed into a
socket for rotatably receiving the ball on the aiming screw. A lockpin
on the ball is engaged in a slot in the socket member thereby locking
the ball against rotation relative to the socket member about the axis of
the hole therein. The bidirectional rotation of the aiming screw is therefore
translated into the linear reciprocation of the ball together with the
socket member, which member is additionally free to undergo angular displacement
relative to the ball for smoother tilting of the reflector.

Abstract: Prelaminate pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) constructions comprise, a first substrate, a coating or release material on a surface of the first substrate, a PSA layer disposed on the coating of release material, and a detackified layer (DL) disposed on a surface of the PSA layer to form a continuous film covering the PSA layer. In first and second embodiments of the construction the DL is activatable to form a tacky layer on top of the PSA layer for lamination with a second substrate. In a third embodiment, the DL includes constituents that when activated migrate into the PSA layer to expose the PSA layer tacky surface for lamination with a second substrate. The prelaminate PSA constructions are completely nonblocking to a minimum 24 hour blocking temperature of about 50° C. at pressure of about 40 kilopascals, thereby allowing such prelaminate PSA construction to be collected, stored, and or transported before being laminated without adhesive interference occurring between continuous layers. The DL in each embodiment is activatable in less than five seconds to provide a tacky layer having a sufficient open tack time to permit lamination at less than about 100° C.

Abstract: An asymmetrical network for coupling customer-premises Internet hosts such as personal
computers to the Intemet. The head end ofa CATV system has a high-bandwidth connection
to the Internet. The down link connecting the personal computers to the Intemet is the cables
provided by the CATV system; the up link is a telephone connection to the head end. A
router is connected to the down link by means of an RF modem, to the up link by means of
an analog modem, and to a LAN which is connected to the Pcs. The router routes IP packets
for the hosts that are received on the CATV cable to the hosts via the LAN; it routes IP
packets from the hosts that are destined for the Internet to the head end via the telephone line.
The asymmetrical network conserves IP addresses and addresses on the CATV cable by
dynamically allocating the IP addresses for an RF modem's hosts and an address on the
CATV cable for the RF modem in response to a request made by the RF modem via the
telephone line. It further saves IP addresses by assigning a non-unique IP address to the
router for use inside the LAN. When the CATV system fails, the asymmetrical network
automatically begins to use the telephone line as both the up link and the down link, and when
the CATV system is restored, the asymmetrical network automatically returns to using the
CATV cable as the down link and the telephone line as the up link. A further feature of the
asymmetrical network is that the head end components and the RF modem have IP addresses,
so that standard TCP/IP protocols can be used to control the asymmetrical network.
