Abstract: A method of manufacturing a magnetic random
access memory is composed of forming a step-structured
member (3', 5') over a substrate (1),
forming a first magnetic film (6) on the step-structured
member (3', 5'); forming a tunnel
insulating film (7) on the first magnetic film
(6) such that the tunnel insulating film (7) has
a curvature (A), and etching a portion of the
tunnel insulating film (7) to form a tunnel
insulating layer (7'). The step-structured member
(3', 5') has first and second surfaces (3a', 5a')
substantially parallel to a substrate surface of
the substrate. A first distance between the first
surface (3a') and the substrate surface is
different from a second distance between the
second surface (5a') and the substrate surface.
The whole of the tunnel insulating layer (7') is
located over the first surface (3a').

Abstract: A mobile communication apparatus with an antenna array and a mobile
communication method therefore are provided. A mobile communication apparatus
includes a base station with an antenna array and a mobile station, wherein the
mobile station which determines a channel downlink characteristic for each antenna
using a signal transmitted from the base station, determines long-term information
and short-term information based on the correlation of characteristics between
channels for each antenna, using the channel downlink characteristic, converts the
determined long-term information and short-term information to a feedback signal,
and transmits the feedback signal to the base station, and the base station which
receives the feedback signal, extracts a plurality of weights from the long-term
information and short-term information restored from the received feedback signal,
multiplies a multiplexed dedicate physical channel signal by the respective weights,
adds respective pilot channel signals to the products, and transmits the results of the
additions through the antenna array to the mobile station. Accordingly, even with
the increasing number of antennas for an antenna array, performance degradation
due to increasing movement rate of a mobile station can be reduced with improved
reception signal-to-noise ratio required at the mobile station. The mobile
communication apparatus and method allow more users to use the same bandwidth
through efficient feedback bandwidth utilization and maximize diversity and
beamforming effects according to channel characteristics. When the long-term
information is determined at the base station, not at the mobile station, the mobile
station can have a smaller size with reduced power consumption.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil comportant un système de commande actif conçu pour un réseau de flûtes sismiques remorquées permettant d'effectuer n'importe quelle commande de position relative d'un nombre quelconque de flûtes sismiques remorquées. Les positions desdites flûtes sont commandées horizontalement et verticalement au moyen d'unités de commande actives se trouvant au sein du réseau de flûtes. La position de chaque élément de flûte déterminée par trois composantes (x, y, z), par rapport au vaisseau et par rapport aux autres éléments de flûtes est commandée, suivie et mémorisée au cours d'un processus d'acquisition de données sismiques. Les éléments de commande actifs peuvent être situés au niveau du mécanisme de déviation, de la tête de la flûte, le long de la flûte et au niveau de la queue de la flûte. L'appareil et le procédé selon la présente invention permettent de manoeuvrer un réseau de flûtes sismiques pendant que le navire remorqueur conserve son cap, ou bien, le navire effectue lui-même des manoeuvres afin de contribuer au repositionnement dudit réseau. Le système permet de conserver la position et la géométrie spécifiques du réseau en présence de facteurs environnementaux variables. La présente invention facilite l'acquisition de données sismiques quadridimensionnelles par détection et mise en mémoire de la position du réseau et de chaque élément du réseau en fonction du temps. Des configurations auxiliaires permettant le retrait d'un réseau ou d'une flûte d'un réseau à des fins de maintenance, manipulation ou récupération sont également possibles.
