Title: Method and apparatus for improving spectral efficiency in wavelength division multiplexed transmission systems
Inventor: BERGANO NEAL S
IPC: H04J14/06
Filed: 1999-02-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for transmitting an optical signal. The method includes the step of generating an optical signal that includes a plurality of optical channels, which are sequentially numbered from 1 to N from lowest to highest wavelength. A state-of-polarization of predetermined odd-numbered channels is oriented to be substantially orthogonal to a state of polarization of predetermined even-numbered channels by directing the predetermined odd-numbered channels and the predetermined even-numbered channels through orthogonally polarizing inputs of a polarization coupler. The odd-numbered channels and the even-numbered channels may be directed through first and second wavelength combiners, respectively, prior to orienting their states of polarization. The orthogonal relationship between the states of polarization of odd and even-numbered channels advantageously limits the four-wave mixing products that can be generated in the optical transmitter and the optical transmission path to which it is typically coupled.

Title: Methods and apparatus for estimating a physiological parameter using transforms
Inventor: YORKEY THOMAS J
IPC: A61B5/145
Filed: 1999-05-26
Abstract: A method for use in a system for determining a physiological parameter is described. The system has a sensor for transmitting electromagnetic energy of first and second wavelengths toward a tissue sample and detecting the electromagnetic energy after scattering of the electromagnetic energy by the tissue sample, thereby generating a first signal corresponding to the first wavelength and a second signal corresponding to the second wavelength. The first and second signals are transformed into the frequency domain, thereby generating third and fourth signals. A ratio signal is generated using the third and fourth signals. For each of a plurality of ratio values an associated sum is generated corresponding to the number of times the ratio signal coincides with the ratio value associated with the sum. Contributions to each sum are weighted in accordance with the third signal. A best ratio value is selected from the plurality of ratio values based on the sums associated therewith.

Inventor: KUTHI ANDRAS
IPC: H01L21/302
Filed: 1999-06-15
Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode used for processing a semiconductor wafer through plasma etching operations. The electrode is disposed within a process chamber that includes a support chuck for holding the semiconductor wafer and a pair of RF power sources. The electrode has a center region, a first surface and a second surface. The first surface is configured to receive processing gases from a source and to flow the processing gases into the center region. The second surface has a plurality of gas feed holes that are continuously coupled to a corresponding plurality of electrode openings. Electrode opening diameters are greater than gas feed hole diameters. The plurality of electrode openings define an electrode surface that is over a wafer surface. The electrode surface assists in defining an electrode plasma sheath surface area which causes an increase in bias voltage onto the wafer surface, thereby increasing the ion bombardment energy over the wafer without increasing the plasma density.
