Abstract: Method of measuring the trailing force exerted on a
dredging arm during operation of a floating dredge, in which
said trailing force is derived from an algorithm using process
data being measured during dredging. The following data
can be applied as process data, either individually or in
combination:
   a) the concentration of the mixture brought up by dredging,
in the suction tube;   b) the velocity of the dredged mixture in the suction
tube; and   c) the pressure difference over the suction head.    
     With the use of a Kalman filter the relation between
the actual trailing force exerted on the dredging arm and
the measured pressure difference over the suction head is
estimated continuously, so that the actual trailing force
can be calculated.

Abstract: A broadband amplifier has a microcontroller (20) having tables the entries of
which correspond to desired variable slope and gain characteristics of the
amplifier. The entries in the tables are derived from known temperature
characteristics of a specific amplifier/cable combination; multiple tables are
used to support multiple different configurations. The microcontroller (20)
retrieves values from the tables based on temperature data supplied thereto via
a serial bus; these values are output to digital-to- analog converters which
generate slope and gain control signals to control slope and gain compensation
circuits in a PIN diode attenuator in the amplifier.

Abstract: The method involves setting up a connection between a calling subscriber (A) and a called subscriber, whereby a connecting request of a terminal (TEl) of the calling subscriber (A) is led to an exchange (EX1) of the communications network. The exchange accesses a first control unit (SCP) central to several exchanges, for determining the connection path to the called subscriber (B). The control unit performs a first procedure to determine the connection path, and sends the result back to the exchange. The exchange supervises any loss of the central, first control unit or the connection to it. If such loss is detected, it accesses a second control unit (PROZ2) integrated in the exchange, for the determination of the connection path. The second control unit performs in lieu of the first procedure an alternative second procedure for the determination of the connection path.

Abstract: A bus protocol for a split bus (50, 60) where each device (10,
20, 30) coupled to the bus has an age-based queue (12, 24, 34) of
pending transactions. Queues are updated as transactions are executed.
A central arbiter (40) has a copy of each device's queue (44). A
priority transaction is determined from among all the queues in the
arbiter. A data transaction index (DTI) is broadcast during the data
tenure to all devices indicating the position in the queue of the next
transaction. The index allows out-of-order data transfers without the
provision of a static tag during the address tenure. Queues maintain a
history of pending transactions. In one embodiment, each device
receives a separate data bus grant (DBG), allowing a single provision
of the index to both a source and a sink device.

Abstract: The method involves using a single optical system for gripper alignment, component application, component measurement and gripper positioning for workpiece fitting. The method involves using an optical system (OS) of fixed focal length, and a gripper (GR) mounted between the optical system and the focal plane (FE). The gripper is placed in a working position at the start of the manipulation process with its gripper plane (GE) at a working distance from the focal plane. The unit (E) is moved and aligned until a component in a pick-up plane can be sharply focused and gripped. The unit is moved towards the pick-up plane the gripper applied to the component. The component is gripped and the unit moved away from the pick-up plane. The gripper is moved to an observation position, the component is measured and the gripper moved to its working position.

Abstract: A selected image view generator is disclosed for generating a selected portion of
a larger compressed image. A selected image view from an overall image is generated
with significantly reduced computation and reduced latency (for video processing).
Frame insensitivity permits selected image views to be formed from static images or from
a video stream. Multiple users can simultaneously control a selected view received from
an image source. Remote cameras can be panned electronically, rather than physically.
The overall compressed image may be encoded using a suitable intra-frame macroblock-based
image encoder, provided that each macroblock is encoded independently. Each
macroblock optionally contains a macroblock identifier indicating the position of the
macroblock in a given image. Each transmitted overall image and selected image view
optionally includes a frame header indicating the number of macroblocks in the
transmitted image. A virtually unlimited number of users can be supported by
generating predefined selected image views that have a wider angle (in a panoramic
view) or a larger area (for conventional images), than that requested by the user.
