Filed: 1999-12-31
Abstract: A method for controlling a communication between a
sender and a receiver operating in accordance with
TCP, where the sender marks segments being sent by
including a designated single bit in each sent
segment such that an original transmission may be
distinguished from a retransmission, and the
receiver marks the acknowledgment segment for a
received segment by including the single bit
contained in said received segment in the
acknowledgment segment for said received segment,
such that the acknowledgment of an originally sent
segment may be distinguished from the acknowledgment
of the retransmission of said segment.

Abstract: Synthetic quartz glass is produced by feeding a
silica-forming raw material gas, hydrogen gas, oxygen gas
and a fluorine compound gas from a burner to a reaction zone,
flame hydrolyzing the silica-forming raw material gas in the
reaction zone to form fine particles of fluorine-containing
silica, depositing the silica fine particles on a rotatable
substrate in the reaction zone so as to create a fluorine-containing
porous silica matrix, and heat vitrifying the
porous silica matrix in a fluorine compound gas-containing
atmosphere. This process enables the low-cost manufacture
of a synthetic quartz glass having a higher and more uniform
transmittance to light in the vacuum ultraviolet region than
has hitherto been achieved.

IPC: H04B10/278

Abstract: In an optical telecommunications network in accordance with the principles of the present invention, a link connection undergoes an automatic port recognition process, whereby the port binding information for the link is detected, recorded and shared with the network elements connected by the link, before the link is used to transmit bearer traffic. One of a group of optical network elements that communicate through an out of band channel, such as a LAN, is "elected" a network element leader. After election, the leader network element coordinates the port discovery process; requests for port "recognition", responses to requests, and other messages are passed through the network element leader on the out of band channel from one non-leader network element to another. Once the recognition process is set up through the leader network element, an optical test signal is transmitted along the link in question from the recognition requesting network element to all other network element s in the network. The receiving network elements monitor the power level at each of their "inactive" ports and the inactive port at which an increased energy level is detected is determined to be the port attached to the link in question. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Many kinds of contents to be provided in a time schedule
frame matching the time demanded are sequentially provided to a
client PC (4) based on a providing schedule set up to provide
plural kinds of contents in each time schedule frame one by
one, which keeps a client interested. A plurality of user PCs
(2) share the exclusive storage area in a content server (39)
within a content provider (3), and thus contents can be
supplied to many and unspecified persons who have accessed.
When the number of contents to be provided simultaneously at a
desired time on the providing schedule has reached the upper
value, reservations are controlled, thereby preventing the
lowering of content transferring speed and ensuring a speedy
provision.

Abstract: When a battery is in standby mode, a microcomputer switches to sleep mode
if no charging/discharging current is supplied within a predetermined time, and
controls a timer so as to start measuring the standby time of the battery. When a
charging/discharging current is supplied, the microcomputer switches to wake-up
mode, and controls the timer so as to stop measuring the standby time. Then, the
microcomputer reads the measured standby time. Based on the read standby time,
the microcomputer calculates the correction value to correct the currently stored
remaining battery capacity value.

Abstract: An infrared inspection system (32) and an induction heating system (12) used
in conjunction enable the inspection of rubber coated rolls (14), such as rolls
used in the pulp and paper industry. The system effects non-destructive
inspections of rubber coated rolls to detect a debonded condition between the

transient of the roll generated by the even heating process. Using an infrared
camera (32), observed areas that are not transferring heat uniformly with
respect to neighboring areas are suspected debonded areas.

Abstract: To provide a mobile communication system capable of easily performing selection of an optimal transmission mode. Upon receiving a receiving error notice from a mobile station, a transmission mode switching selecting portion of a base station forwards an instruction to switch a transmission mode to a mode slower than a current transmission mode to a modulation/coding portion. After receiving the receiving error notice, if the receiving error notice is not continuously received for a predetermined number of blocks Ns, the transmission mode switching selecting portion forwards an instruction to switch a transmission mode to amode faster than the current transmission mode to the modulation/coding portion. The modulation/coding portion switches the modulation/coding code to any one of a QPSK modulation/coding circuit, a 16QAM modulation/coding circuit and a 64QAMmodulation/coding circuit in response to the switching instruction and performs modulation/coding in the circuit switched to.

Abstract: In a light source (1) of a reflective type LED, a
light-emitting element (2) is mounted on the bottom surface of a
concave reflecting mirror (3c). Accordingly, light emitted
horizontally from the light-emitting surface of the
light-emitting element is also reflected by the reflecting
mirror, so that all components of light emitting from the
light-emitting element are concentrated on a region within a
predetermined extent from an axis perpendicular to the
light-emitting surface so as to irradiate the region. Thus,
the end portion of the reflecting mirror provided in opposition
to the light source need not be made close to the height of
the light-emitting surface of the light-emitting element (2) in
the light source. Hence, it is possible to obtain high external
radiating efficiency even in the case where the reflecting mirror
is provided far from the light-emitting element. Thus, the
degree of freedom for designing the reflecting mirror increases,
so that the reflective type light-emitting diode can be widely
applied.
