Inventor: SHURMER JOHN GAVIN L ESTRANGE
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 1997-08-04
Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method of monitoring a communications
network comprising a plurality of node equipment, eg switches, and link
equipment, eg fibre optic links, in which performance parameters of individual
components of the node equipment are used to determine an overall
performance parameter for the node equipment. By comparing like performance
parameters for individual network elements, the performance of different types of
network element can be compared with each other. Parameters which can be
monitored include quality of service, cell discard cell loss and other measures of
network performance. Connection tracing through the plurality of node
equipment and link equipment is also achieved by identifying the communications
connection across a plurality of network elements (221), collecting data signals
containing data of an operational parameter (223, 225) processing the collected
signals (224, 226) and displaying the processed data relating to the identified
network elements (227).

Abstract: Le gène GAI de l'Arabidopsis thaliana a été cloné, avec des séquences de gènes homologues et mutants. L'expression de ces gènes dans les plantes affecte les caractéristiques des plantes, y compris la croissance. L'expression du gène GAI inhibe la croissance des plantes, laquelle inhibition est antagonisée par la gibbérelline (GA). L'expression de gènes mutants gai confère un phénotype nain qui est insensible à la gibérelline. La manipulation de l'expression des gènes GAI et gai dans les plantes donne des plantes de haute taille et des plantes naines. Les plantes naines sont particulièrement utiles pour réduire les pertes de récoltes dues aux verses.

Abstract: A method for adjusting the calibration of a circuit breaker trip mechanism
including a terminal element, a bimetal element connected thereto, and a trip bar.
Laser energy is applied to lanced or pre-bent surfaces of the terminal element to
thermally induce displacement thereof and thereby modify a trip distance between the
bimetal element and the trip bar. Where a laser beam is directed to fall on a middle leg
of a lanced or pre-bent section of the terminal element, the bimetal element moves in
one direction relative to the trip bar. Conversely, where a laser beam is directed to fall
on lateral legs of the lanced or pre-bent section of the terminal element, the bimetal
element moves in an opposite direction relative to the trip bar. Thus, laser energy may
be applied from the same direction, or to the same side of the trip structure, regardless
of whether the trip time is to be increased or decreased.

Abstract: An imaging device comprises a semiconductor substrate including
an array of pixel cells. Each pixel cell comprising an individually
addressable pixel circuit for accumulating charge resulting from
radiation incident on a pixel detector. The pixel circuit and the
pixel detector can either be implemented on a single substrate, or on
two substrates bonded together. The charge storage device can be a
transistor, for example one of a pair of FETs connected as a cascode
amplification stage. An imaging plane can be made up of one imaging
device or a plurality of imaging devices tiled to form a mosaic. The
imaging devices may be configured as a slot for certain applications,
the slit or slot being scanned over the imaging plane. Control
electronics can include addressing logic for addressing individual
pixel circuits for reading accumulated charge from the pixel circuits.
Imaging optimisation can be achieved by determining maximum and minimum
charge values for pixels for display, assigning extreme grey scale or
colour values to the maximum and minimum charge values and allocating
grey scale or colour values to an individual pixel according to a
sliding scale between the extreme values. Scattered radiation can be
detected and discarded by comparing the detected pixel value to a
threshold value related to a minimum detected charge value expected for
directly incident radiation and discarding detected pixel values less
than said threshold value.

Abstract: In the front end of a mobile phone receiver for operation in a network
using DSSS signals, detection of a carrier frequency offset in a received PN-modulated
signal is performed by first correlating the received signal with a
local replica of the PN codes generated within the receiver. The resulting
despread signal is integrated over a fixed period, or dwell, of time, then run
through a square-law envelope detector. The integration is divided into a
plurality of sub-dwells, the values of which are each provided as an input to a
Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to generate a plurality of frequency bins. The
magnitude for each FFT frequency bin is computed and a maximum value is
selected. The maximum value and its corresponding bin number are saved in
the signal processor's memory. The next PN code phase is tested and,
depending on the search scheme, this sequence continues until the decision
algorithm terminates the search. In one embodiment, the magnitude is
calculated for each bin for the collected samples by passing the data through
a filter bank with one filter for each bin in the frequency domain, then
operated on by a decision algorithm which compares the value to a pre-set
threshold. After a match has been declared and the search is terminated,
estimation of the frequency offset is achieved by averaging the bin indices for
the highest magnitude per iteration following a number of iterations of the
search process performed at the PN code phase at which the match was
found.

Abstract: An optical semiconductor device having a plurality of GaN-based semiconductor layers

direction of the wurtzite crystal structure. In devices having GaN-based semiconductor
layers with a zincblende crystal structure, the growth orientation of the strained quantum
well layer is tilted at least 1° from the {111} direction of the zincblende crystal structure.
In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the growth orientation is chosen
