Date Nov. 28, 1991.A high frequency transmitter comprises a large number of narrowband channels spaced over a broad bandwidth transmission. In one arrangement input data to be transmitted is demultiplexed (1101) so that sections of data are transmitted in groups of channels at 50 baud (say), each 50 baud channel produces a number of diversity channels modulated using difference phase shift key (DPSK) (103) and then added (105) for transmission. In the receiver, coherent summation (803) of close-bunched channels can be used and semi-coherent channel addition (805) can be used across the complete bandwidth. The received signal is convened to digital form then processed by an FFT circuit to produce frequency bins corresponding to the transmitted diversity channel frequencies. DPSK demodulation is carried out and running averages are carried out in each channel to determine the proportion of times that the phase difference falls within allowed limits (907). A discrimination level (908) determines whether individual channels should be excised (914) because of noise corruption. The remaining channels in groups are then added together to determine each data bit received, in semi-coherent addition (905), the measured phase vectors are added vectorially and the vector sum is used to determine the data bit. In a second arrangement the channels of any one group are arranged in bunches of about 10 spread over a bandwidth of about 2 kHz (the experimentally determined coherence bandwidth) with the bunches spread over the whole transmission bandwidth. The bunch channels are added coherently and the resultants are added semi-coherently as before to determine the group data. The group data is then multiplexed to reproduce the high data rate input data. The arrangement allows high data rates to be transmitted with each of the diversity channels carrying only 50 baud.

Abstract: A method is provided for producing a thin film product, comprising a first step in which an underlying substrate of a first material is provided. The underlying substrate includes a plurality of unmodified sites. The underlying substrate is then chemically modified wherein a plurality of organic functional groups are attached to a plurality of the unmodified sites. The arrangement and type of the functional group used can be selected for the purpose of controlling particular properties of the second material deposited. A thin film layer of at least one second material is then deposited onto the chemically modified underlying substrate. This can be accomplished by connecting the thin film to the underlying substrate by binding the thin film to the functional groups.

Abstract: La présente invention a permis d'observer l'inhibition, par l'interleukine-8 (IL-8), de la libération induite par HRF (facteur de libération d'histamines) des histamines contenues dans des basophiles chez 17 donneurs d'une population de 20 donneurs, selon des concentrations de niveaux aussi bas que 10-9 à 10-8 M. On a observé une inhibition de la libération d'histamines par IL-8 notablement plus élevée chez les sujets normaux que chez les patients atteints d'allergies (59 U 8 % contre 31 U 7 %, p<0,04). L'IL-8 n'a eu une action inhibitrice que sur la libération d'histamines induite par cytokine et n'a pas influé sur la libération d'histamines par anti-IgE par FMLP et par C5a. Un procédé permettant d'inhiber la libération d'agents vecteurs d'allergies grâce à l'interleukine 8 est revendiqué.

Abstract: A method for reproducing signals in an optically recording medium of the type in which recording pits are erased or embossed by the temperature rise of the medium caused through projecting a light beam for reading out signals, or of the type in which the reflection factors of recording pits are changed by the temperature rise of the medium caused through projecting a light beam. The change of the substantial size of a reproducing region because of the change of the linear velocity of the medium is prevented. For this prevention, for example, a sensing means (17) for sensing the position of the reproducing region in a radial direction of the magneto-optical disc (11) during the rotation of the disc (11) at a constant speed is provided. By controlling the laser power and the external magnetic field according to the output of the sensing means (17), the substantial size of the reproducing region is so controlled as to be constant always independently of the linear velocity in each reproducing position.

Abstract: A frequency converter circuit which includes a first frequency conversion unit (11) which mixes a received signal and a first local oscillation signal to produce a first intermediate frequency signal and a second frequency conversion unit (12) which mixes the first intermediate frequency signal and a second local oscillation signal to produce a second intermediate frequency signal. Here, the first frequency deviation included in the first local oscillation signal and the second frequency deviation included in the second local oscillation signal are combined and applied to the reference oscillation unit. The oscillation frequency of the reference oscillation unit is subjected to feedback control (15) so that the combined frequency deviation becomes zero. This feedback is formed so that a first and second local oscillation signals are produced based on reference signals obtained by dividing a reference signal having the oscillation frequency by a first dividing ratio and a second dividing ratio.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for applying a conditioning agent to a fibrous material to impart a desirable property to the material, such as an enhanced hydrophilicity. The method comprises the steps of depositing wetting agent in a foamed condition on the fibrous material and establishing a pressure differential across the fibrous material to draw the foam of wetting agent therein. By this method a non-uniform dispersion of the wetting agent throughout the fibrous network is obtained, the concentration of wetting agent being highest on the surface of the fibrous material on which the foam is delivered. As a result, the treated fibrous material has a preferential fluid absorption surface. The invention also provides a fluid-absorbent board of peat moss material with main surfaces having different fluid absorption rates.
