Abstract: A light modulating device, such as a ferroelectric liquid crystal display (FLCD)
comprises an addressable matrix and modulating elements or pixels and associated
circuitry for selectively addressing each element in a series of addressing frames in
order to vary the transmission level of each element relative to the transmissions levels
of the other elements. Such addressing utilises a temporal dither addressing scheme for
addressing at least part of each element within each frame with different combinations
of temporal dither signals applied to separately addressable temporal bits within the
frame to produce different transmission levels. In order to enable a large number of
grey levels to be produced whilst limiting the perceived errors at transitions between
different grey levels, the temporal bits are addressed in a first order in a first frame (or in
a first spatial location) and in a second order, which is different to the first order, in a
second frame (or in a second spatial location). The order in which the temporal bits are
addressed may be varied according to a prescribed sequence, for example alternating
between successive frames, along each line or between corresponding frames on
adjacent lines.

IPC: G01N33/24
Filed: 1999-06-25
Abstract: The length of the electrodes is chosen to involve the greatest volume of the sample possible whilst avoiding short circuits at the ends. At least one level of injection pressure for the second fluid is established, with precise continuous measurements of the variations in the complex electrical impedance of the sample at several frequencies during the displacement of the first fluid. The sample is initially saturated by a first fluid, using a device comprising an elongated holding cell (1), means (12) of exerting a radial pressure on the sample, electrodes (E1, E2) touching the periphery of the sample to apply an electrical current and detect differences in potential appearing between separate points in response to the current. The electrodes are connected to a device (20) for measuring the sample's impedance. A semi- permeable filter (M), which is permeable to the first fluid, is placed in contact with one end of the sample and means (14) of injecting a second fluid under pressure are placed at the other end., and at least one level of injection pressure for the second fluid is established, with precise continuous measurements of the variations in the complex electrical impedance of the sample at several frequencies during the displacement of the first fluid. The impedance measurements are carried out without waiting for a capillary pressure equilibrium to be established at each pressure level. The electrode length is between a quarter and three quarters of the length of the sample, preferably about half its length. The precise continuous impedance measurements are taken during draining and soaking periods.

Abstract: In a mobile communications system (BSS, SGSN, GGSN) having a packet data transmission capability, a dynamic packet-based quality of service (QoS) mechanism is provided within a "transmission tunnel" defined by a more static packet data protocol context (PDP context). More particularly, each data packet is arranged to carry at least one QoS parameter, and the scheduling and the policing of the transmission of the data packets is made in packet by packet basis according to this QoS information in the packets, while, however, within the limits set by the PDP context. This concept enables to have any number of QoS profiles in use simultaneously, e.g. a dedicated QoS profile for each of several Internet user applications run in the mobile station (MS) for a IP address. Therefore, the present invention provides support for various Internet applications and their QoS requirements. Moreover, the QoS can be changed at any time after activation of the PDP context, since only the QoS information in the relevant data packets has to be changed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a thrombocyte preparation (27) that is low in leucocytes and erythrocytes from a thrombocyte concentrate (26) containing leucocytes and a residual proportion of erythrocytes. The thrombocyte concentrate (26) is initially centrifuged. The thrombocyte concentrate is subsequently filtered using a leucocyte depletion filter (21), beginning with the centrifugal supernatant. The proportion of erythocytes in the thrombocyte concentrate (26) to be filtered is monitored (16) before passing through to the leucocyte depletion filter (21). The entire filter process is terminated when a specific proportion of erythrocytes is obtained.

Abstract: In order to measure a scanning light cut-off region, an
output of a light receiving element and a threshold value set by an
MPU are compared by a comparator and a region where the former
is smaller than the latter is measured as the scanning light cut-off
region. During one cycle of optical scanning, this threshold value
is switched in a plurality of stages according to the scanning angle.
By accurately measuring the scanning light cut-off region, the
correct position and size of an indicator such as a finger or pen are
calculated.
