Abstract: A recording and/or reproducing apparatus for discs including a housing unit (2) housing a large number of discs, a recording and/or reproducing unit (3) on which one of the discs held within a large number of disc holders provided in the housing unit is selectively loaded and a transporting mechanism (42) for transporting the disc held within a pre-set one of the holders of the housing unit to the recording and/or reproducing unit. In the course of transporting the disc, the disc transporting mechanism detects whether or not the disc is held in the holder. The housing unit include a plurality of the holders for radially holding the discs with the disc surfaces being erected upright. The disc held in the holder is transported by the transporting mechanism in the upstanding position as far as the disc reproducing unit and there loaded. The recording and/or reproducing apparatus for disc-shaped recording media has a group designating unit for designating the information of a desired one of the recording media housed within the housing unit and the air information recorded on such desired disc-shaped recording medium and grouping the designated information for classing the large number of the recording media into several groups.

Abstract: A power supply is provided for a presentation system having a light source which allows for overdriving of the light source, but protects against transient surges on the input line when overdriving the light source. The power supply includes an input line connected to the external ac source, two output lines, and a relay selectively connecting the input line to one of the two output lines. The relay is indirectly controlled by a voltage sense circuit which converts the ac source voltage to a dc output voltage. The dc output voltage is examined to determine whether the input line is in a low- or high-voltage state, the high-voltage state corresponding to a surge on the line. The output lines are coupled to the load line (leading to the light source) in such a manner that the ac voltage source, when applied to the first output line, will produce a lower voltage at the lamp than that produced when the ac voltage source is applied to the second output line, thus overdriving the lamp when the relay connects the input line to the second output line. As long as the input line is not surging, i.e., while it is in the low-voltage state, the relay connects the input line to the second output line to allow for overdriving. When a surge is detected, the relay switches the input line to the first output line. The voltage sense circuit includes a hysteresis component which automatically adjusts the predetermined threshold to prevent constant switching of the voltage sense circuit output when there are only minor deviations in the voltage near the threshold.

Title: Beamformer using coefficient restrained adaptive filters for detecting interference signals
Inventor: HOSHUYAMA OSAMU
IPC: H03H21/00
Filed: 1995-09-01
Abstract: In an adaptive array beamformer, a spatial beamforming filter is connected to a sensor array for respectively filtering and summing array signals to produce a first filter output containing a target signal that arrives in a specified direction. First adaptive filters provide transversal-filtering the first filter output to produce a second filter output not containing the target signal, using a first error signal by restraining their tap weight coefficients. The array signals are further coupled to subtractors. Each subtractor detects a difference between the second filter output of the corresponding first adaptive filter and the corresponding sensor signal to derive the first error signal. Second adaptive filters provide transversal-filtering the first error signals of the subtractors to produce third filter outputs, using a second error signal, by restraining their tap weight coefficients. The third filter outputs are summed and subtracted from the first filter output to produce an output of the beamformer, which is supplied as the second error signal to the second adaptive filters. <MATH>

Abstract: In a fast-packet network, incoming HDLC data are supplied by a receiving line interface device to a packet management device comprising a receiving state machine that shifts the data through a DLCI extractor. The extracted DLCI is used as an address indicating a location of a translation RAM that stores the destination DLCI and control data corresponding to the incoming HDLC data. The destination DLCI replaces the current DLCI field of the incoming data. A frame control state machine requests a frame buffer of a frame buffer RAM to be allocated to the incoming HDLC packet and writes the data to the allocated buffer. Simultaneously, a packet availability message is sent to the destination packet management device indicated by the control data in the translation RAM. A transmitting circuit of the destination packet management device has a transmitting state machine that rewrites the HDLC data from the frame buffer RAM to a FIFO register. When the FIFO register is full or entire data frame is in the FIFO register, the data are transferred to an HDLC transmitter coupled to a transmitting line interface device.

Abstract: A bone prosthesis has a growth enhancement coating recessed in and protected by its surface topography. The topographic features define gaps under a few millimeters which are readily spanned by new bone growth, while the features protect the coating from abrasion or physical damage. The topographic features substantially surround the coated regions, and prevent migration of flakes spalled during implantation or microparticles shed by the coating as it is resorbed or incorporated in new bone over time. In a preferred embodiment, edge features cast in the surface of a metal prosthesis include dovetail, undercut or skewed faces which firmly interlock with newly-growing bone to form a strong and shear-free. substantially rigid attachment. The prosthesis may be cast in a mold having a complex surface interlock texture, and these molds may be mass produced by an iterative three-dimensional printing technique to build each mold up in layers in the form of a suitable casting negative. The prosthesis is then cast of molten metal in the mold, and the mold material is broken away and cleaned off, e.g., by an etch. A growth enhancer such as hydroxyapatite (HA) is plasma-sprayed to selectively deposit on and completely cover the floors of the recesses formed in the casting. Preferably, the upper surfaces about the recesses are polished, and the recess walls are overhung so they are masked from the coating process. further than causing the HA coating to adhere only in the protected floor regions. The HA floors are at the bottom of pits or macropores, at a depth of under three millimeters, and preferably one-half to two millimeters, so that new bone growth spans the gaps and penetrates into the prosthesis over an extended surface textured region.
