Patent EP-1372112-A3 (EP)
Inventor: HOUSAND BRIEN J
IPC: G01R31/00
Filed: 1997-04-01
Abstract: In a FLIR/laser based targeting and imaging system, the ability to recognize, detect, locate, and/or track targets in an area of interest is significantly improved by reducing the fixed and dynamic alignment errors between the IR LOS and the laser LOS. Fixed alignment errors are reduced with an improved internal boresight module and corresponding boresight method. Dynamic alignment errors are reduced with an opto-electric subsystem that employs a single pitch bearing and a common pitch/yaw afocal for both the laser energy and the IR energy. A segmented window in the system housing includes a circular EMI grid pattern which significantly reduces the amount of off-axis EMI entering the optical pathways, and improved signal processing techniques are employed to enhance the quality of the IR image after the image has been digitized.

Abstract: A fractal-shaped element may be used to form an antenna (510A, 510B, 510B', 510C), an element in an antenna system, a ground counterpoise in an antenna system, a resonating system, or a combination of any or all of these elements. Fractalizing such systems can substantially reduce the physical size while preserving desired impedance and gain characteristics. For example, a fractalized antenna system for a cellular telephone may be fabricated within the telephone housing (500). The fractal component (510A, 510B, 510B', 510C) need not be planar and may be fabricated using printed circuit board or semiconductor fabrication techniques. Changes in spaced-apart or rotational proximities in an antenna or resonating system, or providing cuts in a fractal element may be used to tune such systems. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Ionized physical vapor deposition (IPVD) is provided by a method of apparatus (40) for
sputtering conductive metal coating material from an annular magnetron sputtering target (51).
The sputtered material is ionized in a processing space within the chamber 41 between the
target (51) and a substrate by generating a dense plasma in the space with energy coupled from
a coil (65,75) located outside of the vacuum chamber behind a dielectric window (61,71,81) in
the chamber wall (42) at the center of the opening in the sputtering target (51). Faraday type
shields (66,67) physically shield the window to prevent coating material from coating the
window, while allowing the inductive coupling of energy from the coil into the processing space.
The location of the coil (65) in the plane of the target or behind the target allows the target to
wafer spacing to be chosen to optimize film deposition rate and uniformity, and also provides
for the advantages of a ring-shaped source without the problems associated with unwanted
deposition in the opening at the target center.

Abstract: Efficient design to implement LDPC decoder. The efficient design presented herein provides for a solution that is much easier, smaller, and has less complexity than other possible solutions. The use of a ping-pong memory (PPM) structure (or pseudo-dual port memory structure) in conjunction with a metric generator (MG) near the decoder's front end allows parallel bit/check node processing (BCP) . An intelligently operating barrel shifter (BS) operates with a message passing memory (M) that is operable to store updated edges messages with respect to check nodes as well as updated edges messages with respect to bit nodes. Using an efficient addressing scheme allows the same memory structure to store the two types of edges messages with respect to bit nodes: (1) corresponding to information bits and (2) corresponding to parity bits. In addition, an intelligently designed hardware macro block may be instantiated a number of times into the decoder design to support ever greater design efficiency.
