Abstract: An automobile bumper (B) covered with a bumper face
comprises an upper bumper (10) including an upper bumper beam (11) and an
upper energy absorbing member (12) interposed between the bumper face
and the upper bumper beam, and a lower bumper (20) provided below the

Abstract: An improved pre-glued glass fiber wallcovering and process for its formation are
provided. Initially, both sides of a glass fabric are coated with a first coating
applied from an aqueous dispersion of a starch binder and a polymeric latex
binder. In a preferred embodiment a cross-linking agent and pigment also are
present in the first aqueous dispersion. Following the drying of such dispersion
to form a first coating on both surfaces, a second dried coating is provided on one
side only. The second coating is applied from an aqueous dispersion of starch in
the absence of a polymeric latex binder. Such second coating also is dried and is
capable of serving as an adhesive for the attachment of the resulting wallcovering
to the wall when wetted by spraying with water). Once applied to the wall the
wallcovering requires only one coat of paint.

IPC: H03F1/32

Abstract: The level wide dynamic signals of the modulation envelope involved in the
present invention are, for instance, the QAM modulated carriers characterised by
multipoint constellations and by an assigned roll-off of the transmission filter, or by the
usual radio signals AM transmitted. In the system of the invention the IF transmission
signal is subjected to a compression of the level dynamic before being sent to a
GaAsFET final microwave power amplifier, thus alleviating the AM/AM and AM/PM
distortions due to gain saturation. The compression introduces a given distortion
degree in the IF signal such to enable the observance of ETSI masks by the RF signal.
In reception, the IF signal is subjected to an expansion of the level dynamic, having
trend opposite to the compression one, before being sent to the demodulator. A
feedback network measures the FEC rate (Forward Error Correction) at the
demodulator and corrects in an adaptive mode a voltage defining the expansion
degree. The expansion causes the signal spectrum to coincide with the spectrum of the
modulated signal, obtaining a perfect linearity of the channel and the reaching of a BER
in the order of 10 -14 , that enables to employ multipoint QAM constellations, for instance
1024. In an analogue implementation, the compression and expansion devices employ
a polarized GaAsFET, in the first case, close to the knee and in the second case close
to the pinch-off (Fig. 7).

Abstract: In the conventional electric power steering control system,
a steering force applied by a driver to a steering wheel is detected
and a torque of a motor is determined on the basis of the detected
steering force. In such a prior system, at the time of going round
a gentle curve, going round an intersection at an extremely low speed
or the like, any steering wheel return torque is not generated unless
the driver returns the steering wheel, and drive feeling is not improved.
First, a road surface reaction torque estimator 15 estimates a road
surface reaction torque on the basis of a steering wheel angle. A
neutral point learning unit 24 and a neutral point compensator 25
learn a neutral point of the steering wheel on the basis of the road
surface reaction torque with respect to the steering wheel angle.
A return torque for returning the steering wheel to the neutral point
is computed from a difference between a current angle of the motor
and the learned neutral point. As a result, the steering wheel returns
to the neutral point under the current driving condition without
application of any force to the steering wheel by the driver.
