Abstract: A tunable optical resonator[100] constructed from a fixed mirror[14] and a moveable
mirror[13]. The fixed mirror[14] is attached to a substrate having a first electrically
conducting surface. A support member[15-18] having the moveable mirror[13] supported
thereon and a second electrically conducting surface is suspended above the substrate such
that the moveable mirror[13] is separated from the fixed mirror[14]. A light output port[13]
transmits a light signal of a wavelength determined by the distance between the fixed and
moveable mirrors[13]. An optical circuit[102,104] measures the power level of the light
signal and generates an electrical signal that depends on the measured power level. A
frequency adjustment circuit[106,120], responsive to the electrical signal and a tuning
voltage, applies an electrical potential between the first and second electrically conducting
surfaces. The electrical potential causes the distance to remain at a distance determined by
the tuning voltage independent of the power level for power levels less than a predetermined
power level.

Abstract: Methods and arrangements are provided that integrate media streaming and
Quality of Service (QoS) supportive protocols, such as, e.g., Real-Time Streaming
Protocol (RTSP) and Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), respectively, in a
manner that significantly reduces a session's startup latency as well as providing a
higher quality of service that is experienced by an end user. The methods and
arrangements selectively initiate the streaming of the media data as soon as
possible, perhaps at an initially lower QoS, while simultaneously setting up a more
desirable or applicable guaranteed QoS path. The methods and arrangements can
be implemented in an intelligent manner to dynamically and/or selectively modify
the streaming media in response to various network congestion problems, etc. A
different/dynamic QoS capability may be setup during an existing streaming
operation, and the streaming operation modified accordingly once the new QoS
set-up has been completed. The methods and arrangements can provide such
capabilities without significantly disturbing the user's experience.

Abstract: The present invention is predicated on applicants' discovery that an
appropriately spaced and dimensioned internal gap cladding can substantially
reduce short wavelength cladding mode loss in a fiber Bragg grating. A fiber
Bragg grating is provided with a ring of closely spaced, longitudinally
extending gap regions (30) in the glass peripherally surrounding the core (10). The
gaps are spaced apart by thin glass webs (31) having a thickness less than a
wavelength of the light being transmitted and are disposed peripherally about
the core at a distance of 2-10 wavelengths from the core center. The thin
webs limit the passage of the light between the gaps. The combination of
webs and gaps acts as an internal thin cladding which supports fewer
cladding modes than conventional glass cladding and, significantly, provides
increased wavelength spacing between the Bragg resonance and the first
cladding mode resonance.

Abstract: In a first aspect there is provided an extraction
lens for a TOF mass spectrometer ion source, said lens
including an element having an aperture, said aperture
extending through the element so as to form a through
channel, such that, in use, ions may pass from one side
of the element to the opposite side of the element by
passing through said through channel; characterised in
that said through channel has a length equal to or
greater than 8/10 of the diameter of said aperture. 
     This provides an extraction lens which leads to
improved extraction and spatial focussing of ions. 
     In addition, as the length of the through channel
formed by the aperture is at least equal to 8/10 of its
diameter, field penetration through the extraction lens
aperture into the region in front of the sample plate is
kept at a low level and ions are not prematurely
extracted. The aperture can thus be made larger than
would otherwise be possible. A larger aperture is
advantageous because compared to a smaller aperture, it
does not become quickly contaminated with material
sputtered from the sample. It is also easier to direct a
laser or other light source through a larger aperture. 
This is useful when it is desired to direct a light beam
onto the sample plate, along a path at a small angle to
or substantially coincident with the spectrometer's ion-optical
axis.

Abstract: A disturbance estimated type control system and a gas
compressor control system that are insensitive to a parameter
variation such as a heat load variation and a rotating speed change
and a method of designing a disturbance estimated type control
system are provided. A disturbance is applied to a control object.
An input signal and an output signal are inputted in an observer
and a disturbance is estimated. A deviation between the output
signal and a target value is calculated by a subtractor. This
deviation is subject to compensations by a compensator and
outputted as a control signal. This control signal is subtracted
from a disturbance estimated value from the observer by a subtractor.
Therefore, the disturbance estimated value among estimated values
of the observer is fed back so as to cancel an actual disturbance.

Abstract: An FIR filter and setting method of filter coefficients thereof enabling the
prevention of breakdown of equi-ripple of weighted approximation error and
preservation of gain of the pass band into approximately constant. The setting
method includes five steps. The initial setting step (F101) is that setting of the FIR
filter, setting of the band, setting of coefficients of a pre-filter, and setting of
initial extreme value point. The first step (F102) is that interpolation polynomial
equation is generated for interpolating amplitude characteristic from the present
extreme value point of the amplitude characteristic of the frequency. The second
step (F103) is that a new extreme value point is determined from the amplitude
characteristic obtained from the interpolation polynomial equation that is obtained
in the first step. The third step (F104) is that judgement is performed whether or
not position of the extreme value is approximated within required range while
repeating the first step and the second step. The fourth step (F105) is that finding
of the filter coefficients is performed from the approximated amplitude
characteristic obtained in the third step.

Abstract: A method is described for managing and monitoring the performances in digital
radio systems. The idea of the invention provides for identifying the type of
distorting phenomenon that possibly affects the monitored radio channel; in this
way it is also possible to univocally connect, apart from the cause of degrade,
the system performances with one of the performance monitoring methods
commonly usable. In practice, the invention utilizes two distinct thresholds, each
specific to the related corrupting source, and above all it provides an effective
technique for discriminating which of the two thresholds is to be compared with
the measure of the quality chosen. In a first preferred embodiment of the
invention, the type of distortion present in the channel is identified on the basis
of the error autocorrelation test at the threshold decision circuit.

The method comprises the steps of defining the direction of travel and
sector of a stator flux vector (   ψ   s   ) in the motor, predicting a torque estimate
(T pred ) produced by an output voltage vector of the frequency converter at the
end of the voltage vector when a change of voltage vector occurs at the instant
of prediction, comparing the predicted torque estimate (T pred ) with a reference
torque (T ref ) of the frequency converter, and implementing the voltage vector
change when the predicted torque estimate (T pred ) is smaller than the reference
torque (T ref ) and the stator flux vector ( ψ     s   ) is moving in a positive direction of
travel or when the torque estimate (T pred ) is greater than the reference torque
(T ref ) and the stator flux vector ( ψ     s   ) is moving in a negative direction of travel.
