Abstract: In a channel impulse response estimator (12), a local preamble generator (35) generates a local preamble signal identical with a transmission preamble signal in a received signal. A preamble detector (37) detects the transmission preamble signal in an estimated sequence signal to produce a preamble detection signal. Responsive to the preamble detection signal, a sequence selector (39) selects one of the local preamble signal and the estimated sequence signal as a selected sequence signal which is supplied to a re-modulator (14). Responsive to the preamble deection signal, a step-size generator (41) generates one of first and second step-size signals as a selected step-size signal which is supplied to a tap coefficient producer (26).

Abstract: A method of fabricating a microwave waveguide component wherein a plurality of joinable thermoplastic members are first formed. The members, when joined, comprise a microwave waveguide component having an internal surface that is adapted to be plated. The thermoplastic members are then bonded together. Then, the internal surface is plated to form the finished microwave waveguide component. The present method forms microwave components from plated, injection molded thermoplastic and reaction injection molded thermosetting plastics. In particular, the plastic components made using the present invention exhibit comparable electrical performance, as measured by voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) and insertion loss, decreased device weight and cost, and reliable and repeatable manufacturability when compared with devices formed using metals, conventional thermosetting plastics that have been metallized, and molded, plated and soldered thermoplastics.

Abstract: The growing portion of a single crystal 1 grown by the pull method is recorded and the image signal is output to a digitizing circuit 3 that converts the image signal into binary data. A memory device 4 stores the digitized images and the point P at the boundary between dark and light is detected by scanning the stored digitized images starting from the scanning-start pixel and proceeding in the direction parallel to the direction of single crystal pulling. The diameter D of the growing portion of the single crystal is determined based upon the boundary P, and the scanning-start pixel for the current operation is set at the pixel that is separated from the boundary Pb in the preceding operation by a preset number of pixels d in the opposite direction of the scan.

Abstract: A display device often includes a correction circuit for correcting a position error which is caused by the fact that the deflection signals are not (any longer) in conformity with the video signals to be displayed. This is caused,  inter alia  by the fact that the deflection coils and the display tube are not ideal. By providing the display device with a waveform generator generating a (line deflection) reference signal and by causing this reference signal to traverse the same "signal path" as the video signal, variations in the delay  etc . can be corrected. Both the video signal and the reference signal are stored in a memory and read from the memory under the control of the correction circuit. Inputs of the correction circuit receive the (line deflection) reference signal delayed  via  the memory and a signal related to the (real) line deflection. With reference to these input signals the correction circuit applies a (read) clock signal to the memory. As a result, deflection signals and video signals are always in conformity with each other.

Abstract: In a satellite communications system comprising a central station (1) and remote stations (2) each remote station sends a pachet containing user data on a randomly determined slot of a forward satellite channel. If the packet is received by the central station, it sends traffic data and an acknowledgment signal. If the absence of acknowledgment signal is detected by the remote station, it generates a random number in a range determined by the traffic data and increments a count value indicating a number of instances where the acknowledgment signal is not returned. The packet containing the count value is retransmitted on a time slot determined by the random number. If an acknowledgment signal is received, the count value is reset to zero. The central station, on receiving a packet, generates an acknowledgment signal, and derives a sum of the total of packets received during a predetermined interval and the total of count values contained in such packets. The traffic data is derived from the sum and transmitted with the acknowledgment signal and host data on a backward satellite channel.
