Abstract: An electronic position sensor assembly and
engine control system (10) in which two sensing
elements (13, 14) in a dual sensor (12) provide
separate, independent position signals (A, B)
related to multi-cylinder engine cycle position by
sensing the angular position of a engine-rotated
slotted wheel (11). The sensing elements provide
identical sensing signals shifted from each other
by a predetermined angular amount (d). In response
to the simultaneous providing of a pulse by both
sensing elements, a first reference signal (at 22)
identifying a reference cylinder is provided for
controlling electronic distribution of spark timing
and/or fuel injection signals to engine cylinders
(17-20). In response to a selected one of the
sensing elements producing a pulse which has a
predetermined longer duration than a preceding
produced pulse, a second reference signal (after
50) is produced indicative of top-dead center
engine cylinder cycle position for one of the
cylinders. In response to detecting a fault in the
position signal produced by the one selected
sensing element, a switch (27) selects the other of
the sensing elements for utilization in producing
the second reference signal, and a substitute 
reference signal circuit (40) provides a substitute
first reference signal. A less expensive and more
reliable engine position sensor assembly and engine
control system is provided since proper system
operation is maintained despite a fault in one of
the position signals.

desiccant (11) in this zone (30,31 or 33-36) is regenerated, so that

aryl group which does not include a pendent hydroxyl group. In either
instance, the groups attached to the dibenzoylresorcinol may contain a
wide variety of functional sites which permit further reaction, e.g.,
copolymerization. The described compounds are very useful as UV light
absorbers.

dibenzoylresorcinol-derived compounds are also described. The
compositions, which usually include a transparent, polymeric matrix
material, may be applied to various substrates, e.g., thermoplastics, to

Abstract: In a CCD imager 1, charge is accumulated in pixels of an image area 2 representative
of the intensity of incident radiation and is subsequently transferred to a store section 3 and
then on a row by row basis to an output register 4 by applying suitable drive pulses to
electrodes 7 and 8. Signal charge in the output register 4 is transferred to a multiplication
register 5 by drive pulses applied to electrodes 9 and 10 to give charge transfer in the
direction shown by the arrows. One or more drive pulses applied to the electrodes of the
multiplication register 5 are of sufficiently large amplitude to produce high field regions in
the register element to cause signal multiplication by impact ionisation. This gives a low
noise amplification of the signal charge, the multiplied signal charge being detected at
charge detection circuit 6.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for coating an article with a siloxane-based
coating composition that results in a coating with high thermal
mechanical stability, the method also allowing commercially acceptable
speeds to be employed while inhibiting beading of the coating prior to cure.
In one embodiment, an article is coated with a composition containing a first
methylsilsequioxane oligomer having an initial viscosity of about 2000 cp or
less, a second methylsilsequioxane oligomer having an initial viscosity of
about 40,000 to about 90,000 cp, a viscosity-lowering additive of a lower
aliphatic ketone, and a catalyst. In another embodiment, the invention
provides a method for coating an article with a modified methylsilsequioxane
coating suitable for higher temperature applications than an all-methyl
coating. This embodiment involves coating an article with a composition
comprising an oligomer characterized by A:B:C, where A represents the
number of methyl pendant groups in the oligomer and is about 13 to about
67, B represents dimethyl pendant groups and is about 0 to about 33, and C
represents phenyl pendant groups and is about 10 to about 80, a lower
aliphatic ketone viscosity-lowering additive, and a catalyst of a moderately
strong protic acid. In a third embodiment, it is possible to attain an even
higher temperature coating. The method involves a step of applying a
coating containing modified methylsilsequioxane oligomer that was prepared
by mixing methyltriethoxysilane monomer with dimethyldiethoxysilane
monomer that has already been partially hydrolyzed and oligomerized.

Abstract: The device has a reference channel (16) which opens in the tank (12) above the liquid and a single bubble (22) channel immersed below the liquid surface. At the lower end of this channel is an enlarged section (22a), the lower end of which is at a known height (Hd) above the tank bottom. A method for injection of air (20,26) into the reference (16) and bubble (22) channel is provided as well as a valve (30) for opening and closing a communication channel between the two transmitter (32) for measuring pressure difference between the two channels. The two channels are initially connected, then the valve (30) is shut and the air in the bubble channel slowly forces the liquid out of the enlarged section. The transmitter (32) follows the pressure as a function of time and the slope changes when the level reaches the top (A) and then the bottom (B) of the enlarged section. The pressure values at these two levels permit the liquid density and then its level to be determined.

Abstract: A method and a telecommunications system supporting compressed mode
operation is described in which this type of operation is used more frequently than
previously known. To compensate for the reduction in reception quality caused by the
interruptions to transmissions, the transmitted power may be increased. To prevent an

a central processor (40). The central processor (40) also controls the power of a transmit
power amplifier (45) and has sufficient intelligence to specify the optimum timing and
position in a frame of a punctured slot to the frame processor (37) and to control the
