Patent DE-19908685-A1 (DE)
Title: Method of controlling processes in networks with one or more terminals from a central node
Inventor: BUNCH WILLIAM
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 1999-02-26
Abstract: The method involves sending a process control signal from the central node (400) to a terminal (420,430,440) to cause the terminal to delay data transmission, whereby the terminal operates under a communications protocol which requires it to monitor the activity on a communications medium (422,432,442) coupled to the terminal before transmitting data on the communications medium.  The protocol requires the terminal to wait for a gap in activity on the medium lasting for at least a first period defined by the protocol.  The process control signal is stopped for a period less than the first period, whereby the protocol requires the terminal to wait for at least a second period before transmitting data. Transmission of the process control signal is resumed so that the duration of the period during which it was not transmitted is less than the second period. An Independent claim is also included for an arrangement for controlling processes in networks.
Patent DE-19913222-A1 (DE)
Title: Short-range synthetic aperture radar technique for resolving three-dimensional space and objects e.g. in ground by reconstructing backscatter characteristics of volume elements observed from different directions
Inventor: SUES HELMUT
IPC: H01Q3/04
Filed: 1999-03-24
Abstract: The space to be imaged is covered by a mono-frequency microwave signal from a transmission antenna. At the reception side, phase information is detected from echo signals, that are picked up after being scattered by the objects, by the individual elements of a receiving antenna array moved across the space. The phase information is subjected to a reverse transform using a Gaussian estimation algorithm to locate the spatial backscatter characteristics. Based on the reconstruction of the backscatter characteristics of a volume element of the space, observed from different directions, a three-dimensional representation of the space with the objects is thus obtained. An Independent claim is included for a radar measurement system.

Patent EP-1006514-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TAKEMURA YOSHINARI
IPC: G11B27/32
Filed: 1997-10-20
Abstract: In a read-only area, each track is divided into
sector regions having a same capacity. An error correction
code is added to a first data signal to constitute a second
data signal, which is recorded in each sector region by
forming a pit array. In a rewritable area, user data to be
recorded is made to correspond to the first data, to which
the same error correction code as that in the read-only area
is added, to constitute the second data signal as in the
read-only area. A data signal for rendering the signal
rewritable is added to the resultant signal, to constitute
a third data signal. A header region representing address
information of the sector is added to the region for
recording the third data signal, to form a rewritable format.
The optical disk is divided into two areas in the radial
direction; the rewritable area on the outer circumference
side and the read-only area on the inner circumference side.
A control data signal is recorded in the read-only area.
