Patent CA-2367071-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RENKO MITCHELL E
IPC: H04W48/16
Filed: 2000-03-02
Abstract: A communication device (100) contains a plurality of bandmaps in a memory (102). Upon powering up the device, the device first scans frequencies listed in a learned bandmap (104). If no suitable carrier signals are detected, the device scans the frequencies listed in a present regional bandmap (106), and this scan may be repeated several times.  Upon failing to detect a suitable carrier at any of the frequencies listed in the present regional bandmap, the device alternates between scanning the present regional bandmap and segments of a world wide bandmap (108), which is a comprehensive list of all possible frequencies at which the device may operate. If a carrier is detected indicating the device is in a new region, the regional bandmap corresponding to the new region is set to be used as the present regional bandmap.
Patent CA-2367795-A1 (CA)
Inventor: AMPLEMAN GUY
IPC: C06B45/10
Filed: 2002-01-15
Abstract: Polymerization of .alpha.-bromomethyl-.alpha.-methyl-.beta.-propiolactone (BMMPL) or .alpha.-chloromethyl-.alpha.-methyl-.beta.-propiolactone (CMMPL) yielded thermoplastic homopolymers that upon azidation led to a novel energetic thermoplastic polyester:  poly(.alpha.-azidomethyl-.alpha.-methyl-.beta.-propiolactone) (PAMMPL). An energetic copolyether-ester thermoplastic elastomer was prepared by using glycidyl azide polymer, a dihydroxyl terminated energetic polymer, as a macroinitiator for the polymerization of BMMPL or CMMPL. The azidation of the resulting copolyether-ester yielded an energetic thermoplastic elastomer that melted at between 80°C and 85°C. Polymerization of .alpha.-dibromomethyl-.beta.-propiolactone (DBMPL) resulted in a polymer which upon azidation yielded a new energetic polymer that can be used as a binder or into an energetic thermoplastic elastomer synthesis.

Title: Random number generator for electronic applications
Inventor: KAY TIMOTHY L
IPC: G07C15/00
Filed: 1997-06-18
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for generating random numbers for use in electronic applications is disclosed. A given sequence of random binary numbers of a certain length can be decoded into several random numbers for a specific application. The upper range values of the random numbers to be decoded determine the number of bits required for the generation of these random numbers. In the decoding process, the given random binary number divides a range value to generate a remainder and a quotient. The quotient becomes the new random binary number for the generation of other random numbers while the remainder is the generated random number. The process then repeats to generate other random numbers. At the end of the generation process, the last quotient determines the validity of the generated random numbers.

Title: Systeme et procede de recuperation d'informations de phase d'un front d'ondes

IPC: G06T5/00
Filed: 2000-11-08
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé de récupération d'informations de phase à partir de valeurs d'intensité enregistrées. Un filtre de phase (230), tel qu'une ou plusieurs lentilles dioptriques, est placé sur le plan focal arrière (BFP) (230) d'une lentille (210) utilisée pour observer un objet. Le filtre de phase (230) modifie la phase d'un front d'ondes dans le BFP d'une manière connue. Le système capture N ensembles différents de données d'intensité dans le plan image (IP) (240) au moyen de N filtres de phase (230) différents ou de N distributions de phase générés par un filtre de phase (230) à variation électronique. Les N images d'intensité sont utilisées pour obtenir une estimation du front d'ondes au niveau du BFP de la lentille. Cette estimation du front d'ondes du BFP est ensuite utilisée pour générer N estimations modifiées du front d'ondes au niveau de l'IP, chaque estimation modifiée correspondant à une des N distributions de phase du ou des filtres de phase (230) du BFP. Dans une forme de réalisation, les N estimations modifiées de l'IP sont corrigées par remplacement des amplitudes estimées par celles effectivement mesurées pour cette image. Le processus est répété itérativement jusqu'à ce qu'une mesure d'erreur entre les valeurs mesurées et les valeurs synthétiques descendent au-dessous d'un seuil connu. Une mesure d'intensité séparée du front d'ondes au niveau du BFP peut être utilisée pour accélérer la convergence du processus. Les estimations de phase résultantes peuvent être utilisées pour présenter des informations de front d'ondes similaires en apparence à des hologrammes.

Title: Aircraft landing gear with highly offset strut pivot axis
Inventor: PARZY BENJAMIN
IPC: B64C25/10
Filed: 2001-02-27
Abstract: An aircraft landing gear includes a leg having a strut receiving a telescopic rod to slide on a sliding axis, the strut being hinged to an aircraft structure and being capable of pivoting about a pivot axis that is highly offset from the sliding axis. The landing gear further includes a connection structure essentially formed by two panels connecting two axially separate points of the strut to a common axis structure extending along the strut pivot axis. In the gear-down position, the panels are one above the other, the top panel being connected to the strut via a high attachment which is rigid in twisting, while the bottom panel is connected to the strut via a low attachment which tolerates twisting, thereby enabling the strut to warp to some extent when the aircraft is turning while taxiing.
