Title: Optimal parametric signal processor with lattice basic cell.
Inventor: CARAYANNIS GEORGE
IPC: G06F17/10
Filed: 1987-03-06
Abstract: An optimal parametric signal processor, which receives autocorrelation coefficients, provides lattice coefficients in an optimal manner, and allows the use of any number of available parallel processing units. The signal processor may be implemented in a fully parallel or fully sequential manner, or in a "parallel-partitioned" implementation which provides the benefits of parallel processing, manageable hardware complexity, and optimal signal processing for a given number of available processors. By using a "lattice basic cell" structure, hardware complexity is minimized.

IPC: G10K11/26

Abstract: Une colonne (2) de liquide est placée entre deux sources ultrasoniques (6) de fréquence élevée dans le champ d'une onde stationnaire produite par les sources. Chaque source produit un faisceau convergent qui compense de manière considérable l'atténuation de l'énergie ultrasonique se produisant aux fréquences plus élevées. Il est ainsi possible d'accroître considérablement la distance axiale le long de l'onde stationnaire où les effets de flux dus à la pression acoustique sont absents ou négligeables. Il est également possible d'accroître l'angle de convergence pour compenser la divergence des sorties en provenance des sources.

Abstract: The invention suggests an apparatus and a method for aligning motor vehicle wheels which eliminates the need to attach an apparatus to the vehicle or to physically contact the wheel to be aligned. Noncontact sensors (36) project fanned or structured light onto a tire (12), while the wheel is rotated, to illuminate at least two contour lines (38) on the surface of the tire (12). The contour lines (38) are read by video cameras, positioned offset from the optical plane of the structured light, to allow triangulation in determining the spatial position of the contour lines (38). Radially equivalent points are selected from each contour line (38) by an algorithm which ignores the effects of any raised lettering on the tire sidewalls. Control of the video cameras and pro­cessing of the video data is performed by parallel processor-­based computer system coordinated by sequencer circuit (Fig. 3).

Abstract: A jackfield (10) has a split front panel (26,28) so that it can be removed to provide access to jack modules (14) without breaking patch cord interconnections between jacks. Each jack module (14) includes a printed circuit board (48) having a lamp assembly (40) and a tri-jack (50) connected to the front and extending forwardly. The printed circuit boards (48) are hard wired at the back of the jackfield and the printed circuit boards route the circuits to the tri-jack (50) and the lamp assembly (40). To remove just a tri-jack (50), it is pulled forwardly after the split front panel (26,28) is removed. A lateral bracket (232) retains the printed circuit board (48) to prevent it from being pulled forwardly. To remove the entire jack module (14), the wire wraps (62,64) are disconnected from the back of the printed circuit board (48) and the retaining bracket (232) is removed. Then, the entire module (14) can be slid forwardly in its guide slots. When a module (14) is inserted, conductor pads (68a, 68b, 68c) on the printed circuit board (48) automatically align and electrically mate with slidably engageable bus terminals (200a, 200b, 200c) to provide -48 volts DC and ground for lighting the lamp (42).

Abstract: The testing device (1) for agglutination analysers comprises a receiving and mixing region (7) for the sample and the reagents, and a reaction capillary (4) with an upstream region (9) having a capillary action for creating a flow velocity of the sample/reagent mixture, greater than the velocity along a downstream region (10) of the reaction capillary (4). An intermediate region (11) can be provided between the upstream and downstream capillary regions (9,10). At its downstream end (6), the reaction capillary (4) is connected to a collecting region (8). The testing device is distinguished by steady feeding and motion of the sample/reagent mixture through the reaction capillary (4). In particular, the time taken for a sample/reagent mixture to flow from the upstream end (5) to the downstream end (6) of the reaction capillary is subject to only slight fluctuations between different tests. The testing device is particularly suitable for the detection of drug abuse, for example for the detection of cocaine metabolites in human body fluids.

Abstract: In CCD arrangements, such as bidimensional image sensors, it is usual to provide the output register in the form of two (or more) horizontal registers.  Via  transverse connections between the horizontal registers, charge packets are transported from one horizontal register to the other horizontal register. In order to avoid delays during this transverse transport due to narrow channel effects, the clock electrodes of the first horizontal register adjoining the transverse connections are widened at the expense of adjacent clock electrodes. These widened electrodes may be in the trapezoidal form, as a result of which additional drift fields are induced below these electrodes.

Title: Residue arithmetic apparatus
Inventor: BURGESS IAN ALEXANDER
IPC: G06F7/72
Filed: 1989-06-12
Abstract: In an arithmetic apparatus operands are represented as powers of a generator so that multiplications can be performed as simple additions. However this makes actual addition difficult. Additions are therefore performed by means of a subtractor circuit (1), a Zech table (2) and an adder circuit (3). In order to perform these additions when each power is in plural residue form (x₁, x₂ and y₁, y₂) and give the result power also in plural residue form (i₁, i₂), the subtractor circuit comprises subtractor subcircuits (1A, 1B), the adder circuit comprises adder subcircuits (3A, 3B) and the Zech table is arranged to produce its output also in plural residue form (j₁, j₂). In order to obtain the correct result even when the power representation y₁, y₂ represents an operand value of zero the apparatus also includes a detector (58) for this condition, this controlling a multiplexer (61) which then conducts the other operand (x₁, y₁) to the output (14A′, 14B′). The Zech table may be modified so that the apparatus performs subtractions rather than additions.
