Patent EP-0878109-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WIEHE ULRICH
IPC: H04Q7/22
Filed: 1997-10-16
Abstract: A switching-oriented signaling load between a switching center (VMSCA) that receives a request for the connection setup and an access mobile switching center (GMSCA) that initiates optimized routing in inter-network fashion that is lower compared to the known method is achieved. The access mobile switching center (GMSCA) enters a destination address (AVMSC) offered by the home network (HPLMN) of a called radiotelephone subscriber (B-MS) or a destination address (AB') offered by a visited mobile switching center (VMSCB) given call redirection into a message (ANM) that signals the creation of the call connection. It sends the message to the switching center (VMSCA) in order to be interpreted thereat for charging for the call connection. The assigning of a reference number by the originating switching center that implements the charging and the transmission of a separate MAP message (not call destination) by the access mobile switching center are thus no longer necessary. The insertion of the destination address into the message that reports creation of the call connection only after the setup of the call connection has an especially beneficial effect with respect to the switching-oriented signaling outlay when a call redirection is set for the called radiotelephone subscriber.

Abstract: The output from a digital signal amplitude
regenerator circuit (10, 51) in which the amplitude
of a transmitted burst data signal is amplified, and
an initial potential generator circuit (11, 52), are
connected to a switch (12, 53). While there are no
burst data, the initial potential generator circuit
(11, 52) provides a circuit for compensating for
degradation in pulse width comprising a low-pass
filter (13, 54), a pulse width compensation threshold
generator circuit (14), and a limiting amplifier (15,
58), with an initial potential needed to set a
threshold. When a carrier detection signal generator
circuit (16, 59) detects the arrival of a burst data
signal, a carrier detection signal is outputted, and
the switch (12, 53) is switched over from the initial
potential to the burst data signal. Thus, the circuit
for compensating for the degradation in pulse width
located at a later stage can detect a threshold from
an optimal initial potential, and thereby the
degradation in pulse width can be optimally 
compensated.

Abstract: The invention relates to refractory materials particularly recycled waste material removed
from furnace linings. Spent furnace linings have contaminants making the material unsuited to
further use in a brick or compact making batch. The object of the invention is to provide an
economic treatment process rendering such spent furnace lining materials suitable for further use,
which objective is met by a process for the treatment of material reclaimed from a refractory
lining after the end of its useful life in which superheated steam is applied to particulate
feedstock material formed from the reclaimed material whilst maintaining the feedstock material
at an elevated temperature in a suitable vessel. The superheated steam may be introduced into
a flow of particulate feedstock material, such as, for example, by injecting the superheated steam
into the particulate material.

Abstract: Free-space optical transmission of analog information is facilitated by
transmitting constant-amplitude pilot information with the other information. The amount
of attenuation of the pilot information at the receiver (80) is detected and used to control the
amount by which received information is amplified. In this way the deleterious effects of
free-space optical attenuation are substantially eliminated. The pilot information may be
transmitted either via its own separate light frequency or wavelength, or as a
distinguishable part of a larger quantity of information that is used to modulate one light
frequency or wavelength.

Abstract: A single-mode stabilized laser comprises a laser cavity having a
round trip time τ r  and a linewidth enhancement parameter α; and a frequency
routing device formed in the laser cavity comprising controllable frequency
selective pathways such that selective gating of the frequency selective
pathways causes selected lasing frequencies to be supported in the laser cavity
separated by a frequency spacing ΔF C , ΔF C  = 1/τ r . The frequency routing
device has an optical grating having unequal length waveguides to form paths.
The optical grating has arms, a time delay τ f  between the longest path and the
shortest path, and a grating bandwidth ΔF F , ΔF F  = 1/τ f , at least one of (1) α and
(2) τ r  and τ f  having sufficient value to stabilize the laser in single-mode
operation. A method of turning on a laser having a waveguide grating to a
stable operating condition comprises the steps of applying an initial current to a
first amplifier and maintaining a second amplifier off; allowing the laser to
reach thermal equilibrium; applying an operating current to the second
amplifier; and applying another operating current to the first amplifier to stably
operate the laser.

Abstract: Procédé et dispositif de positionnement servant à limiter au maximum la durée nécessaire au déplacement d'un outil (4) le long d'une trajectoire continue, à savoir au-dessus d'un matériau transporté en continu sous cet outil. Cette trajectoire continue est discrétisée en déplacements géométriques, dont des paires sont, de préférence, réunies, afin de limiter les allées et venues du dispositif de positionnement. Des plages de vitesses sont analysées pour chaque déplacement discret et réglées de manière à se chevaucher afin de s'adapter à une courbe de vitesse continue. L'optimisation des plages de vitesses dans le but d'obtenir une accélération et une vitesse maxima de l'outil, a pour résultat un profil de vitesse d'outil optimisé dans la durée. On continue à optimiser les profils de vitesse de chaque déplacement discret afin d'augmenter l'accélération et la décélération, ce qui permet d'obtenir une vitesse maximum pour la majeure partie de la durée. Ce procédé permet de mesurer les effets de durée et de déplacement en incréments entiers. On exécute un arrondi et on règle les paramètres de mouvement de façon appropriée. Le dispositif (2) capable d'effectuer cette commande optimisée comprend des rails X parallèles (X1, X2) et un support mobile, dont chaque extrémité est commandée de façon indépendante. Des paliers permettent au support mobile de pivoter, la translation qui en découle étant absorbée par un autre palier à une des extrémités. Des codeurs optiques (6a, b, c) situés sur chaque rail X et sur le support mobile assurent un résultat de positionnement précis.

discrete electrodes are located among the adjoining cell-by-cell
common electrodes on the transparent substrate.
Display cells each of which is discharged to glow by means
of paired cell-by-cell common electrodes and a discrete
electrode are arranged in the display panel. According to a
driving method for the display panel, the cell-by-cell
common electrodes are interposed between the plurality of 
adjoining common electrodes. The discrete electrodes are
located successively over display cells adjoining in rows.
Time domains are determined during which display pulses are
applied sequentially to the plurality of common electrodes.
A unit sequence is completed over the time domains.
Discharge control pulses are applied to the discrete
