Title: Installation and process for measuring the remanent magnetization of geological formations
Inventor: POCACHARD JACQUES
IPC: G01R33/02
Filed: 1994-07-25
Abstract: DESCRIPTIVE ABSTRACT            Probe and process for measuring the remanent field ( R) of a geological formation.            A measurement is made of the magnetic field (B+I1+R1) along the axis of the geomagnetic field using a scalar magnetom-eter, followed by a vector measurement of the resultant mag-netic field (Bp+Ip+R3) projected onto an invariable measure-ment axis. With the aid of the calculated values of the geo-magnetic field (B) and the magnetic  susceptibility field (I), it is in particular possible to calculate a component (S) of the remanent magnetic field (R) perpendicular to the geomag-netic field (B) and determine if the cancellation of the com-ponent of the field (R1) along this axis is due to a tilting of the magnetic pole in history or a local reduction of the remanent magnetization.            Application to the dating of geological formations in bore-holes or drill-holes.            (Fig. 1)

Filed: 1995-04-10
Abstract: An optical filter is provided having first and second graded index (GRIN) lensespreferably disposed in a coaxial relationship so that they have a common optical axis. Each of the GRIN lenses have an endface providing a port at predetermined location. The ports are disposed on opposite sides of the optical axis and each of the ports are substantially equidistant from the optical axis, so as to be oppositely offset from the optical axis by a same amount. The filter also includes an optical interference filter disposed between other endfaces of the first and second graded index lenses. By changing the location of the ports by a same small amount, the center wavelength of the filter changes by a small amount, thus in manufacture, the filter is tunable. After tuning the filter to a desired wavelength, the locations of the ports are fixed.

Patent CA-2155297-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BERNDT KLAUS W
IPC: G06T1/20
Filed: 1995-08-02
Abstract: A system evaluates the data derived from scanning a circular bar code element. The elements in the circular bar code extend radially outwardly from a center of the label, and their width varies along the radial direction. For that reason, should a circular bar code reader be offset relative to the center of the label, it is possible that the circular bar code reader would develop analog signals of the width of elements that vary within a single scan. At one location on the label, an offset reader may read one analog signal for a wide element, and at another location may read a wholly different signal for a wide element with an identical width. To address this problem, an element under evaluation is compared to adjacent elements, and a determination is made of whether the particular element is wide or narrow. Any offset will cause minimal variation in adjacent elements. Several methods for using this basic concept are disclosed. The invention also provides an improved method of switching between digital signals indicating dark or light elements. The analog signal is separated into two branches with a first branch being directed into a delay. The second branch identifies a peak value for the particular element, and then develops a signal proportional to that peak value. The delayed signal is then compared to that proportional signal, and when the delayed signal crosses that proportional signal, the digital signal is switched between the dark and light readings.

Title: A method for selecting a free link and an arrangement therefor
Inventor: SALLBERG HANS KRISTER MIKAEL
IPC: H04L12/725
Filed: 1994-04-28
Abstract: The invention provides a method and an arrangement for selecting a free link for a requested connection from among a plurality of available links coordinated to form a route in accordance with the particular resource requirement of the requested connection and in dependence on the current resource seizure of connections that have already been established on utilized links, wherein the requested connection and the connections that already have been established have the same or different resource requirements. The current resource seizure for each link resulting from the established connection or connections is stored in a memory. Each link is sorted in the memory in one of a plurality of link-allocated memory sites which correspond to the current resource seizure of the link or the free or unused resource capacity of the link. The memory sites are ordered in the memory in accordance with a link capacity associated with each memory site. Upon occurrence of a requested connection having a particular resource requirement, a memory site is chosen depending on the particular resource requirement. Whether the chosen memory site and a link associated therewith has free capacity for the particular resource requirement then is evaluated.
