Abstract: A collator (10) comprises a collating conveyor (12) and a plurality of hopper sections (20, 40, 60) located along the conveyor. Each section includes at least one signature pile support (21-24, 41-44, 61-64) for holding signatures to be fed to the conveyor. Each section also includes a signature feeder (25-28, 45-48, 65-68) for feeding a signature from the pile support to the conveyor. Each section has its own respective motor (32, 52, 72) for driving the associated feeder. Each motor includes its own respective controller (30, 50, 70) for controlling the associated motor to control the feeding of signatures from the associated feeder to the conveyor. Each controller includes its own respective motor drive for controlling operation of the associated motor. A master controller (14) interconnecting the motor drives controls speed of operation and coordinates timing of operation of the motor drives. Alternatively, each pile support (21a-24a) could have its own respective feeder (25a-28a) for feeding a signature from the associated pile support to the conveyor (12a). In this case, each feeder would include its own respective motor (112, 122, 132, 144) for driving the associated feeder. Also, each motor would include its own respective controller (110, 120, 130, 140) for controlling the associated motor to control the feeding of signatures from the associated feeder to the conveyor.

Abstract: A direct broadcast satellite sends subscribers signals received from an earth-station transmitter and typically having a 10 MHz bandwidth, 6 MHz for an analog video station and 4 MHz for up to 24 digital audio stations. When a subscriber selects one of the audio stations, an FM demodulator recovers the 10 MHz signal; a variable gain amplifier amplifies the received signal; and an A/D converter digitizes the amplified signal at (e.g.) 24.576 MHz. A digital synthesizer produces trigonometric functions (sine, cosine) at (e.g.) 24.576 MHz, and mixers downconvert the signals to baseband. The sampling frequency is then reduced to 256 KHz, twice the digital audio signal baud rate. In response to the 256 KHz signals, a first servo varies a VCO frequency to obtain a regulation by the A/D converter of the digitizing frequency at 24.576 MHz and another servo regulates the frequency of the trigonometric functions. A microcomputer provides a fixed coarsely amplified gain to the 256 KHz signals dependent upon the relative amplitudes of the video and audio signals. The amplitudes of the coarsely amplified signals are detected, filtered and converted to an analog voltage to precisely regulate the gain of the variable gain amplifier. The sampling frequency of the signals at the outputs of the programmable gain stages is reduced to 128 KHz (i.e. the transmitted baud frequency). A Viterbi decoder corrects errors in these in-phase and quadrature baseband "soft-decision" signals. The resulting 192 kb/s output data stream is decompressed and converted to stereo audio sound.

Abstract: A method of foreseeing and controlling wearing in the tread band of a tyre based on the use of cuts of a limited depth (in the order of tenth parts of one millimeter) formed on the external surface of the tread band, in the thickness of the elastomeric material. The cut is preferably carried out by the laser beam technology. Rotation of the tyre on a road or on any other friction surface enables both the uneven wearing of the tread, highlighted by localized spots devoid of cuts, to be quickly verified by inspecting the maintenance state of said cuts, and the wear velocity of the tread, which can be drawn from calculation of the time elapsing between the disappearance of two groups of cuts of different depth.

Abstract: A system and method employ a sensing of the attitude or orientation of a spacecraft for correcting the orientation of a line of sight of an instrument carried by a spacecraft to compensate for a transient perturbation in the attitude of the spacecraft. The instrument may be a microwave antenna for communicating with a station on the earth, or a camera for viewing the earth. The transient perturbation in the orientation, such as may be caused by the firing of a thruster of the spacecraft, is extracted from a measurement of the spacecraft orientation, such as the orientation relative to the earth. The line of sight of the instrument is reoriented by injection of an incremental orientation equal and opposite to the transient perturbation. The application of the incremental orientation can be accomplished in mechanical fashion, in the case of an antenna mechanically mounted to the spacecraft, and electrically, as in the case of a phased array antenna carried by the spacecraft.
