Abstract: A bi-phase signal is output from BPSK demodulator
(1); by a pair determining circuit (3a) and a clock
reproducing circuit (2), a clock signal corresponding to a
former half bit of two half bits constituting a data pair
of the bi-phase signal is reproduced; a carrier pulse
immediately following the clock signal is generated by a
carrier extracting circuit (5); using the carrier pulse
and a carrier pulse obtained by delaying the pulse signal
by a half bit period as a sampling clock, the bi-phase
signal is subjected to AD conversion by AD converting
circuit (8); two AD converted data values different in
time are input to a subtraction circuit (10), and a result
of subtraction between data pairs of bi-phase signals is
obtained; thus sign of a bi-phase signal is determined.

Title: Internal combustion engine detonation indication system
Inventor: GONZALEZ CESAR
IPC: G01L23/22
Filed: 1995-11-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a detonation indication system for an internal combustion piston engine of an aircraft, which senses detonation by means of a sensor comprising a piezoelectric force transducer (12) installed under a the spark plug of each cylinder of the engine. The transducer produces an on-going combustion pressure-induced charge signal which is converted into a voltage signal by a charge converter (14). A comparator gating circuit (16) removes, from the voltage signal, signal components, associated with intake and exhaust strokes, which occur below a predetermined combustion pressure. A high-pass frequency filter (18) then removes signal components associated with low frequency changes in combustion pressure. The output from the filter (18) is applied to an RMS-to-direct current converter (20) which converts the output into a direct current voltage proportional to the RMS value of the filter output. The output from the converter (20) is applied to peak and hold circuitry (22) which holds the peak value of the converter output corresponding to the most severe detonation event which occurs during an adjustable reset time period. A digital display (24) is provided which receives signals from the circuit (22) corresponding to the peak values occurring during successive reset periods and provides a numerical read-out indicative of the severity of the associated detonation events. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The implementation of number portability in telephone systems gives rise to several
problems amongst which is the need to modify the translation tables provided in
signalling transfer points for the purpose of effecting global title routing of certain
signalling messages. Prior to the advent of number portability, only the initial part of
a subscriber number was needed to effect correct routing but number portability means
that the full subscriber number is needed to perform correct routing. A method is
disclosed that avoids the need to enlarge the translation tables held by STPs. Signalling
links are monitored to detect messages needing to be routed by global title; the global
title of each such message is then checked to see if it relates to a ported number and if
this is the case, the global title is modified to a number that will result in the appropriate
routing of the message on the basis of the existing translation tables of the STPs.

Abstract: MOS charge pump generation and regulation method and
apparatus of the general type used in a non-volatile memory
chip for generating high voltages (∼20v). This invention
utilizes a current controlled oscillator to generate the
clock for the charge pump voltage multiplier. The oscillator
frequency is designed to compensate for process, temperature
and power supply variations. The charge pump shunt regulator
only utilizes regular low voltage NMOS and PMOS from a
standard CMOS process. A reference voltage scheme is used in
which a regular low voltage PMOS is used as a mirror diode
(reference PMOS) to precisely realize a control voltage for
the shunting NMOS without violating any breakdown mechanism,
i.e. PMOS gated diode breakdown and P+ to n-well junction
breakdown. A medium voltage level is also used to buffer the
shunting NMOS transistors from gated diode breakdown. A
native NMOS cascode current mirror is used to precisely
mirror the current to achieve minimum headroom voltage with
minimum circuit area.
