Abstract: A method of processing interferometric data derived from an interferometer (20) to eliminate multipath signals and provide an improved estimate of relative angle between an emitter (21) and the interferometer (20) comprises the steps of gathering interferometric data comprising complex signal amplitudes derived from the emitter (21) at a plurality of emitter angles relative to the interferometer (20); processing the complex signal amplitudes derived at each of the plurality of emitter angles by maximizing a predetermined log likelihood function corresponding to a natural logarithm of a predetermined probability density function at each of the plurality of emitter angles to produce a plurality of maximized log likelihood functions; and selecting as the improved estimate of relative angle between the emitter and the interferometer an emitter angle corresponding to an optimally maximized log likelihood function.

Abstract: After document data have been inputted by operating character keys, if an automatic setting key is operated to allow the print character size to be set automatically and a print key is then operated, printing process control is executed and the greatest character size printable on a tape mounted in the tape printing apparatus is set (S33), a base line position shifting process is performed so that the character is positioned around the center of the width of the tape (S34). Then, dot image data in the print character size that is set on the basis of the document data is generated (S31) and the dot image data is output to the printing mechanism to be printed on the tape (S32).

Abstract: A mobile data carrier, e.g. an IC identification card used as a key card for vehicles. Locks, has a memory region that is protected and stores a pseudo random code. A second region has a memory used to store a secrete code. When used for the first time a stationary data station responds to the pseudo random code by producing a new secret code that is then entered into the memory. The card is read inductively and operates the lock when the code is identified.

Abstract: A target nucleic acid can be detected in a semi-quantitative fashion by passing it over detection deposits in a test element. The detection deposits include particles affixed to the test element, some of which particles have capture probe attached thereto, and other particles having no capture probe. The deposits have varying amounts of capture probe so that the signal obtained when the target nucleic acid is captured thereon can be semi-quantitatively correlated to the amount of target nucleic acid in the specimen. This method of detection can be used in nucleic acid hybridization assays or following amplification methods, including polymerase chain reaction.

Abstract: This scintillation camera is capable of obtaining a high resolving power. When radiation is incident on a scintillator (10), scintillation light having a light amount proportional to the energy value of the radiation is generated at the radiation incident position. The generated scintillation light is supplied to some of a plurality of photodetectors (31-35) constituting a detector array (30). These photodetectors (31-35) output electrical signals proportional to the supplied light amounts, respectively. The output electrical signals are supplied to a selector (44,46) to select a photodetector arranged at the radiation incident position on the scintillator and a plurality of photodetectors adjacent to this photodetector. A detection unit (40) detects the radiation incident position on the scintillator on the basis of output signals from a plurality of segments of each photodetector selected by the selector (44,46).

Abstract: A video server (10) for providing Video-On-Demand is disclosed. A plurality of data sources (100) are coupled individually to a first and second bi-directional data/instruction switch (70 & 80). The first switch is additionally coupled to a data storage system (90) and the second switch is coupled to a network interface. A real time controller (60) is coupled to the data sources (100) and the switches (70 & 80) and can couple any part of the data storage system (90) to any selected data source (100) and any given network channel to any selected data source. A control system (50) coupled to the real time controller (60) and the second switch provides support services to the real time controller and acts as a gateway to third party services and products. The data storage system (90) is largely comprised of disk drive arrays (92). Video data is striped across the individual arrays (92), each video data program that a user requests being striped across one array. Each array provides video data to many users through the data sources (100). The video server (10) is tolerant of individual failures in the data storage system (90) and among the data sources (100), as operating portions of the data storage system (90) and spare data sources (100) can be rapidly switched to substitute for failed units. The server (10) can also be readily expanded and provides a user experience similar to that of a video cassette recorder.

Abstract: In this method of processing UPVC sections coated with plasticised PVC for re-use, the latter is converted to a free flowing form with the aid of a fluid. The fluid contains a plasticiser suitable for further plasticising the soft PVC coating, to remove it from the UPVC. The UPVC sections and detached material are both processed separately for re-use. Also claimed is a plant to carry out the method. The washing stage (4) contacts the UPVC sections intensively with fluid. Rinsing is followed by after-cleaning (5) spraying the UPVC parts with the fluid. There is an interception and separation stage (9,10) for the plasticiser/plasticised PVC mixture, and a following filter stage (11) passing a maximum particle size.

Abstract: A liquid crystal device is formed by a pair of substrates each having thereon electrodes, and a liquid crystal disposed between the substrates so as to be movable along surfaces of the substrates. The liquid crystal is disposed over regions extending between the surfaces of the substrates including an effective optical modulation region, a first peripheral region outside the effective optical modulation region and a second peripheral region formed along a part or an entirety of outer periphery of the first peripheral region. The liquid crystal is disposed to have a higher liquid crystal molecular pretilt angle in the first peripheral region than in the effective optical modulation region. The liquid crystal is disposed in a random alignment state free from uniaxial alignment characteristic or in a layer structure in the second peripheral region. As a result, the liquid crystal molecular movement along the extension of substrates is suppressed in the effective optical modulation region and in the second peripheral region and relatively allowed in the first peripheral region, so that the impurities in the liquid crystal are confined in the second peripheral region while avoiding the liquid crystal thickness irregularity.

Abstract: A mark reader of the type comprising a light source (21), a light scanner (22), a plurality of mirror faces (23), read windows (13a, 13b) through which scanning light reflected from the mirror faces (23) is emitted and a light receiver (25) for receiving light reflected from a mark, such as a bar code. In operation, the reader generates a scanning pattern made up of a plurality of trajectories. The reader is switchable between different operational modes via a mode changer. In one operational mode, which is preferred for reading bar codes from menu sheets, a reading operation is only validated for marks which have been read with a particular one or ones of said scan trajectories. In a further operational mode, which is preferred for reading bar codes placed on articles, a reading operation is validated for all scan trajectories. The performance of either a conventional touch-system mark reader or a conventional remote mark reader can thus be achieved with a single unit.

Abstract: A highly parallel cyclic redundancy code generator has p precalculated k-bit remainder polynomials loaded in a lookup table ( 10 ). A cyclic redundancy code register ( 22 ) has a p-bit portion and a k-bit portion. An input data message is input to an input XOR gate ( 26 ) together with the contents of the p-bit portion to generate a p-bit result for storage in the p-bit portion. The content of the p-bit portion is used to control which k-bit remainder polynomials from the lookup table are to be parallel XOR'd to produce a partial cyclic redundancy code that is stored in the k-bit portion. The contents of the CRC register are shifted to the left and the process repeated until all of the bits of the input data message have been processed. The contents of the k-bit portion are then output as the CRC for the input data message.
