Patent EP-0748094-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BALES BRUCE MERILL
IPC: H04M3/00
Filed: 1996-05-13
Abstract: Providing capability for increasing, decreasing, or changing types of bandwidth associated with a telecommunication call during the call and through out the call path. New messages can allocate or deallocate bandwidth associated with the call at each intervening switching node through out the call path. All switching nodes of a switching system involved with the resulting call consider the call as a single call. The new messages allow adding video capability to a voice call and, at a still later point in time, removing the video capability from the call. The result is convenience to telecommunication users in that the user is able to utilize any type or amount of bandwidth during a multimedia call. Yet, at any given point in time, the user pays only for the bandwidth that is being utilized.

Abstract: Electrical circuit protection arrangements with PTC devices and mechanical switches. The combinations of this invention permit the use of mechanical switches and PTC devices to switch voltages and currents in normal circuit operations, wherein the voltage and/or current ratings of the mechanical switches and PTC devices are much less than the normal operating voltages and currents of the circuits. This feature permits the use of smaller and less expensive mechanical switches and PTC device than would otherwise be required in such circuits. The arrangements of switches and PTC devices also permit the PTC devices to limit the magnitude of the fault current passed to the circuit.

Abstract: A process for pattern searching in which position coordinates of patterns (WAM) on a workpiece (W) with a rough surface can be determined automatically and with high precision, and a device for executing the process are achieved by  CCD  cameras (1) and the like picking up patterns which are located on a workpiece with a rough surface, and which are formed only by intersecting lines, and by a storage means storing light-dark signals. Furthermore, according to the invention, the image signals are integrated in directions which are each parallel to the lines of the patterns, by which integral signals SXn, SYn are determined. By integrating the image signals, the images which are formed as a result of surface roughness are averaged. The integration signals clearly yield boundary positions of the patterns, and by differentiating these integral signals, the pattern positions are determined based on their peak positions.

Abstract: A vibration gyroscope (10) which is capable of accurately detecting a rotational angular velocity regardless of environmental changes or changes in vibrator characteristics includes a vibrator (12) formed of a vibration element (14), and first and second piezoelectric elements (16a, 16b) for detection and a third piezoelectric element (16c) for driving. Output currents of the first and second piezoelectric elements (16a, 16b) are converted into voltages by I-V conversion circuits (24, 26), or output voltages of the first and second piezoelectric elements are detected by voltage detection circuits, and then the voltages are added together by an adder circuit (28).

means inverting the above mentioned alternating sequence, said means including
an integrated comparator circuit and an integrated commutator circuit. Said
stereophonic information means can also be connected to time-division
multiplexing coder means, along with radio-frequency generator means and
frequency-divider means.The RF is modulated by means of an electronic
commutator, wherein pulses of the signals corresponding to the left-hand and
right-hand channels are alternated at a rate in the region of 13 microseconds. The

Une fonctionnalité de pompe de données est également fournie à l'autre extrémité de la transmission par interface air pour récupérer le signal de données numérique à partir de la transmission du signal de données analogique codé en forme d'onde. Le démultiplexage de la transmission de canal de commande analogique reçue pour extraire le signal de données est également réalisé, si nécessaire. Pour une communication de données envoyée à la station mobile, les fonctionnalités incluses de pompe de données effectuent les opérations inverses à l'une ou l'autre des extrémités de l'interface air analogique. Par conséquent, la station mobile porte la fonctionnalité de modem IS-130/135 soit sur un canal de trafic analogique, soit sur un canal de commande analogique.
