Abstract: An optical and programmable wavelength add/drop system for optical networks is provided. It includes the providing of a first optical signal on the first optical loop as a plurality of wavelengths, each wavelength residing on a separate path, such that the providing occurs in the optical domain; the reflecting of any of the plurality of wavelengths; the dropping of any of th e plurality of wavelengths from the first optical loop into the second optical loop and for the adding of corresponding wavelengths from the second optical loop into the first optical loop, such that the dropping and adding occurs i n the optical domain; and the combining of the reflected wavelengths and the added wavelengths into a second signal. With the add/drop system in accordan ce with the present invention, dispersion compensation, signal amplification, a nd gain equalization involved in the providing of the plurality of wavelength, as well as the switching function involved in the dropping and adding of wavelengths, may be performed without the need to convert the signal from th e optical domain to the electrical domain and then back to the optical domain, rendering the add/drop system simpler and less costly to implement than conventional systems. The present invention has the added advantages of bein g capable of broadcasting and the monitoring of the adding and dropping of wavelengths individually. The programmable nature of the present invention reduces the required number of dense wavelength division mulitplexers, and i ts modular design allows flexibility in upgrades to more complex systems.</SDOA B>

Abstract: A self-adjusting end cap for capping an object having an opening. The end cap includes a base that has an inner and an outer surface, at least one post connected to the base inner surface, and at least one rib extending outwardly from the post. The rib is adapted to fit in a channel in an opening of an object to be capped. When the end cap and object are aligned for connection, the rib extends beyond an inner wall of the channel. A portion of the rib is sheared off by the inner wall of the channel upon insertion of the post and rib in the channel, thereby positioning the end cap within the object. The posts in combination with the ribs create a precise and tight friction fit between the end cap and the object. Preferably, the end cap has two posts, each with a rib extending outwardly therefrom, and the object has two channels, each having an inner wall. The outer edges of the ribs are separated by a first distance, and the channels are separated by a second distance. The first distance is preferably greater than the second distance. Then, upon insertion of the end cap into the object, the extra width on the ribs is sheared off by the inner walls of the channels, thereby positioning the end cap within the object.

Abstract: A remote data processing system (18) facilitates monitoring of the remote data processing system (18). The remote data processing system (18) receives a data message via a communications network (16). The remote data processing system (18) cascades at least a first stage software component (161) and a second stage software component (162) to form an installed remote software module (160) for accepting the received data message. The remote data processing system (18) detects the data message or a derivative at a group of logical nodes within the installed remote software module (160) to determine flow of the data message, or a derivative thereof, between the logical nodes. The remote data processing system (18) identifies a deficient software component of the installed remote software module (160) as any of said software stage components (e.g., 161 or 162) that blocks or disrupts the flow of the data message between two adjacent logical nodes.

Title: Method for controlling combustion in an internal combustion engine and predicting performance and emissions
Inventor: LI GUOWEI
IPC: F02D41/38
Filed: 2003-09-23
Granted: 2004-12-21
Abstract: This disclosure teaches a method of controlling a direct injection internal combustion engine and predicting the behaviour of a direct injection internal combustion engine. An estimation of initial cylinder pressure, air flow and EGR flow (if applicable) is used to establish a system that provides engine behaviour by integrating an injection module, combustion module and engine control module to provide data indicative of engine behaviour such as brake torque and power, air flow, EGR flow, cylinder pressure, brake specific fuel consumption, start of combustion, heat release rate, turbo-charger speed and other variables. These values can then be used to adjust commanded variables such as start of injection, commanded pulse width, rail pressure to meet operator demand. Also the output data can be used as a tool to determine haw a conceptualised engine design will behave. This is particularly useful for gaseous-fuelled internal combustion engines where cylinder pressure influences behaviour of injected gases in light of the fact that rail pressure and cylinder pressure are, generally, of a similar magnitude.

Title: Procede et dispositif de calage temporel des emissions de stations de base multiples dans un systeme de communication amrc

Filed: 2002-07-09
Granted: 2011-05-31
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des logiques de calage temporel des émissions en provenance de plusieurs stations de base à destination d'un terminal. Pour réaliser le calage temporel, on détermine les différences entre les heures d'arrivée des émissions des stations de base, telles qu'on les constate au niveau du terminal, et on les fournit au système qui les utilise pour reprendre la synchronisation des stations de base de façon que les trames radio spécifiques du terminal arrivent à ce terminal dans un créneau de temps particulier. Selon l'une de ces logiques, on découpe la différence de temps entre deux stations de base en une différence de temps du niveau trame et une différence de temps du niveau de la bribe. Dès qu'on lui demande d'effectuer des mesures de différence de temps et d'en rendre compte, le terminal mesure la synchronisation au niveau de la bribe pour chaque station de base candidate, par rapport à une station de base de référence. En outre, le terminal mesure également la synchronisation au niveau de la trame et ne reporte cette information dans la mesure de différence de temps que si c'est nécessaire. Dans les autres cas, le terminal applique pour la partie du niveau trame une valeur définie telle que zéro.
