Developing international direct marketing strategies with a consumer decision-making content analysis
Authors: McDonald William J.
Published: July 2007

This article examines an innovative international marketing tool for understanding multicountry consumer decision making. Two personal interview studies of consumers, one from the United States and the other from Germany, are subjected to a content analysis and statistical routines to examine need recognition, prepurchase search, evaluation of alternatives, and purchase decisions, in the women's apparel catalog market. The findings show that consumers follow decision-making paths with definable characteristics, and that these paths differ within countries but not across countries, except by the proportion traversing particular paths.
An exploratory study of consumer usage and satisfaction with 800 and 900 numbers
Authors: Morrow Kathleen , Tankersley Clint B.
Published: July 2007

Building customer relationships has become a focus for companies in the 1990s. One of the ways companies are doing this is by providing 800 numbers so customers can have easy access for conducting business or to register problems or complaints. Companies are examining the acceptance of 900 numbers by consumers for similar activities. The following are the results of an exploratory study of consumer usage and satisfaction with 800/900 numbers. The results indicate that although usage is high for 800 numbers, it varies across demographic variables and usage: 900 number usage lags far behind. The results also demonstrate that, in general, consumers have been satisfied with the service they get from 800 numbers as opposed to 900 numbers.
Direct mail: Can it work for religious organizations?
Authors: Considine John J.
Published: July 2007

Whereas many profit and nonprofit organizations have successfully utilized direct mail as a means to communicate with their target market, one particular type of nonprofit organization—religious organizations—has been reluctant to consider utilizing this technique. Although many religious organizations are slow in becoming more marketing oriented, others are searching for effective ways to reach their desired constituencies better. Direct mail provides religious organizations with a proven, effective tool for church marketing. This article assesses the current status of church marketing, discusses the advantages of direct mail for use by religious organizations as well as its limitations, and offers appropriate strategies for a direct mail program for churches.
The definition of direct marketing: A rejoinder to bauer and miglautsch
Authors: Schofield Albert
Published: July 2007

This article considers the definition of direct marketing proposed by Bauer and Miglautsch (2) in the Journal of Direct Marketing in light of the reality of the direct marketing industry. It suggests that their definition is really a definition of the direct marketing system, rather than of direct marketing per se, and that two definitions may be needed, one for direct marketing, and one for direct marketing system. It stresses that an acceptable definition must define direct marketing as it is, rather than what would constitute effective or efficient direct marketing.
Antecedents and consequences of infomercial viewership
Authors: Elliott Michael T. , Speck Paul Surgi
Published: July 2007

A survey of consumers investigated the nature and extent of infomercial viewership. This study assessed differences in viewership based on demographic, media usage and shopper orientation differences among consumers, as well as the relation of viewership to attitude and purchase intent. Viewership was measured in several ways to distinguish breath of viewing experience from depth of viewing experience. Findings suggest that different groups of variables are associated with breadth of viewing and depth of viewing and that breath of viewing and depth of viewing differentially affect attitude and purchase intent.
Direct marketing on the internet: An empirical assessment of consumer attitudes
Authors: Mehta Raj , Sivadas Eugene
Published: July 2007

This article reports results of a survey conducted to ascertain attitudes toward advertising and direct marketing on Internet. Results indicate that respondents react negatively to untargeted “cyber-junk” but are more favorable toward targeted marketing communication efforts. The Internet also allows marketers to target and communicate with highly involved and interested consumers, both domestic and global. The strengths and weaknesses of using Internet as a direct marketing medium are assessed.
Merchandising and the life cycle of books sold by mail
Authors: Desmet Pierre
Published: July 2007

Space allocation is a major decision for the catalog business. It depends on the demand function and management constraints. Sales elasticities with respect to price and catalog space allocated to books sold by mail order are measured at different stages of the product's life cycle. Econometric analysis of a sample of more than 700 observations for books sold by a French catalog club confirms that price elasticity is higher for repeats than for new books. Surprisingly, space elasticity is stable for the two groups. The study also concludes that some results obtained in advertising research on the effect of so-called mechanical variables of catalog display (frame, left/right page, etc.) are also valid for catalogs.

In conventional radio interference measuring apparatus, the direct‐QP detection method is used. In this method, intermediate frequency output is added directly to a quasi‐peak detector to obtain an output corresponding to the quasi‐peak level of the interference. However, a new type of QP detection method has recently been used in the radio interference measuring apparatus as demonstrated in the spectrum analyzer with the quasi‐peak detection capability. In this method, the intermediate frequency output is first added to an envelope detector and then to quasi‐peak detector. But it is not yet known if this measuring apparatus with its combination of detector, the envelope‐QP detector, satisfies all standards, including present CISPR specifications. The latter is determined based on the response characteristics of the direct‐QP detector system. In this paper, theoretical computer comparison has been made between the direct‐QP detector system and the envelope‐QP detector system to study responses to Gaussian noise and the repeated pulse input. It is found that the measuring apparatus with an envelope QP detector does not easily satisfy the present CISPR specifications. To improve the response characteristics of this new apparatus having the envelope‐QP detector, guidelines, have been indicated for the bandwidth and the charge and discharge time constants.

Authors: Hori Toshikazu , Nakajima Nobuo
Published: July 2007

Band broadening and optimization of a microstrip array antenna are investigated and a design method is presented for an S‐band satellite marine communication antenna. Validity of this design is confirmed by experiment. Bandwidth as large as 13% is achieved with a parasitic element in which the VSWR remains less than 1.5. The coplanar arrangement, in which the radiator and feed circuit are in the same plane, permits simple, low‐less structure. Based on these investigations a microstrip array antenna is fabricated for S‐band satellite marine communications which has a relative bandwidth greater than 8.5%, gain greater than 18.8 dBi, efficiency above 62%, sidelobe level below ‐22 dB and VSWR less than 1.5.

A radar reflector with bidirectional communication capability is presented. The reflector consists of a Luneberg lens and a reflecting plate combining a microstrip antenna and a switching circuit, which is placed at the focus of the lens. The reflector is capable of transmitting information from a reflector site as well as receiving signals from a radar station. Characteristics of the reflector are analyzed by the moment method using a wire‐grid model. The results are confirmed by experimental measurements. An experimental model of the reflector yields an antenna gain of 26.5 dB and a modulation ratio of reflectivity of 13 dB. A passive telemetry system covering a wide area can be built with a radar station and a group of these reflectors. Alternatively, a Luneberg lens having many reflecting plates can respond to plural radar stations simultaneously and independently.
Impulse train equivalent excitation signals for high‐quality speech synthesis
Authors: Imai Satoshi , Furuichi Chieko
Published: July 2007

In the speech synthesis using filters, other than the impulse train, some special pulse trains such as an excitation signal are used, especially the pulse train by Barker sequence and the pulse train obtained by averaging in time the energy of the signal. However, they do not produce a high‐quality synthesized speech. By contrast, the possibility exists that a high‐quality speech synthesis can be achieved by utilizing the residual speech as the excitation signal. In this case, a certain data compression must be applied to the residual signal. Several useful methods are known for coding the residual speech, such as base‐band signal coding and multipulse coding. For efficient speech data compression or realization of high‐quality speech synthesis by a rule‐based speech synthesis, the lack of rules or formulation for the excitation source is a serious problem. To realize a high‐quality speech synthesis by a rule‐based excitation, a high‐quality impulse train equivalent excitation signal is needed to replace the usual impulse train. From such a viewpoint, this paper first performed the very‐short‐term analysis of the residual speech, confirming that the spectral envelope of the voiced sound interval varies with time in quite a characteristic way. A method of generating the impulse train equivalent signal (FTSITES) with the spectral envelope and fine‐time structure is proposed according to the result of analysis. It is shown that a high‐quality speech synthesis is achieved by utilizing FTSITES as the excitation signal.
Examples of single‐error‐correcting perfect BCD‐AN codes
Authors: Goto Munehiro
Published: July 2007

Perfect AN codes are those with the least redundancy under constant code length and error correcting capability. The existence of perfect codes has been studied for generalized r‐ary represented AN codes and symmetric multivalue represented AN codes to apply them to multivalued arithmetic circuits. In this paper we define single‐error‐correcting perfect BCN (Binary Coded Decimal)‐AN codes and obtain the conditions under which the perfect BCN‐AN codes exist. These conditions do not depend on the weight sequence itself used in BDC representation of code words, but on the class to which the weight sequence belongs. By using these conditions we prove that for some classes of the BCD representation including (8421) representation there exists no perfect BCD‐AN code. For some of the remaining classes we obtain examples of generators of perfect BCD‐AN codes through exhaustive computation.

Published: July 2007

Recently, progress in the high‐density wiring technique on a printed circuit board (PCB) has been remarkable. Thus the problem of malfunctions due to crosstalk noise occurring on the signal line must be addressed. The authors have been developing the noise estimation system for PCB named NESSY and a program to calculate the capacitance of multiconductor system (CALCAP). In NESSY, the wiring pattern is divided into small segments, which comprise the equivalent element circuit. The partial capacitance of the printed pattern is calculated by solving the integral equation and using the image method in CALCAP. The crosstalk analysis of equivalent circuit was made by the circuit simulation program.

Among the results of this analysis, crosstalk noise using the partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) agrees quite well with the measurement. The crosstalk noise should be anticipated by the close coupling theory in the case of frequently used wiring (both the width of signal line and line spacing are less than 1 mm). The crosstalk noise voltage was relatively large in the case of impedance mismatching. The far end crosstalk noise, previously neglected in most cases, becomes especially large.
Scattering of hermite‐gaussian beam waves by two parallel conducting cylinders

Published: July 2007

Scattering of Hermite‐Gaussian beams by two‐parallel conducting cylinders is considered in this paper. Hermite‐Gaussian beams of arbitrary order incident on the cylinders, are expanded in a Fourier‐series with respect to each cylindrical coordinate system, and multiply scattered fields by both cylinders are derived rigorously. Since the analysis for the fundamental beam incidence already has been done, this paper carries out the theoretical analysis for the first‐ or second‐order beam incidence. Several numerical examples of the far‐zone scattering pattern and the equi‐amplitude and phase distribution of the near field are shown. When the configuration of the twocylinder scattering system is symmetric with respect to the beam axis of the first‐order beam, the scattering pattern becomes symmetric with respect to the beam axis and deep dips are produced in the directions of forward and backward scattering. Moreover, it is shown that both deep dips and the symmetry of the scattering pattern disappear even if an imperceptible asymmetry of the configuration of the scattering system occurs. The distribution of the equi‐phase planes near the cylinders, which have not yet appeared in problems of this kind, is depicted and the interference of the multiply scattered fields and the incident beam is illustrated.

Published: July 2007

A gain/shape vector quantizer for orthogonal transform domain has been designed based on a previous paper [11] on a gain/shape vector quantizer for a spherically symmetric random source. Such a design method is used in the design of a discrete cosine transform encoder with gain/shape vector quantizer. This encoder is similar to that described in [7] except in the following: (i) it has a gain/shape codebook; and (ii) its normalized coefficients of discrete cosine transform are modeled as having spherically symmetric distribution. The S/N rendition of this encoder is 1.0 – 2.5 dB better than that of the DCT coding scheme with Max‐type scalar quantizer at the same bit rate. Furthermore, in spite of its similarity to the conventinoal discrete cosine transform coding scheme with vector quantizer [7], the encoder introduced in this paper delivers higher S/N using the same number of multiplications for the quantization of normalized coefficients, and/or the same amount of memory for the codebook.
Reflection of surface acoustic waves from gratings on the surface of piezoelectric substrates
Authors: Suzuki Yuji , Shimizu Hiroshi
Published: July 2007

To apply grating reflectors to surface acoustic wave resonators, it is necessary to have knowledge about the reflection characteristics as a function of the grating parameters. This paper discusses the reflection of the surface acoustic wave by the grating composed of periodic metal‐strips on a piezoelectric substrate. The surface wave incident upon the grating is reflected by electrical and mechanical surface perturbations due to the strips. The reflection characteristics are analyzed by the perturbation theory and the coupled mode theory, considering the two perturbations. By numerical calculation, it is shown that the manner of superposition of the two perturbations depends on the material of the substrate, the cut‐angle and the strip material. For LiNbO3, LiTaO3and quartz substrates, the calculated value is compared with the experimental values reported elsewhere indicating good agreement.
Optical switching networks using tree‐structured waveguide optical switches
Authors: Habara Keishi , Kikuchi Katsuaki
Published: July 2007

To make a large‐sized optical matrix is an important subject in realizing optical switching systems. Although optical matrices using waveguide optical switches have potential from the viewpoint of high speed and circuit integration, they are limited in the number of input/output terminals (up to between 4 and 8) due to the insertion loss and multiple crosstalk noise. To reduce these disadvantages, this paper offers optical switching networks using tree‐structuredNx 1 waveguide switches as fundamental elements. Approximated equations for the insertion loss and the multiple crosstalk are given and it is shown that those in the proposed networks are approximately proportional to the number of stages in the tree structure. A 4 × 4 optical highway switch using Ti:LiNbO3tree‐structured directional couplers was tested to confirm its switching capability. The experimental results obtained have a good agreement with the equations of the insertion loss and the multiple crosstalk characteristic. By using these equations, the size of the realizable switching system was estimated; a highway switch having 32 to 64 terminals is found to be possible with the present technology.
A simple multiplexing method for pulsed analog signal and digital signal in optical communications
Authors: Kusakabe Hiroyuki , Nakagawa Masao
Published: July 2007

There is a need for simultaneous optical transmission of two distinct signals, broadband analog video signal, and digitalized PCM voice signal or digital data signal, such as in TV transmission. Conventional multiplexing methods such as FDM, TDM, and WDM, can be applied, but some problems remain to be solved. This paper proposes a simple multiplexing method for a pulsed analog signal and digital signal, which are multiplexed in different directions, time and amplitude. Digital signals can be multiplexed easily without affecting pulsed analog signals, and, moreover, the two signals can easily be separated at the receiver without a special separating circuit. The proposed method is analyzed both by theory and simulation, and it is shown that with very slight deterioration of the analog signal, the mulitplex transmission of digital signals with good quality can be obtained.
Design of offset dual reflector type multibeam antenna composed of parabolic reflector and shaped subreflector
Authors: Makino Shigeru , Katagi Takashi , Kobayashi Yuji
Published: July 2007

A method for correcting the subreflector surface is presented for the offset dual reflector multibeam antenna consisting of a parabolic main reflector. It is intended that the characteristics with a deflected beam are improved without degrading those with a nondeflected beam. It is seen that the portion used in the subreflector depends on the deflection direction so that only the peripheral region of the subreflector is corrected. In the present design method, the location of the primary radiator and the amount of shaping of the subreflector are determined by an asymptotic method in such a way that the aberration at the antenna aperture corresponding to the directions of the desired multibeam is minimized. The first‐order aberration is corrected by modifying the location of the primary radiator and the remaining aberration by shaping the surface of the subreflector. The present design method has been applied to an offset Gregorian antenna with a two‐dimensional beam deflection, and its effectiveness is confirmed.
Adaptive discrete cosine transform coding with gain/shape vector quantizers for picture signals
Authors: Saito Takahiro , Takeo Hideya , Aizawa Kiyoharu , Harashima Hiroshi
Published: July 2007

The authors have previously proposed a quantization scheme in which the ac discrete cosine transform coefficients after normalization are quantized by the gain/shape vector quantizer (called DCT‐G/SVQ). It is shown from the relation between the quantization complexity and the S/N ratio that DCT‐G/SVQ exhibits a better performance than the discrete cosine transform coding with vector quantization (called DCT‐VQ) discussed in the literature [6]. This paper proposes the adaptive DCT‐G/SVQ, in which the adaptive control is introduced for the coding parameters of DCT‐G/SVQ. Two methods of adaptive control are considered–the modeselection and the recursive adaptation. The adaptive DCT‐G/SVQ has a better performance than the traditional adaptive discrete cosine transform coding using the scalar quantizer. In other words, the S/N ratio is improved by 1.0 to 1.5 dB in the mode‐selection adaptive control coding at the same coding rate. The S/N ratio in the recursive adaptive control coding is improved by 0.5 to 1.0 dB. The adaptive DCT‐G/SVQ based on the mode‐selection control exhibits nearly the same coding performance as the adaptive DCT‐VQ of [9] with the same adaptive control scheme, but is superior since it requires less complexity in quantization.
