Pulse position coding is used to transmit several channels of data from a ground radar transmitter to a receiver in an airborne, remotely-piloted vehicle. The system is designed to ignore interfering pulses, especially those which are synchronized with the transmitter's PRF, by combining a number of noise reduction devices. These include the redundant transmission of address and channel information, the transmission of true and complemented data, the tracking of channels transmitted in a predete...

A unipolar, RZ, constant width pulse telemetry is achieved in the combinatorial set, or any desired subset of pulse sequences thereof. Each input datum W is in one-to-one correspondence with a particular pulse sequence and the correspondence of datum with pulse sequence and vice versa is implemented by any selected ordering of the pulse sequences of the combinatorial set together with a successive comparison of the magnitude of the datum with the cumulative combinatorial capacity of the set.

A fuse element with an essentially prismatic or cylindrical casing contains two electrical contacts that are accessible from the outside, that are situated on at least one exterior side of the casing and are electrically connected with a fuse arrangement inside the casing. In the casing an encoding arrangement is provided in which the electrical tripping characteristics of the fuse arrangement are encoded. To ensure a sufficient encoding variety with miniaturized design versions, even at higher ...

A scanner (A) generates electronic data which is indicative of characteristics of an interior region of a subject in an examination region. A computer generator (B) generates corresponding pixel values of first and second electronic image representations which are stored in first and second image memories (12, 22). A video processor 14 retrieves pixel values from one of the memories and converts them into a video signal for generating a visual display on a video monitor (16). An audio processor ...

A coded data output apparatus comprises an image data input or generation section, a resolution parameter specifying section, a resolution parameter modifying section and an image data output section. The image data input or generation section inputs or generates data for a dot code image to be printed. The resolution parameter specifying section specifies parameter data relating to the resolution of the image data input or generated by the image data input or generation section. The resolution ...

The tools (wrenches) of this invention provide a one color instant identification of color coded tools. Preferably, the tools have a portion of their outer surface colored. Typically, the color impregnates the metal or plating during the manufacturing process. Another embodiment is a colored applique, band or sleeve on the outer surface of the tools. The key of this coloring is to identify the tool quickly by coloring a large area of the tool. This provides for quick identification of the tool e...

An optical fiber (1) has an outer coating (4) enclosing the cladding (3) and the fiber core (2). The coating has one or more plastic layers and a color coding in the form of an annular marking on or in the outermost plastic layer. The annular marking is open colored rings.

In a wireless local area network, predetermined interference-detection sequences of signal points, known at both the transmitter and receiver, are transmitted over a plurality of hopping frequencies along with a sequence of data signal points taken from a modulated code exhibiting built-in diversity. In the receiver, the extent to which there are errors in the received interference-detection signal points is used as a mechanism for identifying the likely occurrence of strong interference. If the...

A printer having a function of reading a bar code attached on a printing paper. A carrier cover of a sensor carrier unit is disposed against the bar-coded surface of the printing paper as located in the printing position by a positioning means, and the printing paper is supported on its rear surface by a guide member, whereupon the sensor carrier unit is moved in the direction of reading the bar code. Therefore, the distance between the bar code and the sensor is normally kept constant so that t...
