Abstract:
An improved light-emitting panel having a plurality of micro-components sandwiched between two substrates is disclosed. Each micro-component contains a gas or a gas-mixture capable of ionization when a sufficiently large voltage is supplied across the micro-component via at least two electrodes. An improved method of manufacturing a light-emitting panel is also disclosed, which uses a web fabrication process to manufacturing light-emitting displays as part of a high-speed, continuous inline process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method for extending the coverage area and communication capacity of a spread-spectrum based wireless network. The system comprises a unique dual-scale, asymmetrical cellular architecture for a wireless network, wherein the communication uplink is based on a macro-cellular system, and the communication downlink is based on a micro-cellular system. Through the user of remote downlink transmitters in the micro-cellular system, the present invention provides a cost effective solution for increasing communication capacity and extending coverage area.

Abstract:
A method of forming micro-components is disclosed. The method includes pretesting and conditioning of the micro-components. The micro-components that fail testing or conditioning are discarded, and those remaining are assembled into a panel.
Abstract:
An improved light-emitting panel having a plurality of micro-components (40) at least partially disposed in a socket(30) and sandwiched between two substrates (10, 20) is disclosed. Each micro-component (40) contains a gas or gas-mixture capable of ionization when a sufficiently large voltage is supplied across the micro-component via at least two electrodes.

An improved light-emitting panel having a plurality of micro-components (40) sandwiched between two substrates (10, 20) is disclosed. Each micro-components (40) contains a gas or gas-mixture (45) capable of ionization when a sufficiently large voltage is supplied across the micro-component via at least two electrodes (10, 20). Several improved methods of forming micro-components (40) are also disclosed.
Abstract:
The system and method described herein facilitate back-to-back automatic scanning of moving vehicles without have the vehicles stop in the scanning zone. The system includes a scanning zone that comprises a radiation source and radiation source detector. The system further includes a first sensor component for automatically sensing when a first portion of the moving target has passed through the scanning zone and a second portion of the moving target is about to enter the scanning zone, wherein the first sensor component sends a signal to the automated target inspection system to initiate a scan of the second portion upon sensing that the second portion of the target is about to enter the scanning zone. Additionally, a shutter, triggered by a signal from the first sensor component, allows radiation from the radiation source to pass through the scanning zone in the direction of the radiation detector when the second portion of the moving target is passing through the scanning zone and closes off the radiation when the second portion of the moving target is no longer within the scanning zone.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system (100) and method for extending the coverage area and communication capacity of a spread spectrum based wireless network through the use of intelligent repeaters (130). The system (100) comprises a wireless communications network augmented with low cost channel selective repeaters (130) that is capable of repeating only desired signals, thereby suppressing undesirable interference and increasing network capacity. The repeaters (130) can be integrated into an existing wireless network with minimal impact to the existing network topology or control structure.
