Abstract:
Method and system for dynamic provision of service conveying packets to groups of end-users, each group of end-users is coupled to the system via a bandwidth limited media, the system including: a router, operative to receive service conveying packets and to provide to each group of end-users group associated service conveying packets; a session manager, coupled to the router, said session manager providing routing instructions to said router, for dynamically selecting group associated service conveying packets out of the received service conveying packets. At least some of the service conveying packets comprise media signals.
Abstract:
A vehicle includes a vehicle frame and an optical device mounted on the vehicle frame. A first temperature sensor senses ambient air temperature surrounding the vehicle frame, a second temperature sensor senses a temperature of a lens of the optical device, and a humidity sensor senses moisture content of air proximal to the lens. An exhaust directs gas at the lens in response to the sensed ambient air temperature, the sensed lens temperature, and the sensed moisture content.
Abstract:
A method for successfully heat treating magnet coils of braided Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2Ox (Bi-2212) strand. The Bi-2212 coil is fabricated using standard round wire powder-in-tube techniques, and braided with a ceramic-glass braid with integrated carbonaceous binder. The coil is heated in an atmosphere controlled furnace below the high current density phase reaction sequence to burn off the carbonaceous binder and evacuated to remove unwanted gases from the inner windings. The oxygen environment is then reintroduced and the coil is heat treated to the high Jc reaction temperature and then processed as normal. As the local atmosphere around the surface of the wire, particularly the concentration of oxygen, is critical to a successful reaction sequence, high current Bi-2212 coils can thereby be obtained.
Abstract:
A conditional access method and apparatus for use with a system for controlling of digital TV program start time. Subscriber access is authorized to digital program streams. Content are divided into a plurality of working periods. Each working period of the plurality of working periods is scrambled with a different working key. A working key of a given period is delivered ahead of the given period. The working key is synchronized with scrambling control bits in an header. working keys are inserted into an entitlement control message (ECM) packet, and the ECM packet is encrypted using a service key. A time period is inserted into the ECM packet during which the service key is valid. A service key is inserted in an entitlement.
Abstract:
Critical current densities of internal tin wire having values of at least 2000 A/mm2 at temperature of 4.2 K and in magnetic field of 12 T are achieved by controlling the following parameters in a distributed barrier subelement design: wt % Sn in bronze; atomic Nb:Sn; local area ratio; reactable barrier; and barrier thickness relative to the filament thickness; and the design for restacking and wire reduction to control the maximum filament diameter at the subsequent heat reaction stage.

Critical current densities of internal tin wire to the range of 3000 A/mm2 at temperature of 4.2 K and in magnetic field 12 T are achieved by controlling the following parameters in a distributed barrier subelement design: wt % Sn in bronze; atomic Nb:Sn; local area ratio; reactable barrier; barrier thickness relative to the filament thickness; additions of a dopant such as Ti or Ta to the Nb3Sn; and the design for restacking and wire reduction to control the maximum filament diameter at the subsequent heat reaction stage.

Abstract:
A method for decreasing the effective magnetic filament sizes for high current internal tin Nb3Sn superconductors. During processing composite rods preferably comprised of copper clad Ta rods of approximately the same dimensions as the hexes in the designed filament billet stack are used as dividers in the subelement. Along with the Ta rods, Ta strips are strategically situated against the Nb or Nb alloy barrier tube which surrounds the subelement. The use of Ta as a spacer instead of copper prevents any reasonable likelihood of bridging of the superconducting phases formed after final reaction.
Abstract:
An improvement is disclosed in the method for producing a multifilament (Nb, Ti)3 Sn superconducting wire by the steps of preparing a plurality of Nb or Nb alloy rods where Nb or Nb alloy monofilaments are encased in copper or copper alloy sheaths; packing the Nb or Nb alloy rods within a copper containing matrix to form a packed subelement for the superconducting wire; providing sources of Sn, and sources of Ti within said subelement; assembling the subelements within a further copper containing matrix; and diffusing the Sn and Ti into the Nb or Nb alloy rods to form (Nb, Ti)3 Sn. The method is improved by diffusing the Ti into the Nb from a minor number of Ti dopant source rods which are distributed among the Nb or Nb alloy rods.
