Abstract:
A translation and teaching system for sending text messages over a telecommunication pathway sent by users in a first language received by a server, a comparison database of a second language for matching, converting the text into a second language upon making the match, a translator for converting the first text transmission into the second language if no match is made into a second transmission, a processor in the server for analyzing the conversion of the transmission for accuracy, and a data path to send the transmission to the user. The system may have a pre-processor that recognizes linguistic irregularities and modifies them to conform to the second language's pre-stored standard grammar and a human linguist platform for post verification of the translation. The system also generates learning lessons for user in language, a learning dictionary that groves with user input, and the addition of third party content for lessons.
Abstract:
An optical and/or optoelectrical transceiver and system are disclosed that enable parallel transmission of data and management signals via an optical fiber without affecting data signal transmissions transmitted on the optical fiber. Furthermore, the present transceiver and system provide a fault diagnosis function for an optical fiber link. The transceiver and system generally comprise an interface, an intersecting transmission management unit, a driver, a management signal driving unit, an optical transmitter, an optical receiver, an amplifier, a management signal recovery unit, a management unit, and optionally, a power supply unit.
Abstract:
In a coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) optical transmission system, a distributed feedback (DFB) laser is tuned so that the peak reflection of the grating overlaps with the gain range of the DFB laser. The diffraction grating is tuned so that the peak is positioned on the long wavelength end of the gain spectrum at a selected temperature. The optical transmission system operates in an environment having a wide temperature range (i.e., about −40° C. to about 85° C.). Heat is applied to the laser and as the laser temperature increases, the gain range overtakes the grating peak. When the gain range and the grating peak overlap at increased laser temperature, laser output is improved.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the disclosure pertain to an optical or optoelectronic transceiver comprising an optical or optoelectronic receiver, an optical or optoelectronic transmitter, a plurality of electrical devices, a housing, and a heat sink having a non-planar surface. The optical or optoelectronic receiver includes a receiver optical subassembly (ROSA). The optical or optoelectronic transmitter includes a transmitter optical subassembly (TOSA). The electrical devices are configured to provide or control one or more functions of the optical or optoelectronic receiver and the optical or optoelectronic transmitter. The housing is over and/or enclosing the optical or optoelectronic receiver and the optical or optoelectronic transmitter. The housing includes a first section and a second section, and is configured to (a) be removably insertable into a cage or socket of a host device and (b) position the first section of the housing outside the cage or socket when the housing is inserted in the cage or socket. The heat sink is over or adjacent to the first section of the housing and is in thermal contact with the housing.

Abstract:
A cooling system (12) for an x-ray tube assembly (10) includes a heat exchanger (14, 16) which receives cooling fluid from a housing (40) of the x-ray tube assembly and transfers the heat to a flow of air. A fan (90), such as an axial fan, directs the flow of air through the heat exchanger. The fan is positioned within a duct (78). A contoured air flux director (110) is positioned to intercept the flow of air from the duct and to redirect the flow of air in a direction which is generally perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the fan.
