    摘要: An electromagnetic radiation source, such as an arc lamp, is located at a point displaced from the optical axis of a concave toroidal reflecting surface. The concave primary reflector focuses the radiation from the source at an off-axis image point that is displaced from the optical axis. The use of a toroidal reflecting surface enhances the collection efficiency into a small target, such as an optical fiber, relative to a spherical reflecting surface by substantially reducing aberrations caused by the off-axis geometry. A second concave reflector is placed opposite to the first reflector to enhance further the total flux collected by a small target. In accordance with one embodiment, the present invention is directed to devices in which the square of the off-axis distance divided by the radius of curvature is equal to or less than the extent of the source of electromagnetic radiation (y02/r≦s0).

    摘要: Several subscriber signals are transmitted simultaneously and at the same frequency by a central transmitter to several decentralized receivers which do not cooperate with each other, by digital message transmission in a broadcast channel. A common transmission signal, which enables an error-free individual reception, should be generated with knowledge of all subscriber signals and of the current transmission conditions, by signal preprocessing methods on the transmission side. Known nonlinear precoding methods totally suppress the interference signals, so that the channel diversity cannot be used. In the claimed precoding method, the occurring interference signals are, on the contrary, taken into account. On the basis of a modulo arithmetic calculation, the transmission channel is not totally equalized, but virtually divided, so that the transmission of the subscriber signals is continued periodically; the signals are selected according to the minimal transmission power and pre-equalized, in a linear manner, and the residual interferences, still remaining between the subscriber signals, may assume special values from a preset set of values. The set of values is selected, so that the interference signals of the other subscribers are also merely reflected in the otherwise already existing periodic continuation and can be suppressed or used as required by a modulo decision, on the reception side.

    摘要: A remote-control access control device, particularly for motor vehicles, includes a stationary transmitter and receiver unit responding to actuation of tripping means for transmitting a question code signal, receiving an answer code signal, and furnishing an unlocking signal to an unlocking unit if the answer code signal matches a command code signal. A portable transponder has a receiver receiving the question code signal and a transmitter transmitting the answer code signal. The question code signal is repeatedly transmitted if no answer code signal has been received in response to an initial transmission, and a signal parameter is modified upon transmission of the answer code signal as a function of a field intensity of the question code signal or of a battery voltage of the transponder. Alternatively, a signal parameter is modified when the answer code signal is transmitted if an information content of the question code signal indicates an emergency operation state. As another alternative, the transmitter and receiver unit has both a transmission channel for receiving signals of low field intensity and a transmission channel for receiving signals of high field intensity. A method is also provided for operating the access control device.
