摘要:
The invention proposes a mechanism for retransmitting packets which comprises a step for checking at the transmitter whether the retransmitted packet will be received by the receiver in time to be processed. To this end, the receiver sends in its retransmission request the processing time indication of the packet being processed at the receiver when the request is transmitted. At the transmitter end, this processing time indication is compared with the processing time indication of the packet to be retransmitted so as to authorize or block its retransmission.
摘要:
The invention proposes a new scheme for unequal error protection using forward error correction based on Reed-Solomon codes. The invention applies to data packets comprising data symbols having various level of importance. It consists in applying a single RS code to all data symbols regardless of their level of importance, but in skipping one or more of the error correction symbols generated from the data symbols of lower importance when forming error correction packets, if reduction of the redundancy is necessary.

A microwave oven which provides defrosting control for a frozen product to be defrosted. The oven comprises a microwave source and a detector arranged in the oven cavity in the proximity of the frozen product, the detector including a material which absorbs microwave energy, the absorption of microwave energy by the detector and by the frozen product causing their temperatures to rise and thereby defrosting such product. Variations in the detector temperature are measured by a measuring element which provides an electrical signal corresponding thereto. The detector is configured and insulated so as to have a heat exchange characteristic with its environment which results in its temperature detection sensitivity remaining constant during each of a plurality of successive defrosting operations of the oven. A computer control device evaluates when a defrosting operation has been completed by determining when the slope of the signal variation as a function of time remains the same at successive sampling instants.
摘要:
A microwave oven which includes a defrosting detector in the oven cavity in the proximity of a frozen product to be defrosted, the detector including a material which absorbs microwave energy, the absorption of microwave energy by the detector and by the product causing their temperatures to rise. Variations in the detector temperature are measured by a measuring element producing an electrical signal corresponding thereto, such signal being used to control the defrosting process. The microwave absorbent material is in the form of a layer deposited on a carrier which is positioned behind the product so that most of the detector area can only receive microwave energy through the product, whereby the rate of change of detector temperature with time decreases as the product defrosts and becomes constant when defrosting has been completed. The carrier may be one of the walls of the oven cavity or the oven tray. The material may be a resistive ink deposited on the oven tray by screen-process printing.

A microwave oven with a door-closing safety device is provided wherein a movable door comprises a device wherein the beam of at least one light emitter is guided by means of light guides towards a light beam detector. The light guides are arranged along a substantial portion of at least one side of the oven door frame. The beam of light in its non-guided path between the emitter and the detector passes through diaphragms, integral with the oven door, each diaphragm having an aperture such that the light beam passes through it when the door is properly closed but wherein the light beam is intercepted by the edge of the diaphragm when the door is not properly closed. The detector activates a signal that actuates the magnetron when the light beam is received; however, when the beam is intercepted, activation of the magnetron is prevented thereby preventing leakage of microwave energy.

Force detector (5) fitted with a blade carrying a strain gauge (12) and with a fixed support (10) and a mobile support (11) in which are respectively accommodated a first and second end of the said blade, the relative displacements of the two supports enabling the forces applied to the mobile support to be detected. In order to accommodate at least one of the said ends in its own support, the said support comprises a U-shaped member (13), between the two branches of which is inserted the said end bearing on slightly elastic contacts. A tactile screen is formed with the help of a plurality of such force detectors accommodated in a mobile plate (22) and a fixed frame (21). By coupling the two latter elements by means of suspensions (24.sub.1, 24.sub.2) and elastic fasteners (25.sub.1, 25.sub.2), the pressure forces acting on the mobile plate are, in a vertical position, decoupled from the intrinsic weight of the latter.

A detection device for measuring force and pressure is disclosed which includes a monomode optical fiber (1) into which polarized light is fed and, at the output of the fiber, is detected by a detection arrangement (4, 80, 81, 30, 40, 31, 41), which is sensitive to the polarization of the light. The detection arrangement is provided with means (30A, 31A) for analyzing the light according to at least two different polarization directions, forming an angle comprised between 30.degree. and 60.degree. between them. According to the invention, the device is provided with means (70, 71, 2) for feeding several non-correlated light signals, each polarized differently, into the input of the fiber, and with means (4) for distinguishing between the light signals in the said detection arrangement at the output of the fiber, which light signals have been fed into the input of the fiber. The invention is applied in intrusion detection, monitoring and security systems.

A refrigerating machine (10) of the refrigerator or freezer type comprises a device (33) for defrosting cold parts to transform the ice into water to be discharged. It has an end-of-defrosting detector (20) comprising:(1) a reservoir (24) which receives the water to be discharged, one of the branches (23) of a siphon (21) extending into said reservoir in order to drain the reservoir when the water reaches the level required for activation of the siphon, the other branch (22) being situated externally of the reservoir,(2) a light barrier (27, 28), comprising a light source and a light receiver arranged around the other branch (22) of the siphon in such a way that the light beam of the light barrier is interrupted by the passage of water through said other branch while defrosting is in progress, and(3) a electric circuit (30, 31, 32, 34) which stops defrosting when the light beam is not interrupted for a predetermined time.

A microwave oven includes a microwave source and a defrost detector arranged in the oven cavity in the proximity of a frozen product to be processed, the absorption of microwave energy being distributed between the detector and the product and causing their temperature to rise, the temperature variation of the detector being measured by a measuring element producing a corresponding electrical signal. The oven also includes a computing control device which determines completion of defrosting of the product by computing the values at successive instants of the second derivative of such signal as a function of time. The computing control device controls the oven at the end of the defrosting cycle, which is when the value of such second derivative falls below a predetermined value.
