Publication number: 20210382234Abstract: A cutting tool includes a cutting head integrated into a handle. The cutting tool can be used to make a window cut in a cable jacket by sliding the cutting tool along the cable jacket. The cutting tool includes guide surfaces to control the cutting depth into the jacket and to maintain the blade edge at a predetermined depth until the end of the stroke. The cutting tool also may direct a scrap portion of the jacket out of the cutting tool away from the cable. The blade of the cutting head is angled relative to a cable guide channel and is easily replaceable.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2019Publication date: December 9, 2021Applicant: COMMSCOPE TECHNOLOGIES LLCInventors: Norin P.

Patent number: 9350419Abstract: A system for coordinating transmissions of power line communication (PLC) devices may include a processor and a memory. The processor may be configured to receive channel state information (CSI) from primary PLC devices. The primary PLC devices may be communicatively coupled to secondary PLC devices via collocated power lines, such as bundled power lines. Thus, the transmission of a primary PLC device over a power line to a secondary PLC device may be electromagnetically coupled onto the other power lines, thereby causing far-end crosstalk (FEXT) interference with respect to other secondary PLC devices. The processor may be configured to determine precoding information for compensating for the FEXT interference based at least on the received CSI. The processor may be configured to provide at least a portion of the precoding information to the primary PLC devices and to coordinate precoded transmissions of the primary PLC devices to mitigate the FEXT interference.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2013Date of Patent: May 24, 2016Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Xavier Josep Reves Balleste, Yue Sun, Miguel Philippe Paul Peeters, Zacarias Iracheta Todo, Toby Edward Ralph Bailey

Patent number: 7399944Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and arrangement for controlling a glow discharge plasma in a gas or gas mixture under atmospheric conditions, in a plasma discharge space comprising at least two spaced electrodes in which at least one plasma pulse having an absolute pulse maximum is generated by applying an AC plasma energizing voltage to the electrodes causing a plasma current and a displacement current. The plasma is controlled by providing a relative decrease of the displacement current after the pulse maximum. In a preferred embodiment, the energizing voltage is applied through a series circuit including a choke coil and a non-saturable inductor.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2005Date of Patent: July 15, 2008Assignee: Fuji Photo Film B.V.Inventors: Hindrik Willem DeVries, Yoichiro Kamiyama, Jan Bastiaan Bouwstra, Mauritius Cornelius Maria Van de Sanden, Eugen Aldea, Paul Peeters

Patent number: 7187722Abstract: There is disclosed a technique in which any peaks above a threshold level are reduced, but not clipped, such that the effects of such peaks is reduced. Although the implementation of the technique preferably includes a clipping step, it is performed on the front-end rather than as the last step in the technique, such that the output signal is not a clipped signal. Any noise introduced by the clipping step, so-called clipping noise, is preferably filtered out of the useful frequency band of the signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2005Date of Patent: March 6, 2007Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventor: Miguel Philipe Paul Peeters
