Abstract: An OFDM frequency/timing recovery circuit provides accurate recovery of both sub-carrier frequency and symbol timing information from a single OFDM symbol. Accuracy may be further enhanced in demanding applications by utilizing two OFDM symbols. A unique frequency/timing recovery symbol is used that is an OFDM symbol.

Abstract: A sequential color scanner capable of generating both two and three dimensional moving color images has only one x- and y-deflection channel. The system includes first, second, and third optical signal generators for generating a first, second, and third optical signal, respectively. Each optical signal is characterized one of the three primary colors. The first, second, and third light signals are blue, green, and red, although not necessarily in that order. The first optical signal is generated along an optical axis. First and second beam combiners direct the second and third optical signals, respectively, along the optical axis. A first optical deflector deflects the optical signals in a first plane, and a second optical deflector for deflecting the optical signals in a second plane that is orthogonal to the first plane. First, second, and third modulators modulate the intensity of the first, second, and third optical signals, respectfully.
