  • Patent number: 7514713
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel including an active device array substrate, a second substrate, a sealant, and a liquid crystal layer is provided. The active device array substrate has a display area and a peripheral area surrounding the display area, and includes a first substrate, pixels, signal lines, floating lines, and a common circuit layer. The signal lines are electrically connected with the pixels. The floating lines are disposed in fan-out areas of the peripheral area. Each of the floating lines is aligned with one of the signal lines respectively. The common circuit layer is disposed on an area of the peripheral area outside the fan-out areas. An overall thickness of the floating line and the signal line aligned therewith is equal to a thickness of the common circuit layer. The sealant covers the floating lines, a part of the signal lines and the common circuit layer.

  • Patent number: 6014606
    Abstract: Weather information, periodically collected from throughout a global region, is periodically assimilated and compiled at a central source and sent via a high speed data link to a satellite communication service, such as COMSAT. That communication service converts the compiled weather information to GSDB format, and transmits the GSDB encoded information to an orbiting broadcast satellite, INMARSAT, transmitting the information at a data rate of no less than 10.5 kilobits per second. The INMARSAT satellite receives that data over its P-channel and rebroadcasts the GDSB encoded weather information, in the microwave L-band, throughout the global region at a rate of no less than 10.5 KB/S. The transmission is received aboard an aircraft by means of an onboard SATCOM receiver and the output is furnished to a weather information processor.
