  • Patent number: 10511090
    Abstract: A remotely controllable antenna mount for use with a wireless telecommunication antenna provides mechanical azimuth and tilt adjustment using AISG compatible motor control units and AISG control and monitoring systems to remotely adjust the physical orientation of the antenna. The mount control units are serially interconnected with AISG antenna control units (ACUs) which adjust electronic tilt mechanisms within the antenna itself. An AISG compatible mount azimuth control unit (MACU) drives rotatable movement of the antenna through a range of azimuth angle positions. The antenna mount further includes a mechanical downtilt assembly interconnected between the antenna interface and the antenna. An AISG compatible mount tilt control unit (MTCU) drives linear expansion of a scissor assembly and corresponding pivoting of the antenna through a range of tilt angle positions.

  • Patent number: 7657146
    Abstract: An optoelectronic controller for regulating an optical signal. The controller includes a ridge or rib waveguide in an SOI-type substrate. The controller also includes an active zone formed by a plurality of thin layers of silicon. The layers are either N+ type doped or P+ type doped. The zone is defined between an N+ doped zone and a P+ doped zone which together form a PIN diode. The optoelectronic controller is all-silicon and operates by carrier desertion.

  • Patent number: 4434547
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the manufacture and adjustment of a Josephson effect magnetic flux pick-up. This process comprises depositing a thin, uniform layer (1) of a superconducting material on a cylindrical insulating bar (2) having an axis and a cylindrical surface, then making a cut (5) through the layer of superconducting material on a line along the cylindrical surface of the cylindrical bar (2), which line is parallel to the axis of the cylindrical bar, while leaving a bridge (7) between two edges of the layer of superconducting material defined by the cut, then subjecting the pickup thus manufactured to pulses for adjustment of the critical current, by induction, and in measuring, by induction, the parameters of the pick-up.
