Abstract: A repeater system for receiving a modulated input signal and for transmitting a modulated output signal comprising a clock oscillator for providing a repeater system clock, a demodulator for demodulating an input signal and a modulator for modulating the demodulated signal to obtain a modulated signal. The demodulator comprises a first mixer, a first controllable oscillator and a feedback circuit, the first controllable oscillator being controlled by a first control value such that the frequency of the demodulated signal approaches a desired value. The modulator comprises a second mixer and a second controllable oscillator, the second controllable oscillator being controlled by a second control value such that the modulated output signal has a predetermined output frequency. A controller derives the second control value.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring mechanical stresses of a rotating part (1) in an essentially closed metal housing. The rotating part comprises a sensor (2) which reflects electromagnetic waves and which can be measurably deformed as a result of a mechanical stress exerted on said rotating part (1). The two antennas (A1, A2) receiving the reflected signals of the sensor (2) are arranged in the bearing housing (10) in such a way that they cannot rotate in relation to the sensor and are distanced (&agr;). Said antennas emit receiving signals (a1,a2) which are sent to an electronic evaluation system (20,21) which measures the mechanical stresses of the rotating part (1) on the basis of both receiving signals (a1,a2).

Abstract: An inbred maize line, designated PH3AV, the plants and seeds of inbred maize line PH3AV, methods for producing a maize plant, either inbred or hybrid, produced by crossing the inbred maize line PH3AV with itself or with another maize plant, and hybrid maize seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred line PH3AV with another maize line or plant and to methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic maize plants produced by that method. This invention also relates to inbred maize lines derived from inbred maize line PH3AV, to methods for producing other inbred maize lines derived from inbred maize line PH3AV and to the inbred maize lines derived by the use of those methods.

Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a hybrid maize plant, designated as 38F10, produced by crossing two Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. proprietary inbred maize lines. This invention relates to the hybrid seed 38F10, the hybrid plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and trivial modifications of hybrid 38F10. This invention also relates to methods for producing a maize plant containing in its genetic material one or more transgenes and to the transgenic maize plants produced by those methods. This invention further relates to methods for producing maize lines derived from hybrid maize line 38F10 and to the maize lines derived by the use of those methods.

Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a hybrid maize plant, designated as 39R52, produced by crossing two Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. proprietary inbred maize lines. This invention relates to the hybrid seed 39R52, the hybrid plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and trivial modifications of hybrid 39R52.

Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a hybrid maize plant, designated as 38F70, produced by crossing two Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. proprietary inbred maize lines. This invention relates to the hybrid seed 38F70, the hybrid plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and trivial modifications of hybrid 38F70.

Abstract: An inbred maize line, designated PH0GP, the plants and seeds of inbred maize line PH0GP, methods for producing a maize plant produced by crossing the inbred line PH0GP with itself or with another maize plant, and hybrid maize seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred line PH0GP with another maize line or plant.
