  • Publication number: 20120243924
    Abstract: The present teachings provide a fusing method and system of tuning gloss level on a copy substrate. The method includes obtaining an image forming apparatus for forming images on a recording medium comprising a charge-retentive surface to receive an electrostatic latent image thereon. The method includes applying toner to the charge-retentive surface to develop an electrostatic latent image to form a developed image on the charge-retentive surface. The developed image is transferred from the charge retentive surface to a copy substrate. The toner images are fused to a surface of the copy substrate. The gloss is adjusted on the copy substrate by providing a fuser member having a surface layer a fluoroplastic matrix having dispersed therein aerogel particles wherein the greater a weight percent of the aerogel particles in the fluoroplastic matrix the lower the gloss.

  • Publication number: 20120242749
    Abstract: A novel composition for use as a print head face plate coating. In particular, the coating comprises siloxyfluorocarbon (SFC), which is composed of networked precursors containing reactive siloxane groups attached to fluorocarbon chains. The present SFC coatings can be used to produce a surface whereby solid ink and ultraviolet (UV) curable inks do not adhere when applied at elevated temperatures and over an extended period of time. The advantages of the present coating are fewer print head related defects, and longer front face life.

  • Patent number: 8275081
    Abstract: An approach is provided for supporting carrier synchronization in a digital broadcast and interactive system. A carrier synchronization module receives one or more signals representing a frame that includes one or more overhead fields (e.g., preamble and optional pilot blocks and one or multiple segments separated by pilot blocks). The module estimates carrier frequency and phase on a segment by segment basis and tracks frequency between segments. Carrier phase of the signal is estimated based upon the overhead field. Estimates carrier phase of random data field are determined based upon the estimated phase values from the overhead fields, and upon both the past and future data signals. Further, the frequency of the signal is estimated based upon the overhead fields and/or the random data field. The above arrangement is particularly suited to a digital satellite broadcast and interactive system.

  • Patent number: 8276125
    Abstract: A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for automatic discovery of the Java classloader delegation hierarchy. One or more classloaders are instrumented with byte code instrumentation code such that a delegation event is received each time a classloader delegates a resource finding method to a parent classloader of the classloader. From each delegation event received, the classloader that generated the delegation event and a parent classloader to which the classloader directly delegates the resource finding method is determined. Based on the delegation events received, the classloaders to which a current classloader in the one or more classloaders can directly delegate are determined. The order of delegation to the classloaders may then be determined.

  • Patent number: 8275086
    Abstract: An apparatus for frequency synchronization is proposed to detect a synchronization signal from the baseband signals. It is featured that three types of detection values are introduced to detect whether the synchronization signal is received or not. More particularly, the claimed frequency synchronization apparatus provides at least one signal power generator for receiving a predetermined number of symbols of the baseband signals, and further calculating an average quality value therefore. Further, the apparatus includes a signal selector for producing a first detection value according to the average quality value. Still further, the apparatus provides a decision unit to produce a second detection value. After that, a signal processor inside the decision unit is used to calculate a third detection value as combining the first detection value and the second detection.

  • Publication number: 20120238316
    Abstract: A mobile phone includes two different communication systems and a current table storing relationship between signal transmission power and current in relation to the two different communication systems. The mobile phone obtains two received signal strength indications (RSSI) in relation to the two different communication systems if the mobile phone requires the voice call service, and then calculates two signal transmission power in relation to the two communication system according to the two RSSI. The mobile phone searches a current table to obtain two current according to the two signal transmission power. The mobile phone compares the two current to select one of the two communication systems which needs a smaller one of the two current to provide the voice call service.
