Abstract
A signal generator generates a temporal signal with a periodic configuration defined by an arrangement of seed patterns resulting from a branching construction iteratively using laws for composing several patterns and consisting in defining the periodic configuration of the signal as a component 'a.sub.n ' of the nth term Un with several components (a.sub.n, b.sub.n) of a recurrent sequence defined at the level of each of its components by a specific recurrent composition law, the initial term U0 having for its components the seed patterns (a.sub.0, b.sub.0). The temporal signals known as 'fractal' signals result from a branching construction of this kind. The generator comprises a microprocessor (10) associated with a keyboard-display system (11), a read-only memory (12) for programs, a random access memory (13) and an output digital-to-analog converter (14). When creating a signal periodic configuration pattern its working memory contains at least three files: a current patterns file, a previous patterns file and an old patterns file, the current patterns being constructed from arrangements of old patterns in which the seed patterns have been replaced by the preceding patterns.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
