Abstract: Methods for recognizing gestures made by a conductive object on a touch-sensor pad are disclosed. Tapping, pushing, hopping, and zigzag gestures are recognized by analyzing the position, pressure, and movement of the conductive object on the sensor pad during the time of a suspected gesture, and signals are sent to a host indicating the occurrence of these gestures. Signals for compensating for unintended motion of the conductive object on the touch-sensor pad during the gestures are also sent to the host.

IPC: G06F12/08
Filed: 2005-10-06
Abstract: The invention is directed towards a system and method that utilizes external memory devices to cache sectors from a rotating storage device (e.g., a hard drive) to improve system performance. When an external memory device (EMD) is plugged into the computing device or onto a network in which the computing device is connected, the system recognizes the EMD and populates the EMD with disk sectors. The system routes I/O read requests directed to the disk sector to the EMD cache instead of the actual disk sector. The use of EMDs increases performance and productivity on the computing device systems for a fraction of the cost of adding memory to the computing device.

Abstract: Methods and systems for dynamically tuning and calibrating an antenna using antenna hopping are disclosed. Aspects of one method may include dynamically tuning a mobile terminal antenna, to antenna hop to a plurality of different center frequencies to receive RF signals. The antenna hopping may be slow antenna hopping (SAH) or fast antenna hopping (FAH). In FAH, received signals for a channel at each of the center frequencies may be aggregated. A hopping rate in FAH may be greater than twice a highest baseband signal frequency of a desired channel. In SAH, the mobile terminal antenna may hop to determined center frequencies with adequate signals for the desired channel. Signal adequacy of the desired channel at a center frequency may be made by, for example, measuring received signal strength for the desired channel and/or a bit error rate for the desired channel.

Abstract: Pro Adressat kommt ein IdO-Lautsprecher zum Einsatz. Die Sprachinformation wird per Mikrofon an einer Basisstation aufgenommen, dort in Funksignale verwandelt, per Funk an die IdO-Lautsprecher übertragen und dort wieder in Schall zurückverwandelt. Der wesentliche Gedanke ist die Verwendung einer Vielzahl von Funkkanälen, mit denen einzelne Adressaten gezielt angesprochen werden können. Jeder Adressat verfügt über eine eigene, individuelle Funkfrequenz, die nur er empfangen und über die nur er angesprochen werden kann. Es sind aber auch Durchsagen an mehr als einen Adressaten möglich, also an Gruppen oder auch an alle Adressaten gleichzeitig. Bei entsprechender Auslegung der IT-Verarbeitungskapazität der Basisstation und bei Verwendung mehrerer Mikrofone können auch mehrere Adressaten zu gleicher Zeit mit unterschiedlichen Informationen versorgt werden.

Abstract: A turbine engine (10) includes a first turbine structure (12) that supports a seal (14). The seal (14) is movable within a recess (36) of the first turbine structure (12). The seal (14) is arranged in close proximity to a seal land (16) of a second turbine structure for preventing a fluid from leaking past the seal (14) and seal land (16). A thermal expansion member (38) interconnects the first turbine structure (12) and the seal (14). The thermal expansion member (38) expands in response to an increase in temperature to move the seal (14) toward the seal land (16) preventing the typical enlarged gap (20) between the seal (14) and seal land (16) resulting from thermal growth. In one example, the thermal expansion member (38), which is arranged at each opposing end (22) of a seal segment (15a), is a bimetallic coil spring (38) supported on the first turbine structure (12) by a cage (24). A free end (32) of the coil spring (38) is secured to the seal (14) at the opposing end portions (22).
