Patent CA-2557328-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KNILL ALEX C
IPC: H02M3/335
Filed: 2005-01-28
Abstract: A three-phase electronic electricity meter that includes a power supply circuit operable to create a constant voltage output when receiving a variable voltage input (24). The power supply circuit of the electricity meter receives a three-phase line voltage and converts the variable three phase line voltage to a constant DC output (26). The power supply circuit includes a current limiting circuit (44) to suspend operation of the power converter when the current exceeds a selected value. The power supply circuit includes an over voltage protection (46) that limits the maximum voltage applied to the switching component of the power supply circuit. Both the over voltage protection circuit and the current limiting circuit suspend operation of the power converter to prevent damage to the operating components of the power supply circuit.

Title: Rotating rectifier assembly
Inventor: GRELL BRANDON M
IPC: H02K7/20
Filed: 2006-08-30
Abstract: A rectifier assembly includes individual diodes arranged to form a full-wave bridge such that the silicon wafers of the diodes are loaded in compression.  As so arranged, the centrifugal forces add to the compression forces on the diodes and on the electrical contacts therewith. The three-phase (AC) input conductors are connected by conductive straps which connect the diodes through to DC (+/-) terminal ring outputs. One surface of each of the diodes is in electrical contact with a conductive strap which then connects with the individual (AC) phases of an exciter rotor winding. The opposing surface of the diode contacts the ring diode pad on either the DC (+/-) output terminal ring. Two conductive posts, each of which are connected to only one of the DC (+/-) output terminal rings permit external connection to a main rotor winding.

Patent CA-2560105-A1 (CA)
Title: Bear training apparatus and method
Inventor: LUCKEN MICHAEL J
IPC: A01K15/02
Filed: 2006-09-15
Abstract: A device is described for training a wild bear to be at a particular location on a regular daily schedule that matches the hunter's hours. The device provides multiple food enclosures, a scent dispenser, and a timer. The timer causes one of the food enclosures to be opened at each set interval, and dispenses a scent to signal the bear that "dinner is served". The food enclosure which is opened will preferably only remain open for a limited time interval, for exemplary purposes one hour, so that the wild bear must be present at the scheduled time. Consequently, food is accessible only for one hour each day. The food enclosures are configured to allow a varied diet to be provided for the bear to keep him interested.

Title: Differential geometry-based method and apparatus for measuring polarization mode dispersion vectors in optical fibers
Inventor: LU CHAO
IPC: H04B10/18
Filed: 2005-09-07
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for determining the first and second order polarization mode dispersion (PMD) vectors of an optical device, such as a single mode optical fiber, using only a single input polarization state. This is achieved by passing light beams having a fixed polarization state and frequencies that vary over a range through the optical device that is being tested. The output polarization states of the light beams that have passed through the optical device are measured, and used to form a curve in Stokes space on a Poincare sphere. The shape of this curve is used to approximate the first and second order (and possibly higher order) PMD vectors, using formulas based on differential geometry.

Title: Dynamic bandwidth allocation for multiple access communications using buffer urgency factor
Inventor: PROCTOR JAMES A JR
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 1999-05-26
Abstract: A.technique for providing high speed data service over standard wireless connections via an unique integration of protocols and existing cellular signaling, such as is available with Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) type systems through more efficient allocation of access to CDMA channels. For example, when more users exist than channels, the invention determines a set of probabilities for which users will require channel access at which times, and dynamically assigns channel resources accordingly. Channel resources are allocated according to a buffer monitoring scheme provided on forward and reverse links between a base station and multiple subscriber units. Each buffer is monitored over time for threshold levels of data to be transmitted in that buffer. For each buffer, a probability is calculated that indicates how often the specific buffer will need to transmit data and how much data will be transmitted. This probability takes into account the arrival rates of data into the buffer, as well as which thresholds within the buffer are exceeded, as well as which resources in the form of channels are already allocated to the subscriber unit.

Title: System and method for monitoring and responding to device conditions
Inventor: MULLIN TERENCE J
IPC: G09B19/00
Filed: 2005-10-12
Abstract: A system and method for monitoring and responding to device conditions is provided. A content server monitors sensed conditions of a device. Upon detection of an action-triggering condition, such as an error in the device, the content server accessed databases containing information pertaining to the monitored device in order to determine the nature of the error. When the error is identified, a database including a library of instructional content is accessed and the content server selects appropriate instructional content to enable a user to resolve the issue that prompted the error condition. Once the content server has chosen the correct instructional media, the content is delivered to a device client comprising a display screen at or adjacent the monitored device. Preferably, the instructional media comprises full motion video so that the device user simply copies what is seen on the display in order to resolve the issue. Action-triggering conditions can also include issues such as maintenance needs, training conditions, and user help requests.
