Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil d'interface adaptatif permettant d'interfacer un appareil téléphonique tel qu'un téléphone analogique, un modem, un modem fax, un dispositif de téléconférence par télécopie, un casque, une voix sur IP ou un téléphone numérique non compatible sur un système téléphonique numérique, analogique ou hybride, tel qu'un autocommutateur privé (PBX). Le dispositif d'interface convient à plusieurs variétés d'autocommutateurs privés produits par différents fabricants, en dépit des différences de caractéristiques de signalisation entre l'autocommutateur privé et un téléphone associé compatible avec cet autocommutateur privé. Le dispositif d'interface est connecté entre un appareil téléphonique et un autocommutateur privé. Afin de communiquer, le dispositif d'interface 'apprend' les caractéristiques de l'appareil téléphonique et celles de l'autocommutateur privé. A cet effet, on détermine si un composant du système téléphonique est un dispositif analogique ou numérique; et, si le système est numérique et surveille les communications entre l'autocommutateur privé et le système téléphonique compatible avec l'autocommutateur privé. Ensuite, pour configurer le dispositif d'interface en fonction de chaque protocole approprié, on extrait une série de paramètres de fonctionnement parmi une pluralité de séries pré-stockées dans une mémoire à l'intérieur du dispositif d'interface. Cette technique d'apprentissage permet au dispositif d'interface de s'adapter automatiquement aux variations de caractéristiques de signalisation entre l'autocommutateur privé et le système téléphonique compatible avec l'autocommutateur privé qui se présentent entre les différents fabricants.

Abstract: Cette invention porte sur un agencement d'accès réseau permettant de connecter à l'Internet (12) l'ordinateur d'un usager. Cet agencement comprend un serveur d'accès réseau (16) et un serveur mandataire (24). Lorsque l'usager demande la connexion Internet (12), le serveur d'accès réseau (16) retransmet la demande au serveur mandataire (24) qui authentifie lui-même certaines demandes, mais fait authentifier d'autres demandes par des serveurs d'authentification (A, B ou C). A la réception d'une réponse de l'un de ces serveurs (A, B ou C), le serveur mandataire (24) retransmet au serveur d'accès réseau (16) les réponses. Si le serveur mandataire (24) ne reçoit pas de réponse de l'un des serveurs d'authentification (A, B ou C), il mène une procédure implicite qui peut aboutir à l'authentification de la demande auprès du serveur mandataire (24) ou simplement à l'acceptation de la demande. Le serveur mandataire (24) comporte un compteur qui est associé à chacun des serveurs (A, B ou C). Chaque fois que le serveur mandataire (24) reçoit une réponse de l'un des serveurs (A, B ou C), il fait -1 sur le compteur approprié. Chaque fois qu'il ne reçoit pas de réponse, il fait +1 sur le compteur approprié. Lorsque l'un des compteurs atteint une valeur de seuil, le serveur mandataire (24) mène une procédure implicite pendant le nombre défini de demandes qui devraient normalement être retransmises au serveur approprié. Après avoir mené la procédure implicite pour ce nombre défini de demandes d'accès, le serveur mandataire (24) retransmet à ce serveur les demandes d'accès suivantes qui seraient normalement retransmises au serveur approprié.

Abstract: The performance of a RAKE receiver for indoor multipath WLAN applications on direct
sequence spread spectrum signals having relatively short codeword lengths comprises a
channel-matched filter and codeword correlator front end, plus a signal combiner to which the
codeword correlation component is applied. The signal combiner is supplied with a bias-corrected
input calculated by a distorted codeword signature (power) generator, which is
operative to generate and store a set of N codeword power correction values. The signal
combiner combines correction values into the codeword correlation for each potentially
transmitted codeword S k . This serves to correct each correlation codeword metric by a de-biasing
power component |S k | 2  for the unequal multipath-based distortions of the codeword
energies. The output of the signal combiner is coupled to a peak detector, which selects a
minimum distance-based 'de-biased' output as the transmitted codeword.

Abstract: The present invention relates to cationically charge-modified membranes and methods of
preparing such membranes. In one major aspect of the invention, the membranes are hydrophobic
membranes that are treated with one or more polymeric wetting agents to render the membranes
substantially hydrophilic, followed by treatment with one or more charge-modifying agents, the agents
causing the membranes to possess a fixed formal positive charge. In another major aspect of the
invention, a cationic membrane is formed from casting in a film a mixed polymer solution comprising a
sulfone polymer and a copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and a cationic imidazolinium compound, and
quenching the film in an aqueous bath to produce a coagulated membrane. The membrane can be
further cationically charge-modified with one or more charge-modifying agents.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a free falling tower which is added with a thrill, is, in addition, extremely diversified in courses and more particularly is changeable in designs (even at a relatively narrow site). SOLUTION: This free falling tower for a roller coaster includes nearly perpendicular or exactly perpendicular rail systems for passenger units (the units move from the bottom end to the top end of the tower). From this place, the passenger units can fall by gravity and in succession, arrive at the courses of the roller coaster. In the region at the top end of the tower, the fixed passenger unit are rotated around a nearly perpendicular or exactly perpendicular axis and such passenger units can eventually fall by gravity on the other rails of the tower. Consequently, the fresh final boarding effect may be obtained in combination with the course of the roller coaster, more particularly the second tower of a similar structure.

Abstract: Of (A+B) signal and (C+D) signal for detecting a radial
push-pull signal, the (A+B) signal is multiplied with a
predetermined coefficient  k . The predetermined coefficient
 k  is changed appropriately depending on an error rate upon
decoding a land pre-pit, a lens shift amount of an objective
lens of an optical pickup (2), and the levels of a land pre-pit
signal and a wobbling signal relative to the level of (A+B+C+D)
signal. Consequently, the land pre-pit on an optical disc
can be detected securely at a high precision at any time of
recording time and reproduction time.

Abstract: A telecommunications network system (10), formed of multiple interconnected
nodes (16-22, 26-34, 50-58), is shown in FIG. 1. At least some of the nodes are
provided with application spaces (DPASs, 70-94) into which specific programs
can be downloaded and run. The application space (DPASs, 70-94), realised by
control logic and memory, takes control of managing specific programs and
reporting results arising from execution of the specific programs. The application
spaces support specific functionality dependent upon the functionality of the
node, and support real-time downloading and running of code. Resultant data
acquired from running the specific programs is correlated between nodes to
produce highly pertinent management data that is communicated to a
management device, such as an OMC (48), for analysis and fault
identification/performance optimisation. Execution of code at specific nodes,
followed by shuffling of the code to interconnected nodes, allows operational
assessment of successive nodes and interconnecting paths, with correlation of
results limiting management data communicated to the management device.
Another embodiment provides for the shuffling of test code between nodes, with
any inability either to execute code or to generate a predetermined response
considered to be indicative of a fault at either that node or at a connection path
coupled thereto.
