Title: Enabling MTC devices to communicate using LTE-type networks
Inventor: BEALE MARTIN WARWICK
IPC: H04W4/70
Filed: 2011-12-19
Abstract: A method for communicating data between a base station and a terminal device in a wireless telecommunications system is described, for example an LTE-based system. The wireless communication system uses a plurality of frequency sub-carriers spanning a system frequency band. Physical-layer control information for the terminal device is transmitted from the base station using sub-carriers selected from across the system frequency band, for example to provide frequency diversity. However, higher-layer data for the terminal device is transmitted using only sub-carriers selected from within a restricted frequency band which is smaller than and within the system frequency band. The terminal device is aware of the restricted frequency band, and as such need only buffer and process data within this restricted frequency band during periods where higher-layer data is being transmitted. The terminal device buffers and processes the full system frequency band during periods when physical-layer control information is being transmitted. Thus, a terminal device may be incorporated in a network in which physical-layer control information is transmitted over a wide frequency range, but only needs to have sufficient memory and processing capacity to process a smaller range of frequencies for the higher-layer data.

Title: Passive heat transfer from a vehicle passenger using a heat pipe
Inventor: SELIM MOHAMED YOUNES EL-SAGHIR
IPC: B60H1/32
Filed: 2012-03-02
Abstract: A heat transfer device for passively transferring heat from the passenger compartment of a vehicle to ambient air outside the vehicle has a heat pipe with a sealed tube 12 having a proximal evaporator end 22 and a distal condenser end 20, a heat transport fluid biased by gravity within the proximal end 22, and an internal structure (e.g. capillary wick 14) to transport the fluid from the distal end to the proximal end. A method of determining an optimal structure of such a heat transfer device involves determining an amount of heat to remove from the vehicle as a function of the vehicle physical characteristics and the meteorological characteristics of the region where the vehicle is to be operated, selecting an appropriate heat transfer fluid (e.g. Diethyl ether DEE) as a function thereof, configuring the internal structure of each sealed tube for maximizing transport of the chosen heat transport fluid, and determining an optimal number and optimal dimensions of the sealed tubes for maximizing heat transfer.

Title: Triangulation of pavement deflections using more than four sensors
Inventor: ULLIDTZ PER
IPC: E01C23/01
Filed: 2010-10-18
Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide improved non-destructive testing of pavements and in particular non-destructive testing of pavements using rolling wheel deflectometer systems having more than four sensors. The additional sensors more accurately detect pavement deflections under load by compensating for the influence the load deflection basin can have on sensors beyond those at the wheel load. The sensors should be spaced with equal distances from the rolling weight and can have a distance between adjacent sensors that is greater than the equivalent thickness of the pavement being measured.

Title: Absorbent article having aysmmetric printed patterns for providing a functional cue
Inventor: BRYANT KRISTI
IPC: A61F13/472
Filed: 2010-11-30
Abstract: A feminine care absorbent article that contains multiple printed patterns of graphical objects visible from a body facing surface is provided. The layout and design of the patterns are carefully selected in the present invention to achieve a synergistic masking effect that helps visually disguise the presence of bodily fluids or stains around the periphery of the article. Such "passive" stain masking is achieved, in part, through the use of printed patterns that are distributed in an asymmetric manner about both the longitudinal and transverse centerlines of the article. Among other things, the asymmetrical nature of the patterns allows the color of the bodily fluids to better blend with the visual nature of the patterns, and also draws the user's focus away from the areas in which any stains are located. The printed patterns are also located at or near the periphery of the article and at least partially extend into portions of the body facing surface that overlie the absorbent core. Once again, this partial overlap into the absorbent core region helps further improve the capacity of the article to "passively" mask stains. The pattern design is also such that a majority of an interior zone of the absorbent article is generally free of printed graphical objects. In addition to providing the user the ability to better detect the presence of bodily fluids during use, the absence of printed objects in certain areas of the article also further enhances the overall distinctive nature of the patterns.
