Abstract: The ski stadium has an angled surface to represent a ski piste. A number of snow generators, at intervals, deliver snow to the piste surface, and a number of air cooler fans keep the interior of the stadium at a low temperature. A number of pipes (5), carrying a coolant flow, are laid on the piste surface. Protectors (9,10) are between the pipes, anchored to the piste surface and projecting over the cooling pipes to protect them from damage.

Abstract: A safety PLC which is a master is connected to a safety slave (2) via a safety network (3), thereby constituting a network system. The safety slave includes a non-safety information storage block (26) for storing individual information and state information of a safety device connected. The state information monitors the state of the safety device in operation and updates the storage content according to the monitoring result. When the non-safety information satisfies a predetermined condition, non-safety information at least satisfying the condition is transmitted to the safety PLC. This processing is performed by an MPU (23). Thus, there is need of transmitting unnecessary non-safety information.

Abstract: A quick paging channel (QPCH) is used to receive paging indicators that indicate that a wireless communication device (WCD) has a message on a paging channel relating to, for example, an incoming call to the WCD. When the condition of the quick paging channel is too low to receive paging indicators reliably, the quick paging channel is disabled to avoid false alarms, and the slotted paging channel is used to receive paging messages without monitoring the QPCH. When the QPCH signal is strong, the probability of false alarms is lower, and the quick paging channel is enabled. By using the quick paging channel to receive paging indicators only when the QPCH signal is strong, the wireless communication device can remain in a sleep state for greater periods of time as compared with the use of a slotted paging channel. As a result, standby time may be significantly improved.

Abstract: System and method to determine the location of a receiver are provided. The received signal is decomposed into signal chunks that are then correlated with the reference signals of the transmitting sources. In some embodiments, the signal chunks may be shorter than the period of the reference signals. For each signal source, a grid of correlation values is constructed containing one column of correlation values for each signal chunk. Each column contains correlation values for several code-phases. Probes are executed in the grid to acquire the location-determining signals. In some embodiments, a probe includes calculating the fourier transform of a row in the grid, yielding correlation values associated with a refined set of frequency values. Potential acquisitions are verified by processing increasing portions of the received signal. Confirmed acquisition may be used to aid further acquisitions. Some embodiments eventually compress the received signal down to a one period duration by means of an ultra-stacking method. Additional verification, comprising multi-peak test and multi-path tests, may be performed on the correlation magnitude curve obtained from the ultra-stacked signal. Finally, refined code-phase values are extracted from these correlation magnitude curves.

Abstract: A powered air cleaning system ( 1 ) and air cleaning method are disclosed. The system has a flow path ( 22 ) extending through the system from an air inlet ( 4 ) to a clean air outlet ( 5 ). A motor-driven fan ( 24 ) located along the flow path draws particulate debris laden air into the inlet and rotates it about an axis (A-A) to form a rotating flow that stratifies the debris laden air with the heaviest particles in the outermost orbits of the rotating flow. An ejector port ( 25 ) is provided for ejecting particulate debris laden air from the stratified rotating flow in the system to the environment. An air filter ( 9 ) located within the rotating flow and across the flow path upstream of the outlet filters air from the innermost orbits of the stratified rotating flow. The motor-driven fan is operated to maintain a positive air pressure in the system on the filter even with cyclic air flow demands so that the rotating air flow continually sweeps the outside surface of the air filter to minimize buildup of debris on the filter.
