Patent AU-4609993-A (AU)
Title: Carrier offset tracking for a receiver using channel impulse response
Inventor: PARR MICHAEL I
IPC: H04W88/02
Filed: 1993-09-03
Abstract: The present invention provides for an equalization method that forms the nucleus of a receiver for digital cellular mobile telephones. A number of distinct aspects of the design are considered novel, including non-real time operation that permits and exploits "time-reversed" equalization to significantly enhance bit error rate performance. The present invention employs the use of a maximum likelihood sequence estimation process. It uses variable coefficient least mean square tracking during estimation of the transmission channel's impulse response. It also employs the use of integrated symbol timing adjustment and carrier tracking algorithms. Time-reversed operation further enhances performance and permits implementation with reasonable complexity of a standards compliant mobile receiver.

Date Mar. 17, 1994Apparatus for the automatic fuelling of vehicles. A robot head that carries a fuel filler tube is movable to enable it to be brought into position to engage with a vehicle fuel-tank pipe. The robot head carries an opening device for opening a fuel-tank cover plate of a vehicle. The positioning of the robot head is effected by a positioning system that includes a transceiver unit carried by the robot head and that preferably operates at microwave frequency. A passive transponder is carried by the vehicle and includes a simple code which the transponder is intended to modulate on a signal transmitted by the transceiver and is reflected by the transponder. The signal received by the transceiver from the transponder is decoded and is used to access a robot head movement plan that corresponds with that code, to automatically steer the robot head to the fuel tank pipe and thereby enable the vehicle to be fuelled.

This process is suited, in particular, for transmitting the five channels of 3/2 stereophony as well as for transmitting two stereo channels and three additional commentary channels. In this manner, by way of illustration, television programs with multi-language audio signals can be transmitted. This process is distinguished in that by reduction of the to-be-transmitted data, only a bit rate of 384 kbit/s is required for transmission. The reduction of the data is achieved by the K input channels being imaged in segments onto the N</=K virtual spectral data channels, by the spectral data channels being quantized, coded, and transmitted taking into consideration the principles of psychoacoustics, and by K output channels being reproduced from the transmitted bit stream with the aid of a transmitted list from the N</=K spectral data channels.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/02194 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 24, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 24, 1997 PCT Filed May 22, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/37566 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 28, 1996The proposed process for bonding together two substrates with an anhydrous or low-water-content partially crystalline adhesive which is solid at room temperature is characterized in that the adhesive is first activated by internal and/or external friction. The substrates are then joined together with the adhesive between them. When allowed to stand, the structure attains its final strength after a period of between a few seconds to a few days. The friction destroys the crystalline structure and causes the adhesive to become gluey, and re-crystallization gives it its final strength and eliminates the gluey quality. The adhesive is based preferably on polyester or polyurethane and used preferably in the form of a gum stick without impermeable packaging. It is especially suitable for bonding paper, since it does not cause corrugation.

Title: Method and apparatus for soft tissue enlargement including mechanical soft tissue enlarger and vacuum dome
Inventor: KHOURI ROGER K
IPC: A61F5/03
Filed: 1996-08-19
Abstract: An apparatus and method for enlargement of soft tissue, such as breasts or a penis, is comprised of a dome (12) configured to fit over the area of desired augmentation. The dome has a rim (34) with a surface area sized to prevent excessive contact pressure to the skin when a suction force of sufficient magnitude to cause enlargement of the soft tissue is applied to the soft tissue by the dome. A dome for applying a vacuum to a patient's skin surface is comprised of a generally rigid dome capable of withstanding a pressure differential, with a rim cushion (46) underlying the rim of the dome for supporting a rim from the patient's skin surface. The rim may be generally wider than the dome in order to distribute the attendant forces across a greater surface and avoid tissue damage. A sticky sole underlies the rim cushion and seals the rim cushion to the patient's skin to thereby preserve the vacuum within the dome.
