Abstract: The present invention discloses a carrier selection method for reducing interferences between mobile stations and/or base stations. A measure associated with a probability for a mobile station, having access to at least two carrier duplex entities, to produce interferences with adjacent external spectrum blocks is obtained. A candidate carrier duplex entity is then selected based on the interference measure. If the measure is lower than a first threshold value an inner carrier duplex entity should be selected as candidate carrier duplex entity. A mobile station in idle mode then locks to a downlink carrier of the candidate carrier duplex entity upon locking into a system. Mobile stations in an idle locked mode relocks to the downlink carrier of the carrier duplex entity, whereas mobile stations in an active mode perform a carrier handover to the candidate carrier duplex entity, unless already locked thereto.

Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for producing an extremely fine micron and sub-micron size water mist using an electronic ultrasonic device that produces the mist at ambient-pressure and delivering the mist for application in suppressing fire. A piezoelectric transducer is arranged to produce a water mist having at least a portion of sub-micron size droplets. The water mist is produced by high frequency pressure waves or ultrasonic waves of predetermined or variable frequency, including frequencies which may exceed 2.5 MHz. The water mist is directed to a firebase to be self-entrained by the fire's flame. The momentum provided the water mist in directing the mist is minimized to enhance the ability of the fire to entrain the mist, and the flow of the carrier medium is usually directed tangentially about the water fountain creating the mist. Further, the throughput and concentration of the mist is controlled to ensure that the entrained mist will be sufficient to cool and suppress the fire. The water mist may be effectively utilized for mitigating blast and reducing over pressures. The fine water mist may also be utilized for humidification because of its fast vaporization and efficient cooling behavior. The apparatus may be modified in its physical design and direction of output, and the method may be modified by adjusting the throughput of mist, composition of mist, concentration of mist, and momentum of mist, whereby fire may be suppressed under many different scenarios.

Abstract: A method for estimating a transmission channel from a multicarrier signal transmitted through said transmission channel, comprising real pilot symbols and so-called pure imaginary pilot symbols, consists in selecting one or several values z<SUB>k </SUB>of the received signal corresponding respectively to one or several real pilot symbols, and one or several values z<SUB>l </SUB>of the received signal corresponding respectively to one or several pure imaginary pilot symbols. The pilot symbols are sufficiently close both in frequency and in time such that it can be assumed that the fading of the signal through the transmission channel has a complex value alpha substantially identical for the symbols. An estimated value {circumflex over (alpha)} of alpha for the pilot symbols concerned is then determined by minimizing a least square equation involving the values z<SUB>k </SUB>and the values z<SUB>l</SUB>.

Abstract: A method for protecting the transfer and storage of data by encryption using a private key encrypted with a first key encrypting key, which is encrypted using a second key encrypting key. This latter key is encrypted using a hashed passphrase value, obtained by hashing a passphrase known only to the authorized user. Upon receipt of a request initiated by the user by entering a passphrase, a first hashed passphrase is transferred to a first data processing system, where it is compared with a predefined hash string. If they match, the first data processing system transfers to a second data processing system the encrypted second key encrypting key. A candidate key is obtained by decrypting the encrypted second key encrypting key using a second hashed passphrase. Upon successful validation of the candidate key, the passphrase is verified and the user is authenticated. After the user has been authenticated, the first data processing system transmits to the second data processing system the encrypted private key and the encrypted data. The second processing system then decrypts the encrypted first key encrypting key using the second key encrypting key, decrypts the encrypted private key using the first key encrypting key and finally decrypts the data using the private key. <IMAGE>
