Patent CA-2333744-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OKUBO YOSHIYUKI
IPC: H04W16/02
Filed: 2000-03-28
Abstract: A radio control section in a mobile station determines the type of communication either based on the contents of a control signal demodulated by a voice modulator/demodulator and a high-speed data modulator/demodulator or based on the state of connection of an external device (not shown) to I/O  terminals. The radio control section controls a switch so that modulation and demodulation may take place selectively in the modulator/demodulator for voice communications or in modulator/demodulator for high-speed data communications.  The mobile station thus selectively uses a radio line for voice communications or a radio line for high-speed data communications.

Patent CA-2352924-A1 (CA)
Title: Air purifier
Inventor: YU CHI-CHIN
IPC: B03C3/66
Filed: 2001-07-12
Abstract: An air purifier, which is mainly comprised of shell body, high-voltage electric sources, ionizing device, at least an electricity-conducting plate, and at least a set of metal filtering net set, wherein, the ionizing device and the metal filtering net set are connected to the high-voltage electric sources of same polarity. And, the electricity-conducting plates are spaced apart by the manner of appropriate distance and are arranged in parallel to the side surface of the metal filtering net set. By arranging the ionizing device at the position of air inlet, the air and micro-dusts sucked into the purifier are charged with charges. And, in the interior, by arranging a metal filtering net set comprised of at least one piece of charged metal filtering net, the charged micro-dusts in the air flowing through the metal filtering net set are expelled by the same polarity charges on the metal filtering net set and pushed toward the electricity-conducting plate located at the position adjacent to the air inlet. And, the charged micro-dusts are attracted by the different polarity charges and adsorbed onto the electricity-conducting plate to reach the function of purifying air. On the other hand, the charges produced by the high-voltage electricity sources are followed with the clean air and exhausted to the atmosphere through the air exit and combined again with the dust impurities to further process the air purification. And, applying the output of negative ion being larger than that of positive ion fulfills the function of removing the static charges accumulated by the outside circumstances and objects.
Patent CA-2353611-A1 (CA)
Title: Multi punctured fec technique
Inventor: WACHSMANN UDO
IPC: H03M13/23
Filed: 1999-12-04
Abstract: The present invention involves a forward error correction technique for use in wireless telecommunications systems, where a first convolutional coding scheme is applied to the bits in a first portion of a data block and a second convolutional coding scheme is applied to the bits in a second portion of the data block, and where the second portion of the data block may encompass a part of the data block or the entire data block, including the first portion.  The first and the second coding scheme may be implemented using the same convolutional coding scheme with a first and a second puncturing scheme respectively. While the first coding scheme employs a first code rate, the second coding scheme employs a second code rate that is higher than the first code rate. The higher rate makes it possible to incorporate the one or more tail bits into the second portion of the data block. In so doing, generation of additional symbols, such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing symbols, can be avoided.

Abstract: A method for preventing a restenosis within a vessel wall requires a medicament be delivered at predetermined locations into the vessel wall and allowed to subsequently disperse in a predetermined pattern. To deliver the medicament, a catheter with an expanding member is advanced into the vasculature of a patient until the expanding member is located as desired.      The expanding member is then expanded to force dispensers into the vessel wall to the proper depth. A medicament is then pumped through the dispensers to create a plurality of equally spaced, localized medicinal deliveries which subsequently disperse to medicate an annulus shaped volume within the vessel wall.

Title: One or all phases recloser control
Inventor: EGOLF WILLIAM M
IPC: H02H3/06
Filed: 2002-03-15
Abstract: A recloser trips on one phase for single-phase only fault conditions, or a ll phases for multi-phase fault conditions. During power delivery, the recloser  monitors the three phases of a power line (e.g., phases A, B, and C). If a fault is detected on one phase, then a timer is started and subsequently decremented. If the timer finishes counting down while the fault is still present, then it is determined if any  of the other two phases are timing a fault. If so, then all three phases are tripped; otherwise, only the faulted phase is tripped.
