IPC: H04W36/32
Filed: 2007-10-15
Abstract: A mobile station and a method are provided for determining to perform a handover based on information of movement between cells. Signals transmitted from a serving base station and a neighboring station may be scanned at a periodic interval, the power of the transmitted signals may be measured, and the power of the transmitted signals from the serving base station is compared to a critical power. A movement discriminator denoting whether the mobile station lies in a cell of the serving station may be formed based on the power of the transmitted signals when the signal power of the serving base station is less than the critical power. The movement discriminator may be stored accumulatively, and performance of handover may be decided based on the discriminators stored accumulatively.

Abstract: The invention provides, in one aspect, a method of finding a rule in a rules base that includes a plurality of rule entries, each having a rule and an associated objective and one or more associated circumstances. A rule finder accesses the rules base in response to a request, with a specified objective and with specified circumstances, by searching the rules base for a matching entry. Where the search fails, the rule finder searches one or more translation tables for entries having first circumstances matching those specified in the request that resulted in the failure. If found, the rule finder repeats the search of the rules base with the specified objective and with a second (or "map-to") circumstances from matching entries in the translation tables. The rule finder can return, e.g., to an application program that issued the request, a rule found during that repeat search of the rules base.

Abstract: A vehicle state tracker tracks the state of a vehicle during a diagnostic test sequence to eliminate redundant steps between diagnostic procedures. The vehicle state tracker maintains a list of preconditions required for each diagnostic procedure, reads a current vehicle state from a memory register and verifies the current setting of the vehicle state corresponding to a specific precondition. If the precondition is required and the current setting is not valid, the state tracker further formats a test preparation step corresponding to the precondition for display to instruct a vehicle technician to satisfy the precondition. Otherwise, if the precondition is not required and the corresponding setting is valid, the state tracker formats an instruction to reverse the corresponding vehicle condition. The state tracker additionally receives feedback indicating when a precondition has been satisfied or the corresponding vehicle condition has been reversed, and updates the vehicle state in memory.

Abstract: In order to effect drilling without any risk of blockage of the cutting tool used, a drilling device uses means for producing a self-maintained axial vibration of the tool that has the effect of breaking up the swarf of the material removed from the hole in order to facilitate discharge thereof. The means for producing the self-maintained axial vibration are also such that the spindle of the tool can have a direction substantially different from the rotation axis of the means used for rotating the tool. Such a device is particularly advantageous for producing deep holes or during the use of cutting tools producing asymmetric cutting forces. In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the means for producing the self-maintained axial vibration and for enabling the rotation axis of the tool to have a direction substantially different from the rotation axis of the drive means form part of the cutting tool.
