Patent EP-1111508-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WALTER FABRICE
IPC: G01R31/3183
Filed: 1999-12-23
Abstract: The integrated circuit is provided with integrated calibrating circuit in order to calibrate at least one electronic module supplying at its output a reference voltage or a time base signal or a reference frequency signal. Said calibrating means are defined by a microcontroller which receives via an input pad of the integrated circuit an external reference signal which is compared to an internal reference signal of the reference module in order to be able to calibrate in an autonomous manner the integrated reference electronic module as a function of the external reference signal. The final calibrating parameters are permanently stored with an associated signature in a memory so that each time that voltage is subsequently applied to the circuit the final calibrating parameters are automatically applied to the corresponding reference module.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the rate control
system of a TCP layer in communications conducted
between terminals 1 and 3 via a base station 2 using
a wireless link. An object of the present invention
is to avoid the fruitless reduction of throughput in
communications conducted via a wireless link. If the
discard of a packet transmitted from the base station
2 to the terminal 3 via a wireless link is detected
when the packet is transmitted from the terminal 1 to
the terminal 3, the base station or terminal 3 is
provided with means for notifying the terminal 1 of
a wireless packet discard using a TCP layer. The
terminal 1 is configured in such a way that if the
wireless packet discard notification is received, a
TCP layer control unit 10 does not exercise slow-start
control at the time of re-transmission and re-transmits
the discarded packet at a rate adopted
before the reception of the notification.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling telephone voting in a digital mobile communication network that includes a plurality of mobile subscriber communication stations provides for automated, statistically-appropriate control of telephonic voting via such mobile stations. Using a polling server, a predetermined initial proportion of the mobile stations is authorized to concurrently transmit a vote by transmitting a voting authorization to the authorized mobile stations over a control channel from the polling server. A voting application stored in or associated with each mobile station monitors the control channel and enables transmission of a vote from a mobile station only after the authorization has been received by that mobile station. The invention thereby accommodates and assures the staggered transmission of votes in a telephonic poll so as to avoid overloading of the network.

Abstract: A battery protection device includes an upper foil electrode laminated to the upper surface of a conductive polymer PTC layer, and a lower foil electrode laminated to the lower surface of the PTC layer. An isolated portion of the lower electrode is formed by creating an annular isolation gap in the lower electrode. A first via is formed through the upper electrode, the PTC layer, and the isolated portion of the lower electrode. The diameter of the first via is smaller than the diameter of the isolated electrode portion, so that an annular area of the isolated electrode portion is left between the opening and the isolation gap. The internal wall surface of the first via and the annular electrode area are plated with a conductive metallization layer, which forms a first contact seat that is conductively connected by the metallized surface of the first via with the upper electrode. A first contact element is fixed to the first contact seat. An area of the lower electrode, spaced from the isolated portion, is metal-plated. A second via is formed through the upper electrode, the PTC layer, and the metal-plated area of the lower electrode, with an opening in the metal-plated area. The diameter of the second via is smaller than that of the metal-plated area, so that a second contact seat is defined around the opening of the second via in the metal-plated area, to which a second contact element is fixed.

Abstract: The invention comprises the dynamic compression of an audio signal for enhancing the subjective impression of this signal in the presence of noise: the compression of the dynamic of a signal in fact corresponds to a multiplication of each sample of this signal by a gain that depends on the amplitude of said sample. The proposed compression method is completely adaptive, because it comprises a step of selecting a compression law from various possible laws as a function of the measured noise. This selection step takes into account the level of the local noise (Ni) and of the remote noise (Nr), that is, the noise contained in the received audio signal. Application: Notably mobile telephony.
