Abstract: In a vacuum pump according to the invention, the rotor is held inside the stator by radial magnetic bearings, and its radial movements are limited by one or more landing mechanical bearings each made up of a rotor rolling bearing race and a stator rolling bearing race. At least one coaxial ring of elastomer in the shape of a torus is inserted between the outside peripheral surface of the stator rolling bearing race and the stator itself to constitute a damped elastic connection which significantly increases the reliability and the service life of the landing mechanical bearing.

Abstract: The invention offers a method of estimating the channel parameters of a co-channel interferer. Initial, rough estimates of the desired channel and of the desired data symbols are made, and a fraction of the estimated desired signal is subtracted from the received signal. The fraction depends on the uncertainty of the desired signal. The synchronisation position of the co-channel interferer is determined, which is used to reject the co-channel interference. In a pre-processing stage only rough estimates of the desired transmission channel and of the desired data symbols are needed. Consequently, a much faster convergence of the algorithm used for detecting the co-channel interference results. When the co-channel interference signal has been detected, it can be eliminated by any suitable method. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a multiplex transmission device that compresses, multiplexes and transmits a signal, such as a voice signal, a facsimile signal and a speech data signal. The signaling signals corresponding to various types of signaling systems are detected, and the operation of an echo canceler during signaling is controlled. The control of the echo canceller allows normal transmission of signaling signals, and thus the communication between multiplex transmission devices is established, and signal transmission is allowed after signaling.

Abstract: Disclosed is a novel method and system for efficiently synchronizing, transmitting, and receiving data between a base station and a plurality of customer premises. A MAC coprocessor (MCP) (402) is implemented, which works in conjunction with the MAC (410) in order to produce a robust, high throughput communication system. The MAC coprocessor (402) performs many of the tasks typically performed by prior art MAC's, including: during a downlink, storing a data frame, sorting the data frame according to modulation type or other criteria, determining when the data frame is full, and appending a set of CPE settings to the data frame. During an uplink, the MAC coprocessor (402) receives all data and routes the data either to the MAC (410) or a network backhaul. A MAC coprocessor (402) may be used in both the base station and Customer Premises. In both the downlink and uplink processes, having a MAC coprocessor working in conjunction with the MAC may significantly increase the communication system's throughput.
