Title: Golf club head with high center of gravity
Inventor: SCHWEIGERT BRADLEY D
IPC: A63B53/02
Filed: 2005-03-17
Abstract: A golf club head is formed of a hollow metal body having a center of gravity that is above the geometric center of the club face. The hollow metal body of the club head has a sole plate that is smoothly contoured and devoid of any inefficient structures such as weight pads or other mass concentrations. By avoiding the use of inefficient structures such as weight pads, more material is available for the structural walls of the club head body while maintaining the club head within acceptable weight limitations. Moreover, placement of the center of gravity above the center line of the face ensures that sufficient backspin will be imparted to the golf ball when struck by the club.

Title: The copy protection of optical discs
Inventor: HEYLEN RICHARD A A
IPC: G11B20/14
Filed: 2004-01-23
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of copy protecting optical discs, such as CD-ROMs. Instead of encoding data onto the CD-ROMs in a manner which ensures balanced dc content, for copy protection the digital data is encoded and recorded onto the optical disc such that it is arranged to give some of the recorded digital data unbalanced dc content. Thus, for example, the DSV  value of the encoded data may be changed rapidly in less than (100) frames to (Figure 9). For an area of digital data on the optical disc in which the DSV  has been caused to rise steeply (Figure 10a), heavy distortions in audio arise (Figure 10c) during an attempt to copy an audio track including the single segment of unbalanced dc content.

Inventor: ATTAR RASHID AHMED AKBAR
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2004-04-12
Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining the data rate of a reverse link communication of an access terminal includes receiving a reverse activity bit (RAB) from an access network in the communication system, and passing the RAB  to multiple digital filters to produce filtered RABs. The reverse link data rate is determined based on these filtered values of the RABs. From the filtered RAB values a continuous fluid power level is determined for each rate update. The access terminal maps the continuous fluid power level to actual physical transmissions by dithering among discrete power levels allowed by the physical layer.
