Patent AU-7495400-A (AU)
Title: Modified finger assignment algorithm for high data rate calls
Inventor: AMERGA MESSAY
IPC: H04W36/38
Filed: 2000-09-14
Abstract: A method and communication system for assigning the plurality of fingers to demodulation paths in a path list which insures that at least one finger will be assigned to a demodulation path supporting a supplemental channel, if one exists. The method involves determining whether any of the fingers is demodulating a supplemental channel (112). When no fingers are demodulating supplemental channels, the it is determined whether the sector containing the path under consideration supports supplemental channels (114). If the sector containing the path under consideration supports supplemental channels, then the method determines the strength of the signal path relative to the weakest finger (116). If the path is a certain amount greater in strength then the weakest finger, then the method involves reassigning that finger to the path with the supplemental channel (108) and if the path with the supplemental channel is a certain amount of strength weaker than the weakest finger plus a certain value, then the method involves determining whether the weakest finger is the only one supporting the supplemental channel (118). If the weakest finger is the only one supporting supplemental channels, and the sector supports supplemental channels (120), then that finger is assigned to the demodulation path with the supplemental channel (108), thus insuring that the information on a supplemental channel is always demodulated by a finger during a soft-handoff in a high data rate call if one or more fingers are already demodulating supplemental channels, then the finger assignment algorithm will proceed in the conventional way.

Abstract: A measured-value sensor for an inductive flowmeter comprises a fluid impermeable sintered ceramic measuring tube adapted to be positioned in a conductive-liquid flow path. Magnetic coils surround the tube and are adapted to apply a magnetic field to a conductive liquid traversing the path. A pair of diametrically opposite measuring electrodes contact the liquid traversing the path for tapping an induced voltage across the electrodes representing the flow of the liquid along the path, each of the electrodes having a metallic shaft traversing the tube substantially radially and sealingly sintered to the material of the tube. The ends of the ceramic measuring tube are provided with a flange, ground at its peripheral wall surface and fastened by shrinkage stress in a bore of a steel casing.
