Abstract: A frequency allocation method for allocating carrier frequencies to a plurality
of fixed beams in a cellular radio based transceiver station comprises maintaining
a reserve pool of carrier frequencies (100), such that any available carrier
frequency can be allocated to any fixed beam at any one time in order to deal
with capacity demands from mobile stations within an area covered by a fixed
beam (1002). A frequency allocation algorithm operates such as to allow a
plurality of transceivers to float anywhere across a plurality of fixed directional
beams. More carrier frequencies can be added to a beam to deal with increased
mobile station capacity demand. The occupancy of channels on the carrier
frequencies is continuously monitored, and the number of carrier frequencies per
beam is continuously monitored (1001, 1003), with the object of releasing unused
carrier frequencies to a reserve pool of carrier frequencies (1005), allowing redeployment
of unused carrier frequencies to other beams where necessary
(1004). Carrier frequencies are periodically "groomed" by assessing the number
of vacant channels on the carrier, and reallocating any un-utilized vacant
channels to other carrier frequencies. The grooming process can be constrained
to operate during natural gaps in speech, to avoid channel degradation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multimirror device
for rotating the polarization of an electromagnetic
signal, especially a light signal, through 90°, the
output ray having approximately the same direction as
the input ray. 
     This device is characterized in that it
comprises at least one combination (40) of three
mirrors (42, 44, 46) which are arranged in such a way
that a ray entering one of the mirrors at an angle of
incidence of 45° is reflected at the same angle off the
other mirrors, the polarization vector (V) of the
incident ray being presented in such a way with respect
to the mirrors that a reflection off one of the three
mirrors changes the direction of polarization while the
reflections off the other two mirrors does not change
this direction of polarization. Preferably, a plurality
of multiple-mirror combinations (40, 40', 40") is
provided on a sheet, each combination forming a pattern
which is repeated regularly, the patterns all having
identical shapes and sizes. 
     The invention may be applied to a projection

Title: Method for coding an audio signal
Inventor: HERRE JUERGEN
IPC: H04B1/66
Filed: 1998-03-13
Abstract: A method for coding or decoding an audio signal combines the advantages of TNS processing and noise substitution. A time-discrete audio signal is initially transformed to the frequency domain in order to obtain spectral values of the temporal audio signal. Subsequently, a prediction of the spectral values in relation to frequency is carried out in order to obtain spectral residual values. Within the spectral residual values, areas are detected encompassing spectral residual values with noise properties. The spectral residual values in the noise areas are noise-substituted, whereupon information concerning the noise areas and noise substitution is incorporated into side information pertaining to a coded audio signal. Thus, considerable bit savings in case of transient signals can be achieved.
