Title: Lock-up control device
Inventor: FUKUCHI MASAMITSU
IPC: B60W30/19
Filed: 1998-09-15
Abstract: A lock-up control device is provided to control engaging force of a lock-up clutch, which shares engine output with a torque converter to transmit it toward an input shaft of a transmission of a car. Now, target driving force is produced based on accelerator pedal opening and car velocity. Then, required torque is produced based on a gear ratio and the target driving force. Target engine speed is produced based on the required torque, wherein the target engine speed is set to avoid occurrence of abnormal sounds and abnormal vibrations. Thus, the lock-up clutch is controlled in such a way that real engine speed does not become lower than the target engine speed in case of a gear change corresponding to a shift-up operation, for example. Basically, the lock-up clutch is controlled to have engaging force, which is made as maximal as possible to improve fuel efficiency. In other words, the lock-up clutch is controlled to be as tightly as possible. Or, the lock-up clutch which is initially set at a tight state is turned off just after the gear change start timing if it is predicted that the real engine speed after the gear change will become lower than the target engine speed.

Patent CA-2288270-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOKKANEN TUOMO
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 1998-04-14
Abstract: In the future, stricter standards regarding the microwave radiation emitted by mobile telephones will be applied. Therefore, in the worst case, the transmission power of mobile telephone systems will have to be reduced, which will affect the quality of service. However, it would be unreasonable to reduce the transmission power of all mobile stations. Therefore, the object of the invention is to create e.g. in the GSM system a property that allows a mobile station to be used at a power level consistent with the safety standards. The invention makes it possible to distinguish between different mobile stations e.g. on the basis of their IMSI and/or IMEI codes. According to the invention, data substantially relating to the transmission power of the mobile station are stored in the mobile communication network separately for each mobile station; device data identifying the mobile station are received in the mobile communication network in conjunction with call setup; the transmission power data for the mobile station are checked and the transmission power of the mobile station is controlled on the basis of a predetermined power control algorithm and the device data for the mobile station.

Title: Combination process for enhanced light olefin production
Inventor: MARKER TERRY L
IPC: C07C4/06
Filed: 2000-01-18
Abstract: The production of light olefins is enhanced with a catalytic reaction zone containing small pore zeolitic and non-zeolitic catalysts which can significantly improve the yield of ethylene and propylene in a process for the conversion of light olefins having four carbon atoms per molecule and heavier. Specifically, a C4 olefin stream from an ethylene production complex is converted in a reaction zone over a non-zeolitic catalyst at effective conditions to produce a product mixture containing ethylene and propylene.  Ethylene and propylene are separated from the product mixture and recovered. A portion of the remaining heavy hydrocarbons and paraffins may be recycled to the reaction zone for further conversion, or oligomerized to produce valuable downstream products. The additional step of removing iso-olefins from the recycle stream provided significant advantages. The combination process of the present invention may be applied in commercial ethylene plants, in petroleum refining catalytic cracking operations, and in processes for the conversion of oxygenates such as methanol-to-olefins to enhance the production of ethylene and propylene.
Patent CA-2298320-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NEASE GREG ALAN
IPC: H01P5/12
Filed: 2000-02-10
Abstract: A high power combmer arrangement with improved isolation between input ports for high power applications. In particular, in accordance with high power combiner arrangement, power combining logic is combined with a series of isolators such that at least one isolator is inserted between each power source, i.e., a signal source, and a corresponding input port to the power combining logic. The number of isolators inserted is determined as a function of the isolation requirements of the overall application. Advantageously, the degree of isolation achieved by the high power combiner is directly proportional to the number of inserted isolators placed between each power source. Furthermore, the insertion of a number of high power circulators between each power source and the power combing logic facilitates the achievement of higher isolation between the power sources with minimal degradation in signal characteristics.

Title: Success-to-the top class of service routing
Inventor: FISHMAN SAUL DANIEL
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2000-02-24
Abstract: An originating switch (110) in a packet-based telecommunications network (100) routes calls to a terminating switch using the combination of Success-to-the Top (STT) and Class-of Service criteria. In routing a call to the terminating switch, the originating switch 110 checks for available bandwidth for the class of service of the call on the direct path (116) between switches. If the path has available bandwidth, the originating switch routes on the direct path. Otherwise , the originating switch searches for the most recently successful one of a plurality the via switches (1181-118") linking the originating and terminating switches to determine whether that via switch can successfully route the call to the terminating switch. If the most recently successful one of the via switches possesses available bandwidth to route the call in accordance with its class of service, the originating switch 110 selects that via switch to route the call. Otherwise, if the most-recently successful via switch can not route the call, the originating switch 110 searches for a next successful via switch. If none of the via switches 118 1-118n can successfully route the call in accordance with its class of service, the originating switch will either attempt a route advance or crank back the call.
