Filed: 2000-03-10
Abstract: An antenna for a mobile phone comprises a retractable whip element 7. A helical element 13 is attached to the top of whip 7 via an insulator 11. A further helical element 5 is fixed to the inside of the casing 1 of the mobile phone. When the whip is extended it is connected to the phone circuitry via helical element 5, and so both co-operate to form a fourth antenna element having an effective length of a quarter wavelength even when the whip antenna is shorter than this. In the retracted state (figure 5) the two helical elements 5, 13 are connected in series to form a fifth antenna element. Connections can be galvanic or capacitative (fig 15, 16, 17).

Inventor: ODA TOSHIYUKI
IPC: H04B1/40
Filed: 2000-10-11
Abstract: A radio communication apparatus capable of carrying out stable radio communication by preventing phase rotation at an output by the addition of a phase rotation compensation circuit, even when using the apparatus with a bypass (figs. 1,7) or on/off switching circuit (fig. 6). In a bypass circuit which bypasses the transmission final stage amplifier 6, a phase rotation compensating circuit, which includes a variable capacitance capacitor 9 and a coil 10, and whose cutoff frequency is adjustable by means of an adjustment voltage, is inserted in the middle of the bypass route. Preferably, in order to absorb individual variations in the transmission final stage amplifiers 6, the phase rotations for individual amplifiers are measured and stored in an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) 17. The apparatus can be used in changing the gain of the transmission final stage amplifier 6. A further embodiment shows the bypass path comprising a selection device, itself comprising a coil and a trip-line in parallel, which is operated to include either the coil or the strip-line depending on the phase compensation required.

Filed: 2001-05-22
Abstract: Street lighting status monitoring apparatus (1) comprises sensing means (10) mountable on a car, GPS receiver (20), electronic compass (30) and a computer (40). The sensing means comprises a telescopically extendable frame adapted to be mounted on the roof of a car and having left and right sensing arrangements.

The computer is configured to correlate positional data from throughout the specification GPS receiver (20) with information on the positions of street lighting on the database. If the sensor arrangements are at a position at which there is according to the database, a piece or pieces of street lighting then luminescence data from the sensors is further correlated with direction data from the electronic compass (30) and with data from the database on the type of street lighting and its direction from the sensors and it is determined whether or not the luminescence detected by each of the sensors is appropriate for the street lighting. The results of the correlation are stored on the hard disk (120) for subsequent use. The computer (40) also has data input means (110) for setting parameters such as the beginning and the end of a journey.

Title: Measuring device
Inventor: COX ROY GEORGE
IPC: G01B3/04
Filed: 2002-01-24
Abstract: When installing fitted furniture, such as kitchen worktops, the wall against which the worktop is to be fitted is often irregular and may contain obstacles such as power points or wooden beams. The problem this presents is ito measure and mark accurately around such irregularities in order to cut the worktop to ensure a snug fit against the wall. This is usually a time-consuming and difficult operation. My invention solves this problem in the following manner: position the worktop against the wall to which it is to be fitted, then measure the largest gap between the worktop and the wall. Assume this to be 3 cm. Place the aid on the worktop surface against the wall. Position a pencil or biro pen point through the hole marked 3 cm and simply move the aid along the worktop, keeping it parallel to the wall. The pencil line on the worktop will be an accurate copy of the wall and only takes a few seconds. In order to draw the line in left-hand sides, the aid is reversable so simply turn it over and replace the pencil in the same hole and complete the line. The aid can be used for fitted wardrobes or cupboards or any situation where fitting work against irregular surfaces is required. The aid is simple and easy to use and is small and light in construction. The drawing illustrates the aid in actual size that will be most utilised but can be made in any size.
