Title: Air interface management in mobile communications
Inventor: DE JONG GJALT
IPC: H04W24/10
Filed: 2005-12-28
Abstract: Air interface management apparatus for use in network-based control of measurements made by mobile user equipment with respect to cells of the network is adapted to detect conflict in content of measurement control messages instructing the report of pathloss measurement values. Conflict is detected in particular where the message specifies: an identity for a triggering event for which the category or categories of cell to be measured is determined at the receiver solely by said identity and comprises detected set cells, or periodical measurement in respect of a detected set cell. Pathloss measurements are not possible in these cases. The apparatus provides a mechanism for dealing with detected conflict by blocking transmission of, or response to, a measurement control message giving rise to conflict. Alternatively, the message or the response may be modified to avoid the conflict.

Title: Electrochemical sensor
Inventor: GRANT ROBERT BRUCE
IPC: G01N27/407
Filed: 2004-08-05
Abstract: An organic contaminant molecule sensor is described for use in a low oxygen concentration monitored environment. The sensor comprises an electrochemical cell, which is formed from a measurement electrode coated with (or formed from) a catalyst having the ability to catalyse the dissociative adsorption of the organic contaminant molecule, the electrode being positioned for exposure to the monitored environment, a reference electrode coated with (or comprised from) a catalyst selected for its ability to catalyse the dissociation of oxygen to oxygen anions, the reference electrode being positioned within a reference environment, and a solid state oxygen anion conductor disposed between and bridging the measurement and reference electrodes, wherein oxygen anion conduction occurs at or above a critical temperature, Tc. Sealing means are provided for separating the reference environment from the monitored environment. Means are also provided for controlling and monitoring the temperature of the cell, and for controlling the electrical current (Ip) flowing between the reference and measurement electrodes. At temperatures (Tads) below Tc, organic contaminant molecules are adsorbed onto and dissociated at the surface of the measurement electrode leading to the build up of carbonaceous deposits at the surface thereof. At temperatures (Ttit) above Tc, an electrical current (Ip) is passed between the reference and measurement electrode thereby to control the number of oxygen anions passing from the reference electrode to the measurement electrode to oxidise the carbonaceous deposits formed at the surface thereof and the formation of carbon dioxide.
