Title: System for monitoring a CDMA mobile terminal and CDMA base station
Inventor: NAKAYASU KANADA
IPC: H04B17/391
Filed: 2001-05-30
Abstract: A system for monitoring a CDMA mobile terminal 205 includes a CDMA base station system 100, a CDMA core network 202, a server 203 which monitors the CDMA base station system and a monitoring device 204 monitoring and controlling the CDMA base station system through the server and core network and controlling making a call. A personal computer terminal 206 connected to the mobile terminal 205 acts as a local monitoring device. A request from the mobile terminal or server followed by a registration check connects the mobile terminal 205 to the monitoring device 204 through the base station system and core network. As a result it is possible to monitor an operation of the base station system. An operator can confirm operation of the base station system by accessing the server using the personal computer 206.

Title: Processing seismic data
Inventor: MUYZERT EVERHARD JOHAN
IPC: G01V1/36
Filed: 2001-12-22
Abstract: A method of processing seismic data comprising the steps acquiring seismic data in at least two shots that have different source-receiver azimuths from one another, and selecting events arising from interface seismic waves in each shot. The interface wave events are processed to provide information about azimuthal dependence of the velocity of seismic energy in the near-surface of the earth's interior. The method may be used to process events arising from Scholte waves in marine seismic data, or to processing events arising from Love waves or Rayleigh waves in land seismic data. The method may be applied to seismic data acquired specifically to provide information about the near-surface or to seismic data acquired to provide information about the underlying geological structure.

Title: Dispensing device with contaminant guard
Inventor: LEE VANESSA
IPC: B65D51/00
Filed: 2002-02-07
Abstract: A device that fits tightly into the neck of a bottle, to restrict an individual placing drugs or any foreign objects into the bottle that could contaminate the drink. The device consists of two component parts a filter cap and a hollow body section that are permanently joined. The filter cap has a ring that narrows the bottle opening restricting any access to foreign objects.

Title: Tone signal generation apparatus
Inventor: OTSUKA EIJI
IPC: H04Q1/457
Filed: 2000-11-23
Abstract: The present invention relates to a tone signal generation apparatus 300 for generating multi-frequency tones such as DTMF. Storage section 310 stores frequency information corresponding to 2n sine waves whilst storage section 320 stores amplitude information relating to the sine waves. In response to instructions from an external control section, storage sections 310 and 320 generate two single frequencies per waveform via a sine wave generation section 330 which outputs a sine wave on the basis of the amplitude and frequency information. A reset generation section is used to reset the sine wave generation section at predetermined intervals in order to stabilise the sine wave. The sine wave passes through a rectangular processing section 350 which converts it to a rectangular wave on the basis of the stored amplitude information. The rectangular wave then passes through an addition/alternating processing section and on to a compression section, which may switch between the A and ž rules, which subsequently outputs the waveform data. Also disclosed is a method of receiving a tone signal.

Title: Data transfer between processors using a system with an independent data transfer clock.
Inventor: INOHARA NAOYUKI
IPC: H04L7/04
Filed: 2002-11-08
Abstract: Asynchronous data transfer between processors is obtained by making the bus, network or data transfer clock independent of the processor or system clock. The data clock and the system clock creates a data processing enable signal when the data is transmitted. The data is taken in and processed according to the data enable signal by the target processor at a predetermined cycle number of the system clock. The system clock could be fixed at a higher rate than the data clock. Also the data processing enable signal could be created by regarding a first cycle of the system clock satisfying electric characteristics in one cycle of the data clock as an enable signal. Next, suspending processing until the next enable signal is enabled after the data has been processed. The data clock could be reproduced inside the receiving processor by a synchronization signal, to take in the data.

Title: Molecular detector arrangement
Inventor: ALLEN BRIAN PHILIP
IPC: G01N21/65
Filed: 2003-04-25
Abstract: An analyte carrier, such as a microtiter plate, microfluidic chip or other suitable arrangements for supporting an analyte has a conducting layer for receipt of an analyte having a non-random surface structure pattern designed to enhance the Raman scattering from molecules in an analysis region. The designed surface structure pattern has regions of high curvature, which increase the electromagnetic field provided from the surface, thereby enhancing the energy transfer from electrons in the metal surface to molecules in a region above the surface. This provides energy to electron bandgap levels in the molecules, thereby enhancing Raman scattering which can be detected by a separate detector.
