Title: Fragrant artificial flower combination
Inventor: LINDAUER JEROME
IPC: A61L9/12
Filed: 1998-01-19
Abstract: A fragrance-dispensing artificial flower combination has a cylindrical container 12 with an open upper end and a closed lower end. A volatile liquid fragrance 15 is in the container and a piston 14 is slidably mounted in the container for closing the container over the fragrance. The piston has an opening therethrough, between the open upper end of the container and the fragrance in the container, and a tube 16 extends into the open end of the piston. An absorbent material button 25 receives the upper end of the tube, the button having a lower surface pierced by a passage into which the upper end of the tube extends. Means defining an artificial flower 14 is provided around the button and a sleeve 22 is provided around the tube, the sleeve extending from the container to the flower and simulating a stem of the flower. The tube is operable to push the piston downwardly into the container for forcing liquid fragrance from the container through the piston and into the absorbent button for saturating the button to dispense the fragrance from the button. The end of the tube extending into the piston may be angled (42, Fig4) to improve its seating within the piston.

Title: Bipolar OTA based on hyperbolic function transformation
Inventor: KIMURA KATSUJI
IPC: H03F3/45
Filed: 1998-03-26
Abstract: An OTA having a completely linear transconductance is provided. This OTA is comprised of a V-I converter 1a, a first I-V converter 5a, a second I-V in converter 6a, a third I-V converter 7a, a first differential pair 2 of first and second emitter-coupled bipolar transistors driven by a first constant current, and a second differential pair 4 of third and fourth emitter-coupled bipolar transistors driven by a second constant current. The V-I converter converts a differential input voltage to first and second output currents linearly related to the differential input voltage and generates a third output current. The first I-V converter converts the first output current to a first output voltage to be applied to a base of the fourth transistor. The second I-V converter converts the second output current to a second output voltage to be applied to a base of the first transistor. The third I-V converter converts the third output current to a third output voltage to be applied to bases of the second and third transistors. The third output voltage is equal to a middle point voltage (i.e., a half) of a sum of the first and second output voltages. Other embodiments (figures 3, 4 and 5) show the third output voltage derived from third and fourth currents from the V-I converter and the use of a quadritail cell (8) (fig 5).

Title: Congestion control in packet-based networks
Inventor: LOUGHRAN KEVIN
IPC: H04L12/54
Filed: 1999-03-30
Abstract: A network switch 2 generates back pressure signals in the form of control frames when a local buffer fills to a predetermined level. The control frames are received by the packet source 1 which temporarily stops transmitting packets for a period specified by the control frames. In addition, the switch counts the number of back pressure signals it generates (known as the "jam count") to obtain a measure of the congestion of the switch (23, fig. 2). The rate of change of this count is monitored (24, fig. 2) and packets are discarded by the switch if it exceeds a first threshold. When the rate of change of the count falls below a second threshold the discard feature is disabled. The measure of congestion may take into account the pause times specified by the back pressure signals.
Patent GB-2349961-A (GB)
Title: Analysing data files to produce summaries therefrom
Inventor: THORNTON REUBEN HAL
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1999-05-08
Abstract: Analysing potentially very large data files including a number of records, each consisting of a number of fields, and generating one or more summaries therefrom, wherein for reliable processing, a predictable amount of memory, regardless of the size of the data file, is used, and for efficient processing, the records from the file are read only once. For each summary required, a signature of each record, comprising a number of fields, each some function of the fields within the original record, is formed as each record is read in turn. Summary information is maintained for each distinct signature, e.g. the number of records with that signature (count). The total number of signatures can be contained by banding continuous fields into particular value ranges (histogram), and by setting limits on the range of permitted values (cap). The output summaries (sets of distinct signatures) include intermediate "null" values for signatures which did not appear in the data file but whose fields are designated as continuous. A complete range of values can thus be output for further analysis (e.g. plotting on a graph).

Title: Determining the rate of received data in a variable rate communication system
Inventor: KONG JUN-JIN
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 1999-08-31
Abstract: Received data is decoded at each of several possible data rates using respective pre-decoders 201, 206, 211, 216 which have a simple structure and rapidly perform decoding. The decoded data is then re-encoded 202, 207, 212, 217 and compared 203, 208, 213, 218 to the received data in order to provide a measure of the quality of the decoded data at each rate, e.g. a symbol error rate. An estimate of the data rate is made based on the quality measures and final decoding of the received data is performed by a viterbi decoder 222 operating at the estimated rate. Thus viterbi decoding is only performed at one data rate resulting in increased speed and reduced power consumption compared to the prior art (figure 1). Application is to variable-rate systems such IS-95 CDMA and IMT-2000.

Patent HU-T67808-A (HU)
Title: Process for producing foamed polymers
Inventor: ADLER ROBERT
IPC: C08J9/12
Filed: 1993-11-12
Abstract: The process relates to the preparation of foamed plastics, in which one or more blowing agents are fed in a controllable manner to the softened plastic, where an inert blowing agent, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen or argon is used and the plastic containing the blowing agent(s) is extruded. According to the invention, first an inert blowing agent is premixed under high pressure with a carrier substance which itself has high solubility firstly for the inert blowing agent and secondly in the plastic to be extruded, and this mixture is subsequently injected into the plastic under high pressure. This allows considerably larger amounts of inert blowing agent to be dissolved in the softened plastic than in processes without premixing.
