Title: Economiser l'energie des batteries dans un systeme de communication
Inventor: BURBRIDGE RICHARD CHARLES
IPC: H04M1/73

Granted: 2008-09-10
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système de communication permettant d'économiser l'énergie de batteries dans une station réceptrice (CU) dotée d'un code d'identité radio composé de M bits. Un station de base (MIU) émet un message de réveil comprenant au moins deux répétitions d'une séquence de réveil, cette séquence comprenant elle-même N parties concaténées, où N est un entier et où chacune des N parties renferme un mot code de synchronisation et une fraction différente N/M de bits du code d'identité radio. La station réceptrice est mise sous tension par intermittence de manière à détecter une porteuse et au moins une des N parties. Lorsque cette partie est détectée, la station réceptrice reste sous tension et analyse au moins cette partie détectée. Si les bits reçus du code d'identité radio ne correspondent pas aux bits correspondants du code d'identité radio des stations réceptrices, la station réceptrice revient à son mode de mise sous tension intermittente. Sinon, elle reste sous tension pour recevoir un message ajouté au code d'identité radio transmis. Chacune des parties peut être ajoutée à la fin d'un mot code de synchronisation différent qui identifie la partie, si bien que l'identification de l'adresse ne peut se faire que sur cette partie. De plus, les bits du code d'identité radio peuvent être brouillés avant fractionnement de ce code.

Abstract: Lithium ion cells in which the cathode contains a particulate insertion material and a binder are cut open in a dry, inert atmosphere (10). The cell components are treated with a first organic solvent (12) to dissolve the electrolyte, so that this can be reused. They are then treated with a second organic solvent (16) to dissolve the binder, and the particulate material separated (18) from the solution of binder. The insertion material is then reduced (22) so that it does not contain intercalated lithium. The reduction process may be performed electrolytically.

Abstract: This invention is directed to methods, kits and compositions pertaining to PNA Molecular Beacons. PNA Molecular Beacons comprise self-complementary arm segments and flexible linkages that promote intramolecular or intermolecular interactions. In the absence of a target sequence, PNA Molecular Beacons facilitate efficient energy transfer between the linked donor and acceptor moieties of the probe. Upon hybridization of the probe to a target sequence, there is a measurable change in at least one property of at least one donor or acceptor moiety of the probe which can be used to detect, identify or quantitate the target sequence in a sample.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method, a device for gassing media and a gasification body, which meet high sterility requirements. When gas is introduced into reactors containing biological cultures or chemical reactants it frequently becomes necessary, especially in the case of liquids, for the gas to be introduced efficiently without coalescence of the gas bubbles being introduced. According to the invention the gas is introduced by way of a gasification body (2) which is characterized in that it has pores of a uniform size, having a diameter of between 10  mu m and 120  mu m, with a low tolerance of < 10 %. According to the invention, the gasification body (2) is configured as a gasification plate and arranged at the bottom of a device. A flat-membrane filter (3) with hydrophobic properties prevents the exit of polar solvents since the gasification body (2) is configured in a hydrophilic manner.

Abstract: The tool has a two-pole motor (1) to be supplied from an earthed a.c. supply. The motor is connected in series with a controlled electronic switch and is mechanically connected to a tool clamped in a tool holder electrically connected to a safety circuit, via which a leakage current flows when the tool contacts an earthed object, whereupon the controller blocks the electronic switch. The leakage current is detected via a lead from the tool or holder leading to a potential divider with high impedance resistances (7,8) connected between the supply poles. A capacitor is connected in the lead between the tool or holder and potential divider.

Abstract: In a method of producing a micro-electromechanical element a first intermediate layer, which is applied to a first main surface of a first semiconductor wafer, is structured in a first step so as to produce a recess. The first semiconductor wafer is connected via the first intermediate layer to a second semiconductor wafer in such a way that a hermetically sealed cavity is defined by the recess. When one of the wafers has been thinned from a surface facing away from said first intermediate layer so as to produce a diaphragm-like structure on top of the cavity, electronic components are produced in said thinned semiconductor wafer making use of standard semiconductor processes. At least one further intermediate layer between the two semiconductor wafers is provided, which, prior to the connection of the two semiconductor wafers, is structured in such a way that the structure formed in said at least one further intermediate layer and the recess in said first intermediate layer define the cavity. Finally at least one defined opening is produced so as to provide access to the hermetically sealed cavity.

Abstract: An apparatus (402, 404) is provided for detecting link imbalances in a digital cellular communications system including a plurality of wireless units (400) and base stations. The apparatus (402, 404) determines if a link failure in a first radio link between a wireless unit (400) and a base station during call initialisation, whether the link failure is a reverse or forward link failure, whether the link failure is due to a link imbalance in the first radio link, and if so instructs the wireless unit (400) to switch to a second radio link. If the link failure is due to a weak reverse link, the apparatus (402, 404) determines the maximum number of access probes. If the wireless unit (400) has transmitted the maximum number of probes, then communication is initiated on a secondary communication system, or an idle state is entered and communication reinitiated with a primary digital cellular communication system.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système client-serveur à tolérance de pannes qui comporte un serveur primaire, un serveur de secours, et un client. Le client envoie une requête au serveur primaire qui reçoit et traite la requête, incluant l'envoi de la réponse au client, indépendamment de tout traitement de secours. La réaction inclut l'information d'état du serveur primaire. Le serveur primaire exécute également le traitement de secours qui fait intervenir périodiquement un envoi d'information d'état du serveur primaire au serveur de secours. Le client reçoit la réaction du serveur primaire puis envoie l'information d'état du serveur primaire au serveur de secours. L'information d'état du serveur primaire inclut toutes les paires requête-réaction que le serveur primaire a eu à prendre en compte depuis la plus récente transmission d'information d'état du serveur primaire au départ du serveur primaire à destination du serveur de secours. Le moyen dont dispose le serveur primaire pour exécuter le traitement de secours peuvent être périodiquement activés en respectant un intervalle de temps défini. Selon une autre réalisation, ce moyen peut être activé lorsque la mémoire du serveur primaire assurant le stockage de l'information d'état du serveur primaire est remplie jusqu'à un niveau défini.
