Abstract: The power control process of the present invention enables a base station communicating over a forward packet channel to a mobile radio to control the power of the mobile radio transmitting over a reverse packet channel to the base station. The base station maintains a maximum energy per bit to total interference spectral density ratio threshold for the reverse channel as well as a desired threshold that results in a low frame error rate. By comparing each radiotelephone's estimated energy per bit to total interference spectral density ratio to the desired and maximum thresholds, power control commands to increase or decrease the radiotelephone's transmit power are generated depending on the outcome of the comparison. <IMAGE>

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/AU95/00585 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 29, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 29, 1996 PCT Filed Sep. 8, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/07363 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 14, 1996A scalpel blade remover removes a blade from the tang of a scalpel. The scalpel is inserted in, and withdrawn from, the blade remover along the same substantially straight-line path. The blade remover has a rocker block which pivots about an axis transverse to the insertion path. When the scalpel is inserted into the blade remover, its tang pushes against a contact surface of the rocker block, causing the rocker block to pivot. A pair of legs at the other end of the rocker block apply a transverse force to the heel of the blade on either side of the tang, thereby lifting the heel of the blade off the tang. When the scalpel has been inserted far enough, a pawl drops behind the heel of the blade. The pawl strips the blade from the tang when the scalpel handle is removed. The blade remover is typically mounted in the lid of a sharps container.

Abstract: A cutting insert having a chipbreaking configuration for effectively embrittling and breaking thin, foil-like chips produced by drilling or other fine-cutting operations is provided. The cutting insert includes a polygonal insert body having a top surface, a side relief surface, and a cutting edge defined therebetween, and a chipbreaker formed by an elongated groove disposed on the top surface behind the cutting edge in combination with a plurality of recesses disposed over the groove having opposing side edges. The back wall of the groove applies curling forces to the chips, while the opposing side edges of the recesses engage and corrugate the chips thereby embrittling them by work-hardening. The corrugated chips are broken by the curling forces applied by the back and rear walls of the groove and the recesses into small pieces that are easily expelled from the vicinity of the cutting operation.

Abstract: A wet type nonwoven fabric for a separator of a cell, comprising 20 to 95 wt.% short fibers composed of single fibers of 20 νm or thinner of a thermoplastic polymer, and hot-melt short fibers having a melting point higher by 20 °C than the thermoplastic short fibers. The two types of fibers are entangled three-dimensionally, the mean distance of the entanglement points of the short fibers is not greater than 300 νm, and at least a part of the hot-melt short fibers is thermally fused so as to mutually bond the short fibers and to fix the nonwoven fabric structure. This nonwoven fabric has a basic weight of 10 to 350 g/m2, a thickness of 30 to 1,000 νm and an apparent density of 0.26 to 0.7 g/cm3, and it is superior in uniformity and mechanical strength. Because of its liquid retention property and liquid absorbing speed required for a separator material of a cell, the fiber is a useful material for the production of a secondary cell having excellent overcharge characteristics and cycle characteristics. Incidentally, the wet type nonwoven fabric of the present invention can be obtained by water flow entanglement processing of a web prepared by wet process by using the short fiber materials described above which has a ratio (L/D) of a fiber length (L) to a single fiber diameter (D) of 0.5 to 2.0x103, without leaving the traces of the water column.

Date Dec. 27, 1996A system and method for determining an urgency class of a disturbance occurring in a base station of a cellular communication system. A list of possible disturbances that can emerge during the functioning of the base station and the preliminary urgency classes determined for the disturbances concerned is maintained in a memory. In order to enable more accurate urgency classification, a preliminary urgency class is searched out from the memory corresponding to disturbances in question. An alarm urgency class is conditioned with the communications state of the base station by detaining a less urgent class than the preliminary urgency class when the communications state of the base station is peaceful (i.e., not busy). When the communication state of the base station is busy, a more urgent class than that of the preliminary urgency class is determined for the alarm.

Abstract: A system for preventing the interruption of satellite communications between an earth antenna and a satellite during inclement weather. The system is comprised of a cover that is adapted to be positioned on the opening of the satellite cover so as to reduce the likelihood of liquid water accumulating on the front reflecting surface of the antenna. The cover and the front reflecting surface further define a space and an air circulation system circulates air in the space. The circulating air increases the air pressure in the space relative to the surrounding atmosphere and pressurized air then travels through the cover and blows water accumulating on the outer surface of the cover off of the outer surface to further reduce the likelihood that accumulations of water on the outer surface of the cover will result in interruptions to satellite communications with the earth based satellite antenna.

Abstract: The invention provides an improved method for preparing foamed gypsum products. The invention can utilize a single mixing chamber and significantly improve the efficiency of foaming agent usage. In the method of the invention the point of insertion of aqueous foam into calcined gypsum slurry is positioned such that the foam is agitated less than the calcined gypsum to thereby minimize destruction of the foam while still uniformly dispersing the foam in the calcined gypsum slurry. This is accomplished, for example, by locating an inlet for foam closer to the discharge outlet of a slurry mixing chamber than the location of the inlet for calcined gypsum or by locating the foam inlet in a discharge conduit connected to the discharge outlet of the slurry mixing chamber.

Date Aug. 14, 1997A compression method and apparatus for a transmission link in a telecommunications network between switching centers each associated with a compression apparatus connected thereto by a number of PCM transmission channels for receiving a speech signal from each PCM transmission channel and transferring the speech signal via an interconnecting PCM link having a transmission capacity lower than the number of transmission channels received from the switching center to the other compression apparatus. The speech signal between the first switching center and the compression apparatus is either a pure PCM coded speech signal or a PCM coded speech signal in which one or more least significant bits of the PCM samples provide a sub-channel for lower-rate vocoded speech containing the same speech information as the PCM samples but in a vo-coded format. The interconnecting link has one or more PCM channels in each of which all bits of the PCM samples are utilized for providing two or more subchannels in each of which lower-rate vocoded speech or data can be transmitted. One compression apparatus is arranged, in response a PCM coded speech signal containing the subchannel, to multiplex the content of the subchannel into one of the subchannels in the interconnecting link, and, in response to a pure PCM coded speech signal, to encode the latter into a lower-rate vocoded speech signal and to multiplex the vocoded speech signal into one of the subchannels in the interconnecting link.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for measuring the shearing action in the core of a sandwich structure, for instance a hull. The device comprises a sensing means, e.g. a cylindrical rod, and a measuring instrument. The rod is adapted to be inserted into a cylindrical hole which is bored in the hull preferably perpendicular to the surface thereof so as to extend a distance into the core and which has a diameter corresponding to that of the rod. By means of the measuring instrument, an angle between the rod and a reference plane is measured, which is determined by three points on the surface of the hull or the change of this angle when the hull is subjected to a change in load. This angle can be converted into a measure of the current shearing load.
