Patent GB-0221371-D0 (GB)
Title: Mobile communication system
IPC: H04W4/02
Filed: 2002-09-14
Abstract: Within a wireless communications system there is broadcast an orientation signal containing position data identifying the position of devices within the system. A mobile terminal in receipt of the position data contained in the orientation signal is able to use this data to determine the location of a device towards which to direct its directional antenna. This allows mobile terminals to easily locate access points without the need for beam searching, and allows the directional beams to be narrow, which minimises the transmit power. Useful for operation at high radio frequencies where otherwise the transmission power would be too high. This system could be used for directing communications from a mobile terminal to a base station or between terminals in an "ad-hoc" system.
Patent GB-0522666-D0 (GB)
Title: Latch arrangement
IPC: E05B65/12
Filed: 2005-11-07
Abstract: A latch arrangement includes a lever (32) movable in response to movement of a door lever (20,21). A controller is configured for selectively preventing movement of the lever. The controller includes a mono-stable blocking element (46) in the form of a bi-metallic strip or a piezoelectric beam, which can be operated in such a way that its distal end acts to block movement of the lever (32). The controller also includes a bi-stable blocking element (41) which has a nib (43A) that can be moved to an extended position to block movement of the lever (32). Both blocking elements can be operated at the same time. Unlatching of the door is prevented when either of the blocking elements are arranged in the path of the release lever (32).
Patent GB-0707392-D0 (GB)
Title: A method of transmission
Filed: 2007-04-18
Abstract: A method of transmission comprises receiving at a first destination (D1), a transmission from a first source (S1); determining from the transmission from the first source, the maximum permitted additional interference subject to which the first destination can still communicate; sending an acknowledgement of the transmission and including in the acknowledgement an indication of the determined maximum permitted additional interference. A second source (S2) determines whether it has received the transmission from the first source, or the acknowledgement from the first destination, at a power level lower than that of the maximum permitted additional interference given in the indication; and if so, the second source sends a transmission to a second destination (D2), which at least partially overlaps in time, communication between the first source and first destination.

Title: Determining lateral offset in distributed fibre optic acoustic sensing
Filed: 2009-11-13
Abstract: Techniques for determining lateral offset of the source of an acoustic disturbance in a distributed acoustic fibre optic sensor are described. The sensor comprises an optical source (112) for interrogating an optical fibre (104) and a detector (116) and processor (108) arranged to detect any backscattered radiation and determine a measurement signal for a plurality of discrete longitudinal sensing portions of the optical fibre. The processor is also arranged to analyse the measurement signals to identify signals corresponding to the same acoustic wave arriving at different parts of the fibre and determine from the time of arrival of said acoustic wave the direction and/or distance of the origin of said acoustic wave from the optical fibre. The geometry of the fibre may be arranged to ensure that any positional ambiguity can be resolved and the use of multiple fibres (501, 502) is disclosed.
Patent GB-8427177-D0 (GB)
Title: Liquid quality monitor
IPC: G01N21/53
Filed: 1984-10-26
Abstract: A power station boiler condensate water monitor employs a light-scatter cell (4) for the detection of oil and/or particulates in the water. In order to determine background scatter levels, provision is made to alternatively pass clean water through the cell (FLUSH). The offset voltages obtained from the detector outputs when clean water is employed are compensated for differences in temperature between the boiler condensate water and the clean water before subtraction from the detector outputs when boiler condensate water is employed. The monitor is capable of detecting oil levels of less than 2 ppm.

Title: Debossing & perforating polymeric web
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1986-05-30
Abstract: @ A continuous, multi-phase process for debossing and perforating a substantially continuous web of substantially planar polymeric film to coincide with the image of one or more forming structures, each having a patterned forming surface with a multiplicity of holes and an opposed surface. Each forming structure is open from the holes in the forming surface to its opposed surface. The web of film has an indefinite length, a first surface, a second surface and a thickness. The thickness comprises the distance between the first surface and the second surface. The process comprises at least two sequential.forming phases, one of which involves three-dimensional conformance of the web to the macroscopic profile of the forming structure and another of which involves aperturing of the web to coincide with fine-scale apertures in either the same or a separate forming structure. The order in which the phases are carried out will depend upon the properties desired in the resultant macroscopically expanded, three-dimensional, apertured polymeric web. Because the process is carried out in sequential phases, previously incompatible characteristics which could not be provided by prior art single-phase forming processes can now be achieved.

Title: An electro-optical detection system
IPC: G01S7/487
Filed: 1988-05-13
Abstract: An electro-optical detection system for detecting objects embedded in a partially transmitting medium. The system includes a receiver for receiving electromagnetic radiation and a device for separating the received radiation into two separate spectral channels. A detector in each of the spectral channels for providing a signal indicative of the received radiation in each spectral channel.

Abstract: In the case of a cooler having a tube package disposed within a housing and formed by superposed flat tubes 21 to 33, at least one intermediate wall is constituted by a flat tube 25, 29 itself, adjacent to which there is on one side a partition 40, 50 extending as far as the inside surface of the housing wall, so that the through-flow space between the intermediate wall and the adjacent partition is sub-divided and so that a meandering flow path is provided for the cooling medium which flows through the housing and along the outside of the tube package, in the interior of which flows the medium which is to be cooled. The flat tubes are constructed as substantially rectangular longitudinal members. The partition may be disposed between two longitudinal walls provided on both sides and which engage over at least a part of the longitudinal sides of the tube package, closing off and sealing a gap between them and the wall of the housing. Thus, any possibility of a bypass flow in this region is avoided. At the same time, a meandering and multi-section flow path is achieved. The cooling efficiency of the cooler is improved. The cooler is simple, favourably priced, relatively light and compact. <IMAGE>
