Abstract: An exhaust-emission purifying apparatus for an internal
combustion engine (1), including an NOx purifying catalyst (7)
disposed in an exhaust passage (2) of the engine (1) and operable
to occlude NOx in an exhaust emission of the engine (1) operated
in a lean-burn state and reduce the occluded NOx by operating the
engine (1) in a rich-burn state for a short time, and an
electronic control unit (ECU) 30 operable upon detected poisoning
of the catalyst (7) with sox, with its NOx occluding ability of
the catalyst being lowered, to command at least the engine (1) to
effect an SOx-poisoning removing treatment of the catalyst wherein
the catalyst is held at a high temperature and a fuel-rich
air/fuel ratio. The controller determines that the catalyst (7)
has been poisoned with SOx when the NOx occluding ability has been
lowered below a threshold value, which is changed with a present
one of different operating states of the engine (1), so that the
SOx-poisoning removing treatment is effected only when the
treatment is necessary in the specific operating state of the
engine (1), thereby preventing an increase in the amount of
consumption of a fuel by the engine (1) and deterioration of the
exhaust emission of the engine (1).

Abstract: A matching unit (23) includes a switching means for switching an inductance
of a first inductor (62). This switching means sets an inductance such that a first
inductor (62) shows an inductance property to both of the VHF low-band and
high-band, and shows a capacitance property to the UHF band. This structure
allows the matching unit to achieve the matching for both the VHF low-band
and high-band by just switching the two circuits of the VHF low-band and
high-band, also allows the matching unit to show a capacitance property to the
UHF band. Thus the loss produced in transmitting signals can be reduced,
and the circuit can be simplified. As a result, the matching unit can be
downsized, and the cost can be reduced.

Abstract: A method of programming an electrically programmable memory comprises: accessing a group of memory cells ( MC1-MCk ) of the memory to ascertain a programming state thereof ( 401,407;503,509a,513a ); applying a programming pulse to those memory cells in the group whose programming state is not ascertained to correspond to a desired programming state ( 405;507a,509c,513c ); and repeating said acts of accessing and applying for the memory cells in the group whose programming state is not ascertained ( 411;509b,513b ). After the programming state of a prescribed number of memory cells in the group has been ascertained, the memory cells in the group are accessed again and the programming state of the memory cells whose programming state was previously ascertained is re-ascertained ( 413,415;515 ); at least one additional programming pulse is applied to those memory cells in the group whose programming state is not re-ascertained ( 405;507a,509c,513c ). The method guarantees that the programming state of the memory cells is ascertained in conditions that closely resembles, or are substantially identical, to the conditions in which the memory cells will be accessed in a standard read.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for enhancing performance of a packet service of a mobile communication terminal is disclosed. When the mobile communication terminal uses a packet service, a Radio Access Bearer RAB set between the mobile communication terminal and a base station is compared to a reference value and the priority level of a packet service task processed in the mobile communication terminal is raised only when the mobile communication terminal is connected to the base station at or above the reference value. When the packet service is terminated, the priority level of the packet service task is returned to an original low priority level. The mobile communication terminal uses a maximum transmission speed for the packet service and when the mobile communication terminal uses a concurrent service requiring both real time service and packet service, packet service performance may be improved without affecting the real time service.
