Title: Electronic payment method of presentation to an automated clearing house (ACH)
Inventor: QUEK SENG HENG
IPC: G06Q20/00
Filed: 2009-01-06
Abstract: An electronic payment method implemented as an application gateway between a bank and an automated clearing house (ACH) which facilitates presentation of complete payment particulars to said ACH of a request for payment from a payor to a payee. Our method requires each of payor and payee to separately input their respective particulars to complete said payment particulars for presentation to the ACH, wherein each of said payor and payee are only allowed selective access to particulars sufficient to identify the transaction. A payor initiates payment request via his bank's electronic banking channel having access to said application gateway. Partial payment particulars are provided which includes a payee identifier. The payee receives a unique code enabling him to access the application gateway via his bank's channel and complete his part of the payment particulars. The complete particulars are presented to the ACH for clearance.

Title: Method for printing an electronic document from a mobile device on a network printer.
Inventor: HUSTER KARSTEN
IPC: G06F3/12
Filed: 2010-10-11
Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for printing electronic documents from mobile devices. The system has a processing means, eg a print server, which interacts with a mobile device to receive electronic-document-information related to an electronic document. The processing means converts the electronic document into a print-ready-converted electronic document by using the electronic-document-information and a print-related-information, like the selection of a printer or providing necessary finishing options, such as duplex printing. The print-ready-converted electronic document is thereafter stored within a secure print queue on the processing means, including the print server. Using the mobile device the print-ready-converted electronic document may be released by the mobile device for printing on a designated multifunctional device. The mobile device may also be used for initiating a scanning of a hardcopy on a designated multifunctional device. The processing means, the mobile device and the multifunctional device may be part of a network.

Title: A solid electrolytic capacitor with more uniform electrolyte and high peak surge current capability
Inventor: PINWILL IAN
IPC: H01G9/032
Filed: 2011-06-15
Abstract: A solid electrolytic capacitor that contains an anode body formed from an electrically conductive powder and a dielectric coating located over and/or within the anode body is provided.

Patent GB-2496454-A (GB)
Title: Retransmission diversity
Inventor: LILLEBERG JORMA
IPC: H04L1/18
Filed: 2011-11-14
Abstract: Retransmission diversity method which enables subsequent frames transmissions to be combined even when frame scrambling has been used. A first frame is received by a wireless receivÂ­er (152) and modulation symbols in the first frame are determined and stored to a memory of the receiver. If a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) failure is determined for the first frame, the frame is not passed to medium access control and no acknowledgement (ACK) is returned to the transmitting station (150), so that after an acknowledgement timeout expires the transmitting station will retransmit the same frame. A second frame is then reÂ­ceived by the wireless receiver, and modulation symbols in the second frame are deÂ­termined and stored to a memory of the receiver. The receiver then computes a correlation factor between the modulation symbols from the first frame and the modulation symbols from the second frame. If the receiver deterÂ­mines that the correlation factor exceeds a predefined threshold, it performs maxÂ­imum ratio combining for modulation symbols from the first frame and modulaÂ­tion symbols from the second frame in order to obtain a combined frame. The combined frame is demodulated and cyclic redundancy check success is determined for the combined frame. The retransmission diversity method is particularly applicable in wireless local area networks (WLAN).
