Patent EP-1041731-A1 (EP)
Inventor: RYCKEBUSCH FRANK
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 1999-03-31
Abstract: A channel characteristic of a transmission channel (CHANNEL) between a
remote terminal (RT) and a central office (CO) is estimated by collecting
information in the remote terminal (RT), transferring this information from the
remote terminal (RT) to the central office (CO) and matching the received
information at the central office (CO) with a channel and remote terminal
simulation model. The values of parameters of the latter simulation model, which
define the channel characteristic to be estimated, are determined as a result of
the matching process. The information collected by the remote terminal (RT)
typically is information that is automatically collected by the remote terminal (RT)
for operational purposes such as equaliser setting, bit allocation, and so on.

Abstract: A vibration-decoupling connector (1) of a type in which a corrugated sleeve (7) is
connected, in a fluid-tight manner to two opposite end fittings (4, 5) sealably fixed, in
turn, to respective portions of pipe to be connected; a second metal sleeve (10),
forming a load-bearing portion of the connector, is arranged radially on the outside of
the corrugated sleeve (7) to protect it; a flow-guide element (13) extends between the
two end fittings (4, 5) to define a tubular portion of duct, fitted with radial clearance
inside the corrugated sleeve (7); according to the invention, the flow-guide element
(13) is securely connected to the corrugated sleeve, at an intermediate portion (25)
thereof between the end fittings (4, 5) by plastic deformation exerted radially
outwards: this plastic deformation can be carried out around an entire circumferential
perimeter (27) of the portion (25), thus forming a continuous circumferential bulge
which connects the flow-guide element (13) and the bellows sleeve (7), or may be
restricted to a series of fixing points, circumferentially spaced around the
circumferential perimeter of the portion (25).

Abstract: A novel splitting bias technique is proposed by the invention. The problem
of biasing a CMOS cascoded final stage is splitted in sub-problems by
using sub-circuits. The inventive idea is that of using two transistor
replicas (M1b, M2b) of the MOS transistors included in the cascoded stage
(2), two current generators I1 and I2 for biasing such transistor replicas
and a circuit block (Xb) which reads out the voltage value Vs(M2b) on one
terminal a transistor replica (M2b) of and uses such a value to bias the
other transistor replica (M1b). 
     Two circuit implementations have been used for the circuit block (Xb): a
simple voltage amplifier or a folded cascoded amplifier closed in shunt
feedback. 
     Both implementations allows to track the threshold voltages of the
cascoded stage transistors, as well as their early and body effects.

Abstract: A filler unit for automatically topping up a battery cell (14) includes a float vessel (16) for containing the liquid to be dispensed and a float valve assembly (34) for establishing a predetermined substantially constant head of liquid in the vessel (16). A baffle plate (40A) in the vessel (16) is spaced sufficiently close to a wall of the vessel (16) to define a capillary passage between the wall and the baffle plate (40A), with at least that surface of the baffle plate (40A) which defines the capillary passage being hydrophilic. In use, the replenishment water is able to flow from the vessel (16) to the cell (14) under gravity along a flowpath until such time as the water level in the cell (14) has risen to a desired level. This creates a pressure equilibrium in the flowpath which causes the flow from the vessel (16) to the cell (14) to cease automatically.

Abstract: A circuit and method uses CRC to check errors detected and corrected by an ECC unit (120) when reading data from a disk (116) in a disk drive (110). A CRC unit (118) monitors both the sector bytes read from the disk platter (114) and the error corrections made by the ECC unit (120) to the data and CRC bytes. The CRC unit (118) uses this information to determine whether the ECC-corrected data bytes stored in a buffer unit (122) were properly corrected. The CRC unit (118) reads data bytes and CRC bytes from the disk (116) simultaneously with the ECC unit (120). The CRC unit (118) begins generating a residue to detect errors in the data at approximately the same time the ECC unit (120) begins generating a residue to detect errors in the sector. The CRC unit (118) does not wait for the ECC unit (120) to finish and transfer the ECC error corrections into a buffer. The CRC error check is completed before any data is transferred to the host computer (112). In particular, the CRC unit (118) approves the data before the disk drive controller (126) sends the data to the host (112).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for warping with a cone sectional warping machine, which winds the threads (10) in bands on a warping drum (11), wherein a support for a thread directing sley and the warping drum are displaced in relation to each other in correspondence with the increasing thickness of winding and predetermined warping data. The first band is scanned during a first measuring phase by a cylinder exerting contact pressure and the scanned setting range is registered depending on the number of rotations of the warping drum. Cylinder pressure on the winding during the measuring phase is continuously monitored using measuring techniques. Displacement of the support is corrected especially if monitoring results differ from a predetermined set value. In order to even out the formation of the wind, the cylinder (15) is arranged at a given distance from the warping drum (11) when warping of the first band is started. The measuring phase is automatically started when the thickness of the winding increases as soon as the winding causes the cylinder (15) to rotate.

Abstract: A system and method is taught for controlling the power level of transmissions within a communication system having a base station, a mobile station, a communication channel, and a pilot channel. The mobile station determines a signal strength value according to a communication signal received by way of the communication channel. A pilot channel signal is determined according to a pilot signal transmitted by way of the pilot channel. The signal to noise ratio of the communication signal is determined according to the determined signal strength value and the pilot channel signal. The power level of a transmission is controlled according to the signal to noise ratio. The noise level in a communication channel within the communication system is estimated. The pilot channel signal includes pilot energy and pilot noise components. The pilot energy component is removed to provide a remaining pilot signal. Communication system operations are controlled according to the remaining pilot signal. The power levels of transmissions are controlled by determining the signal to noise ratio of a signal within the communication channel and determining a difference signal. The difference signal is formed by determining the difference between determined and desired signal to noise ratios. The difference signal is transmitted between the base station and the mobile station. The pilot channel has at least one frame and the power control signal is inserted into the frame. Thus, information representing the strength of the communication signal is transmitted to the base by way of the pilot channel within the frame. The pilot channel can have two information frames for transmitting the power control signal a plurality of times.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to the ship-building industry and more precisely to the construction of hydroplanes that include
propulsion spoilers. This hydroplane comprises a hull with a keeled bottom as well as stem propulsion spoilers, and also includes water-jet
propulsion devices mounted in the stem part of the ship. The water-intake openings of the propulsion devices are arranged at the bottom of
the hull in front of the spoilers. When the ship moves with the propulsion spoilers in an expanded position, an area of increased pressure is
formed immediately in front of said spoilers. This area propagates into the water-intake openings and the water intake from the area with
an increased pressure increases the operation efficiency of the water-jet propulsion devices. This hydroplane can further be fitted with aft
spoilers while the bottom comprises aft and stern transverse steps behind which the spoilers are arranged. In this case, the deadrise angle
of the bottom ranges from 6 to 12° at the aft step and from 0 to 6° at the stern step.
