Inventor: TOMIMURA KOUKI
IPC: C22C38/42
Filed: 2002-06-06
Abstract: A high-strength dual-phase stainless steel strip has a chemical
composition consisting of 0.04-0.15 mass % C, 10.0-20.0 mass % Cr, 0.5-4.0
mass % Ni and the balance being Fe except inevitable impurities, and a
metallurgical structure composed of 20-85 vol. % martensite grains and the
balance ferrite grains with prior austenite grains controlled to 10 µm or less
in size. The stainless steel strip is conditioned to hardness of HV 300 or more.
Transformation strains are uniformly distributed in a steel matrix during
martensitic transformation, so that the steel strip is formed and straightened
to a belt shape without Lüders band. Consequently, steel belts with fine
external appearance are manufactured from the stainless steel strip.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of integrating voice and data services onto a same
frequency channel using available transmit power information to determine data rates, wherein
the available transmit power information indicates an amount of transmit power available for
future data transmissions over one or more data channels. In a "distributed" embodiment, a
transmitter or base station transmits, via a forward link, an available power message to a receiver
or mobile-telephone indicating an amount of available transmit power at some future time  t + z .
The mobile-telephone performs signal-to-interference measurements corresponding to the
received forward link and received interference, and uses such signal-to-interference
measurements and the available power message to determine a data rate that can be supported by
the mobile-telephone. Preferably, the determined data rate corresponds to a maximum data rate at
which a minimum level of quality of service can be achieved at the mobile-telephone. In a
"centralized" embodiment, the mobile-telephone transmits the signal-to-interference
measurements to the base station, and the base station determines the data rate based on the
available transmit power at future time  t+z .
