Title: Controlling power transfer using rotating mass
Inventor: KROLAK MATTHEW L
IPC: H02J3/30
Filed: 2012-11-09
Abstract: A control system for an energy storage system includes a rotating mass, for example, flywheel 140, where the electrical energy from a power source, for example, AC grid 40, is converted to and from mechanical energy by a motor/generator 41. A power transfer value, indicating a power level to be transferred either to or from an energy storage sub-system, is received, as well as an input comprising a rotational speed of a rotating mass in the energy storage sub-system. A torque value corresponding to the power transfer value based on the rotational speed of the rotating mass is calculated and it is determined whether the torque value exceeds a maximum allowed torque. An adjusted torque value is defined as the maximum allowed torque value if the torque value exceeds the maximum allowed torque value, or the torque value if the torque value does not exceed the maximum allowed torque value, and is provided to a direct torque controller 125 for controlling the torque of the rotating mass.

Title: A Method and System of Providing Data Service According to a User's Future Location
Inventor: LIOULIS NIKOLAOS
IPC: H04W4/029
Filed: 2013-03-15
Abstract: A method for controlling data service for a user of a telecommunication network is disclosed. It comprises: retrieving data associated with historical behaviour for instance, cell connections, cell measurements, or requested data services of the user within the network; predicting, based on said data and on a current user location within the network, a future user location within the network; performing a determination of network capability at the future user location; and modifying, in response to the determination, a configuration of the network and/or a service parameter associated with the user. The modifying step may be performed in accordance with a user profile, or based on a requested data service. A series of future locations may be predicted, and a probable route between the current and future locations calculated. Deviations from the predicted route may be detected, which may lead to recalculation of the predicted route. Instructions may be provided to a base station, particularly if the predicted future location is a white spot, thus allowing the effects of the white spot to be somewhat mitigated. This may include tilt adjustment of the base station, beam steering, traffic steering, or increasing the transmit power of the base station.

Title: Transmitter and receiver and methods of transmitting and receiving
Inventor: ATUNGSIRI SAMUEL ASANBENG
IPC: H04L27/26
Filed: 2013-07-04
Abstract: A frame structure for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) system (e.g. DVB) comprises preamble and payload symbols, with the preamble symbols including overhead signalling. To achieve frame detection/synchronisation, a signature sequence 1302, 1303 is added to each of the sub-carriers of the OFDM preamble symbols 1301. The two signals may be power scaled 1002, 1006 to ensure their combination maintains constant power. The signature sequence is selected from a set of sequences with the selection providing a message, for example, an early warning signal (EWS). A guard interval (GI) is formed from the signature sequence so that a receiver can detect the EWS from the guard interval only, thus reducing the time required to detect the EWS. In a first embodiment the guard interval is made up solely from the signature sequence 1403, 1404. In a second embodiment the signature sequence forms the majority of the guard interval (2103 & 2104, fig. 21).

Title: Mobile radio communications network congestion
Inventor: FUTAKI HISASHI
IPC: H04W48/06
Filed: 2013-09-25
Abstract: The invention provides for a method of easing congestion in a mobile radio communications network including the step of applying access restriction (or attempting communication) at a mobile radio communications user device 10 towards the network and on the basis of bearer characteristics such as new or ongoing bearer, bearer quality of service (QoS), bearer type and or bearer class, and the access restrictions being controlled by the network e.g. the Radio Access Network such as via an eNodeB 12 or the Core Network 14. This allows access restriction to be applied to devices operating in a connected mode. It is also possible to restrict access for individual applications (e.g. those with a low priority) and to allow access for others (e.g. emergency communications) based on the bearer characteristics
