Title: Method and apparatus for scheduling in a wireless network
Inventor: ABRAHAM SANTOSH
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2005-05-27
Abstract: Techniques for scheduling flows and links for transmission are described. Each link is an oriented source-destination pair and carries one or more flows. Each flow may be associated with throughput, delay, feedback (e.g., acknowledgments (ACKs)) and/or other requirements. A serving interval is determined for each flow based on the requirements for the flow. A serving interval is determined for each link based on the serving intervals for all of the flows sent on the link. Each link is scheduled for transmission at least once in each serving interval, if system resources are available, to ensure that the requirements for all flows sent on the link are met. The links are also scheduled in a manner to facilitate closed loop rate control. The links are further scheduled such that ACKs for one or more layers in a protocol stack are sent at sufficiently fast rates.

Patent CA-2583766-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KENNEDY DAVID P
IPC: H04Q7/22
Filed: 2007-03-05
Abstract: The invention, One Button Automated Document Management Processes Using Wireless Networks, is a set of new unique processes that allow for the simple user operation of a system that manages documents by transmitting or receiving them to and from a central server over wireless networks. Today, in the transport industry there is no standard means to retrieve "proof of delivery", a signed copy of the invoice, in order to process invoicing. Specifically the invention is used for the digitizing of customer signed documents by the delivery person, typically a driver of a transport vehicle, and then transmitting the digitized document over a wireless network to a central file server. The additional process is the remote retrieval of a digital document from a central file server over a wireless network and the subsequent printing of that document on a printer in the transport vehicle.

Abstract: Moteur de générateur d'impulsions amélioré, intelligent et écoénergétique utilisé pour générer des impulsions dans la boue dans une application de MWD (mesure en cours de forage). Dans le générateur d'impulsions, un circuit de commande alimenté par courant continu (CC) actionne un moteur électrique rotatif réversible sans balai à trois phases qui utilise le CC, lequel moteur commande une servo-vanne, l'ouverture de laquelle fait fonctionner une vanne principale pour rétrécir la section d'écoulement et créer une pointe de pression dans la colonne de boue. La fermeture de la servo-vanne active similairement la vanne principale et augmente la section d'écoulement ce qui met fin à la pointe de pression. La servo-vanne est alimentée au moment de l'ouverture et de la fermeture par le moteur électrique rotatif réversible, qui, conjointement avec l'avantage mécanique procuré par la vis à roulements et la tige filetée dans un convertisseur de mouvement rotatif à linéaire, fournit une force suffisante pour vaincre la résistance du type de joint dynamique d'étanchéité requis pour isoler de la boue ambiante les composants d'entraînement de l'actionneur.

Abstract: A damping force generating mechanism of a hydraulic shock absorber having a piston (8) fixed to the tip of a piston rod (1) in a cylinder (15). A port (7) for flowing a hydraulic oil from an oil chamber (R) to an oil chamber (P) according to the extending operation of the piston rod (1) are formed longitudinally across the piston (8). To provide a resistance to the hydraulic oil flowing out from the ports (7), a damping force generating valve (9) for generating a damping force during the extension is installed on the oil chamber (P) side of the piston (8). A restriction member (14) keeps constant a distance between a nut (13) threaded with the piston rod (1) passed through the piston (8) and the piston (8). The easiness of the assembling and the degree of freedom of the design of the damping force generating mechanism can be secured by disposing the restriction member (14) during its extension on the outside of the damping force generating valve (9).
