Title: Communications network
Inventor: BARKER ANDREW JAMES
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2002-03-06
Granted: 2007-01-03
Abstract: A communications network determines for itself its own network topology, that is, the identity and interconnection of nodes comprising the network. The network comprises a plurality of nodes each having at least one port. The ports are interconnected in accordance with the network topology in which communication traffic is conveyed over the network via the interconnected ports. Each port is arranged to transmit first information within the communication traffic including the identity of the port (Section trace identity) from which the communication traffic originates. Second information is transmitted between nodes identifying which first information identity relates to which node and which port. A processor is operative for determining for each node from the first and second information the identity of adjacent nodes and the identity of the ports to which its ports are connected.

Abstract: A communication system includes a forward link from a base station to multiple mobile units, the forward link having multiple shared channels (SHCH's), multiple shared control channels (SHCCH's), and multiple dedicated pointer control channels (DPTRCH's), and utilizes HARQ error control for error detection and error correction. The mobile unit, when listening to the DPTRCH, uses a SHCCH pointed to by the DPTRCH to demodulate and decode data on the SHCH. Throughput problems may arise in the system when the mobile unit combines and decodes the wrong SHCH data, that is, SHCH data that is intended for a different mobile unit, or may incorrectly decodes SHCH data that is intended for the mobile unit. In order to improve the data throughput of the system, the systems employs a flush test and an energy detector test to prevent improperly decoded data blocks from corrupting properly decoded data blocks.

Abstract: A reformer which enables rapid load changes of up to 100% within a few seconds and is intended to produce hydrogen from hydrocarbons by steam reformation, comprises an evaporator cooler for cooling the reformate and for generating steam. The evaporator cooler is disposed in the reformer, on the end of its reaction vessel. It keeps the applicable end of the tube cool and uses the waste heat of the reformate for generating steam. This makes fast load changes possible, because an increase in the introduction of water immediately causes an increase in the reformate produced and thus an increase in the heat output.

Abstract: Caged compounds, i.e. synthetic chemical compounds whose chemical or biochemical activity is normally controlled by photolysis to release an active moiety to participate in a chemical or biochemical reaction, are subjected to electrical current instead of light to release the active moiety. The process is especially useful in chemiluminescent biochemical assays, where it is required to measure the light output in order to quantify the analyte under measurement, since avoids confusion between input energy to trigger the reaction, and light output for measurement purposes.

Abstract: A compact single frequency, single-mode 2 mum fiber laser with narrow linewidth, <100 kHz and preferably <100 kHz, is formed with a low phonon energy glass doped with triply ionized rare-earth thulium and/or holmium oxide and fiber gratings formed in sections of passive silica fiber and fused thereto. Formation of the gratings in passive silica fiber both facilitates splicing to other optical components and reduces noise thus improving linewidth. An increased doping concentration of 0.5 to 15 wt. % for thulium, holmium or mixtures thereof produces adequate gain, hence output power levels for fiber lengths less than 5 cm and preferably less than 3 cm to enable single-frequency operation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a highly reliable method of measuring an analyte in a sample using a redox reaction. In this method, a formazan compound is added to a sample prior to a redox reaction so as to eliminate the influence of any reducing substance in the sample. Thereafter, a reducing substance or an oxidizing substance derived from the analyte is formed, and the amount of the formed substance is measured by the redox reaction. The amount of the analyte is determined from the amount of the formed substance thus measured. As the formazan compound, for example, 1-(4-iodophenyl)-3-(2,4-disulfophenyl)-5-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) formazan can be used.

Abstract: A device for applying tape from a roll of tape (e.g., masking tape) along a surface to be protected with an edge of the tape extending along a juncture between the surface to be protected and a surface to be treated disposed at about a right angle with respect to the surface to be protected. The device includes a two portion housing around and journaling the tape roll, each portion having a tape contacting part of its inner surface in a first plane, and having in a second plane a guide part of its outer surface adapted to be slid along the surface to be treated. The first and second planes on each of the housing portions can be at a small angle with respect to each other and intersect along an application side of the housing. A pressure application structure is mounted on the housing with an outer edge each end of the pressure application structure at the intersection of the first and second planes for a different adjacent one of the housing portions, and with the generally cylindrically arcuate peripheral surface of the pressure application structure disposed at an angle of no greater than 90 degrees with respect to the second plane and projecting from the housing at the intersections of the first and second planes. Tape from the roll extends around the periphery of the pressure application structure so that the dispenser can be manually positioned with either housing portion against the surface to be treated and moved to apply the tape.
