Title: Handover determination in a mobile communications system
Inventor: ESCAMILLA JAVIER
IPC: H04W36/08
Filed: 1998-06-17
Abstract: A self adaptive handover determination system (5) functions by taking into account how much a handover threshold is exceeded based on repeated measurements of received signal strength or quality. Consecutive signal measurements are compared (7) with a first threshold (8). As soon as one of the averaged values exceeds this threshold, a summing operation (9) with the difference between the average sample and the first threshold is started. If the subsequent averaged sample is also over the first threshold, then its difference with the first threshold is added to the previous value to form a cumulative sum of differences. If an averaged sample is below the first threshold, the cumulative sum is reset and the summing operation will not resume until another sample exceeding the first threshold arrives. If the cumulative sum exceeds a second threshold, handover is initiated.

Title: Video on demand system with adaptively controlled response stand-by time
Inventor: LIM TAE-BEOM
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 1998-12-11
Abstract: In a video on demand system in which users requesting the same program within a certain time interval, called the response stand-by time (RSBT), are provided with that program simultaneously as a group when that interval has expired, the duration of the response stand-by time (RSBT) interval is adaptively controlled depending on the number of requests made for the corresponding program in the previous (ie. most recently expired) interval. In response to a service demand signal from a user requesting the corresponding program, a program group search request signal for that program is generated 306, a program group for the corresponding program is decided 307 from stored data, and a count NDT of the number of such decisions is made 308 until the RSBT interval expires 309. The duration of the RSBT for the current interval is changed if the current NDT count (that is the NDT count made over the previous RSBT interval) meets certain criteria. The RSBT may be changed if the current NDT (for the previous RSBT) is outside a predetermined range, which range is different for different RSBT durations. Alternatively, the RSBT may be changed if CRV < αPRV or if CRV > #PRV, where CRV is a current reference value = (current NDT/previous RSBT), PRV is a previous reference value = (previous NDT/previous RSBT), α < 1 and # > 1.

Title: Speed variable angle facet wheel for scanner
Inventor: SVETAL MICHAEL P
IPC: G06K7/10
Filed: 1999-08-05
Abstract: A scanning system and method of scanning where a polygon mirror assembly 100 has mirror facets 106 and 104 connected to abase 105. The mirror facets 106 are movable between a first position, as shown by facets 122 and 124, and a second position as shown by facets 122' and 124'. This is in order to provide a multiple reflection of angles. This movement is dependant on the rotational speed of the multifaceted polygon mirror which can be driven by a motor 110 via a shaft 111 and controlled by a controller 115. An example of this movement is shown in figure 4, an optical beam 142 is produced by a light source 140 and reflected at an angle   a   along a first outgoing path 144. When the speed of the motor 110 is increased, the facets 122 and 124 move in response to centrifugal force, by their respective connections 131 and 133, to the second position and a second outgoing path 146 is produced at an angle   b  .

Title: Disk image backup/restore with data preparation phase
Inventor: MCCALL COLIN DAVID
IPC: G06F12/00
Filed: 1999-08-24
Abstract: A method for backing up data stored using a filing system on a computer non-volatile storage device, such that the backup is completed without access to the filing system, but areas of the storage device which are not in use by the filing system are not backed up. In a preparation phase, pre-defined signature data are written, using the filing system, to substantially all of the unused portions of the storage device (Fig. 2). In a second phase, the data stored on the storage device are backed up, independent of the filing system, but data consisting of the pre-defined signature are not backed up. In an alternative embodiment (Fig. 4), all the data, including the signature data, are backed up, but data compression is used to save space and the signature is made highly compressible such that the unused space is compressed to take up very little space on the backup storage medium. Another embodiment additionally addresses the problem of personalisation of some files associated with a target operating system before the target operating system boots (Figs. 6-8).

Patent GB-190021287-A (GB)
IPC: E21D15/44
Abstract: 21,287. Daelen, R. Nov. 24. Moulding-presses.-Relates to means for avoiding the use of leather and like packing in presses and other hydraulic apparatus ; also to the use of a yielding solid in the working-chamber of presses and other power-transmitting apparatus for the same purpose. By these means durability can be secured with far higher pressures than those which limit the use of leather and other packing. Fig. 1 shows in section the employment of a hollow elastic body c, to the interior of which fluid is admitted under pressure, so as to transmit pressure to the plunger b. Owing to the continuous form of the bag c, no packing is required to keep the working-chamber a fluid-tight. Fig. 5 shows a form of the invention in which a bowl-shaped elastic body c is used. The edge g of the bowl is fixed in the working-chamber a by a ring f. Fig. 6 shows the use of a solid elastic body c interposed between the pressure piston b and the working- piston h and completely filling the working-chamber a. Fig. 7 shows the use of a hollow elastic body c used as a substitute for the plunger, punch or die of a moulding or stamping press, for pressing a plate i into the matrix x.

Title: Two-piece excrement collecting unit and connector ring
Inventor: LAVENDER MICHAEL R
IPC: A61F5/445
Filed: 1992-03-30
Abstract: A two-piece ostomy appliance having a pair of coupling rings that detachably connect a collection pouch and an adhesive faceplate. One of the coupling rings, preferably the faceplate coupling ring (14), is provided with a substantially non-compressible insert (14, 16) that includes an axially-extending collar (35), a bulbous non-deformable wedge body (36), and a radially-extending pivot stem (37) that centrally connects the collar and wedge body. The pivot stem allows limited forward and rearward rocking movement of the wedge body about a pivot axis extending through the stem. A massive front portion of the wedge body has an inwardly and rearwardly curved bearing surface of progressively increasing distance from the pivot axis so that the radial width of the insert decreases as the wedge body rocks rearwardly and forceably increases as it rocks forwardly about the axis, in response to frictional engagement with the walls of the channel, when coupling and uncoupling forces are exerted on the rings. <IMAGE>
