Title: Hovercraft segmented skirt inner attachment arrangement
Inventor: TURNER DANIEL GEORGE WARREN
IPC: B60V1/16
Filed: 2010-12-14
Abstract: A hovercraft or air cushion vehicle is supported by a plurality of pressurised segments 1 making up a flexible skirt. The U-shaped segments are attached via a front face 2 to an outer part of the main structure 7 and attached via an inner attachment plate 3 to an inner attachment point 8 on the main structure. The inner attachment plate 3 comprises a separate plate (fig 5) which is sandwiched between an inner end of the segment side and a folded flange attached to that segment side. When pressurised, the side 4 of one segment expands to press against the side 5 of an adjacent segment. This arrangement allows the sides of the U-shaped segments to expand when under pressure creating the outer barrier for the cushion of the pressurised gaseous fluid and improves the inner attachment method of connection to the main structure, improves transfer of loads from the segment to the main structure, helps the individual segment to maintain is geometry, stability and reduces the amount of material required to achieve the same effect.

Title: Apparatus and methods for ion mobility spectrometry
Inventor: MAKAROV ALEXANDER
IPC: G01N27/62
Filed: 2012-02-21
Abstract: A method of ion mobility spectrometry comprising the steps of introducing a packet of ions into a drift space 62, passing the ions through the drift space 62 wherein the ions separate according to their ion mobility and reflecting/deflecting 38, 48 the ions that have passed through the drift space 62 back into the drift space 62 wherein the ions can further separate according to their ion mobility. The reflecting/deflecting 38, 48 takes place in a region at lower pressure than the drift space 62. The drift space 62 may be re-used multiple times to extend the separation path length and high resolution of ion separation may be achieved. The method may enable switching between modes of different resolution and separation speed. The regions of low pressure 38, 48 allow inertial ion motion wherein the mean free path between ion collisions with gas is significantly longer than in the stages of ion mobility separation. The low pressure reflecting/deflecting region 38, 38 enables a time of flight focusing of ions to be provided without ion mobility separation occurring therein.

Title: CQI feedback using two different sub-band bandwidths
Inventor: MAATTANEN HELKA-LIINA
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2013-01-18
Abstract: Conventional LTE allows per sub-band reporting of channel quality indicators (CQI), where one sub-band consists of N physical resource blocks (PRBs). According to the present invention a UE reports channel state information (CSI) such as CQI for primary sub-bands 110, each comprising N PRBs. At least one (but not all) of the primary subbands is further divided into secondary sub-bands 120, each secondary sub-band comprising M PRBs where M is less than N. CQI is reported for each of the secondary sub-bands. This provides a finer frequency-domain granularity than would be available with conventional per sub-band reporting with N PRBs in each sub-band, but less overhead than would be required for conventional per-subband reporting with M PRBs in each sub-band. In various embodiments, either the UE or the network can select which of the primary sub-bands are subject to finer granularity reporting. The selection can be for example the best primary sub-bands or those with the highest variance in a measure of channel quality or random. In a differential reporting embodiment the secondary sub-band CQIs 120a are reported relative to the primary sub-band CQI 110a.
