Title: Multi-access communication in which plural transmissions share timing and frequency resources but have different waveforms or propagation characteristics
Inventor: FEBVRE PAUL
IPC: H04B1/00
Filed: 2008-12-18
Abstract: A wireless multiple access method allows multiple transmitters to access the same channels so that substantial interference occurs. The receivers use multi-user detection (MUD) to separate and decode the transmissions. Different propagation and/or transmission characteristics between the transmitters help to distinguish the transmissions at the receiver. The transmitters may add random variation to their transmission timing, power and/or frequency to assist with decoding. The transmitters may be co-located on a single transmitting device or may be associated with respective mobile devices. Preferably the transmitters use low rate turbo coding and the receiver turbo MUD. The applicants refer to the system as Turbo CDMA (TCDMA).

Title: New azo colouring matters
IPC: C09B63/00
Filed: 1950-04-24
Abstract: Metallic salts of 1-phenyl- and 1-tolyl-3-methyl - 4 - carboxyphenylazo - (31 - chloro - 61) 5-pyrazolone are mixed with heated plastic materials for colouring them.  The materials may be synthetic resins or cellulose ethers or esters, e.g. polyethylene, polystyrene, urea-formaldehyde condensates, acrylates (such as polymethylmethacrylate) and cellulose acetate. When using thermosetting resins the heating must be controlled to prevent premature hardening.  Sodium, potassium, calcium, barium, strontium, magnesium, zinc, lead, manganese and aluminium salts of the dyestuffs may be used.  The mixing with the plastic may be carried out in the presence of plasticizers or other liquids, e.g. water, ethanol or acetone.  A white pigment such as titanium oxide may be added to give translucent or opaque shades.  In examples: (1) polystyrene is melted with the calcium salt of 1-phenyl-3-methyl - 4 - (31 - chloro - 61 - carboxyphenylazo)-5-pyrazolone; (2) as in (1) with the addition of titanium dioxide; (3) a mixture of cellulose acetate, dimethyl phthalate and the colouring matter of (1) is masticated on heated rollers.  According to the Provisional Specification the process is also applicable to phenol-formaldehyde resins.ALSO:The invention comprises the metallic salts of 1-phenyl- and 1-tolyl-3-methyl-4-(31-chloro-61 - carboxyphenylazo) - 5 - pyrazolone, such as calcium, strontium, barium, magnesium, zinc, lead, manganese, aluminium, sodium and potassium salts.  The last two are made by coupling diazotized 4-chloroanthranilic acid with the appropriate pyrazolone in the presence of caustic soda or potash. The other salts are prepared from these by double decomposition or by coupling in the presence of a soluble salt of the appropriate metal. Examples show the production of the sodium salts of the phenyl and p-tolyl compounds and the calcium and strontium salts of the former. Rosin lakes may be obtained by adding a rosin soap to the coupling mixture before double decomposition with a salt of the laking metal.

Title: Improvements in acetylene generators
IPC: C10H9/00
Filed: 1947-04-16
Abstract: A carbide basket or the carbide itself is placed within and rests on the flow of an acetylene generating chamber in which terminates a narrow duct or port which communicates with a water supply tank open to the atmosphere and containing water which is higher than said duct or port.  The pressure of the gas generated is determined by the water level in the tank, and the tank is arranged so that the water level is kept substantially constant in relation to the gas chamber during the operation of the generator, e.g. by moving the water supply tank upwards or downwards.  A compensating reservoir which receives the gas generated after the cessation of the demand, may be provided under the bottom of the gas generating chamber between the duct or port and the water supply tank.  The gas generating chamber may be cooled, e.g. by means of a water jacket which may be the water supply tank itself, and the water may be circulated in the jacket by a thermo-syphon arrangement.  The water supply <FORM:0627435/IV (b)/1> <FORM:0627435/IV (b)/2> tank may have an upper section of greater area than the lower section, the gas generating chamber and compensating reservoir being preferably located inside such a tank, the gas generating chamber being preferably of one piece construction having a removable base provided with a narrow orifice, the sealing joint of the gas generating chamber being immersed in the water.  The removable base may be formed by the top of the enclosure forming the compensating reservoir.  The generating chamber may be attached to the tank to prevent it floating on the water.  The acetylene generator may include a condenser on the gas outlet to collect water carried over by the gas and a syphon to return such water to the supply tank.  In Figs. 1 and 2, the carbide is contained in a basket 2 inside the gas generating chamber 1 into which a narrow duct 3 passes for the admission of water from the balancing reservoir 6 which is connected to the water supply tank. In Fig. 1, the gas generating chamber is cooled by water in jacket 10 and in Fig. 2 by the water supply tank 25.

Title: Variable-speed transmission
IPC: F16H47/06
Filed: 1948-04-12
Abstract: 664,497. Centrifugal governors. PACKARD MOTOR CAR CO. April 12, 1948 [April 12, 1947], No. 10117/48. Class 57 [Also in Group XXIV] A centrifugal governor E, driven by the output shaft of a motor-vehicle change-speed gear, which it automatically controls, is supplied with oil at an inlet 598 by a constantpressure pump 577 driven by the governor shaft 346, and supplies speed-responsive pressure to an outlet 576, leading to ratiocontrolling shift - valves 508, 548, under control of an axially-slidable inner valve-element 604, which is moved upwardly, in opposition to governed outlet pressure acting on its upper face, by centrifugal masses 618 pivoted at 620 on the governorshaft. Initially the masses act upwardly on the valve-element 604 through a spring 614 and the linkage is such that over this range the governed pressure is proportional to the first power of the vehicle-speed. Above a predetermined vehicle-speed (53 m.p.h.) a pin 617, actuated by the masses, contacts the valve-element 604, which is thereby moved positively by the masses, resulting in further increase in governed pressure being proportional to the second power of the speed.
