Abstract: The invention relates to a rotary hearth furnace for heat-treating workpieces, comprising a rotary hearth (1) which has a rotary drive mechanism (2). An inner wall (8) and an outer wall (3) form a ring-shaped furnace area (5) between them, said furnace area being divided into at least two treatment areas by at least one vertically displaceable door. According to the invention, said rotary hearth is configured in the form of a rotary table. The inner wall (8) is fixed to the roof (4) and is suspended above the rotary table (1). Said inner wall (8) preferably extends as far as the top surface of the rotary table (1), forming a gap (9). A sealing element (10) is provided for sealing this gap. The inventive furnace has a simple construction since it only has one outward gap seal. The rotary hearth furnace can be built with relatively small pitch diameters and enables heat treatment to take place in different treatment areas that are separated by doors.

IPC: G02B26/02

Abstract: An optical switching arrangement (84), preferably an add/drop
switch, provides a high degree of flexibility in manipulating optical signals by
utilizing switching units (118, 120, 122 and 124) that are mirror images of
each other. The switching units are toggled between transmissive states and
reflective states by the manipulation of index-matching fluid within trenches.
In a first set of switching units, the trenches are offset in one direction relative
to crosspoints of waveguides (112) through which optical signals are
propagated. In the second set of switching units (122 and 124), the trenches
are offset in the opposite direction. As a result, the reflection characteristics
of the first set of switching units are the mirror image of the reflection
characteristics of the second set of switching units. In the preferred add/drop
switching application, any one of a number of input ports (86, 88, 90 and 92)
can be optically coupled to any one of a number of drop ports (102 and 104)
and any one of a number of add ports (106 and 108) can be optically coupled
to any one of a number of output ports (94, 96, 98 and 100). Also in the
preferred application, the paths from the input ports to the associated output
ports are identical with respect to path lengths and the number of trenches
that must be traversed, so that an optical signal will experience the same
insertion loss regardless of the particular input-to-output path that it follows.

Abstract: In a cellular communication system (10), such an EDGE Compact system
supporting discontinuous downlink control channel transmissions (12), a
multiframe control channel (100) contains a multiplicity of signalling blocks
(B0-B11) partitioned by bursts associated with frequency correction (CFCCH)
and synchronisation (CSCH). A scanning subscriber unit (64-70) wishing to
access the cellular system (10) is designed to take power measurements of an
incident frequency environment to identify a cell capable of providing service to
the subscriber unit. With downlink control channel transmissions sent at full
power by a serving base station (42-56), the multiframe (100) is structured to
ensure that signalling blocks (B0, B3, B6, B9) are regularly transmitted
throughout the multiframe (100). Additionally, with regard to particularly
significant control signalling blocks, such as those of a broadcast control
(CPBCCH) and a paging (CPCCH) nature, these are sequenced into the
multiframe (100) such that any variation in a basic distribution of such control
blocks in the multiframe follows an underlying pattern. In other words, in relation
to CPBCCH and CPCCH logical channels, there is a fixed allocation scheme of
control signalling block transmissions, although interlacing may vary the exact
content of each block according to a defined transmission sequence between
CPBCCH and CPCCH.

Abstract: A system and method for unifying and handling network
messages of various communication protocols from various
mobile systems. The network messages are being handled at a
home system for the various mobile systems. A gateway cluster
has a number of gateways of different types of communication
protocols. The gateway cluster receives the network messages
of the respective communication protocols at the home system.
The respective gateways convert the network messages to
normalized messages by querying the categories, the data, and
the network types of the normalized data for the mobile
systems from which the network messages were respectively
generated therefrom. A database system stores normalized data
in categories. The normalized data at least includes data
relating to the mobile systems and network types for the data.
A unified mobility manager is coupled to and in communications
with the gateway cluster and the database system. The unified
mobility manager receives and processes the normalized
messages, performs operations based on the normalized messages
and on the categories, the data, and the network types of the
normalized data, and formulates normalized responses
responsive to the normalized messages. The normalized
responses are converted to network responses at the gateways
and the network responses are sent to the respective mobile
systems. A normalized data structure is provided for the
normalized data, and the data structure generally comprises
network message data, a category type for the data, and a
network type that is reflective of the communication protocol
from the network message.

Abstract: A method of monitoring exhaust gas flow through an
exhaust system of an internal combustion engine comprises
the steps of generating a flow efficiency value (K E ),
comparing the flow efficiency value to a reference
efficiency value, and if the reference efficiency value is
exceed by a predetermined amount, then setting a flow fault
indicator flag. In one aspect of the invention, the flow
efficiency value is generated as a ratio of the magnitude of
the exhaust gas flow restriction, and the mass flux through
the engine. The magnitude of the exhaust gas flow
restriction is represented by the pressure drop across the
exhaust system, and the mass flux through the engine is
determined as a function of the mass airflow rate and
exhaust gas density. The resulting flow efficiency value
(K E ) is a non-dimensional parameter that characterises the
level of restriction in the exhaust system independent of
the engine operating conditions.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for receiving transmitted signals in the presence of CW interference in a communication system that determines the presence of a code in a received signal by comparing with a detector threshold calculations made in accordance with a sample of a received signal. Such systems include but are not limited to those incorporating a Sequential Probability Ratio Test. The method includes obtaining a first input power value of the received signal at a first sample time and obtaining a second input power value of the received signal at a second sample time. The first and second power values are compared in order to provide an input sample comparison and the forgoing steps are repeated in order to provide a plurality of input sample comparisons. The detector threshold is adjusted in accordance with the plurality of sample comparisons. The CW signal can be strongly correlated with a short code used for the acquisition purposes. Therefore in the CDMA systems if the received signal contains a CW signal, then the strong correlation between the CW signal and the short code used for acquisition may result in a false alarm. To prevent this, the following algorithm is suggested to be used for the cancellation of CW, if there is a CW signal present in the received CDMA signal.
