Inventor: FORSSELL MIKA
IPC: H04W88/14
Filed: 1999-02-11
Abstract: A method of transmitting data in a packet radio network to a mobile station (MS) performing a routing area update and wherein the network comprises at least a first support node (SGSN1) and a second support node (SGSN2). The first support node relays data from the packet radio network to the mobile station. In response to receiving from the second support node a request for the context data of the mobile station, which indicates a routing area update in respect of the mobile station, the first support node sends, from its memory, data addressed to the mobile station to the second support node. When the routing area is being updated, the first support node delays data transmission until a condition is fulfilled, wherein the condition is defined such that upon the fulfilment of the condition it is at least probable that the second support node has at its disposal the context data of the mobile station. The support node and the program carrier performing the routing area update are also described.

Title: A system for unitized, post-tensioned masonry structures
Inventor: MARSH ROGER F
IPC: E04C5/08
Filed: 2006-05-05
Abstract: A mortar less masonry structure comprising a plurality of regular masonry blocks and/or bricks connected to each other by a plurality of metal bars and a plurality of standard metal threaded fasteners thereby forming a post tensioned structure. Preferably, the blocks are operatively connected to each other as a structure by simple mechanical tools. Each interconnection results in a unitized post tensioned member that, when interconnected to the adjacent members, forms a comparatively higher strength structure than systems made of mortar and reinforced mortar. The method used to create this structure is a simple, waterless, mortar less interconnection process that is completed by a series of simple individual steps of fastening the blocks and bars into a strong and durable structure. Once connected the structure is strong and durable. If desired, the structure may be disassembled and the components be re-used.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining the direction of borehole azimuthal offset and the borehole radius of curvature. Rotation rate of a borehole assembly is measured and mathematically converted into azimuthal torque imparted to the borehole assembly. Relative azimuthal offset is determined from variations in azimuthal torque over a rotation cycle of the borehole assembly. Relative radius of curvature is obtained from the magnitude of azimuthal torque over a rotation cycle. Relative azimuthal offset is converted to true azimuthal offset using an independent reference angle measurement. Relative borehole curvature is converted to true radius of curvature using a calibration constant determined in known borehole conditions.
