Title: Method for providing a video data streaming service
Inventor: SULL WON HEE
IPC: H04N7/24
Filed: 2002-11-22
Granted: 2008-02-05
Abstract: In a method for providing a video data streaming service, a server determines whether an occupancy is below a first threshold or is equal to or greater than a second threshold, the occupancy representing the amount of data occupying a queuing buffer of a terminal and the first threshold being less than the second threshold. If the occupancy is not below the first threshold, the server provides the data streaming service at a predetermined service bit rate which is less than the current service bit rate. If the occupancy is equal to or greater than a second threshold, the server provides the data streaming service at a predetermined service bit rate which is greater than the current service bit rate.

Patent CA-2496605-C (CA)
Inventor: AGRAWAL AVNEESH
IPC: H04J13/18

Granted: 2008-08-19
Abstract: A system and method for enabling multiple transmitters (400) to share a single code division multiplexed (CDM) or code division multiple access (CDMA) channel using orthogonal waveforms. A set of orthogonal channelizing codes W i(t) is generated, and each transmitter (400) is allocated orthogonal channelizing codes and pseudonoise polynomials in a predetermined manner. The transmitters channelize each user signal using an orthogonal channelizing code W i(t), and spread each user signal using a pseudonoise (PN) spreading code. Each transmitter employs the same PN spreading codes and time off-sets. Additionally, no one orthogonal channelizing code is assigned to more than one transmitter during the time period they are sharing a CDM channel. The spread signals are summed at each transmitter (404) prior to transmission as a composite signal. The offsets are time-precorrected (406, 510) to ensure time alignment at the receivers. The frequencies of the signals are precorrected (408, 512) to ensure frequency alignment at the receivers.

Title: Apparatus for non-invasive mechanical ventilation
Inventor: ALBERTELLI ROBERTO
IPC: A61M16/06
Filed: 2004-05-14
Granted: 2014-07-15
Abstract: An apparatus (1) for non-invasive mechanical ventilation comprises a fan (2) of Bi-level type, or BiPAP, for generating an air flow according to a succession of inspiration steps, or IPAP, and exhalation steps, or EPAP. The flow is conveyed in the aerial ducts of a patient (25) by means of a flexible tube (3) connected to a nasal mask (4). A flexible air reservoir (5) is provided pneumatically connected to the duct (3) and the nasal mask (4) in order to subtract from the inspiration flow a certain air amount before that it reaches the patient (25) at the beginning of an IPAP step. During the exhalation EPAP step, since the air flow pressure decreases automatically, there is the emptying at least partial of the flexible air reservoir (5), whereas the air exhaled by the patient exits through an opening (14) made on the nasal mask (4). This way an air exchange occurs also in the most peripheral patient's aerial ducts and the amount of gaseous exchanges is increased, reducing at the same time the duration of the treatment.

Abstract: A robot control system 2 for controlling a position and an attitude of a robot head 1a is provided with an operating head 3 held by an operator and a sensor 4 for detecting a position and an attitude of the operating head. An attitude recognition portion 24 of the control means recognizes an initial attitude of the operating head when a control switch 12 provided at the operating head is turned on, and acquires a displacement vector from the initial attitude by a change in the attitude of the operating head. An attitude conversion portion25 converts the displacement vector from the initial attitude to a displacement vector from the reference attitude corresponding to a predetermined reference attitude, and the control means makes the attitude of the robot head follow the displacement vector from the reference attitude. In whatever attitude the operator holds the operating head, the position and the attitude of the robot head can follow the change in the position and the attitude of the operating head.

Abstract: Thermoset polymer particles are used in many applications requiring lightweight particles possessing high stiffness, strength, temperature resistance, and/or resistance to aggressive environments. The present invention relates to the use of methods to enhance the stiffness, strength, maximum possible use temperature, and environmental resistance of such particles. One method of particular interest is the application of post-polymerization process step(s) (and especially heat treatment) to advance the curing reaction and to thus obtain a more densely crosslinked polymer network. The most common benefits of said heat treatment are the enhancement of the maximum possible use temperature and the environmental resistance. The present invention also relates to the development of thermoset polymer particles. It also relates to the further improvement of the key properties (in particular, heat resistance and environmental resistance) of said particles via post-polymerization heat treatment. Furthermore, it also relates to processes for the manufacture of said particles. Finally, it also relates to the use of said particles in the construction, drilling, completion and/or fracture stimulation of oil and natural gas wells;  for example, as a proppant partial monolayer, a proppant pack, an integral component of a gavel pack completion, a ball bearing, a solid lubricant, a drilling mud constituent, and/or a cement additive.
