Abstract: In a mobile communication system, interference power from adjacent cells
is effectively reduced and transmission power is limited. A transmission loss
estimation unit 202 and a transmission power estimation unit 204 estimate
transmission power necessary for transmission of a downstream signal.
According to an upstream signal from each of plurality of mobile terminal devices
to a base station, a grouping unit 206 divides a plurality of mobile terminal devices
into groups sharing a plurality of wireless resources according to the estimated
transmission powers. Downstream signals to be transmitted to mobile terminal
devices belonging to each of the groups formed by the grouping means are
transmitted simultaneously with each other. Also, priorities are set for the plurality
of wireless resources and the mobile terminal devices belonging to the groups
divided by the grouping unit 206 are assigned according to the set priorities.
Accordingly, transmission to one of the groups requiring higher transmission
power in one of cells adjacent to each other and transmission to one of the groups
requiring higher transmission power in another of the cells are performed at
different times, thereby reducing interference power received in each cell from the
adjacent cells.

Abstract: Method for operation of a redundant system comprising a multiplicity of identical processor boards operating in lockstep mode. According to the method transactions that originate outside the system are processed at the same time by parallel processing units, whether they are synchronously or asynchronously clocked, by use of hardware delay units that serve to delay the processors as necessary until they have all reached the same current transaction.  An Independent claim is made for an arrangement for synchronizing processing of external transactions by a processors in a redundant processing system that incorporates hardware delay units assigned to each processor that serve to prevent processing of a transaction until all processors have reached the same stage in program execution.

Abstract: A method for bulk separation of single-walled tubular fullerenes (100)
based on chirality is provided wherein a first step is the formation of a template
(40) on a crystalline substrate (30). The template (40) has a plurality of openings
(32) which are oriented to energetically favor adsorption of a respective plurality

chirality. Next, the template (40) is exposed to a suspension (16) of single-walled
tubular fullerenes (100) of random chiralities for adsorption of single-walled
tubular fullerenes (100) of the selected chirality into the openings (32) of
template (40). Then, the template (40) is removed from exposure to the
suspension (16) and the adsorbed single-walled tubular fullerenes (100) of the
selected chirality are removed from the template (40). The template (40) may
then be reused to adsorb further tubular fullerenes (100) of the selected chirality
from a suspension (16) of tubular fullerenes (100) of random chiralities.

Abstract: Apparatus for determining a protocol of messages traversing a signalling
link in a telecommunications network includes a memory (64) for storing one or
more predetermined characteristic of a message in the protocol that can be used
to distinguish that protocol from other protocols. A protocol auto-discovery
module (63) is coupled to the memory (64) and to a module (58) that extracts
channels from signalling link timeslots. The protocol auto-discovery module (63)
determines whether the predetermined characteristic is present in the sampled
message and identifies the signalling link as carrying messages in the particular
protocol if the predetermined characteristic is present in the sampled message.
Preferably, the identification is based on a confidence measure stored in a
channel configuration table (62) which is incremented when a message on the
signalling link is identified as being in that particular protocol and decremented
when a message is identified as being in another protocol.

IPC: A61F5/01
Filed: 2002-01-17
Abstract: A novel lower leg, ankle and foot immobilization brace in the form of a short length
leg walker. The walker provides controlled, uniform compression of the foot, ankle and
leg, while at the same time immobilizing the lower leg and foot. The immobilization
walker has a shock absorbing sole, a rigid immobilization plate designed to prevent
movement in a patient's ankle and foot, and a flexible boot portion designed to comfortably
fit around the patient's foot and lower leg. The immobilization plate and a semi-flexible
upper portion effectively immobilize the foot and ankle, while eliminating the need for a
rigid boot portion. Two shock absorbing insoles, one of soft density and a one of medium
density, allow a portion of the walker's sole to be located within the boot portion.
