Abstract: The accuracy of the location estimate of a Wireless Location System is dependent, in part, upon both the transmitted power of the wireless transmitter and the length in time of the transmission from the wireless transmitter. In general, higher power transmissions and transmissions of greater transmission length can be located with better accuracy by the Wireless Location System than lower power and shorter transmissions. Wireless communications systems generally limit the transmit power and transmission length of wireless transmitters in order to minimize interference within the communications system and to maximize the potential capacity of the system. Several methods meet the conflicting needs of both systems by enabling the wireless communications system to minimize transmit power and length while enabling improved location accuracy for certain types of calls, such as wireless 9-1-1 (emergency) calls. Such methods include mobile-assisted techniques in which the mobile unit includes functionality to assist in improving location accuracy. The WLS locates the transmitter (mobile unit) while the latter is using a modified transmission sequence comprising a message sent from the wireless transmitter using transmission parameters different from the normal transmission parameters broadcast on the forward control channel by the base stations in the associated wireless communications system. A trigger event, such as the user dialing 9-1-1, causes the mobile unit to operate in the mode in which the modified transmission sequence is used.

Abstract: A hybrid ARQ scheme is used incremental data packet combining. In an example embodiment, the hybrid ARQ scheme with incremental data packet combining employs three feedback signaling commands: ACK, NACK, and LOST. Using these three feedback commands, the hybrid ARQ scheme with incremental data packet combining provides both robustness and good performance. This scheme is particularly advantageous in communication systems with unreliable communication channels, e.g., a fading radio channel, where forward error correction (FEC) codes are used and some of the code symbols are more important than other code symbols. Benefits include increased throughput and decreased delay of the packet data communication.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système, un procédé et un dispositif d'isolation sélective de certains circuits intégrés sur un système de bus I2C. L'isolation sélective de certains circuits permet à ces circuits de communiquer les uns avec les autres et/ou avec d'autres composants, avec un débit de transfert de données supérieur à celui du système de bus I2C. Un commutateur fonctionne dans un mode pour isoler de manière sélective une portion auxiliaire ou séparée de I2C contenant les circuits intégrés à isoler, et il fonctionne et est opérant dans un autre mode pour permettre à la portion auxiliaire d'I2C de faire partie du système principal de bus I2C. Des résistances adéquates de polarisation à l'alimentation, associées au commutateur, sont utiles pour permettre un débit de transfert de données plus rapide, par accélération de la transition montante servant à commander les circuits intégrés isolés.

Abstract: A system and method for determining the lay length of S-Z stranded buffer tubes during the manufacturing process of a fiber optic cable without slowing down the manufacturing process. Images of an S-Z stranded buffer tube are captured with a camera. The images are sent from the camera to a computer workstation. The computer workstation displays the images taken with the camera and executes programming modules that calculate the lay length of the S-Z stranded buffer tube during the manufacturing process of the cable. Input devices such as a mouse and a keyboard may be used in conjunction with the operations of the computer workstation. By measuring the lay length during cable manufacture, productivity may be maintained while ensuring that the stranding of buffer tubes does not fall out of tolerance, which might result in deleterious bending stress of optical fibers within the buffer tubes. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An ink jet printer includes an ink container supplying ink through a tube member to a separate print head to form an image in a width direction of a recording medium. The ink jet printer includes a guide rail to guide the print head, a transport roller to feed the recording medium, and a cover to prevent the tube member from contacting the roller. As the print head reciprocates the tube protruding from a surface of the print head on an end side in a moving direction thereof bends or flexes when the print head moves together with a carriage. The bending of the tube in the rearward direction is restricted by a tube band contacting a transport roller and a cover. The cover and a guide rail form a plane vertical to a platen at front faces of the cover and the guide. When the bending or movement of the tube is blocked or restricted by the vertical plane to a tube bending direction, the tube is not raised. Therefore, a resistance is not applied to the print head during the movement of the print head Thus, the bending or movement of the tube can be restricted without providing a special device for the ink j <IMAGE>
