Abstract: The present invention relates to a receiver structure (1) for a wireless communication
device and a processing method for processing a received bit stream in a wireless
communication device. The receiver structure (1) according to the present invention
comprises a correlation means (8) for correlating a received bit stream and for obtaining
a delay profile of said received bit stream, selecting means (9) for selecting at least one
multipath component from said received bit stream on the basis of the obtained delay
profile and for assigning each selected multipath component to a respective one of a
number of receiver paths (6a to 61), in which the multipath components are further
processed, and combining means (7) for combining the processed multipath components
output from said receiver path. The selecting means (9) selects the number of multipath
components on the basis of a threshold value calculated from the delay profile, whereby
the threshold value is calculated on the basis of a mean value of the entire delay profile. 
     The present invention allows for a more effective calculation of the threshold value and
a reduced complexity of the receiver structure (1).

Abstract: A wafer chuck (1) for semiconductor wafer manufacturing has a
surface (10) for the accommodation of a semiconductor wafer
(12). The surface has a concave shape. The wafer, especially
with a diameter of more than 300 mm, normally has a concave

chuck surface (10) the perimeter edge (17) of the wafer (12)
always touches the hot surface (10) of the chuck (1) first,
so that the wafer is flattened thereby avoiding a movement of
the wafer on the hot chuck surface (10).

Abstract: The ZnS-series sintered material of the present
invention includes ZnS as a main component and niobium
oxide. The content of the niobium oxide in the sintered
material is preferably in the range from more than 5 to 50 %
by weight, in terms of Nb 2 O 5 . The sintered material can be
used as the sputtering target. Since this target has a low
resistance, it is possible to deposit a thin film using this
target by direct current (DC) sputtering. By employing the
DC sputtering, the deposition rate of the thin film can be
increased. The resultant thin film is used as a protecting
layer for protecting a recording layer in an optical
recording medium for recording a signal of a laser beam.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for use in a cleaning
installation for removing soot or similar inside deposits in a flow
channel (9) of a processing system such as a boiler, heat exchanger,
flue gas filter or the like, by intermittently blasting a fluid or
gaseous medium into the processing system, said device (1) comprising a
flow passage (5) between associated valve means (1) and the flow channel
(9), wherein the flow passage (5) is provided with an inlet (8) allowing
for a continuous flow of protective gas around the flow passage (5) into
the flow channel (9) of the processing system. By the present invention,
corrosion is reduced since a cushion of air is generated at the end (15)
of the flow passage (5) during the off-cycles of the cleaning operation
as air is constantly drawn or forced in through the inlet (8). This
means that the components are covered by this cushion and protected
against the corrosive gasses in the heat exchanger or the like. Hereby,
the valve means (1) are protected from corrosion and tests have shown a
significant improvement in durability of the exposed components facing
the inside of the boiler or the like.

Abstract: A strut (10) or strut system continuously adjustable in length for maintaining two
bodies in a spaced relationship with respect to each other. Both the length of the strut (10) and the
locking of the strut (10) at a desired length may be remotely controlled by pneumatic pressure.
The strut system includes a cylindrical outer member (24) having a cylindrical bore for receiving
a cylindrical inner member (22). The cylindrical inner member (22) is provided with a helical groove (42) for
engagement with ball bearings (40) which are retained in a helical pattern in a collar (30) attached to
the end of the cylindrical outer member (24) which receives the cylindrical inner member (22). The
collar (30) is adjustable between a first position in which the ball bearings (40) are engaged in the
helical groove (42) in the cylindrical inner member (22) and a second position in which they are
disengaged from the helical groove (42) in the cylindrical inner member (22). When the ball bearings (40) are
engaged in the helical groove (42) in the cylindrical inner member (22), the cylindrical inner and outer
members (22,24) may be rotated with respect to each other to adjust the overall length of the strut (10).
Further, the strut (10) will resist a compressing force applied to the opposite ends of the strut.
When the collar (30) is in the second position with the ball bearings (40) disengaged from the helical
groove (42) in the cylindrical inner member (22), the cylindrical inner and outer members (22,24) may be freely
reciprocated with respect to each other. Pneumatic pressure may be used to adjust the collar (30)
between the two positions, and to extend the cylindrical inner and outer members (22,24) with respect
to each other.

Abstract: According to the SDMA approach, the beamformer employed at each base station of a
GSM network is designed to resolve in space the multiple co-channel users allowed in
the cell sector by generating appropriate beam patterns for each one of them.
Nevertheless, there are case where the CIR of one of the co-channel mobile users,
monitored in the base station BS, falls below a preset threshold value. In this case a
channel re-allocation is instructed for this user. This allows either tighter reuse of
channels for the same number of users in each cell/sector or an increased number of co-channel
users in each cell/sector.

Abstract: Dans cette invention, on utilise une architecture de réseau dite 'de monde petit', dans laquelle un nombre relativement petit de liaisons croisées aléatoires de noeuds ou sommets d'un réseau peuvent former des petites longueurs de trajet pour le transfert de messages entre noeuds ou sommets, dans un réseau de télécommunications/réseau informatique, quel que soit l'emplacement des processeurs. Ce principe de 'monde petit' se vérifie généralement dans des réseaux biologiques et sociaux, étant donné que ces systèmes possèdent habituellement des propriétés qui ne sont ni totalement régulières ni totalement aléatoires, mais qui se situent entre ces deux notions. L'invention porte sur l'application d'un tel principe aux réseaux de télécommunications/réseaux informatiques.
