Abstract: In a wireless communication device (106) a method of detecting a narrowband jamming signal (404) includes receiving a wireless communication signal (104) and downconverting the wireless communication signal (104) to an intermediate frequency (IF) signal (525). IF signal (525) is digitized to provide a digital signal (527). Digital signal (527) is despread, demodulated and monitored for the number of phase transitions (562) occurring during a time interval (556). The method further includes comparing the number of phase transitions (562) during the time interval (556) with a threshold value (560) and determining that the wireless communication signal (104) is not the narrowband jamming signal (404) if the number of phase transitions (562) during the time interval (556) exceeds the threshold value (560), or determining that the wireless communication signal (104) is the narrowband jamming signal (404) if the number of phase transitions (562) during the time interval (556) is less than the threshold value (560).

Abstract: A discharge valve mechanism (40) has discharge openings (29a, 29b). The number of discharge openings (29a, 29b) to be placed in the open state is varied depending on the pressure and the flow rate of gas refrigerant discharged from a compression chamber (25).

Abstract: This invention relates to a device and a method of representing a transfer of data between a main memory and a storage device in a storage system. The invention uses scatter gather lists to describe the data area of both the main memory and of the storage device that are relevant for the data transfer. Further is a direction indicator used to specify whether the disk location is source and the part of the main memory is destination or the other way around. Preferably a surplus previously un-used bit is used as the direction indicator. In this way, an efficient way of handling read, write and/or modify processes is enabled. Further, no actual data is moved during CPU processing, since only references to the data, i.e. tuples, are copied between SGLs which greatly reduces storage and bandwidth requirements. Further, the invention also relates to an efficient way of performing sector alignment using scatter gather lists where, whereby dependency of the CPU is decoupled from the much slower disk/storage input/output

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil endoscopique autopropulsé, fait d'un toroïde souple rempli de liquide et d'un châssis en U motorisé ou capable de recevoir une force motrice. L'appareil peut servir à faire avancer divers dispositifs accessoires dans des volumes et des environnements de forme générale tubulaire, pour des applications médicales et non médicales. Lorsque l'appareil et introduit dans un espace ou un environnement tubulaire tel que le colon d'un patient subissant une coloscopie, l'appareil avance sous l'effet du mouvement du toroïde. La surface du toroïde circule autour d'elle-même en un mouvement continu partant de sa cavité centrale le long de son axe central vers l'extérieur où sa surface circule en sens opposé, jusqu'à ce qu'elle revienne tourner dans sa cavité centrale. Au fur et à mesure de la progression du dispositif dans les lumières anatomiques de diverses dimensions, formes et contours, le toroïde se comprime et de dilate de façon à épouser la forme de l'environnement et d'y naviguer. Le mouvement du toroïde peut être entraîné par un moteur ou s'effectuer sans moteur, le sens et la vitesse pouvant être contrôlés. L'appareil peut également servir au transport de divers accessoires en des points choisis à l'intérieur d'espaces et d'environnements tubulaires, dans le cas où on est susceptible d'effectuer des interventions médicales et non médicales.
