Patent EP-0856649-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ITO TAKESHI
IPC: F02B61/02
Filed: 1998-01-28
Abstract: The present invention relates to a four-cycle engine comprising air intake and exhaust
passages that connect to each combustion chamber, air intake valves and exhaust
valves that open and close the air intake openings and exhaust openings into a
combustion chamber, and a throttle valve located inside the air intake passage. In order
to provide a four-cycle engine that can cleanse the exhaust gases at low costs without
decreasing the engine's output, it is suggested according to the present invention to
locate the throttle valve inside the air intake passage in such a way that the volume ratio
can be set on the basis of the overlap interval for allowing a concentration of air/fuel ratio
allowing stable engine idling.

Patent EP-0912015-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 1998-10-13
Abstract: In the method for overload control in a wireless communications network
employing On-Demand Multiple Access Fair Queuing, if the downlink/uplink buffer
occupancy of the network has exceeded a high threshold, the base station determines
if this is caused by a specific remote host or by a group of remote hosts. If caused by
a specific remote host, the base station normally sends a flow control signal to the
remote host to prevent it from sending more data, but may alternatively elect to
disconnect other remotes if the remote experiencing bad performance is of a higher
priority. The base station may additionally reduce the bandwidth shares allocated to
any remote that have indicated tolerance for a variable allocated bandwidth. If the
measured frame error rates for many remote hosts are increasing, then the base station
may elect to disconnect those remote hosts that permit service interruption in order
that more bandwidth may be allocated to the remaining users. If a majority of all
associated remote hosts experience high uplink frame error rates, the base station may
instead send a signal to a wireless hub which can coordinate the actions of other
access points. Short packets queued up for so long at the base station that they exceed
the time-to-live value allocated will be thrown away. The base station may also or
alternatively elect to disconnect some users of a lower priority or redirect them to
other nearby base stations that have a lower load. In a particular embodiment, an
uplink Frame Error Rate (FER), an average uplink bit rate, a burstiness factor of
uplink traffic, and a packet loss rate are measured at the base station for each remote
host. Similarly, a downlink Frame Error Rate is measured at each remote host and
then each FER is sent to the base station. If an overload condition exits, connections
with a Frame Error Rate that has exceeded a threshold for a specified time and that
have indicated that their connections can be interrupted are disconnected.

IPC: G06T7/20

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for analysing an electronic image signal, the signal is treated as representing one or more cells each comprising a plurality of pixels. A set of pointers is generated and sequentially set according to characteristic values related to detailed image content. The pointers are used to address a memory array and for successive frames, the value of an address in each array row indicated by the pointer corresponding to that row is updated. In this way, for each frame the characteristic values can be accumulated so that in a single operational mode, both a time history of the image, stored in a memory, is updated and an indication is produced indicative of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event not associated with image background. The characteristic values can be generated by randomly or pseudo-randomly selecting pairs of pixels and for each, generating a binary signal depending on whether or not the intensity of incident light on a predetermined one of the pair is greater than the intensity on the other. Over all the rows, the values in the addresses being updated can be summed, as well as the maximum value in each row. The ratio of the two sums can be time weighted averaged with respect to the ratios obtained from previous frames. The ratio is compared with the average and the result used to determine the occurrence or non-occurrence of a significant event within the image. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus in a forklift (1) for detecting the height
of a fork (6) in stages. Two sensors (7) are arranged
longitudinally on the mast (3). Each sensor (7) includes a
switch (10) that has two states. The state of each switch can
be changed by movement of the fork. Each switch (10) is
connected to input terminals (T 1 -T 3 ) of a controller (11). The
signal at each input terminal changes between two levels in
accordance with the state of a corresponding switch (10). A
memory (14) in the controller (11) stores data that defines
the relationship between ranges of movement of the fork (6),
or zones, and the combination of the signals. The controller
(11) judges the height of the fork (6) when the combination of
signals corresponds to a combination that exists in the data.
The controller (11) judges that there is an abnormality when
the combination does not exist in the data. This permits
detection of malfunctioning switches and a cut and a short-circuited
wiring.

Abstract: A spread spectrum receiver includes a number of rake
fingers (101) for receiving a spread spectrum signal. Each rake finger (101)
despreads the spread spectrum signal with a despreading code.
A rake combiner (102) combines the outputs of the rake fingers (101).
Control circuitry (104) sets despreading codes of a first bit sequence
to the rake fingers (101) at respective timing offsets of incremental
values so that there exists a timing difference of one chip
interval between successive rake fingers. The control circuitry (104)
then successively varies the timing offsets in search of a call
processing signal. Responsive to an output of the rake
combiner (102) indicating that the call processing signal is received,
the control circuitry (104) determines its timing offset relative to the
refererence, and sets despreading codes of a second bit
sequence to the rake fingers (101) at respective timing offsets of the
incremental values based on the determined timing offset to
receive an information signal. If the receiver loses track of the
correct timing of the information signal, the control circuitry (104)
successively varies the respective timing offsets of the rake
fingers (101) in search of the lost signal.
