Title: Method and device for drying materials
Inventor: LAUTENSCHLAGER WERNER
IPC: G05D11/10
Filed: 1999-10-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for drying materials (1) in a holding vessel (2). Air (20, 37) is guided or pumped out of the holding vessel (2). The drying process is monitored and/or influenced by measuring the relative air humidity ( phi ) of the air (37) that is guided or pumped out of the holding vessel (2) using a measuring device (7) for measuring the relative air humidity, in order to improve the control and/or regulation of the drying process and especially in order to determine the completion of the drying process more accurately. The measured value that is acquired can be used to determine the time at which the drying process is complete and to monitor and optimise, i.e. especially accelerate the drying process, by regulating further parameters thereof. The inventive method and device are also particularly suitable for drying materials or samples with an unknown water content or with an unknown composition.

Title: Combined searching and page monitoring using offline sample storage
Inventor: BUTLER BRIAN K
IPC: H04B1/7075
Filed: 1999-10-12
Abstract: A novel and improved method for performing paging is described. In one embodiment of the invention a searcher is used to detect spread spectrum signals. Samples received RF signals are stored in a sample buffer. During standby mode, the samples are gathered during paging slots assigned to the mobile. A set of searches are performed on the samples, and if pilot signals are detected additional demodulation is performed to detect paging messages. The resulting set of demodulation data may be combined to increase detection. After a page message has been detected, additional demodulation resources may be activated to processes more complete page messages, or other information channels. In one embodiment of the invention, the searcher includes a demodulator to perform quick page detection without the use of finger elements to reduce idle mode power consumption.

Patent AU-1305988-A (AU)
Title: Pump control system
Inventor: MADSEN KAY
IPC: F04B49/20
Filed: 1988-03-11
Abstract: A pump control system is described in which the pumping mechanism causes corresponding movement of a pair of capacitor plates (64,66). The plates are energized by an a.c. signal, and the signal produced by the plates is amplitude detected, with the amplitude modulation representing pumping force. The pumping force is converted to pumping pressure. The pumping pressure peak during pumping and the pressure minimum during filling are detected to determine the portion of a pumping cycle required to make the transition between these two pressure levels. The difference between the two pressure levels divided by the transition portion of the pumping cycle gives a measure of the compliance of the pump chamber. The ratio of the compliance measure to the total cycle, when multiplied by the nominal chamber volume, gives a measure of unpumped volume, which is subtracted from the nominal volume to give the volume actually pumped during a pump cycle. The volume pumped is compared with a desired flow rate to determine a speed control value for the motor of the pumping mechanism. A motor control signal is developed by subtracting from a constant number a value which is a factor of the speed control value and the position of the motor.
