Title: Adaptive digital beamformer coefficient processor for satellite signal interference reduction
Inventor: AL-DHAHIR NAOFAL
IPC: G01S19/23
Filed: 2002-04-17
Abstract: Filter coefficients of a beamformer are computed based on a segment of input samples. The segment of input samples is divided into a plurality of blocks of input samples wherein the plurality of blocks of input samples are received by a shared memory at a first rate. The first block of the plurality of blocks is received in the shared memory at a first time. The plurality of blocks of input samples from the shared memory are read out at a second rate wherein the first block of the plurality of blocks is read from the shared memory at a second time. A plurality of partial covariance matrices for the plurality of blocks read from the shared memory are computed and added together to determine a covariance matrices used to compute the filter coefficients.

Title: Provisioning of emergency services in a voice-over-packet environment
Inventor: CARON GUY
IPC: H04L12/66
Filed: 2004-11-12
Abstract: The delivery of emergency services to users of a set of communication devices in a packet-switched network is enabled by a method that determines a routing key corresponding to a particular directory number that is associated with a particular communication device, and stores the directory number and the corresponding routing key in a database accessible to a packet switch. The steps of determining and storing are executed during a provisioning phase, in the absence of an emergency call placed by the communication device. The routing key is indicative of routing instructions to be followed by the packet switch upon receipt of a future emergency call placed by the communication device. When the call is received by the packet switch, it will consult the database to obtain the routing key associated with the directory number and send the call as well as the routing key over a path dedicated to emergency calls.

Inventor: LADD PATRICK
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 2005-05-31
Abstract: Apparatus and methods for improved software programming interface functionality in a network. In one exemplary embodiment, the network comprises an HFC cable network with CPE in which network-specific programming interfaces (e.g., APIs) may be downloaded to the CPE, registered, authenticated, stored and executed in a software protocol stack implementing OpenCable Application Platform (OCAP) or Multimedia Home Platform (MHP) standards. The host device software comprises a "manager" module that registers APIs identified by the OCAP Monitor Application, such that all applications launched thereafter on the device can use these communications APIs, provided they have the appropriate permission(s). This relieves individual applications from having to support details regarding network-specific protocols and APIs. In an alternate embodiment, class and data files associated with the API functionality are downloaded along with an application. The downloaded application registers the API using a modified version of the API using a description file (DF). The DF describes the class and data files provided with the application that are part of the registered API.

Title: Shift control apparatus for continuously variable transmission
Inventor: KOJIMA HIROYUKI
IPC: B60L50/10
Filed: 2005-06-01
Abstract: To provide a shift control apparatus for a continuously variable transmission ensuring an operating feel similar to that during ordinary running regardless of remaining charge of a battery. In step S1, remaining charge M of a battery is detected. If it is determined that a vehicle is in a stationary state in step S2, the control proceeds to step S3. In step S3, the remaining charge M is compared with a reference remaining charge Mref. If it is determined that the remaining charge M is lower than the reference remaining charge Mref, the control proceeds to step S4. In step S4, it is determined whether the current shift pattern is a first pattern or a second pattern. The first pattern is adopted when the remaining charge is sufficient. The second pattern is adopted when the remaining charge is insufficient. If the current shift pattern is one other than the second pattern, then the control proceeds to step S5. In step S5, the shift pattern is changed from the current first pattern to the second pattern.
