Patent CA-2525008-C (CA)
Inventor: AHMED FARHAD
IPC: G01R31/36
Filed: 2005-11-01
Granted: 2009-09-29
Abstract: A method and a system for accurately reporting battery capacity that do not rely on a coulomb counter are disclosed herein. The method comprises the steps of determining if the battery is in a transition phase and determining the battery capacity based on a transition phase battery capacity model when the battery is in the transition phase. The transition phase occurs upon one of attachment of the battery to a power source and disconnection of the battery from the power source. The behaviour described by the transition phase battery capacity model approaches the behaviour of real transition phase battery capacity so as to minimize the error of the determined battery capacity. The method and system accurately report battery capacity during a transition phase from discharging to charging and a transition phase from charging to discharging.

Granted: 2012-09-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a reactor for partial oxidation of a fluid reaction mixture in the presence of a heterogeneous particulate catalyst. Said reactor comprises one or several cuboid heat-transfer sheet modules (1) which are each composed of two or several right-angled heat-transfer sheets (2), arranged parallel to each other such as to form a slit (3) which can be filled with the heterogeneous particulate catalyst and through which the fluid reaction mixture flows, the heat of reaction being absorbed by a heat carrier which flows through the heat-transfer sheets (2) and at least partially evaporates.  Said reactor also comprises a mainly cylindrical envelope (4, 15, 16) which depressurizes the heat-transfer sheet modules and fully surrounds said modules, said envelope being composed of a cylinder casing (4) and of caps (15, 16), closing said casing at both ends, the longitudinal axis of which extends parallel to the plane of said heat-transfer sheets (2). Said reactor finally comprises one or several sealing elements (7, 23), arranged so that the fluid reaction mixture flows only through the slit (3), except through the reactor interior spaces, defined by the caps (15, 16).

Abstract: Visualization of a probe when impedance-based measurement technology is being used is improved by stabilizing a dis-played image of the probe or catheter. Using a model of rea-sonable probe shapes and a matching algorithm, an erroneous probe image is adjusted so that it assumes a realistic shape on a display. A range of positional variations is also incor-porated in the model. When an apparent probe position exceeds a permissible range of motion, the probe image is constrained to a realistic position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the provision of natural-soundingphonemes and accents for text. There is provided a system that outputs phonemes and accents of texts.The system has a storage section storing a first corpus in which spellings, phonemes, and accents of a text input beforehand are recorded separately for individual segmentations of the words that are contained in the text. A text for which phonemes and accents are to be output is acquired and the first corpus is searched to retrieve at least one set of spellings that match the spellings in the text from among sets of contiguous spellings. Then, the combination of a phoneme and an accent that has a higher probability of occurrence in the first corpus than a predetermined reference probability is selected as the phonemes and accent of the text.
