Abstract: A method and apparatus for acquiring timing signals for use in a positioning receiver using timing assistance provided by a wireless communications system, such as cellular telephone system. A mobile terminal equipped with a positioning receiver operates in a wireless communications system having control channels and at least one traffic channel unsynchronized to the control channels. The mobile terminal camps on a first control channel in a first cell having a first time base associated therewith. While camped on the control channel, the mobile terminal establishes a local clock reference, internal to the mobile terminal, capable of tracking the first time base. The mobile terminal then operates on a first traffic channel that is unsynchronized to the first control channel and notes the difference in time bases between the control channel and the traffic channel. Either while camped on the control channel or while operating on the traffic channel, the mobile terminal receives TDMA-to-GPS relationship data, which is a measure of the offset between system time for the wireless communications system as expressed on particular control channel ("TDMA time") and the system time for the GPS system ("GPS time"). Thereafter, an accurate estimate of the GPS time is calculated in the mobile terminal based on the local clock reference and the TDMA-to-GPS relationship data. In some aspects, the local clock reference is updated based on the first traffic channel so as to minimize errors arising from timing drift.

Abstract: The invention comprises a drive ring CVT belt. In a CVT transmission, each variable diameter pulley has a drive ring trained around the sheaves. Each drive ring may comprise any high modulus material such as plastic or metal. An endless flexible tensile member or belt is trained between the drive rings. Each drive ring further comprises a sleeve that is trained around an outer surface of each drive ring. Each sleeve slides in a bushing on its respective drive ring. The belt has a tensile load that presses each of the drive rings together on the sleeves. The relative arrangement of the axis of rotation of each drive ring is maintained by the contact between the sleeves and the drive rings. The effective diameter or radius of each pulley is adjusted by movement of each drive ring in each pulley. Movement of the pulley sheaves causes the axis of rotation of each drive ring to move eccentrically with respect to the axis of rotation of the pulley. As the rings move, the belt moves with the drive rings and remains trained over the drive rings, giving a constant bending radius to the belt. The drive rings each may have a surface profile for use with flat belts, synchronous belts, toothed belts, multi-ribbed belts or v type belts.

Abstract: In a technique for setting up calls in IP mobile networks, when an application level in a mobile station sends a setup message to set up a multimedia call, before sending such a message over the radio interface, the mobile station performs the appropriate procedures to setup the appropriate bearers over the radio interface and in the network to satisfy the call requirements specified by the application level in the setup message. The technique applies to both mobile originated calls and mobile terminated calls, the called mobile station performing the transport level procedures after having received a setup message and before sending a confirmation/call acceptance message back to the calling party. Furthermore, the allocation of radio resources for PDP contexts that will be used to carry the media of a multimedia IP called is delayed so that no radio resources are allocated to the PDP contexts activated before the call control signaling is exchanged. The radio resources are allocated only when the call signaling has been completed and the called party has accepted the call and indicated the call characteristics that it can support. An indication is forwarded from the SGSN to the GGSN advising that no packets are to be sent on the PDP context because there are no radio resources for the PDP context.

Abstract: The invention relates to a screw mechanism comprised of a screw shaft (1), a screw nut (2) and rolling bodies. When the screw mechanism is subjected to a high static load, the forces are transmitted from the screw shaft (1) to the screw nut (2) by means of the rolling bodies. As the contact surfaces between the rolling bodies, the screw nut (2) and the screw shaft (1) are very small, only relatively weak forces can be transmitted. In order to adapt the screw mechanism to high static loads, using simple construction measures, the surface of the screw shaft (1) between the grooves (4) of the rolling bodies is provided with locking structures which can be form-fittingly connected with complementary locking structures of locking elements (7, 8) which are moveable essentially transversally to the axis of the screw shaft (1).

Abstract: An orthodontic appliance such as a bracket or buccal tube has a latch for retaining an archwire in an archwire slot. The latch releases the archwire from the archwire slot whenever the archwire exerts a force on the appliance that exceeds a certain minimum value. The minimum value is less than about one-half of the force required in the same direction to debond the appliance from the tooth, and thus reduces the likelihood that the appliance will unintentionally debond from the tooth during the course of orthodontic treatment.

Abstract: A digital time-stamping system for issuing stamps on messages by means of a cryptographic digital signature includes a front end unit (10), a load balancer (50) and one or more public key signature units (60). Incoming messages are rapidly and temporarily time-stamped by means of a MAC generator (30) in the front end unit, and the message is then passed on to the load balancer. The load balancer queues the messages, and passes them on at an appropriate speed to the public key signature units (60), which verifies the MAC and resigns the message with a public key signature. The front end unit (10) and the public key signature units (60) are preferably individual secure modules with the load balancer (50) being outside the security boundaries. The system enables large numbers of incoming messages to be accurately time-stamped in a secure manner.
