Title: Impulse pay per view programming distribution control system
IPC: H04N7/16
Filed: 1989-09-28
Abstract: A distribution control system for controlling the distribution of scrambled 
impulse pay per view (IPPV) programming from a plurality of different IPPV 
programmers to a plurality of descramblers (20, 21). The system includes a plurality 
of business data processing systems( 10, 11) a plurality of channel control systems 
(14, 15) respectively related to a plurality of the given IPPV programmers, and an 
IPPV management system (17.). The business data processing systems (10, 11) 
process view history data (24, 25) identifying descrambled IPPV programs and credit 
data for individual descramblers and cost data( 33, 34) for IPPV programs provided 
by given IPPV programmers and provide credit data and IPPV authorization data (39, 
40 )pertaining to individual descramblers (20, 21). Each of the channel control 
systems (14, 15 )provides descrambler messages (33, 34) containing identification, 
cost and IPPV status data for individual IPPV programs. The IPPV data 
management system (17) processes the credit data and IPPV authorization data (39, 
40) provided by the business data processing systems (10, 11) to provide 
descrambler messages 42 unique to each descrambler(20, 21) containing credit data 
and IPPV authorization data pertaining to the individual descrambler. The IPPV 
management system (17 )also sorts the IPPV program identification and cost data 
(33, 34) provided by the channel control systems (14, 15) in accordance with which 
business data processing systems (10, 11 )process data for those IPPV programs 
provided by the respective given IPPV programmers, and sorts view history data 
(24, 25) provided by the descramblers (20, 21) in accordance with which business 
data processing systems (10, 11) process data for the respective descramblers (20, 
21) for the IPPV programmers that provide the IPPV programs identified in the view 
history data provided by the respective descramblers; and forwards the sorted IPPV 
program identification and cost data and the sorted view history data(36, 37)to the 
respective business data processing systems (10, 11).

Title: Industrial burner using recuperative air preheating, especially for heating the chambers of industrial furnaces
IPC: F23D14/66
Filed: 1992-08-06
Abstract: A burner suitable for heating a furnace chamber of an industrial furnace which is equipped with a recuperative preheater for combustion air has a combustion chamber at one end and a feed-through cap at the other end which is accessible outside of a furnace in which the burner is installed. The tubular recuperative preheater is of the coaxial countercurrent flow configuration extending between the combustion chamber and an annular outflow collector cap. A coaxial fuel pipe is centered in the burner extending to the combustion chamber. Overheating of the burner cap is prevented by means of a spacer sleeve of small heat conductivity interposed between the preheater and the burner cap. This permits the valves to be seated in the burner cap without risk of thermal damage. For protection of personnel against contact with hot surfaces, a perforated metal shield is provided between the burner cap and the outflow cap of the recuperator, essentially covering all the portions of the burner outside a furnace wall.

Patent EP-0622909-A3 (EP)
Inventor: DENT PAUL W
IPC: H04B1/7107
Filed: 1994-04-28
Abstract: An implementation of coherent diversity combining in a RAKE
receiver that uses energy in signal echoes by integrating
information from main-path and bit-period-delayed signal
propagation paths to remove echo distortion, or time dispersion,
is described. If delayed by one chip in a CDMA system,
such echoes appear as uncorrelated interference. The RAKE
receiver correlates a despreading code with the current (main-path)
signal samples and with the signal samples delayed by 1,
2, 4, ... bit periods, and combines the correlation results to
determine the information content of the signal. After
appropriate conditioning, the received signal is digitized
and the signal samples are stored. Groups of samples are Fast
Walsh Transformed, and the real and imaginary transforms are
scaled according to a table of coefficients; the scaled
results are stored. Weighted, scaled transforms of groups
shifted by 1, 2, 4, ... samples are accumulated, and the index
of the largest-magnitude accumulation is used to select real
and imaginary transform values. The selected values are
transferred to a RAKE coefficient computer and quantizer that
determines from the sequence of values presented the mean
value and trend of the real and imaginary components. A
Kalman filter may use these values to estimate the values that
will occur during the next group analysis period.
