Abstract: Disclosed a method of controlling a handover using both a soft handover and a
hard handover in an uplink synchronous transmission scheme to synchronize reception
timing between mobile stations in an area of a base station. In the present invention, a
uplink synchronous timing controlled based on a base station can be adjusted to a uplink
syncluonous timing of the other base station after re-setting a radio link with the
information of uplink synchronous transmission. Accordingly, the performance or the
receptible capacity and the cell coverage area can be increased by serving the hard
handover with the uplink synchronous transmission scheme.

Title: A method of calibrating exit thermocouples in a nuclear reactor
Inventor: BOYD WILLIAM A
IPC: G21C17/022
Filed: 2001-10-04
Abstract: The exit thermocouples (31) of a pressurized water reactor (PWR) are calibrated
by recording the thermocouple temperature measurements periodically during power
ascension of the reactor together with a predicted power at the corresponding locations
at the same time determined by a three-dimensional analytical nodal model (47) of the
core (9) at the same core average power. The temperature measurements are converted
to local core power values which are then divided into the corresponding predicted
powers for the corresponding locations to arrive at mixing factors which are fitted to a
selected function of core power. These mixing factors are recorded and subsequently
applied to local power values calculated from measured exit thermocouple temperatures
to adjust the three-dimensional nodal model power. Periodically, the mixing factors are
adjusted by using flux map data (57) to update the three-dimensional analytical nodal
model power to generate a reference power distribution, calculating updated mixing
factors using the current thermocouple temperature measurement taken at the same time
and therefore the same average core power, and the reference power distribution, and
then shifting the mixing factor functions of core power accordingly to pass through the
updated mixing factors.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé permettant de seconder la photocoagulation de cellules, de tissus ou de portions de tissus particuliers par la détection de la microcavitation dans la matière exposée au rayonnement (12) électromagnétique. L'information obtenue par la détection des événement de microcavitation peut servir à moduler l'intensité du rayonnement (12) afin d'empêcher une transmission d'énergie thermique élevée et l'apparition de dégâts dans les cellules, tissus ou portions de tissus qui ne sont pas exposés directement mais risquent d'être endommagés par la chaleur lors d'une telle transmission d'énergie. La détection de la microcavitation constitue également un précieux critère thérapeutique. Ces procédés peuvent être appliqués à la chirurgie de l'oeil étant donné que les cellules cibles d'un grand nombre de procédés de photocoagulation thérapeutique, les cellules de l'épithélium pigmentaire rétinien, sont adjacentes aux cellules photoréceptrices. Ces procédés contribuent à prévenir la formation de taches aveugles associées à la chirurgie au laser de l'oeil. D'autres domaines de la chirurgie au laser peuvent également être facilement adaptés aux procédés décrits.
