Title: Procede et dispositif de detection de messages presentant une caracteristique de signalisation inconnue
Inventor: CHI RICHARD
IPC: H04L25/02
Filed: 2002-01-17
Abstract: L'invention concerne des techniques destinées à détecter des séquences reçues lorsque certaines caractéristiques de signalisation (vitesses, formats de transport, etc.) ne sont pas connues a priori au niveau du récepteur. Dans un procédé, une séquence destinée à un message transmis est reçue, une valeur métrique étant calculée pour chaque message d'un ensemble de messages hypothétisés correspondant à une pluralité d'hypothèses se rapportant à la caractéristique de signalisation inconnue du message transmis. La valeur métrique est calculée sur base d'une métrique MAP dérivée de façon à maximiser approximativement une probabilité a posteriori annexée entre la séquence reçue et les messages hypothétisés. Le message hypothétisé possédant la meilleure valeur métrique est sélectionné comme message transmis. La forme spécifique de la métrique MAP dépend du programme de signalisation particulier utilisé pour mapper le message avec sa séquence correspondante, et peut être utilisée pour une détection de format de transport aveugle (BTFD) dans un système AMCR large bande et pour une détection de vitesse aveugle dans un système IS-95 AMCR.

IPC: A61K9/107

Abstract: The invention is directed to isomeric mixtures of cyclosporine analogues that are structurally similar to cyclosporine A. The mixtures possess enhanced efficacy and reduced toxicity over the individual isomers and over naturally occurring and other presently known cyclosporines and cyclosporine derivatives. Embodiments of the present invention are directed toward cis and trans-isomers of cyclosporin A analogs referred to as ISA Tx 247, and derivatives thereof. Mixtures of ISA Tx 247 isomers exhibit a combination of enhanced potency and reduced toxicity over the naturally occurring and presently known cyclosporins. ISA Tx 247 isomers and alkylated, arylated, and deuterated derivatives are synthesized by stereoselective pathways where the particular conditions of a reaction determine the degree of stereoselectivity. Stereoselective pathways may utilize a Wittig reaction, or an organometallic reagent comprising inorganic elements such as boron, silicon, titanium, and lithium. The ratio of isomers in a mixture may range from about 10 to 90 percent by weight of the (E)-isomer to about 90 to 10 percent by weight of the (Z)-isomer, based on the total weight of the mixture.

Abstract: When an RRC procedure is combined with an SRNS Relocation
procedure, a PDCP synchronization procedure is performed
only if a next expected UL/DL Receive PDCP sequence
number invalidity event is detected during the SRNS
Relocation procedure. If no such invalidity event is
detected, then no PDCP sequence number synchronization
procedure is performed. If the RRC procedure is not
executed in combination with the SRNS Relocation
procedure, then the PDCP sequence number synchronization
procedure is performed only if: (1) The RRC procedure
causes the RLC entity that is used by the PDCP entity to
be re-established; or, (2) The RRC procedure causes the
header compression protocol used by the PDCP entity to be
changed.

Abstract: The neck (46) of a typical PAR lamp assembly (10) tends to focus the light issued in the neck (46) or heel
of the lamp back onto the lamp seals. The focused lost light then tends to overheat the seal
and shorten lamp life. A practical solution is to intercept this lost light with a light
absorbing layer (48). The light is then converted to heat in the layer (48). The heat is then re-radiated
in an unfocused fashion with only a small portion of it redirected to the seal area (34).
The interception layer may be formed as a black top coating on the neck interior (32) or the
neck exterior (48) if the reflector (44) is otherwise light transmissive. Alternatively, the neck (38) may
be formed from a translucent or opaque material that then converts the light into heat in the
body of the reflector wall. The neck (38) is then specifically not metallized so as to reflect light
from the internal neck surface back to the lamp seal.
