Title: Method for using three gps frequencies to resolve carrier-phase integer ambiguities
Inventor: HATCH RONALD R
IPC: G01S19/04
Filed: 2004-10-07
Abstract: A method for generating an ambiguity-resolved, refraction-corrected, and noise-minimized carrier-phase measurement. The method includes forming a first composite measurement using GPS carrier-phase measurements on the L1, L2 and L5 frequencies. To reduce the noise in the first composite measurement, the method further includes forming a second composite measurement using GPS carrier-phase measurements on at least two of the three GPS carrier frequencies. The second composite measurement is formed to have a small multi-path noise therein so that it can be used to smooth the first composite measurement so that the multipath noise is minimized.

Title: Method and apparatus for translating data packets from one network protocol to another
Inventor: FAUCHER MARC RAYMOND
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2004-10-04
Abstract: A method for translating data packets from one network protocol to another is disclosed. A set of translation templates is constructed. The translation templates are then loaded into a translation template cache. In response to a data packet from a first network arriving at a translation router, an appropriate translation template is selected from the set of translation templates within the translation template cache according to the translation context of the data packet. Next, a new header for transmission into a second network is constructed by reading header fields of the data packet from the first network along with the appropriate translation template in the translation template cache. The data payload of the data packet from the first network is subsequently removed from the header of the data packet and then appended to the constructed header of the second network. Finally, the newly constructed data packet is transmitted to the second network.

Abstract: An optimum auction method using a network is disclosed. Especially, being different from a typical auction method for simply evaluating a personally proposed bid price, the optimum auction method evaluates various evaluation particulars for the auction and evaluation methods in overall, thereby selecting an optimum bidder who is close to an intention or taste of an auction initiator or able to maximize a profit even though the selected optimum bidder does not propose the highest or the lowest bid price. Accordingly, it is also possible to broaden a range of participation and improve efficiency on the auction. Also, there are various types of the optimum auction method including a reverse auction, a lease auction and a reverse lease auction which can proceed with various trading methods by maximizing the profit of the auction initiator.

Title: Melt redistribution element for an injection molding apparatus
Inventor: GOSLINSKI RHONDA
IPC: B29C45/18
Filed: 2006-10-03
Abstract: An injection molding apparatus having a manifold and several manifold melt channels communicating with several hot runner nozzles includes a melt redistribution element. The melt redistribution element is placed at specific locations along the melt channels to balance the uneven shear stress profile accumulated during the flow of a melt along the manifold channels. The melt redistribution element has an unobstructed central melt bore having at its inlet a narrowing tapered channel portion. The melt redistribution element also includes a helical melt pathway portion that surrounds the central melt bore. The incoming melt is first subjected to a pressure increase by the tapered portion that causes the melt to flow at a higher velocity through the central melt bore. The outer portion of the melt is forced to flow along the helical path and thus it changes direction multiple times and partially mixes with the melt flowing through the central melt bore. Accordingly, at the outlet of the melt redistribution element the shear stress profile is more evenly distributed than at the inlet of the redistribution element.

Title: System and method for compressing and reconstructing audio files
Inventor: SHELWIEN EUGENE
IPC: G10L19/06
Filed: 2006-11-17
Abstract: A system and method for the improved compression of audio signals and the restoration and enhancement of audio recordings missing high frequency content. In the preferred embodiment the different context models are applied to increase the compression ratio of spectral information, quantization coefficients and other information. Context models and arithmetic compression are used for final compression. The time-frequency amplitude envelope and degree of tonality parameters are extracted from the low frequency component. An estimate of the high frequency component is performed by applying a multiband distortion effect, waveshaping, to the low frequency content. Control of tonality is achieved by varying the number of bands within rhe multiband framework. A filterbank is used that roughly shapes the reconstructed high frequency component according to an estimation of the most probable shape.
