Abstract: Disclosed is a method for increasing the availability of a global navigation system comprising several spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11), each of which transmits data to a terminal (20) in order to determine the position of said terminal (20). In a first step, a plurality of spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11) transmits data to the terminal (20). A first subset encompassing at least one first spacecraft and a second subset encompassing second spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11) are then determined from among the plurality of spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11), the second subset of spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11) being determined from the difference between the plurality of spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11) and the first subset of spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11). Furthermore, the integrity risk is determined exclusively from the data transmitted by the second spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11). The first and the second subset of spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11) are determined such that the integrity risk which is determined from the data transmitted by the second spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11) is optimized, particularly minimized, with respect to the integrity risk determined from the data of all (1, 2,..., 11) of the plurality of spacecraft (1, 2,..., 11).

Title: An aid for the prevention of sudden infant death syndrome
Inventor: GABBAI MOSHE
IPC: A47D7/00
Filed: 2007-01-24
Abstract: The present invention provides a safety apparatus as an aid for the prevention of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome: A mattress, fitting the dimensions of a standard-sized crib, is composed of three different layers, allowing a free flow of air through it to the infant lying in any position. The lowest layer has transverse channels allowing cross-wise air movement. The middle and top layers have vertical perforations through them allowing a vertical flow of air. Being composed of 3 layers, differing in density and firmness, the mattress is both firm and pleasant to the touch. Therefore, in addition to its primary function, the mattress provides a method to counter a potential delay in the motor development of the infant, which can result from prolonged lying in the supine position. A mesh sheet is stretched taut over the mattress and fastened securely to the vertical bars of the crib.
