Patent CA-2330709-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VANDERVEEN MICHAELA C
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2001-01-10
Abstract: At least portions of the map of the base stations, i.e., which base stations are neighbors, is discovered and updated using a wireless terminal controlled handoff process. The portion of the map that is discovered by a particular base station is typically its neighbors to which it can possibly hand off a call it is serving. It takes at least one handoff with each such base station neighbor for the particular base station to discover its entire local map, i.e., all the base stations to which the particular base station can perform handoffs. The wireless terminal handoff process is used to supply a base station with information about other base stations with whom the base station can cooperate to perform handoffs. The handoff process may subsequently be performed more expeditiously between the particular base station and such other base stations using the obtained information. As part of the handoff process, the wireless terminal tells the new base station to which it is handing off the call the identity of the previous base station from which control is being handed off. The wireless terminal then completes handoff and begins to be served by the new base station. If the new base station does not have a valid record for the previous base station, it forms a trust relationship with the previous base station and creates a record for it, thus identifying it as a neighbor to which it can perform expedited handoff in response to the control of a wireless terminal.

The permanent magnet is shiftable in the chassis along an inclined plane in order to adjust the clearance between permanent magnet and the current conductors.      According to the invention, the permanent magnet can be shifted along a ferromagnetic holding plate oriented at an angle relative to the roadway plans. The plate is received in a retaining means formed in one piece with the chassis. The underside of the retaining means contains two guide rails, along which the permanent magnet can be shifted.

IPC: H04M3/523
Filed: 2001-01-29
Abstract: A multi-site call processing system includes multiple distributed call center sites, and utilizes a load balancing process to distribute calls among the sites for handling by agents. The system generates a multi-site performance score characterizing the performance of the load balancing process. Adjustments may be made in the load balancing process, such as selection of one type of load balancing over another for use at a particular time, based at least in part on the multi-site performance score. The multi-site performance score may be determined using single-site performance measures such as Average Speed of Answer (ASA) and agent occupancy generated across multiple time intervals. The multi-site performance score as generated for a given interval may be, e.g., a ratio of the maximum and minimum values of a single-site performance measure for that interval. As another example, the multi-site performance score may be in the form of a standard deviation of a set of normalized scores generated for the multiple sites across the specified time intervals. Filtering operations may be applied to the data for one or more selected intervals in order to further improve the ability of the performance measure to distinguish relevant variations in the load balancing process.

Abstract: This idea/invention is a sticker with a sticky back to cover the outer part of a cigarette package. It will consist of a sticker of paper type material with a sticky backing attached to a peel away non-stick piece of stiff wax paper type material. The peel away backing will be scored along the full length for easy removal and attachment to the cigarette package. The sticker and peel away backing will be rectangular to cover standard sized packages of 20 and 25 cigarettes, king size cuts and regular size cuts of both quantities. This gives people the option to "normalize" their cigarette packages by covering up the disturbing images that cigarette manufacturers have to print on their packages as ordered by the Federal Government. These stickers will have pictures, prints, advertising, art, designs and copyrights and cover at least 25%, up to 50% of the cigarette package.

Patent CA-2336316-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SAKUTH MICHAEL
IPC: B01J37/10
Filed: 1999-06-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne un support de catalyseur désaluminé, un procédé pour produire ledit support de catalyseur avec une teneur réduite en aluminium à base de phyllosilicates courants, tels que la montmorillonite, ainsi qu'un procédé d'hydratation d'oléfines C2 ou C3, où l'on utilise le support de catalyseur à teneur réduite en aluminium. Pour la réaction d'hydratation à catalyse acide, le support est imprégné d'acide phosphorique. L'amélioration qui caractérise l'invention comparativement au procédé d'hydratation classique consiste dans le fait qu'il ne peut plus se produire de lixiviation d'aluminium du support en présence d'acide phosphorique. Les phénomènes de blocage par phosphate d'aluminium intervenant dans les appareils intercalés après la réaction ne sont plus à craindre.

Title: Foam process implementation using fuzzy controllers
Inventor: MURTONEN MARKO
IPC: D21F11/00
Filed: 1999-06-30
Abstract: Non-woven webs are produced from cellulose, synthetic, or glass fibers utilizing a foam-laid process by employing fuzzy controllers. By using a fuz zy controller, it is possible to precisely control the foam-laid process to all ow production of non-woven webs of a variety of different types of fibers, whic h webs have high uniformity, and high predictability, by allowing the foam to be handled in such a way that it always remains stable and substantially unifor m. By using fuzzy controllers one may control at least the wire pit level, the mixer/pulp level, the manifold pressure for the former, the foam density, th e efflux ratio (the velocity of the foam divided by the velocity of the wire),  surfactant feed, total basis weight of the web produced, and particularly wh en glass webs are being made, the binder tank level. Particular input parameter s are used for each of the fuzzy controllers. For example, the fuzzy controlle r for automatically controlling the level in the mixer/pulp tank has as its input parameters at least some (two through all) of the density and flow rat e of foam being recirculated to the tank from the wire pit, the pH of the foam  in the tank, the level of the foam in the wire pit, and the fiber added to t he tank. A neural net control may be utilized for effecting quality controlof substantially the entire method or system for making a non-woven web, and laboratory testing information is fed to the neural net control to facilitat e its functionality.

Title: A system and method for sending and receiving data signals over a clock signal line
Inventor: HWANG SEUNG HO
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 1999-09-10
Abstract: The system preferably includes a unique transmitter that sends both clock an d data signals over the same transmission line. The receiver uses the same transmission line to send data signals back to the transmitter. The transmitter comprises a clock generator, a decoder and a line interface. The  clock generator produces a clock signal that includes a variable position falling edge. The falling edge position is decoded by the receiver to extrac t data from the clock signal. The receiver comprises a clock re-generator, a data decoder and a return channel encoder. The clock re-generator monitors t he transmission line, receives signals, filters them and generates a clock sign al at the receiver from the signal on the transmission line. The return channel  encoder generates signals and asserts them on the transmission line. The signal is asserted or superimposed over the clock and data signal provided b y the transmitter.
