Abstract: A method and communication system for assigning the plurality of fingers to demodulation paths in a path list which insures that at least one finger will be assigned to a demodulation path supporting a supplemental channel, if one exists. The method involves determining whether any of the fingers is demodulating a supplemental channel (112). When no fingers are demodulating supplemental channels, the it is determined whether the sector containing the path under consideration supports supplemental channels (114). If the sector containing the path under consideration supports supplemental channels, then the method determines the strength of the signal path relative to the weakest finger (116). If the path is a certain amount greater in strength then the weakest finger, then the method involves reassigning that finger to the path with the supplemental channel (108) and if the path with the supplemental channel is a certain amount of strength weaker than the weakest finger plus a certain value, then the method involves determining whether the weakest finger is the only one supporting the supplemental channel (118). If the weakest finger is the only one supporting supplemental channels, and the sector supports supplemental channels (120), then that finger is assigned to the demodulation path with the supplemental channel (108), thus insuring that the information on a supplemental channel is always demodulated by a finger during a soft-handoff in a high data rate call if one or more fingers are already demodulating supplemental channels, then the finger assignment algorithm will proceed in the conventional way.

Abstract: A magnetic recording disk has a magnetic recording layer formed on a special multilayered "host" layer. The host layer is a "synthetic antiferromagnetically", i.e., at least two ferromagnetic films that are exchange-coupled antiferromagnetically (AF) to one another across a nonferromagnetic spacer film so that their magnetic moments are oriented antiparallel. The magnetic recording layer has a different composition from the top ferromagnetic film in the host layer and is ferromagnetically coupled to the top ferromagnetic film of the host layer. The magnetic volume V of the composite structure (magnetic recording layer and host layer) that determines the thermal stability will be approximately the sum of the volumes of the grains in the magnetic recording layer and the AF-coupled ferromagnetic films of the host layer. However, the magnetic moment of the composite structure is primarily just the moment from the magnetic recording layer because the host layer is designed to have essentially no net magnetic moment.

Abstract: A combined baffle and reinforcing assembly is provided for use within the cavity of a structural member to dampen acoustic transmissions through the cavity and provide reinforcement in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the structural member. The assembly includes a synthetic carrier which includes an interior area, marginal rim, and an attachment member preferably in the form of a clip for insertion to the corresponding hole in the wall of the structural member, and a circumscribing and continuous band of reinforcing material extending around the periphery of the carrier. The assembly may be economically manufactured by co-injection molding or insert molding of the thermally expansible material around the carrier. The marginal rim of the carrier may include base wall and a support flange for receiving the thermally expansible material thereon. After activation of the expansible material, it expands outwardly and bonds the carrier to the surrounding wall of the structural member, leaving an interior area of the carrier uncovered by the foamed expanded material.
