Inventor: SCHALK THOMAS B
IPC: G10L15/06
Filed: 1996-02-28
Abstract: The present invention comprises a method for reducing the database requirements necessary for use in speaker independent recognition systems.

Patent AU-5666098-A (AU)
Title: Power control method of discontinuous transmission
Inventor: HAMALAINEN SEPPO
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 1998-01-21
Abstract: According to the proposed method, the frequency of power control commands transmitted on a power control channel is changed according to the traffic. When the traffic becomes slower in at least one direction due to a DTX state, a slower transfer rate, asymmetric data transfer or for any other reason, the frequency of power control commands is lowered. Both the base station and the personal station may lower the frequency of the commands which they send. An alternative to changing the frequency of power control commands is to change the energy of power control bits. The duration of power control bits must hereby be extended, if a standard bit error ration is desired. If the system is frequency-divided and/or time-divided and uses frequency control command of several bits, the length of the command word may be shortened in addition to or as an alternative to the change in frequency. The power control algorithm may be changed several times during a traffic connection.

Title: Dual processor error detection system
Inventor: CHANDRAN SRIKUMAR R
IPC: G06F11/18
Filed: 1986-05-07
Abstract: The present invention is an input/output controller for providing total data integrity for any single point failure. The I/O controller comprises a processor module having two microprocessors, an associated memory, a direct memory access module (<<DMA>>), and a processor support module (<<PSM>>); a device drive interface; and a channel interface. The two microprocessors are operated in lockstep as a dual modular redundant processor system. The processors provide true and complement, respectively, addresses, data and control strobes. The PSM compares the true and complement data to detect errors (i.e., corresponding data bits not being a true-complement pair) and generates parity protected data (and checks parity) on the data bus. The PSM also generates and checks dual railed control strobes and provides synchronization of all control strobes and interrupt signals to enable the true-complement pair of microprocessors to operate in lock-step. The DMA compares the redundant addresses from the processors to detect errors and to generate parity protected addresses (and check parity) on the address bus. The DMA also generates and checks bus arbitration signals and controls direct memory access. Self-checking checkers are used to check the various dual railed, true-complement pairs of signals to detect, locate and isolate faults. Miscompares between true-complement address, data and control signals and parity errors detected in reading program instructions from memory all are treated as fatal errors, which cause both processors to halt. Other types of errors are treated as nonfatal, which cause processor exceptions during which appropriate programming is executed to locate and isolate such errors.

Title: Network for multi-lateration with circularly polarized antenna
Inventor: BOYD ROBERT W
IPC: G06K17/00
Filed: 1999-09-02
Abstract: A distributed radio geo-location and tracking system has a distributed subsystem architecture that distributes its processing workload over a plurality of information handling and processing subsystems. For maximum detection capability, each of a plurality of tag emission receivers is equipped with a circularly polarized, omnidirectional antenna, to provide hemispherical coverage. The receivers are coupled to a partitioned plurality of detection processors, that are coupled via distributed association processors to multiple location processors. Each detection processor demodulates and time stamps received energy correlated to known spreading codes of the tags, to associate received energy with only one tag. It transmits a message containing this information over a communication framework to an association processor. The computational load is equitably distributed by a flow control mechanism among available association processors, with all receptions of a single tag transmission being directed to the same association processor. An association processor organizes received messages by tag and time-of-arrival (TOA), and transmits association reports over an association communication process of the communication framework to one of plural distributed location processors. A location processor determines the geographical locations of tags using the TOA information in the association reports.

Patent AU-6321090-A (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for improved melt flow during continuous strip casting
Inventor: FOLLSTAEDT DONALD W
IPC: B22D11/06
Filed: 1990-09-25
Abstract: The continuous casting of metal strip (21) using the melt overflow process is improved by controlling the weir conditions in the nozzle (19) to provide a more uniform flow of molten metal (12) across the width of the nozzle (19) and reducing the tendency for freezing of metal along the interface with refractory surfaces. A weir design having a sloped rear wall (28) and tapered sidewalls (29) and critical gap controls beneath the weir (26) has resulted in the drastic reduction in edge tearing and a significant improvement in strip (21) uniformity. The floor (34) of the container vessel (18) is preferably sloped and the gap between the nozzle (19) and the rotating substrate (20) is critically controlled. The resulting flow patterns observed with the improved casting process have reduced thermal gradients in the bath, contained surface slag and eliminated undesirable solidification near the discharge area by increasing the flowrates at those points. <IMAGE>

Title: Esters of castanospermine in the treatment of cerebral malaria
Inventor: BITONTI ALAN J
IPC: A61K31/445
Filed: 1990-10-11
Abstract: Red blood cells which are infected with the parasite P. falciparum cause the cells to become sticky and less deformable. This results in a build-up of cells on the vascular wall and creates occulsions to blood flow which are thought to cause the cerebral, renal and liver complications of P. falciparum infections. Certain esters of castanospermine prevent or reduce the adhesion of falciparum infected blood cells to the vascular endothelial wall and are a useful adjunct in the treatment of malaria.

Title: Voltage control circuitry for charging output capacitor
Inventor: WOLFE JAMES H
IPC: A61N1/378
Filed: 2000-07-26
Abstract: Battery driven voltage control circuitry charges an output capacitor, which periodically supplies a current pulse. The circuitry converts battery voltage VBAT to a charging voltage VUPC based upon programmed parameters and the voltage VCOMPL at the capacitor. The circuitry includes a voltage converter for multiplying VBAT to produce VUPC. VCOMPL is sampled to determine its "droop" at the end of an output current pulse. If the droop is lower than a threshold, then the voltage converter increases the charging voltage. If the droop is above a threshold, then the voltage converter reduces the charging voltage. This feedback maintains the output voltage within an acceptable operating range to produce an efficacious output current pulse for stimulation without causing unproductive energy loss. In order to avoid premature depletion of battery energy, VUPC is compared with VCOMPL to determine the optimum clock rate to be used to convert VBAT to VUPC.
