Abstract: An out-of-synchronization condition for a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) is defined for a situation in which it may be difficult to distinguish an out-of-synchronization condition in a downlink dedicated channel from interference on that channel. A request is sent on an uplink from a user equipment (UE) to a base station transceiver (BST) for increased power on a downlink channel experiencing a possible frames out-of-synchronization condition, which may instead be a possible interference condition, so as to attempt to eliminate the possible interference. After a first selected period of time without eliminating the possible interference problem, the uplink is terminated unless a broadcast downlink channel is determined to be experiencing interference below a selected level, in which case the UE is allowed to continue to send the request for increased power. Only after a second selected period of time without eliminating the possible interference problem is the uplink terminated.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus are used to place virtual objects in video programs. Programs are selected and virtual object locations are defined in the selected programs. The available virtual objects available are categorized and the categories are correlated to subscriber information. When a frame of a program includes a virtual object location, a default or an alternate virtual object is displayed. The virtual object location may change over space or time. The virtual object may be interactive, and may be used to link a subscriber to a remote location, such as an Internet web site. An operations center or a cable headend may generate a group assignment plan that assigns the subscribers' terminals to groups, based on factors such as area of dominant influence and household income. A placement plan may instruct the television terminals to display the desired virtual object. The television terminals may record which virtual objects were displayed, and may report this information to the cable headends and the operations center. The reported information is used to generate billing for commercial advertisers, and to analyze viewer watching habits. The invention uses upstream data reception hardware, databases and processing hardware and software, and corresponding features in the televisions to accomplish these functions.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un protocole de communications destiné à des détecteurs de conditions dangereuses interconnectés, tels que des détecteurs de fumée et de monoxyde de carbone utilisés dans des habitations et dans d'autres structures. Ce protocole de communication fournit un signalement conventionnel pour indiquer la présence de fumée nécessitant de générer un schéma temporel de présence de fumée par tous les détecteurs interconnectés. Ce protocole définit aussi une méthode de signalement par laquelle les détecteurs de fumée conventionnels sont incapables de fournir des schémas temporels de présence de fumée autres que ceux qui sont requis car un état d'alarme signalant la présence de fumée ne sera pas envoyé dans un mode alarme de fonctionnement à réception d'un signal différent du signal d'alarme de présence de fumée conventionnel. Ce protocole de communication définit un signal d'impulsion pour indiquer un état d'alarme d'absence de fumée d'une durée qui ne déclenchera pas les alarmes de présence de fumée conventionnels. Afin de permettre la transmission de multiples notifications d'alarme de conditions dangereuses ainsi que la transmission de signaux de commande de détecteur de condition dangereuse additionnels, ce protocole de communication utilise un signal multibit transmis via le câble E/S du signal unique conventionnel du câblage d'interconnexion existant actuellement. Par l'utilisation d'un signal d'alarme 8 bits, de multiples conditions dangereuses peuvent être signalées de même que des modes de fonctionnement tels que les modes test, silencieux, de mise à zéro, de batterie déchargée etc.. Cette invention concerne aussi des détecteurs de présence de fumée, de monoxyde de carbone et de combinaison de conditions dangereuses qui utilisent le protocole de communication de cette invention.

Abstract: A method of compensating for seismic receiver motion in a marine seismic survey wherein at least one receiver is towed behind a moving seismic vessel comprises producing an acoustic energy wave at a seismic source, and recording the reflection arrival time t2 of the acoustic energy wave at the one receiver. The offset x between the source and the one receiver is determined. The normal moveout velocity V for the acoustic energy, and the velocity VB of the seismic vessel are also estimated. A corrected reflection arrival time t1 , of the acoustic energy wave is then determined by applying a time correction to the recorded reflection arrival time t2. The time correction is a function of the offset x, the normal moveout velocity V, and the velocity VB of the seismic vessel. The method is applicable to a plurality of receivers, whether the receivers are arranged in a single sensor acquisition system or hardwired to form receiver groups.
