Patent AU-2668588-A (AU)
Title: Hybrid packet switching
Inventor: WEIK HARTMUT
IPC: H04L12/54
Filed: 1988-12-09
Abstract: In high-speed packet switching, packets of specific connections (CS1, CS2), e.g. speech, moving image, are to be handled with higher priority than packets of other connections (PS1, PS2, PS3), e.g. data, without delay jitter and without losses. 
<??>In a known method, a division is made into a line-switching component (for CS1, CS2) and a packet-switching component (for PS1, PS2, PS3). The line-switching component operates using synchronous time-division multiplexing. In each case, for example, 70 packets, each comprising 40 octets, are combined on each input line to form a frame. Without special measures, this would produce delays in each switching stage of the order of 40 x 70 x 8 bits = 22,400 bits; for each input of a switching stage 22,400 bits of memory space would be required. 
<??>According to the invention, all packets are divided in the exchange into packet parts of equal length and distributed among sub-frames. Switching is carried out on the basis of sub-frames. Delays and memory space requirements are reduced by the frame : sub-frame ratio. 
<??>Fixed positions are preferably allocated to the higher-priority connections (CS1, CS2) in each frame and each sub-frame for the entire duration of the connection. 
<??>Packet parts of the remaining packets are preferably arranged in sequence in remaining free positions and re-combined within each switching stage to form complete packets.

Title: Coin provided with diffraction structures
Inventor: TOMPKIN WAYNE ROBERT
IPC: A44C21/00
Filed: 2001-01-18
Abstract: A coin (1) with a metal surface (2, 3) has macroscopic reliefs (5) which serve for visually specifying the value of the coin and as an authenticity feature. Microscopically fine relief structures (8) with a diffraction effect are formed directly in at least one of the surfaces (2, 3). The relief structures (8) are preferably arranged in a recessed relationship and are covered with a lacquer (9). It is also advantageous if at least a part of the relief structures (8) entails an asymmetrical profile shape and/or the grating vectors in a radial orientation. The release structures (8) may also include a machine-readable coding which is recognized by inexpensive optical reading devices for installation in coin testers.The application of the microscopic relief structure (8) to a hard material surface (2, 3) can be effected by the removal of material by means of exposure of the material surface (2, 3) with a laser beam. In that operation the laser beam passes through a mask for determining the form of the relief structures (8) and then an optical image-forming system for reduction purposes. The exposure procedure can also be implemented in accordance with the dual beam interference method. In a further method the microscopic relief structures (8) are etched into the material surface (2, 3).

Title: Low burst pressure, multiple domed, scored rupture disc
Inventor: HINRICHS JAMES O
IPC: F16T1/12
Filed: 1995-06-13
Abstract: A multiple-domed, scored rupture disc (28) having a non-apertured disc body (62) provided with separate, side-by-side, semi-circular concavo-convex bulges (76) and an arcuate line of weakness (68) circumscribing the bulges is provided with a diametrical ridge (74) extending across and serving as a divider between the bulged areas of the disc body. The distance between the outer margin of the ridge and a plane through the annular planar section of the disc body is from about 0.3% to about 3% of the diameter of the bulged area to increase the rigidity of the divider ridge. The greater rigidity of the divider ridge decreases the burst pressure of the disc.

Title: System and method for continuous estimation and display of cardiac ejection fraction and end diastolic volume
Inventor: ROTELIUK LUCHY D
IPC: A61B5/028
Filed: 1999-06-07
Abstract: The cardiac ejection fraction EF is estimated based on the parameters of a model of an indicator (such as thermal) dilution through the heart. A channel model is defined by an upstream indicator injector, such as a heater, positioned preferably in the right atrium/ventricle and a downstream indicator concentration sensor, such as a thermistor. The preferred model is a lagged normal transfer function, which has as one of its output parameters the indicator decay constant  tau  of the blood channel. The heart rate HR is also measured. The ejection fraction EF is then calculated continuously as EF=1-exp(-60/( tau *HR)). The cardiac output CO is also estimated in the model, preferably based on an estimate of the zero-frequency gain of the lagged normal transfer function. End diastolic volume EDV is then also calculated continuously as a function of CO, HR and EF. In applications where the step response of the indicator concentration sensor is slow relative to the indicator decay, the transfer function Hs of the sensor is determined ahead of time. Parameters characterizing Hs are then stored in a memory device and the measured transfer function data is scaled by Hs prior to modelling to provide the most accurate EF estimate.

A tracking signal for controlling the tracking alignment of the rotary playback head (1A,1B) is generated in response to the level comparison, and is adjusted in level response to the level of the tracking control signal.

Title: Asymmetric data transmission for use in a multi-modulation environment
Inventor: HAMITI SHKUMBIN
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 2000-05-02
Abstract: A data transmission method and system for circuit switched and other services that can be employed in TDMA-based systems, and that supports the use of one or several types of modulation (e.g., 8-PSK modulation), in addition to a "normal" modulation (e.g., GMSK modulation) on a radio interface. An additional modulation/channel coding (e.g., one based on 8-PSK) may be used in the downlink transmission, while the normal modulation/channel coding (e.g., one based on GMSK) may be used in the uplink transmissions, under a variety of different conditions. A first condition arises where the radio conditions allow the use of the additional modulation in both directions, but the mobile station transmitter does not support it. A second condition arises where the radio conditions allow the use of the additional modulation in both directions, and the mobile station supports it, but the user requests a downlink-biased or uplink-biased data transmission service. A third condition arises where the mobile station supports the use of the additional modulation in both directions, but the uplink (or downlink) radio conditions do not permit the use of the additional modulation (e.g., because of link budget limitations.) Also, a lower data rate may be desired on the uplink in order to reduce the power consumption of the mobile station, and/or in the downlink direction to avoid unnecessary interference. This is especially true in the case that one direction or the other has less data to transmit, and the high speed data transmission mode is not required (even if supported).
