Patent EP-1078891-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TAKEI YUSUKE
IPC: C03B5/167
Filed: 1998-10-06
Abstract: A vacuum degassing apparatus for molten glass
according to the present invention comprises a vacuum
housing where a vacuum is created; a vacuum degassing
vessel housed in the vacuum housing to degas the molten
glass; an introduction device communicated to the vacuum
degassing vessel so as to introduce untreated molten
glass into the vacuum degassing vessel, or preferably an
uprising pipe; and a discharge device to discharge
treated molten glass from the vacuum degassing vessel,
or preferably a downfalling pipe. In the apparatus, at
least a portion of at least one of the vacuum degassing
vessel, the uprising pipe and the downfalling pipe that
directly contact with the molten glass is constituted by
refractory material having a porosity of not greater
than 5%. The apparatus can increase quantity of flow of
the molten glass and consequently a degassing throughput
of the molten glass in comparison with prior art, having
the same size and the same pressure loss. The apparatus
can further increase the quantity of flow and the
degassing throughput without making the size of the
apparatus excessively larger.

Abstract: An improved test method for an EGR system (22, 24) reliably detects
debilitating EGR system restrictions without significantly degrading
combustion stability and exhaust emissions. The EGR valve test opening for
diagnostic purposes is initialized at a relatively low value, which is
progressively increased if the resulting change in intake manifold pressure fails
to exceed a threshold based on the minimum expected change in intake
manifold pressure for an EGR system that is regarded as functioning within
acceptable limits (110, 120, 130, 170). As soon as the measured pressure
change exceeds the threshold, the EGR system is deemed to pass the restriction
test, and the test method is terminated (130, 140, 180). If the EGR valve
opening reaches a maximum value without the measured pressure exceeding the
threshold, the EGR system is deemed to fail the restriction test, and a fault
indication is generated (130, 150, 160). Consequently, the test opening of the
EGR valve (22) is adaptively determined based on the measured intake
manifold pressure change, and is never larger than required to reliably detect a
debilitating EGR restriction. This allows reliable detection of a borderline
failing EGR system, while preventing degradation of combustion stability and
emissions in a substantially unrestricted EGR system.

Abstract: A method (50) of operating a communications receiver (20).
The method receives a communications signal (10) which is
transmitted via a channel, where the communications signal
comprises received known pilot data (D P ) and received information
data (D I ), the known pilot data and information data being
sequentially transmitted. The method then estimates a first
channel impulse response (52) for the channel, wherein the first
channel impulse response is in response to the received pilot
data. Next, the method determines (54) a group of estimated
information data in response to the first channel impulse
response. Next, the method estimates a second channel impulse
response (56) for the channel in response to the estimated
information data. Thereafter, the method forms (56) a combined
channel impulse response for the channel. The combined channel
impulse response is in response to the estimated information data
and the known pilot. The combined channel impulse response is in
response to a combination of a first weight applied to the first
channel impulse response and a second weight applied to the second
channel impulse response, wherein the first weight differs from
the second weight.

Abstract: A waste fluid discharge column for use in a vacuum drainage system. The discharge
column (112a,112b,112c) comprises a vertical pipe (138a,138b,138c) maintained under
negative pressure to create a liquid column inside the vertical pipe. A chamber
(150a,1550b,150c) is attached to an upper end of the pipe and defines a vacuum port
(134a,134b,134c) and a fluid inlet port (154a,154b,154c). The chamber allows for
better separation of waste fluid and air, and provides a vacuum buffer for the drainage
system. The present invention further comprises a vacuum drainage system capable
of separately handling multiple waste fluid flows. Two or more waste fluid discharge
columns (112a,112b,112c) may be connected to a single vacuum source (130).
Because the different types of waste fluid are handled separately, treatment and other
auxiliary apparatus needed for certain types of waste fluid may be sized properly since
the vacuum drainage system may direct only the waste fluid requiring treatment to the
auxiliary apparatus.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of transmitting data
using adaptive coding scheme, which changes channel coding rate of
transport blocks (TBs) adaptively in accordance with channel
transmission conditions, at physical layer of asynchronous mobile
communication system such as W-CDMA or IMT-2000 in order to achieve
effective data transmission, and relates to a base station using the
method. This method is to apply to a physical layer of an asynchronous
mobile communication system where a SRNC consisting of a media access
control (MAC) layer and radio link control (RLC) for transmitting
channel data and a base station, connected to the SRNC with a wired
interface, consisting of the physical layer being in charge of actual
data transmission are included. According to this method, a new
management module is added over the most upper layer of the physical
layer to collect all acknowledgement information for each channel
from an opposite physical layer, to determine a puncturing rate
suitable to current channel conditions and to report the
acknowledgement information to the MAC layer of the SRNC which
decides whether to deliver down new TBs to the physical layer based
on the received acknowledgement information.
