Abstract: A time slot boundary of an unknown cell in a telecommunications system is identified by correlating a received signal with a known code over a range of delay values for each of one or more time slots, wherein the known code is used by all cells in the telecommunications system. Only for each of the delay values that are not associated with a known cell, correlation values obtained at each of the one or more time slots are accumulated. The time slot boundary is identified by determining which of the delay values is associated with a highest accumulated correlation value. One or more stored monitored delay sets may be used to determine which delay values are not associated with a known cell. The one or more stored monitored delay sets may be filtered using delay information obtained over a period of time.

Abstract: A hardware random number generator (RNG) has a source of entropy for providing a bit stream (DIS) comprising successive bits of a first state and a second state. The RNG includes a first digital corrector circuit configured to provide from two successive bits in the bit stream an output bit of an output bit stream according to a first scheme to ensure that bits in the output bit stream are independent from one another. A serially connected second digital corrector circuit ensures that the bits in the output bit stream are also unbiased, so that the output bit stream is truly random. A Gaussian generator connected to an output of either the first corrector or the second corrector generates from the output bit stream words having standard Gaussian deviates.

Abstract: Various security mechanisms may be used independently, or in combination with one another, to authenticate the identity of a node during the Mobile IP registration process. First, an Access Point receiving a packet from a node verifies that the source MAC address identified in the packet is in the Access Point's client association table. In addition, as a second mechanism, the Access Point ensures that a one-to-one mapping exists for the source MAC address and source IP address identified in the packet in a mapping table maintained by the Access Point. As a third mechanism, a binding is not modified in the mobility binding table maintained by the Home Agent unless there is a one-to-one mapping in the mobility binding table between the source MAC address and the source IP address. Similarly, the Foreign Agent may also maintain a mapping between the source IP address and the source MAC address in its visitor table to ensure a one-to-one mapping between a source IP address and the associated MAC address.

Granted: 2007-04-11
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for measuring the heat of a chemical or biological process between at least two samples being in partial equilibrium. By allowing the samples to first establish a partial equilibrium, the background noise coming from chemical non-equilibrium between components, e.g. buffers, of the samples can be minimised and hence, the signal to noise ratio of the signal that is measured may be improved. Partial equilibrium is established with the aid of a selective (e.g. semipermeable) wall between the samples. The selective wall lets the buffers pass, but not the reagents. The chemical reaction between the reagents is initiated by applying a stimulus (eg. piercing) the selective wall.
