Abstract: A power control method for reverse links used in soft handoff mode between a
mobile and base stations of a CDMA wireless communication network. Each of the base
stations computes a setpoint based on the quality of received frames. The lowest setpoint
value is then used as a threshold for inner loop operation causing at least one of the
reverse links to convey information in compliance with a target FER set by the network.

Abstract: In a content live distribution, to notify people who are wanted to see the
content that the contents live distribution will be performed, without the need for the
content provider to carry out any troublesome operations. In a content supply system 100,
a provider uses a streaming server 102 to perform live distribution and makes a reservation
for the use of a time zone, etc. to a server reservation control centre 101 with a user PC
106. In the case where the user PC 106 sends desired reservation information including
e-mail addresses of people who are wanted to see the content, to the server reservation
control centre 101 over the Internet 103, when the reservation is permitted, the server
reservation control centre 101 sends an e-mail notifying that a content distribution will be
performed to each e-mail address.

Abstract: A system integrated to each of the tires mounted to a
vehicle allows each of the tires to communicate with a
mobile communicator, such as for example a mobile phone.
The system includes at least sensors for monitoring and
measuring the pressure and temperature of the tire. The
measured parameters of the tire are fed to a processor that
compensates the measured pressure with the measured
temperature. The temperature corrected tire pressure is then
stored in a memory store. A communications module,
operating under a wireless data link protocol such as for
example the Bluetooth protocol, sends the stored
information to a mobile phone, in response to a request
thereby. The temperature corrected data of the tire is also
transmitted to the other tires of the vehicle. Any one of the
tires may act as the server of all of the other tires for
transmitting the information of the respective tires of the
vehicle to the mobile phone, which acts as the browser.
Alternatively, the mobile phone could request that
information of the various tires be sent to it individually by
the respective tires. In place of Bluetooth signals being
transmitted from the tires, the tires may be equipped with
radio frequency (RF) transceiver modules that transmit RF
signals to a converter system, which converts the RF
signals into Bluetooth signals, which are then broadcast to
telecommunication devices adpatable to receive Bluetooth
signals.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une estimation de paramètres-clés indépendant du débit, caractéristiques de l'échange de monoxyde d'azote (NO) dans les poumons, à savoir : 1) la concentration alvéolaire stabilisée, Calv,ss; 2) le débit maximal de NO provenant des voies aériennes, JNO,max; et 3) la capacité de diffusion du NO dans les voies aériennes, DNO,air. Lesdits paramètres ont été estimés à partir d'une seule opération d'exhalation consistant en un blocage respiratoire pré-expiratoire, suivi d'une exhalation au cours de laquelle le débit diminue progressivement. Les valeurs moyennes de JNO,max, DNO,air, et de Calv,ss ne dépendent pas de la durée du blocage respiratoire, dans le cas de durées de blocage respiratoire supérieures à environ 10 secondes. Les estimations ∫i⊃a priori∫/i⊃ d'intervalles de confiance desdits paramètres démontrent qu'un blocage respiratoire d'une durée inférieure ou égale à 20 secondes peut être approprié. Lesdites estimations révèlent également que le paramètre JNO,max peut être estimé avec la plus faible incertitude et le paramètre DNO,air avec la plus grande incertitude.
