Title: Base station architecture for a mobile communications system
Inventor: ANDERSSON RUTGER
IPC: H04J3/00
Filed: 1998-10-06
Abstract: A base transceiver station (100) for a mobile communications system is disclosed, which is divided into a plurality of functional units (102, 104, 106) that enables the signal processing resources to be flexibly allocated and cost-effectively implemented in hardware. A flexible communications interface is created between the base transceiver station units (102, 104, 106) which allows the signal processing resources within the units to be used more efficiently. Essentially, the base transceiver station (100) hardware is dimensioned to statistically distribute the signal processing resources among the different radio transmission services available. Consequently, the allocated base transceiver station hardware can be used more efficiently, which minimizes the overall size and weight of the base station.

Title: A method for multiple-access communication
Inventor: MARTIN BEATRICE
IPC: H04J3/00
Filed: 2000-09-25
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for transmitting information blocks from a transmitter to a receiver over a multiple access channel shared among a plurality of transmitters.      According to the invention, the transmitter selects an access slot, called reference access slot, among a set of available access slots to transmit a first information block. If the first information block is properly received by the receiver, the latter actualize the set of available access slots by excluding at least one access slot from the set of available access slots, where the excluded access slot is deduced from the reference access slot thanks to a predefined deterministic law.      In particular, once the terminal has detected that the first information block has been received by the receiver without collision, the terminal transmits further available information blocks in access slots deduced from the reference access slot thanks to the same predefined deterministic law as in the receiver.

Patent CA-2330444-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAYASHI MASAKI
IPC: H04W52/22
Filed: 2000-03-06
Abstract: The value of transmission power is calculated according to a TPC command by a CL-TPC section (162) after line set-up, and closed-loop transmission power control is performed.      Simultaneously the value of transmission power is calculated based on the reception level by an OL-TPC section (161). A correction value is calculated from the difference between the values of transmission power outputted from the CL-TPC and OL-TPC sections (162, 161) by a correction value calculating section (164). After the correction value is determined, switches (167, 169) are operated by a mode changing section (165), and open-loop transmission power control is performed by using the sum of the value of transmission power based on the reception level and the correction value. Thus the reception level measurement error can be corrected without high reception measurement accuracy, and rapid phasing and strong interference wave, if occurring, can be dealt with.

Abstract: An interface (66) between a dual mode mobile station (60) and a piece of data terminal equipment (64) supports both a logical digital interface (66(1)) and a logical analog interface (65(2)), with the analog interface passing through a modem. At set-up of either a mobile originated or mobile terminated data/fax call, a supporting dual mode communications network (62) determines whether n digital traffic channel (52) is available on an air interface. It so, the channel is allocated to the mobile station, and data/fax communication with the data terminal equipment occurs using the logical digital interface.  Otherwise, an analog voice channel is allocated, and the data/fax communication with the data terminal equipment occurs using the logical analog interface and modem. Within the supporting network, data/fax communications via the digital traffic channel are routed through an interworking functionality (72) that terminates a radio link protocol utilized for communicating aver the digital air interface. Analog voice channel data/fax communications are instead routed through a modem pool (70) that terminates a selected modem protocol utilized by the modem for communicating over the analog air interface.

Title: Pharmacological targeting of mrna cap formation
Inventor: SHUMAN STEWART
IPC: C12N1/19
Filed: 1999-11-09
Abstract: This invention provides methods for the discovery of molecules that target an essential aspect of eukaryotic gene expression - the formation of the mRNA 5' cap m7GpppN. An underlying principle of this invention is the use of different strains of a test organism that differ only in the composition or source of the essential cap-forming enzymes. The invention provides isogenic yeast strains that derive all their capping activities from fungal sources versus mammalian sources. These strains form the basis of a differential growth inhibition assay to identify molecules that specifically target the fungal capping apparatus. This invention also provides a method to screen in vitro for molecules that inhibit fungal RNA triphosphatase, an essential enzyme that catalyzes the first of three steps in cap synthesis.
