Title: Mobile station for a cdma communication system and method for communication of the mobile station
Inventor: KUSAKA HIROYUKI
IPC: H04W36/36
Filed: 2001-03-27
Abstract: If the strength of the signal transmitted from a remaining base station is larger than that from the active base station, the search control unit 103 shifts to the confirmation mode, where the remaining base station is designated as a confirmation target remaining base station.  Then, if the strength of the signal transmitted from the confirmation target remaining base station is larger than that from the active base station, a counter is incremented.  If the counter value becomes a predetermined value R, a hand-off is performed to the remaining base station. In case that the strength of the signal transmitted from the confirmation target remaining base station becomes not larger than that from the active base station, the confirmation mode is terminated at that point to return to the normal mode.

Patent CA-2347592-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REEVE ANDREW
IPC: H04L12/937
Filed: 2001-05-15
Abstract: The invention relates to cell level scheduling for handling multicast traffic in routing devices, for example cross-bar switches. The routing device has a plurality of ingress line interface cards (LICs), a plurality of egress LICs, a cross-bar and a controller. Multicast and unicast data traffic passes from the ingress LICs via the cross-bar to the egress LICs. A given multicast data packet is sent from a given ingress LIC to a predetermined set of egress LICs known as the fanout of the given packet. Each ingress LIC has an associated rate of send opportunities. The inventive method allows multicast send opportunities to be spread as evenly as possible over cell periods. The method also invokes a conventional unicast scheduling scheme when no multicast send opportunity is scheduled and a multicast scheduling scheme when one or more multicast send opportunities are present. The schedule is filled out with the fanouts of multicast packets in accordance with the send priority associated with the respective ingress LICs upon which each of the respective multicast packets is queued.

Title: Ion source for mass analyser
Inventor: GILES ROGER
IPC: G01N27/62
Filed: 2000-02-02
Abstract: An ion source for a mass spectrome-ter includes an atmospheric pressure sample ioniser (20), arranged to generate ionised sam-ple droplets for ingress into an ion block (50).  The block (50) has an entrance orifice cone (70) in communication with an inlet channel (60), and an outlet channel (80) which has a first end that intersects the inlet channel (60) at 90°  thereto. The other end of the outlet channel (80) opens into an evacuation chamber (90) which is pumped via a rotary vacuum pump (110). The reduced pressure within the channels of the ion block (50) draws sample droplets therethrough.  An exit orifice defined by an exit orifice cone (130) is formed in the outlet channel (80) and sample ions pass through into a mass analyser region (180). The right-angle bend between the inlet and outlet channels introduces turbu-lence and promotes desolvation. Streaming of droplets from the entrance cone (70) to the exit cone (130) is also prevented.

Filed: 2000-12-29
Abstract: There is provided a data transmitting method in a CDMA system. In the CDMA  system, a control hold state and an active state are set for data transmission between a mobile station and a base station. The control hold state is entered to transmit a control signal on a dedicated control channel and the active state is divided into a low rate transmission substate for transmitting a small amount of data on the dedicated control channel or/and a fundamental channel and a high rate transmission substate for transmitting a large amount of data on a supplemental channel and on at least one of the dedicated control channel and the fundamental channel. When a large amount of user data is generated in the mobile station, the mobile station generates a supplemental channel request message including supplemental channel request information needed to transit from the control hold state to the high rate transmission substate without interposition of the low rate transmission substate and state transition information needed to transit from the control hold state to the active state, and transmits the supplemental channel request message to the base station.

Title: Method for producing coated reinforcing threads made of high-performance fibres
Inventor: FRENKEN JOHANNES
IPC: C03C25/12
Filed: 2000-03-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing impregnated reinforcing threads made of high-performance fibres, especially glass fibres, carbon fibres and aramide fibres. The threads are impregnated in a polymer dip at a  zerotwist or a producertwist of <= 120 twists/m. The impregnated threads are then drawn through a nozzle and are subsequently dried in a first heating zo ne in a superficial manner, however, are still kept damp in the nucleus. Said threads are then provided with a twist of up to 400 twists/m in a second heating zone and are fixed in said twist by additional heating. Reinforcing threads produced according to the inventive method are characterised by an intimate impregnation with polymers and thus by high stability under load an d fatigue strength under reversed bending stresses. Furthermore, the threads have a compact, constant cross-section over the length thereof. Such reinforcing threads are particularly useful for reinforcing driving belts an d high-pressure hoses. Woven and non-woven fabrics can be produced from said threads and can be used for reinforcing tyres, conveying belts and the like.

Title: Gum pad for delivery of medication to mucosal tissues
Inventor: YATES ALAYNE
IPC: A61K38/095
Filed: 2000-04-18
Abstract: The gum pad (10) is a laminate composed of: (a) a synthetic base or backing layer (12) which is configured to be held in place on the gingiva (gums) in the mouth;  (b) an intermediate reservoir layer (14) for containing medication (16) therein; and (c) a semi-permeable outer layer (18) facing outwardly towards the oral mucosal tissue (22) in the mouth which will allow saliva to enter and dissolve the medication in the reservoir layer (14) into solution and pass the diffused saliva-medication solution out-wardly to the oral mucosal tissue (22). The backing layer is placed on the gum so that the semi-permeable outer layer (18) faces outwardly toward the buccal mucosa (22). Saliva enters the semi-permeable layer (18) and dissolves the medication in the reservoir layer (14), then diffuses outwardly through the semi-permeable layer (18) to the mucosal tissue in the mouth where it is readily absorbed into the circulatory system. The gum pad (10) can be used for the topical or systemic delivery of a wide range of pharmaceutical and nutritional agents, for the treatment of a variety of human disorders and diseases.
