Abstract: The present invention relates to a link quality determination unit (LQ-DET) for determining a link quality (LQ) of a transmission link (TL) between an OFDM transmitter (TR) and an OFDM receiver (RC) of an OFDM transmission system (SYS). A first link quality measure determination unit (Q1-DET) determines a first link quality measure (Q1) on the basis of a signal power variation or a signal-to-noise variation determined by a variation determination unit (VS-DET). A second link quality determination unit (Q2-DET) calculates a second link quality measure (Q2) on the basis of an average signal-to-noise ratio based on the noise power (Pz) and the signal power (Ps). To perform a link adaptation (LA) an overall link quality determination unit (Q-DET) combines the first and second link quality measures (Q1, Q2) into an overall link quality measure (Q). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An array boundary checking method is disclosed for providing hardware based array boundary checking in a Java environment. During the first machine cycle of a current array access command, an array reference value is loaded into a system-data address controller and an array boundary checker. Next, during the second machine cycle of the current array access command, an array index value is written to the system-data address controller and the array boundary checker. Also during the second machine cycle of the current array access command, a maximum array index value is read from the Java array and written to the array boundary checker. The array boundary checker utilizes these values to determine the validity of the current array access command. Finally, during the third machine cycle an array value is accessed in memory. In the present invention the array value is only accessed when the current array access command is valid.

Abstract: A control apparatus for an automatic transmission achieves a predetermined speed-change operation from sixth speed to third speed through a pre-phase speed-change operation in which a first engagement element (B1) and a third engagement element (C1) are released and engaged respectively and through a post-phase speed-change operation in which a second engagement element (C2) and a fourth engagement element (C3) are released and engaged respectively. The control apparatus sets a target rotational acceleration of an input shaft of the transmission, and controls release of the second engagement element for a transition to the post-phase speed-change operation in accordance with the target rotational acceleration. Thus, the input speed during the transition from the pre-phase speed-change operation to the post-phase speed-change operation changes continuously, so that bluntness is prevented from being caused between the pre-stage and post-stage speed-change operations.

Abstract: L'invention concerne le traitement des mesures réalisées au moyen d'un outil de diagraphie acoustique à cadres croisés dans un forage afin de déterminer les directions principales d'anisotropie azimutale d'une formation souterraine. Des mesures, telles que sur des pistes de données (601, 603), sont aussi réalisées aux fins de corrélation et de comparaison de diagraphie de rayons gamma (621), de diagraphie de densité (631) et de diagraphie neutronique de porosité (611). Des mesures, indicatrices de variations diagraphiques de résistivité azimutale et de conductivité, sont aussi réalisées au moyen d'un outil de diagraphie d'induction à composantes multiples permettant de réaliser des mesures électriques à un certain nombre de fréquences différentes couvrant aussi un domaine de profondeurs différentes de forages. Ces mesures électriques sont traitées au moyen de la direction principale, déterminée à partir des mesures acoustiques, afin d'obtenir une estimation des variations de résistivité azimutale. Reposant sur des résultats de modélisation, les variations de résistivité azimutale sont interprétées afin d'estimer une profondeur et une largeur de fracture dans la roche pour des fluides connus contenus à l'intérieur.

Abstract: An optical fiber cable including a buffer tube wherein the optical unit is maintained in an axial center location of the buffer tube and protected from contact with an inner wall of the buffer tube. At least first and second gel layers are interposed between the buffer tube and the optical unit, wherein the first gel layer surrounds the optical unit, the second gel layer surrounds the first gel layer, and the first and second gel layers have different rheological properties. The inner gel layer may have a yield stress and a viscosity which are lower than a yield stress and a viscosity of the outer gel layer. The lower yield stress and viscosity of the inner gel layer serves to maintain the optical unit in an axial center position within the buffer tube and facilitates easy re-positioning of the optical unit to the axial center position when the buffer tube is flexed or bent. As a result, the optical unit may be maintained in a low stress state and stress-induced attenuation may be prevented. <IMAGE>
