Patent AT-E536844-T1 (AT)
Inventor: MCLEAN GEORGE

Granted: 2011-12-15
Abstract: A retinal prosthesis that provides power control capabilities through the temporal integration of electrical charge is provided. The retinal prosthesis comprises at least one stimulating component, each stimulating component in turn comprising a photojunction element (e.g., a photodiode) in electrical communication with an electrode. A pulse generation circuit provides a reverse-bias signal and, from time to time, a pulsatile forward-bias signal to the photojunction element. During application of the reverse-bias signal, light incident upon the photojunction element causes electrical charge to be accumulated. Upon application of the pulsatile forward-bias signal, the accumulated electrical charge is injected via the electrode into retinal tissues, thereby stimulating the retina. By appropriately selecting the bias signal parameters, a sufficient amount of charge may be accumulated to ensure reaching stimulation thresholds. In this manner, control over stimulus currents may be improved while still retaining advantageous use of the eye's natural focusing and imaging capabilities.

Abstract: Techniques to configure quality of service (QoS) and utilize radio resources for a call in a WLAN are described. In an aspect, a station ensures that an access point in the WLAN is suitable for receiving service prior to performing registration to receive services via the WLAN. In another aspect, the station first requests for radio resources for traffic flows, then requests for radio resources for signaling flows, and sends signaling as best effort traffic if radio resources are not granted for the signaling flows. In yet another aspect, the station aggregates QoS for multiple applications and requests for radio resources based on the aggregated QoS. In yet another aspect, the station releases extra radio resources corresponding to the difference between the QoS granted by the WLAN and the QoS proposed by a remote terminal for the call. In yet another aspect, the station requests for the same QoS or lower from a new access point during handoff.

Abstract: A connection between a communications terminal (1) and a communications network is arranged such that on detection of imminent (341,352) degradation or loss of such connection, the utilisation of the connection is maximised in advance of such degradation. The network temporarily reallocates the maximum bandwidth that the terminal is capable of using to that terminal (1), which may result in a small temporary degradation of the bandwidth available to other terminals (33), and the terminal (1) downloads the data most likely to be required next to a cache (352) (in the case of specific web pages, identified by recent accession, bookmarks, or hyperlinks from the page currently being viewed), or a buffer (if the data is being streamed) using this extra bandwidth made available. Streamed data may be accelerated by omitting error correction data, colour difference data or other elements in order to maximise the duration of the data that can be placed in the buffer in the time available. 
Warning of the impending impairment (30) may be given by degrading the perceived quality of the output in advance of the actual impairment, thereby giving the user the opportunity to take any action possible to reverse or delay the actual impairment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for transmitting data between a reading device (100) and a portable data carrier (200) by means of capacitive coupling. One of two capacitive data carrier coupling surfaces (230, 240) of the data carrier (200) is arranged on one of two associated capacitive reading device coupling surfaces (130, 140). By means of a signal source (110) of the reading device (100), a reading device differential voltage (U1) is produced between two reading device coupling surfaces (130, 140), the voltage being picked up by the data carrier (200) between associated data carrier coupling surfaces (230, 240) as the data carrier differential voltage (U2) and being interpreted as data signal. During operation of the data carrier (200), at least one of the electrically conductive surfaces of the data carrier (200), which is used as a data carrier coupling surface (230, 240), takes on a function that is different from the function of a capacitive coupling surface.
