Abstract: Techniques for efficient signaling to a plurality of mobile stations are disclosed. In one embodiment, each of a plurality of symbol streams are encoded with one of a plurality of covering sequences, the covered symbol streams are combined to form a Code Division Multiplexed (CDM) signal, and the CDM signal is further covered by another covering sequence for code division multiplexing with one or more additional signals for transmission to a remote station. In another embodiment, a plurality of CDM signals are formed from the covered symbol streams, and the plurality of CDM signals are Time Division Multiplexed (TDM) prior to the further covering. In other embodiments, decovering and demultiplexing is performed to recover one or more of the symbol streams. Various other aspects are also presented. These aspects have the benefit of providing efficient utilization of the reverse link capacity, accommodating varying requirements such as low-latency, high throughput or differing quality of service, and reducing forward and reverse link overhead for providing these benefits, thus avoiding excessive interference and increasing capacity.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour extraire, sans déchets, de l'alumine, à partir de différents types de minerais de bauxite et de résidus de boues rouges, et du dioxyde de titane à partir d'ilménite. Ce procédé consiste tout d'abord à réduire l'oxyde de fer en fer métallique au-dessus du point de fusion d'un alliage de fonte saturé en carbone, ce qui permet d'obtenir un alliage de fer à haute teneur en carbone et des scories riches en oxyde métallique d'aluminium et de titane qui sont ensuite traitées avec du carbonate alcalin pour former des aluminates et des titanates alcalins. Ledit procédé consiste ensuite à séparer les aluminates alcalins par lixiviation à l'eau, opération au cours de laquelle l'hydroxyde d'alumine est précipité par formation de bulles de CO¿2?. Le résidu de la lixiviation à l'eau est traité avec de l'acide sulfurique et le TiO¿2? est précipité par hydrolyse. Ce procédé permet de récupérer la majeure partie de la valeur des métaux et génère seulement une faible quantité de résidus siliceux à un pH compris entre 4 et 5, ces derniers pouvant être utilisés pour le conditionnement du sol. L'invention concerne également un procédé pour la séparation sélective d'oxyde riche en TiO¿2? à partir de minerais titanifères/matières résiduelles par grillage en présence de carbonate(s) alcalin(s), puis par lixiviation à l'eau du matériau grillé et précipitation sélective du TiO¿2? dans des conditions régulées à un pH égal à 4.
