Title: Process and apparatus for the manufacture of a corrugated wafer board panel
Inventor: BACH LARS
IPC: B27N5/00
Filed: 1989-08-22
Granted: 1991-05-30
Abstract: A platen assembly is provided having a working surface which can be mechanically converted between planar and corrugated configurations. A mat of wood wafers (27) coated with thermosetting resin binder is deposited between upper and lower, spaced apart platen assemblies (1) of this type. The platen assemblies (1), in the planar configuration, are then pressed together to a limited extent to pre-compress the mat to fix the wafers. Horizontal force is then applied to the platen assemblies to convert them to the corrugated configuration, with the pre-compressed mat retained therebetween. The mat is therefore forced to adopt a corrugated form. The platen assemblies are then further pressed together and heated, to cure the resin and produced a corrugated wafer board panel.

Date Aug. 22, 1996The position of a mobile station in a cellular mobile telephone system, particularly a GSM system, is determined by carrying out a simulated call setup, i.e., the call setup is interrupted subsequent to a telephone switching center (MSC) having received a paging response containing the identity of the cell and, optionally, a timing advance. The simulated call setup is initiated by generating a modified short message signal (SMS) which is not registered in the SMS catalogue of the mobile station and which is not shown to the user of the mobile station. The SMS commands the mobile station to carry out a position determining sequence in order to establish parameters for use in establishing the position of the mobile station, for example by commanding the mobile station to connect itself to a base station contained in its neighbor list, analyze the geographical position of the base station, and subsequently send the position determining parameters to a position handler. The geographical position of the base station is analyzed from the cell identity and, if available, the timing advance, the position of the mobile station being presented graphically on a picture screen and constantly updated after each call setup. The call setups are generated by the position handler.

Title: System and method for reducing call dropping rates in a multi-beam communication system
Inventor: ANTONIO FRANKLIN P
IPC: H04W48/08
Filed: 1999-07-21
Granted: 2003-07-24
Abstract: A method for reducing call dropping rates in a multi-beam communication system. The multi-beam communication system includes a user terminal, a gateway, and a plurality of beam sources, where each beam source projects a plurality of beams, and where a communication link between the user terminal and the gateway is established on one or more beams. The method according to the present invention relies on a messaging protocol between the gateway and the user terminal. Based on messages sent from the user terminal to the gateway, preferably on a preselected periodic basis, the gateway can determine the more desirable beam(s) for transmitting data or information to the user terminal. The messages sent from the user terminal to the gateway contain values representing beam strengths as measured at the user terminal. The gateway uses the user terminal measured beam strengths to select the beams that should be used for transmitting data or information to the user terminal. The beams that should be used are the beams that if used will decrease the call dropping rates and provide a desired level of beam source diversity.
