Patent EP-0740480-A2 (EP)
Inventor: RAO USHA
IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 1996-04-17
Abstract: Intelligent call forwarding is implemented through an intelligent network. The intelligent network includes a Service Switching Point (SSP), a Service Control Point (SCP), and a Service Management System (SMS). A call to a network subscriber is routed to the SSP which is used to detect Call Forwarding "triggers" - conditions which require the SSP to initiate selective Call Forwarding service. When a Call Forwarding trigger is detected the SSP passes the calling party's number to the SCP and requests call handling instructions from the SCP. The SCP provides the call handling instructions, as provisioned by the subscriber, to the SSP, and the SSP then forwards the call in accordance with the instructions. The SMS formulates and sends commands to the SCP for such purposes as changing the stored subscriber instructions or updating service features. By provisioning the SCP with appropriate instructions the forwarding destination for a call may be made to depend upon the time of day, day of the week, caller's identity, and/or status of the called telephone.

Abstract: A circuit for driving a motor used to control the HVAC blend door in an automobile is disclosed. The circuit includes an amplifier circuit, a motor, and a three state driver circuit. The driver circuit includes three NPN bipolar transistors and two PNP bipolar transistors configured such that the output of the three state driver circuit is turned off if the input is at a intermediate voltage. The output of the three state driver circuit is at a high voltage if the input is at a low voltage. Conversely, the output of the three state driver circuit is at a low voltage when the input is at a high voltage.

Abstract: The disclosed method of making a mixed glass optical fiber exemplarily comprises providing a high-silica tube, and causing molten non-high silica glass to flow into the bore (12) of the tube by application of a pressure differential. In order to prevent cracking, the tube desirably has an outer diameter/inner diameter ratio of at least 5, preferably about 10 or even more, and an inner diameter of at most 1 mm. In a preferred embodiment, a conventional SiO 2  tube is partially collapsed to an inner diameter less than 1 mm, a quantity of a non-high-silica glass is placed in a neck of the partially collapsed tube and heated such that molten glass communicates with the reduced-diameter portion of the bore and can be drawn into the reduced-diameter portion by means of a vacuum. The resulting mixed glass body is then further stretched to result in a core rod of core diameter at most 0.3 mm. After overcladding the core rod with SiO 2 , fiber is drawn from the thus produced preform. A thus produced fiber with SiO 2  cladding and SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 -La 2 O 3 -Er 2 O 3  core was used as an optical fiber amplifier and provided high gain.

Abstract: The present process permits the use of more efficient, low viscosity fluids to efficiently perforate and fracture a subterranean formation in an overbalanced condition in the wellbore. In accordance with the invention, a method of decreasing the resistance to fluid flow in a subterranean formation around a well having a non-perforated casing fixed therein comprises:
     providing a low viscosity liquid having a density of less than about 2 grams per cubic centimeter in the casing opposite the formation to be treated,   providing a particulate proppant having a density matched with the low viscosity liquid suspended in the low viscosity liquid which has substantially neutral buoyancy in the liquid,   placing perforating means in the casing,   applying pressure to the liquid to a pressure at least as large as a fracturing pressure and,   activating the perforating means.   
     Optionally, at a time before pressure in the well at the depth of the formation to be treated has substantially decreased, the method may include the further step of injecting additional fluid at an effective rate to fracture the formation.

Abstract: Le système de détection permet de détecter et de localiser la décharge initiale, se produisant au début d'un éclair. La décharge initiale de l'éclair produit une impulsion qui peut être utilisée pour détecter avec précision l'éclair et, en particulier, pour localiser l'emplacement où se produit la décharge initiale de l'éclair. Dans un mode de réalisation, au moins trois détecteurs (102) détectent et déterminent l'emplacement des premières impulsions accompagnant la décharge initiale de l'éclair, en utilisant les différences de temps d'arrivée de l'information, à chacun des trois détecteurs. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, un seul détecteur sert à déterminer la distance de la décharge initiale d'un éclair, à partir de l'amplitude de l'impulsion initiale correspondante détectée, la direction étant détectée à l'aide d'une antenne à cadres croisés (206, 208). Dans un autre mode de réalisation, un seul détecteur (figure 7) détermine la distance à laquelle survient un éclair à partir de la valeur maximale de l'amplitude obtenue à partir de la distribution de l'amplitude de l'impulsion. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, un système de détection d'éclair permet une localisation améliorée en utilisant, en plus de l'information de détection de l'éclair, l'information métérorologique fournie par un radar météorologique.

Abstract: A level compression and/or gradation conversion of a color video signal are performed without causing any change in the hue of a picture represented by the color video signal. The knee compression and/or gradation conversion are carried out by multiplying red, green and blue primary color signals by a luminance gain, while the hue and saturation remain unaffected. If the level of any of the primary color signals still exceeds a predetermined threshold level, the saturation conversion is executed by using the saturation gain and the luminance signal supplied from a controller. In the saturation conversion operation, the maximum level of at least one of the red, green and blue primary color signals is made coincident with the predetermined threshold level while the hue and luminance of the picture represented by the color video signal are maintained unchanged.

Abstract: A gas turbine rotor steam gland (92) includes a
steam inlet supply scroll (94) for supplying steam
through radial slots (97) to an axially extending
passage (84) in the rotor (14) for steam cooling of hot
gas path component parts. The scroll (94) decreases in
diameter in the circumferential direction of cooling
medium flow to match its velocity with the surface
speed of the rotor (14). An aft labyrinth seal (110)
is provided about the rotor (14). Forwardly of the
scroll (94), a plurality of labyrinth-type seals

(96,98,100). The extraction ports (96,98,100) except

maintained at a pressure below the pressure of the
inlet supply steam whereby steam leakage past the seals
(102,104,106) flows into the extraction ports
(96,98,100) for removal. The final forward extraction
port (100) is maintained at sub-ambient pressure such
that final steam leakage past the forward seals and
ambient air leakage past the forwardmost seal (106)
combine and are extracted for the steam gland.

Abstract: One or more portions (221) of a database (220) which a primary server
(106) uses to process client requests are duplicated (211) on one or more

processing load on the primary server becomes excessive (400), the primary server
automatically off-loads the processing of those portions of the client requests that
require one or more of the duplicated portions onto the supplemental servers by
substituting (402) a secondary page (253) or a secondary object in its database that
points to the one or more duplicated portions in the supplemental servers for a
corresponding primary page (252) or a primary object in its database that points to
the one or more duplicated portions in its database. The supplemental servers then
serve the portions of the client requests that require the one or more of the
duplicated portions. As demand for service decreases and the primary server
becomes underloaded (404), it automatically restores (406) the primary page or the
primary object in its database and resumes serving the entire client requests.

assignment is possible. If the radio channel assignment
is possible, the radio resource selection unit 12i2 (i=1,
