Title: Communicating internet packet data over a packet radio network
Inventor: CHEN XIAOBAO
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2004-07-30
Abstract: A telecommunications system for communicating internet packets 5 in accordance with a first internet protocol (IPv6) via a packet radio (GPRS) network (1, fig.1) operable in accordance with a second internet protocol (IPv4). A user equipment (UE) 2 requests a bearer 14 for communicating IPv4 data to and from a gateway support node (GGSN) 3 of the packet radio network (1, fig.1). The GGSN 3 establishes a tunnelling protocol bearer 14 for communicating the IPv4 data and, in combination with the UE 2, forms a link local address comprising an interface identifier, including a tunnelling end identifier of the tunnelling protocol bearer 14 that ends at a GGSN 3 of the core network part of the packet radio network (1, fig. 1), and an address component, which identifies the address as being local to the packet radio network (1, fig.1) according to IPv6. A request for an IPv6 address is communicated to an address allocation server 17 using the link local address and the allocated IPv6 address is then used for communication.

Abstract: A cellular communication system comprises a base station (101) and a plurality of user equipment (103). The base station (101) comprises a combine processor (111) which combines user equipment specific information, such as power control commands or synchronisation information, for a plurality of user equipment (103). An encode processor 113 encodes the combined user equipment specific information and a transceiver 109 transmits the combined user equipment specific information in a minimum transmission resource unit of the cellular communication system. The minimum transmission resource unit may be a single channelisation code in a single time slot. The UE (103) comprises a receiver (115) for receiving the minimum transmission resource unit and a UE data processor (117) which decodes the minimum transmission resource unit and extracts the user equipment specific information for that UE (103). The invention may provide a more efficient communication of small data blocks.

Title: A flexible main distribution frame arrangement for connection of subscriber loops to a digital subscriber line interface
Inventor: GOETZER MARTIN
IPC: H04M11/06
Filed: 2005-11-25
Abstract: Each copper pair 602 of a subscriber cable 502 may be coupled via a crossover matrix 108 and distribution matrices 104,106 to a splitter 116 for connection to a multi-service access node 510. The MSAN 510 provides a high frequency xDSL signal while the main cable 514 provides access to low frequency POTS and ISDN services at an exchange. New subscribers for xDSL may be coupled to the MSAN by control from a remote location so that no field Engineer visit is required. The use of two coupled distribution matrices provides flexibility. Multiple distribution frames 100,504,506,508 may be coupled together 512. The arrangement's flexibility allows the use of distribution matrices with less than complete input-output connectability. Local loop unbundling is possible (figure 16).

Title: Method for interpreting seismic data using duplex waves
Inventor: MARMALYEVSKYY NAUM
IPC: G01V1/00
Filed: 2004-08-18
Abstract: A Method for Interpreting Seismic Data Using Duplex Waves is described. Whereas substantially horizontal boundaries are readily identified using conventional processing methods based on primary reflections, it has been difficult or impossible to use such methods for locating substantially vertical events or boundaries. The method of the present invention uses secondary reflections to locate substantially vertical events by gathering common source or receiver traces for processing. Wave fields of these gathers are continued downward to the level of the base boundary, then at each discrete depth level, a seismic image of sub-vertical events is formed. The downward-continued gathers correspond to the travel time of the wave from when it left the source or the receiver point, was reflected from the base boundary, and arrived to the corresponding point of the discrete level of wave-field continuation. In order to increase the noise tolerance of the resulting image of the target sub-vertical event - seismic images, obtained from the common source and receiver gathers, may also be summed together or stacked.

Title: Method for testing superconductor under increased load in a NMR magnet
Inventor: FRANTZ WOLFGANG
IPC: H01F6/00
Filed: 2006-06-23
Abstract: Method for testing a new superconducting wire through charging an actively shielded magnet coil configuration (20) which comprises a first partial region (21) which can be superconductingly short-circuited using an additional switch (23). A superconductor to be tested is used in this first partial region (21). Operating currents are determined for both partial regions (21, 22), which have the desired excess current in the first partial region, with the overall field Bo only slightly differing from the standard operating field of the magnet coil configuration. These operating currents are adjusted through initial charging of the overall magnet coil configuration (20), thereby taking into consideration the inductive coupling between the partial regions (21, 22), and after closing of the additional switch (23) by continuing the charging or discharging process in the second partial region (22) only. This permits inexpensive testing of a superconductor in a series-produced NMR magnet under NMR conditions.
