Abstract: Embodiments of a biometric radar system and method for identifying a person's positional state are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the biometric radar (100) includes phase adjusters (108) to phase adjust a sequence of radar return signals received through two or more receive antennas (102) to force coherency against stationary objects and remove at least some phase noise due to the stationary objects. The biometric radar also includes a signal processor (110) to segment the phase adjusted radar return signals into a plurality of multi-resolutional Doppler components. Each multi-resolutional Doppler component may be associated with one of a plurality of biometric features (122). The biometric radar system also includes a neural network (112) to combine and weight the segmented radar returns for each biometric feature to generate weighted classifications (115) for a feature extraction process. Biometric radar system (100) may determine whether the person is walking, talking, standing, sitting, or sleeping.

Title: Process and system for producing commercial quality carbon dioxide from high solids lime mud
Inventor: ROSSI ROBERT A
IPC: C01B32/50
Filed: 2007-08-24
Granted: 2016-12-06
Abstract: The invention features methods and systems for producing commercial quality carbon dioxide (CO2) of 90% to +99% purity using, wet calcium carbonate lime mud produced in a manufacturing operation, for instance, Kraft pulp mill lime mud (a.k.a., "lime mud") as a feedstock to a multi-stage lime mud calcination process. This process may be fueled with waste water treatment plant (WWTP), sludge biomass, precipitated lignins, coal, or other low cost solid fuels. High reactivity "soft-burned" lime product ("calcine") required in the mill's chemical recovery circuit is also produced, and steam and heated boiler feed-water is generated and exported to the mill's steam distribution and generation system as well as hot process water for use in the mill's boiler house and manufacturing operation. The system for calcining calcium carbonate lime mud produced from a re-causticizing manufacturing operation and converting it to re-burned lime and CO2 comprises a calciner and a combustor linked by a moving media heat transfer (MMHT) system or apparatus. The MMHT system or apparatus thermally links separate fluid bed combustion (exothermic) and calcination (endothermic) stages with a solid particulate media. The system further comprises a flash dryer or spray dryer that utilizes exhausted heat from the calcination stage.

Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and method for negotiating a frame offset between a Base Station (BS) and a Relay Station (RS) in a wireless communication system using a multi-hop relay scheme. A communication method of a superordinate station includes, upon detecting an initial access of an relay station, determining an offset value between a frame number used in the superordinate station and a frame number to be used in the relay station; generating a message including RS frame offset information corresponding to the offset value; and transmitting the generated message to the relay station. Accordingly, since the base station and the relay station share the frame offset, the base station can transmit a specific broadcast message in advance to the relay station by considering the frame offset, and the relay station can transmit data, which has to be transmitted in synchronization with the base station at the same time point or at the same frame number, to a Mobile Station (MS) at an exact time point.

Abstract: With the help of a fixing device for catalyser particles, wherein the catalyser particles are packed in a bed which can be passed through by a gas flow in the direction of gravity, it is intended to achieve a minimum specific pressure loss which will remain low even if dirt should arise from the operating process; a fixing device which has a minimum influence on the period of presence of the gas flowing through; which ensures the reliable hold-down of the catalyser particles even at high approach velocities; and which is flexible to a certain degree in order to adapt to bed changes.   This is achieved by placing at least one layer of a metal braiding (10) on the packed bed (3) of the catalyser particles, and the metal braiding (10) consisting of individual metal braiding elements (11) which are firmly braided together.
