Abstract: Il est possible de perfectionner un système de communications radioélectriques numériques comprenant un décodeur de canal à décisions pondérées sous-optimales (par exemple des erreurs ou effacements) ainsi qu'un décodeur de parole, en contournant efficacement le décodeur de canal à décisions fermes et en permettant l'utilisation d'un décodeur à décision pondérée (par exemple estimation de séquence par maximum de vraisemblance (MLSE)) et haute performance, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de déconnecter ou d'enlever physiquement le décodeur de canal à décisions fermes. Le nouveau décodeur peut fournir au décodeur existant le choix exact de vecteur r' reçu, afin de forcer le décodeur existant à produire un certain mot de code y' et une certaine estimation b' d'erreur de binaire. Cette technique est utile pour essayer des nouveaux décodeurs à MLSE sur des systèmes radioélectriques existants ou pour ajouter un décodeur à MLSE aux fins d'amélioration de récepteurs existants.
Patent CA-2251316-A1 (CA)

IPC: B60L3/00
Filed: 1998-10-23
Abstract: The function of a two-way end-of-train (EOT) system is coordinated with the operation of the brake equipment on a locomotive of a train according to the steps of a novel method. This method enables the brakes to be applied during an emergency in a way which minimizes the buff and draft forces produced within the train. The method includes the steps of: (1) monitoring the train for signs of an emergency by using the brake equipment of the locomotives (2) determining, if an emergency has occurred, whether the emergency is due to disjoining of the train; (3) waiting a preset time period, if the emergency was caused by disjoining of the train, before causing the brake equipment of the locomotive, to command the two-way EOT system to initiate an emergency application of the brakes from a rear part of the train; and (4) waiting an alternative time period, if the emergency was caused other than by disjoining of the train, before causing the brake equipment of the locomotive to command the two-way EOT system to initiate the emergency application of the brakes from the rear part of the train.

Abstract: A lamp aligning clip is presented for holding a lamp, preferably of the ceramic arc tube metal halide type, securely in place in a lampholder having opposed lamp retainer arms.  The lamp aligning clip has a flexibly rigid body having a central portion and two side portions.  When the clip is installed on the lampholder, the two side portions are flexed slightly outward, resulting in a reactive spring force against the opposing lamp retainer arms.  The lamp retainer arms then engage the lamp, holding the lamp securely in place.

Abstract: In the teaching of an image analysis system, a video image of a reference object is captured. Several areas, each of which represents a class (22, 23), are marked on the video image, which is divided into pixels having their separate identification, such as colour. Once all classes have been formed, each class is given a colour which is assigned to all pixels in the class irrespective of identification. Pixels which may belong to more than one class, a so-called conflict class (24), and pixels which do not belong to any class, a so-called 0 class (25), are transferred to a residual class. Then the entire video image is processed in that the pixels which are not represented in the zero class (25) or the conflict class (24), are given a colour value from the class having a pixel identification which is closest to the pixel concerned. The principles of the invention may be applied in general in connection with analysis techniques where objects may be characterized by means of an N-dimensional set of parameters. This provides a method which can teach an image analysis system in a quick and safe manner for use e.g. in connection with analysis of cells/tissue, analysis of cuts of meat, metallurgical analyses and other similar fields.

Inventor: MEERMANS DAVID R
IPC: H04M3/53
Filed: 1997-06-26
Abstract: A system for providing phone mail service for customers using either conventional voice telephones or text telephone units. The system of the present invention includes a phone mail unit (104) for receiving a message from a caller and a switch (108) connected to the phone mail unit for receiving the message and routing it to a translation unit (140) for translation. The system also includes a gateway (120) for receiving a data packet, containing call information related to the message. The data packet is routed to a console (128) in the translation unit. A control interface (112) is disposed between the gateway and the console. The control interface transfers the data packet from the gateway to the console. A communications assistant (124) of the translation unit receives the message and data packet and translates the message from voice-to-text or text-to-voice. The translated message is then sent back to the customer's mailbox for storage and subsequent retrieval. The translated message may also be sent to the customer's electronic mailbox, pager and/or Internet address for retrieval.

Title: Gas phase anionic polymerization of diene elastomers
Inventor: HERGENROTHER WILLIAM L
IPC: C08F2/34
Filed: 1999-03-11
Abstract: The invention provides solid supported anionic catalysts, suitable for gas phase anionic polymerization of conjugated diene monomers, that are useful for anionically producing very high molecular weight branched diene polymers, such as styrene butadiene rubber, polybutadiene rubber, polyisoprene rubber, and the like. The catalysts comprise a metalatable particle, such as a bound rubber, a thermoplastic polymer or a cured elastomer, that is multiply metalated with Group IA alkali metal atoms. The multi-branched diene polymers obtained by gas phase anionic polymerization employing the catalysts exhibit desirable properties, such as an extremely high molecular weight, a controlled molecular weight distribution, T g and vinyl content, and the ability to readily absorb hydrocarbon solvents and oils. The polymers are easily compounded to form vulcanizable elastomeric compounds and articles, such as tires, that have excellent resistance to wear and tear and exhibit reduced hysteresis properties.

Title: Apparatus and method for expanding service area of cdma mobile communication system
Inventor: CHUNG CHAE HUN
IPC: H04Q7/36
Filed: 1999-04-29
Abstract: An apparatus and method for expanding a service area of a code division multiple access (CDMA) system restricted in terms of timing. The service area of a CDMA mobile communication system, which is defined by a radius longer than a radius of a communication supported area, namely, a cell, restricted in terms of timing due to the hardware of a base station modem ASIC equipped in the system, is radially divided into a plurality of radial zones by a constant distance not longer than a maximum possible cell radius allowed by the base station modem ASIC. In accordance with the present invention, signal processing units are used which are configured in such a fashion that one of them covers the entire zone of the service area in regard to forward links from an associated base station to mobile stations in different zones of the service area while covering only the zone nearest to the base station in regard to reverse links from the mobile stations to the base station. The remaining signal processing units cover reverse links associated with the remaining zones of the service area, respectively. By such a configuration, it is possible to extend the radius of the cell limited in terms of timing.

Inventor: RICHARDS DANIEL
IPC: G11B7/26
Filed: 1999-05-27
Abstract: A method is disclosed for modifying an optical storage device that includes a data layer between a base layer and a reflective layer. The reflective layer includes an internal area to be saved, an external area to be removed, and a border between the internal and external areas. The method includes the following steps: applying pressure to the internal area adjacent the border; scoring the optical storage device along the border by cutting through the reflective and data layers and into the base layer; removing the reflective layer from the external area; cutting through the base and data layers in the external area at a distance from the border. Preferably, the scoring step produces a burr in the base layer in the external area adjacent the border. It is also preferable to apply laquer to the score to seal the base, data and reflective layers in the internal area along the border. It is also preferable to add a protective layer adjacent the reflective layer by attaching the protective layer to the data layer in the external area.
