Title: Apparatus and method for handling messages that relate to a cell other than the currently operating cell in universal mobile telecommunications system user equipment
Inventor: FARNSWORTH ANDREW JOHN
IPC: H04W4/12
Filed: 2004-11-09
Granted: 2012-01-10
Abstract: Methods for handling of messages that relate to a cell other than the cell with which a user equipment (UE) device is currently communicating in a universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS) network. The network does not forward to the UE device any messages which were generated for the user equipment device when communicating with a first cell after receiving a message indicating that the UE device has changed to communicate with a second cell. Alternatively, the UE device does not fully operate on a received message, the message being directed to a cell different from the cell with which the UE device is currently communicating. Or, the UE device delays changing to a new cell until a received message is acted upon. Or, alternatively, whenever a cell update message is to be sent from the UE device to the network, the message indicating a cell re-selection, the UE device carries out any steps required when a cell re- selection is performed.

Title: Fabrication of waveguides and bragg gratings with uv-irradiation
Inventor: SMITH PETER GEORGE ROBIN
IPC: G02B6/13
Filed: 2003-05-19
Granted: 2011-09-20
Abstract: A method of simultaneously defining a waveguide and grating in a sample of photosensitive material comprises providing a sample of material (24) having a region which is photosensitive to light of a specific wavelength, generating a spot of light (22) at the specific wavelength, the spot having a periodic intensity pattern of high and low intensity fringes, and a width which is related to the width of the channel, positioning the spot within the photosensitive region and causing relative movement between the sample and the light spot along the desired path of the waveguide/grating define a channel of altered refractive index by exposing parts of the photosensitive region to the light spot. Modulation of the light spot to produce multiple exposures produces a grating, while continuous exposure results in a uniform waveguide. These structures can be written in straight lines or around curves, and can be accurately overwritten, so that complex optical devices can be produced in a single fabrication step.

Title: Overload indicator for a load supporting apparatus
Inventor: VETESNIK JAN
IPC: B66C13/16
Filed: 2005-11-18
Granted: 2012-07-17
Abstract: An overload indicator for a load supporting apparatus is arranged to bend during overloading of the apparatus, thereby visually indicating the overload to a user or observer. The indicator features a longitudinal member having a U- shaped cross section defining one central and two side portions. A series of slots extend into each side portion from a side opposite the central portion such that the member will bend concavely with respect to that side, moving opposite ends of the member closer together. The indicator is arranged to extend between connection points on a first member and a second load supporting member of the apparatus in order to bend in response to excessive loading of the second member. The bending moves the connection points of the two members closer together, thus bringing the load closer to the first member.
