Abstract: A method and apparatus for operating a cellular telephone system that supports performing an inter-system soft handoff is described. A subscriber unit generates a pilot strength measurement report when the pilot channel from a base station is detected. When a base station controller receiving the pilot strength measurement report determines that the base station is part of a second cellular telephone system, a inter-system soft handoff request is generated. An admission control subsystem receives the inter-system soft handoff and either grants or denies the request base on the traffic level with the second cellular telephone system. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the traffic level is determined based on link load messages received periodically by the admission control subsystem that are generated by an interface port coupled to an interconnect between the first cellular telephone system and the second cellular telephone system. The link load message include peak queue length and average frame rate information.

Abstract: A dowelling jig for preparing aligned bores in corresponding joint faces of two work pieces which are to be joined using dowels, includes a spacer plate having opposite flat sides against which the side faces of the work pieces are placed and held. First and second drill guide arms are removable secured by securing arrangements to the spacer plate and to extend away therefrom in opposite directions, each arm providing a flat surface against which a joint surface of one of the work pieces is to abut. At least one line of through-bores are provided in each of the drill guide arms for guiding a drill bit at right angles into the work piece. The thickness of each guide arm is such that each through-bore has an axial length sufficient for guiding a hand held drill to drill a work piece bore substantially at right angles to the joint surface. The line extending along the guide arm parallel to an edge which abuts the spacer plate and the line of through bores on one arm corresponding in position to a through-bores on the other arm is such that the bores align when the joint faces of the work piece are brought into abutment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for testing the authenticity of a data carrier (1) and/or an external device (2) which enters into data exchange with the data carrier (1). According to the invention, the data carrier (1) and the external device (2) are each equipped with a special additional apparatus (4, 6) for generating and/or testing authenticity data. Data transmission between the data carrier (1) and the external device (2) as required for authenticity testing is performed at least partly via a special transmission channel (B). The transmission channel (B) for transmitting authenticity data is separated physically or logically from a transmission channel (A) for transmitting standard data so that there is no mutual interference of data transmission via the two transmission channels (A, B). In authenticity testing, the additional apparatuses for generating and/or testing authenticity data (4, 6) of the data carrier (1) and external device (2) and optionally also the transmission channel (B) for authenticity data must meet special demands which cannot be met by conventional designs. The transmission channel (B) for transmitting authenticity data is activable during the total time period between activation and deactivation of the data carrier (1) so that authenticity testing can be performed anytime.

Abstract: Toothpaste and other dentifrices formulated to include a volume increasing agent (density reducing agent) in order to significantly increase the volume of the toothpaste at the time it is dispensed onto a toothbrush. The inventive dental compositions preferably include a substantial quantity of entrained air or other gas in order to reduce the density, and hence the weight, of toothpaste actually placed within a person's mouth. The result is a reduction in the amount of active ingredients introduced into a person's mouth that might be ingested. The entrained air or other gas can also increase the availability of the active ingredient since the foamed composition increases the dispersibility of the active ingredients within saliva. The net effect is that a person decreases the actual amount of toothpaste without decreasing the volume, or visual amount, of toothpaste dispensed on the toothbrush. The density-reduction effect can be augmented using a low density filler in addition to, or instead of, entrained gas. The inventive dentifrices might be pre-foamed with a storage container or formulated to foam in situ when dispensed from the storage container.

To this end, the article is configured in such a way that the layer (44) forming the exterior surface facing away from the body is a film layer. The outside of said film layer is corona-treated so that this area has a higher level of wettability - of between 35 and 50 dyn/cm - than untreated areas of the film layer. This ensures that the first fixing element (72) adheres more strongly.

Abstract: A network architecture and service platform for providing virtual private network services ("VPN") over an ATM network. The architecture provides services for voice, video, and data traffic among multiple VPN customers over a shared ATM network by implementing intelligent control devices to perform enhanced processing of ATM call setup messages, including validations and routing translations. Hierarchical routing mechanisms provided by ATM, along with customized customer addressing schemes, are used to overlay customer VPNs as higher-level networks onto the shared ATM network. The control devices translate customer ATM VPN address to internal ATM network addresses. The ATM switch network then performs lower-level network processing, using internal network addressing, to setup a virtual connection for a VPN call. The intelligent control devices may also explicitly state the end-to-end route.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'identification de séquence de bruits pseudo-aléatoires dans le récepteur d'un système de communications à AMCR. Ce récepteur reçoit des premiers codes d'or orthogonaux (OGC) sur un canal de synchronisation primaire, et des seconds OGC sur un canal de synchronisation secondaire synchronisé avec le canal primaire symbole par symbole. Dans ce dispositif d'identification de séquence de bruits pseudo-aléatoires, un premier détecteur d'OGC détecte les premiers OGC, et permet d'obtenir une énergie de premiers symboles. Un premier synchroniseur reçoit l'énergie de premiers symboles, synchronise les microplaquettes, les symboles et les intervalles de temps, et produit un premier signal de synchronisation. Un second détecteur d'OGC, à la réception du premier signal de synchronisation, détecte le second OGC chaque fois que le premier signal de synchronisation est reçu, et permet d'obtenir des énergies de seconds symboles dans des unités de groupe identifiant une station de base. Un générateur de motifs de sauts de fréquence compare l'énergie de premiers symboles aux énergies de seconds symboles, détermine si des signes nuls se trouvent dans les seconds OGC, détermine le cas échéant l'ordre des signes nuls, et produit un motif de saut de fréquence des seconds OGC. Un second synchroniseur synchronise des trames en fonction du motif de saut de fréquence et produit un second signal de synchronisation. Un générateur de séquences pseudo-aléatoires reçoit les premier et second signaux et le motif de saut de fréquence, et produit une séquence pseudo-aléatoire.

Abstract: A system and method that makes more efficient utilization of BTS resources when BTSs are employed in time of arrival (TOA) measurements as is common in mobile positioning operations. A maximum signaling delay is assumed for which BTS resource assignment is delayed by a default time span in the event of an impending TOA measurement thereby allowing the BTS availment of the resources which would otherwise be idle yet assigned and therefore unavailable for other BTS functions during the period of signaling delay. The period of resource assignment delay may be increased or decreased, the actual adaption of the delay dependent on the true signaling delay.
