Patent CA-2283062-C (CA)
Title: E-mail communication apparatus, image communication apparatus having the same, internet facsimile apparatus, and e-mail communication method
Inventor: AKIMOTO MASAO
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1999-09-09
Granted: 2003-07-29
Abstract: An input value from a panel is analyzed by mail address analyze means. A determination section performs determination based on the analysis result. When an identification character "@" is detected in the input value, the determination section instructs an encryption processing section to execute encryption processing, which is made to correspond to the identification character "@". A mail transmitting section transmits data subjected to encryption processing in accordance with an e-mail transfer protocol. An operator has only to add the identification character "@" to a recipient address from the panel so that an image communication apparatus executes encryption processing. This eliminates the need for adding a new button when a new function is added to the image communication apparatus.

Title: Method for matching data rates
Inventor: ULRICH THOMAS
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1999-10-01
Granted: 2008-06-10
Abstract: According to the invention, a ser-vice-specific static rate adaptation factor that controls a service-specific quality of service is determined in a manner already known per se. A dynamic rate-oriented rate adaptation factor is determined for a link, whereby said factor adapts the hypo-thetical volume of data to a volume of data that is available in the next frame while tak-ing into account the adaptation of the ser-vice-specific data rate that is yet to be per-formed. It is possible to pass through sev-eral optimization loops if said data volume is not rigidly predetermined as a result of a sufficient number of transmission channels and spread factors. A service-specific rate adaptation factor is determined by combin-ing the static rate adaptation factor and the dynamic link-oriented rate adaptation factor, whereupon one single and therefore one-step adaptation of the data rate is carried out. Service data is thus compressed or expanded only once with said service-specific rate adaptation factors and inputted into a frame for transmission. The method is suitable for CDMA transmission methods within a UMTS.

Abstract: A drive-on system for installing a tire chain (i.e., snow chain) on a pneumatic tire mounted on a vehicle wheel. The system includes a U-shaped installation tool whose arms releasably engage fastening elements (hooks or links) at one end of each side chain, and a installation tray or ramp in which the connected tire chain and tool are arranged, and may be stored, prior to installation, with the tire chain in a partially laid-out orientation and the tool preferably within a tool compartment in the tray. To install the tire chain, the vehicle is driven onto the tray and stopped, preferably in a predetermined optimum position in response to a signal initiated by a position-indicating switch on the tray. Then the tool, with one end of the tire chain connected to it and trailing it, is drawn upward and circumferentially around the tire. With the tool bridging the tread of the tire so that its arms extend along the opposite sidewalls, the tire chain is draped and tensioned substantially in the correct position on the tire. The fastening element at the other, free end of each side chain is then removed from its place in the tray and connected to the mating fastening element. The connection on the inner sidewall is preferably made while the tool is still connected, which enables the arm of the tool on the inner sidewall to be used to guide the free element into contact and connection with the element connected to the tool.
