Abstract: Disclosed are a frame for multiplexing multi-traffic frames of layers 1
to 3 on a same carrier wave and an apparatus thereof. 
     A frame 400 is constituted of an overhead 410 and a payload 420.
The overhead 410 is constituted of: a data length identifier 430 indicating a
frame or a payload length; a flow identifier 440 indicating an attribute of the
frame 400; and a frame header overhead error check (FHEC) 450 storing a
result obtained by converting bytes from the head to a specified M-th byte of
the frame 400 into a numerical value of n bytes according to a certain coding
method. As for a length of the payload 420, up to a maximum length
computed from the data length identifier 430 of the overhead can be stored.
In the payload 420, traffics for the layers 1 to 3 can be accommodated. Even
if the ATM cell and the frame 400 are multiplexed, since coding methods for
the FHEC 450 and the HEC are different, the ATM cell and the frame 400
can be extracted individually.

Abstract: In an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based spread spectrum
multiple access system the entire bandwidth is divided into orthogonal tones, and all of
the orthogonal tones are reused in each cell. To reduce peak-to-average ratio at the
mobile transmitter, each voice user is allocated preferably a single one, but no more than
a very small number, of the orthogonal tones for use in communicating with the base
station. Data users are similarly allocated tones for data communication, however, the
number of tones assigned for each particular data user is a function of the data rate for
that user. The tone assignment for a given user is not always the same within the
available band, but instead the tones assigned to each user are hopped over time. More
specifically, in the downlink, the tones assigned to each user are change relatively
rapidly, e.g., from symbol to symbol, i.e., the user fast "hops" from one tone to another.
However, in the uplink, preferably slow hopping is employed to allow efficient
modulation of the uplink signal which necessitates the employing of additional
techniques, such as interleaving, to compensate for the reduction in the intercell
interference averaging effect. For data communication power control is employed in the
uplink and/or downlink so that the transmission rate is increased, e.g., by increasing the
number of symbols transmitted per tone per unit time or the coding rate, as a function of
allocated power per tone and the corresponding channel attenuation.

Abstract: A mounting assistance device (20) with which a vibrating device
can be efficiently mounted to a tire and wheel assembly. In the
mounting assistance device (20), abutting portions (22B) are made to abut
against sidewall portions of a tire (92) and then an eccentric disc (46) is pressed
against a sliding portion (24A) so as to be united therewith by lowering a
lever of a handle member (48) in a first direction. In this state, when the
lever (52) is rotated 180° about a pin member in a second direction, due to
an effect of the eccentric disc, clamping members move in a mutually
approaching direction. Accordingly, clamping and fixing to the tire is
accomplished by the mounting assistance device (20). Thus, the mounting
assistance device (and vibrating device) can be mounted without using
tools, simply by rotating the lever (52) in the two directions.

proximately positioned on the substrate, and of equivalent length. The input and
output portions of each fiber are interconnected by a u-shaped connecting
portion (308), and each connecting portion is positioned to have a unique and pre-determined
length. The predetermined lengths differences are equivalent to a fiber
length that would be traversed by the input signal
during a time period required for the transmission of a predetermined number of
bits. The input portions of the fibers are coupled to an
optical splitter (314) which provides one copy of an input signal substantially
simultaneously to each of the input portions. In a preferred embodiment of the
invention, a planar heater and overcoating are used to control the thermal profile
across the plurality of fibers. The device has also an optical combiner

Abstract: The system and method discriminates P-waves or other electrical
events originating in the atria from R-waves or other electrical events
originating in the ventricles. In one example, far-field R-waves in the atria
are distinguished from true P-waves using both a post-ventricular atrial
blanking (PVAB) interval and a separate pre-ventricular blanking interval
(pre-VAB) interval. Insofar as the pre-VAB interval is concerned, upon
detection of a P-wave in the atria, the implantable medical device begins
tracking a pre-VAB interval. If an R-wave is then detected in the
ventricles during the pre-VAB interval, the P-wave is rejected as being a
far-field R-wave. A PVAB interval may also be employed to filter out any
P-waves detected in the atria immediately following detection of an R-wave
in the ventricles. In another example, far-field R-waves are
distinguished from true P-waves using template matching. P-waves
detected in the atria are compared against a template representative of
true P-waves. If the P-wave substantially matches the template, the P-wave
is deemed to be a true P-wave; otherwise, the P-wave is rejected
as being a far-field R-wave or other anomalous electrical event. In both
examples, the techniques are applicable to other types of electrical
events detected within the heart besides P-waves and R-waves, such as
electrical events occurring during fibrillation or flutter when discrete P-waves
and R-waves may not be detectable.
