Patent EP-0892526-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GREENBERG MARTIN G
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1998-07-16
Abstract: The present invention pertains to a method for providing
service to entities. The method comprises the steps of receiving
a first request for service by a server within a predetermined time
from a first entity. Next there is the step of receiving a second
request for service by the server within the predetermined time
from a second entity. Then there is the step of reducing the
service to be provided by the server to the first entity so the
second entity can be provided service by the server within the
predetermined time. The present invention pertains to a system for
providing service. The system comprises N entities, where N is
greater than or equal to 2. Each of the N entities require
service. The system comprises a server which provides service to
the N entities. Also, the system comprises a scheduler connected
to the entities and the server. The scheduler provides service to
the N entities by reducing the amount of service to at least one of
the N entities from the server until all of the N entities receive
their minimum amount of service.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for recording actual time used by
a service which makes requests for data. The apparatus
includes a first timer for recording time during which the
service is in operation and a second timer rendered
operable when the service requests data. The second timer
is operable to disable the first timer to suspend the
recording of the time when the second timer acquires a
value exceeding a pre-defined value, representing the time
during which the service is waiting for data in response
to a request for data and the second timer re-enables the
first timer when the data is received.

Abstract: A random pulse type radar apparatus sends out as an
output signal a spectrum spread radio wave including a
pseudo random signal-less period and receives echoes in
this signal-less period to thereby significantly reduce
transmission peak power. The random pulse type radar
apparatus comprises a transmitter for generating a hybrid
type spectrum spread signal by simultaneously using two
kinds of modulations which are phase shift keying
modulation for selecting a phase of a transmission radio
wave in accordance with a pseudo noise digital code and
outputting the transmission wave, and time hopping
modulation for stopping transmission of a radio wave at
random in accordance with the pseudo noise digital code; a
receiving unit for selectively detecting an echo of a
transmission signal radio wave, generated by the
transmitter, from a target with a time delay; at least one
a common antenna unit for use both for transmission and
reception or antenna units installed close to each other
and respectively serving single functional units; and a
reception control unit for stopping an action of the
receiving unit in a time zone in which the transmitter is
outputting radio waves in accordance with the time hopping
modulation, whereby a spatial distribution of an intensity
of an echo of a transmitted radio wave is measured through
computation of a cross-correlation function of a
transmission signal and a reception signal.

Abstract: The invention relates to delivery of short messages to mobile stations and particularly to delivery of short messages in mobility-supporting packet radio networks that use a mobile communications network as an access network, to a dual-mode mobile station in a situation where the mobile station is not reachable in the packet radio network. The object of the invention is to minimize unnecessary signalling. The invention is based on the fact that parameters controlling the network elements are inserted into the signalling messages and a flag indicating the state of the mobile station is inserted into the home location register. The method and radio network of the invention, the signalling messages may contain parameters by means of which 1) delivery of a short message through the secondary network is prevented, 2) information on the fact that an attempt was made to reach the mobile station but the attempt was not successful is sent to the node of the secondary network, 3) the node of the secondary network is prevented from informing the home location register of the mobile station of the attach of the mobile station to the network, 4) information is sent to the home location register on the fact that the mobile station cannot be reached through the primary network, and 5) information is sent to the gateway mobile switching center for short message service on the fact that the mobile station can be reached through the primary network even though the short message was delivered through the secondary network.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un dispositif d'affichage par scannage (10/40/60/80), qui amène directement une source lumineuse (42/62/84) à effectuer un mouvement de balayage le long d'au moins un trajet de scannage, plutôt que de produire à partir de cette source de lumière un faisceau lumineux qui effectuerait le mouvement de balayage le long de ce trajet de scannage. En amenant la source de lumière à effectuer le mouvement de balayage, un scanneur plus léger et de plus petite taille, sans miroir, peut être utilisé pour produire le mouvement de balayage de la source lumineuse le long du trajet de scannage désiré. Un élément en porte-à-faux résonnant (44) assure le mouvement de translation d'une ou de plusieurs sources ponctuelles (notamment une pour un affichage monochromatique et des sources rouge, verte et bleu pour un affichage RVB). L'élément en porte-à-faux est mû par un circuit d'attaque électromagnétique (50) ou par un actuateur d'excitation piézo-électrique (82). La source de lumière est constituée par une ou plusieurs sources ponctuelles à diodes électroluminescentes (42), par une ou plusieurs sources ponctuelles à fibres optiques (62) ou par une ou plusieurs sources ponctuelles polymères photoémettrices.

Abstract: The invention specifies a switched-mode power
supply in which a forward converter is combined with a
flyback converter when only one transformer (TR) is used.
The forward converter comprises the transformer (TR), a
storage coil (L1), a switch (Sp) on the primary side and
a storage capacitor (Ca) on the secondary side. The
energy stored in the storage capacitor (Ca) is
transferred to a further winding of the transformer (TR),
for example a high-voltage winding (WH), using a switch
(Ss) which operates on the flyback-converter principle
and is arranged on the secondary side on a winding (W2)
of the transformer (TR). In this arrangement, the power
drawn from the output winding (WH) determines the value
of the voltage to which the storage capacitor (Ca) is
charged. 
     The switched-mode power supply can be used, in
particular, for high-voltage generation for a television
set or a computer monitor. To generate a high picture
power, it can be connected to the mains directly via a
bridge rectifier.
