Patent CA-2268661-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RAGSDALE JAMES
IPC: H04W28/22
Filed: 1997-10-10
Abstract: La présente invention permet d'adapter une connexion de radiocommunication aux variations de largeur de bande en modifiant le type d'informations transmises. Par exemple, dans un environnement AMRT, une première tranche de temps en liaison descendante associée à une connexion à double ou triple débit peut être dotée d'un premier format, tandis qu'une deuxième tranche de temps associée à la même connexion peut être dotée d'un deuxième format différent du premier format. La largeur de bande de la deuxième (ou de la troisième) tranche de temps peut être utilisée pour transporter des informations sur une voie rapide hors bande (FOC). La FOC peut fournir des informations relatives à la même connexion que les données utiles ou le champ de données de cette tranche de temps, par exemple, un identificateur de type de service qui informe la station mobile ou la station fixe du type d'informations (vocales, vidéo ou données, par exemple) qui sont transmises dans les données utiles. Selon une variante, les informations de la FOC peuvent être associées à une ou plusieurs connexions différentes de celles qui sont prises en charge par les données utiles ou le champ de données contenant la FOC.

Filed: 1997-11-13
Abstract: A delivery catheter for delivering, orienting and releasing an endoprosthetic implant in a body lumen includes an elongate sheath adapted to maintain an expandable implant in a low profile configuration at the distal end of the sheath and a control handle at the proximal end of the sheath. An implant retainer is engageable with the trailing end of the implant and is connected to the handle. The implant retainer is controllably movable within the sheath to enable relative movement between the sheath and the implant. The sheath can be moved between a forward implant-capturing position in which the implant retention device is contained within the sheath and a rearward implant release position in which the implant retainer is disposed forwardly beyond the end of the sheath. A moveable mechanism associated with the handle includes detents to limit the extent of movement of the moveable portion of the handle to provide a sequential stage control that requires deliberate manipulation of the handle in order to progress from one stage of the delivery cycle to another.

Abstract: Le corps d'un ensemble de connexion est relié à la prise de terre d'un câble disposé à l'intérieur d'un boîtier. Le corps du connecteur comprend une bride radiale placée sur la surface externe du boîtier. Un écrou, vissé sur une partie du connecteur s'étendant à l'intérieur du boîtier, est utilisé pour fixer le corps du connecteur et établir ainsi une liaison de terre entre le corps du connecteur et le boîtier. Le panneau du boîtier sur lequel est monté le corps est mis à la terre. Un connecteur correspondant peut être fixé sur une partie du corps du connecteur prolongeant le boîtier vers l'extérieur. Pendant le fonctionnement normal, la fente dans laquelle est monté l'ensemble de connexion reste couverte. Toutefois, en cas de nécessité d'accéder à l'intérieur du boîtier, on peut extraire du panneau du boîtier le connecteur et les câbles qui l'accompagnent en retirant le couvercle, en desserrant l'écrou placé sur l'extrémité interne du corps du connecteur, et en faisant glisser l'ensemble connecteur-paire en câble hors de la fente. Le connecteur, et la paire en câble fixée sur ce dernier, peuvent être dégagés ensemble sans être séparés ou débranchés. La présente invention apporte une solution au problème qui exige de débrancher les paires en câble correspondantes pour effectuer un entretien, un contrôle, une réparation ou autre opération sur des composants électroniques encloisonnés, tels que la station de base d'un réseau de téléphonie mobile.
Patent CA-2281729-A1 (CA)
Title: Alternate routing for calls requiring monitoring
Inventor: PELTONEN ARI
IPC: H04W12/02
Filed: 1998-02-17
Abstract: A communication network, which includes a plurality of switches, routes a call from a receiving switch to a destination switch either directly or through an alternate switch. Either the receiving switch or the destination switch, or both, analyze the contents of a store to determine whether the calling party or the called party is marked for alternate routing. The call may be routed to the alternate switch either from the receiving switch or the destination switch if the call is marked for alternate routing. The inventive method includes transmitting a two part call information signal to the destination switch from the receiving switch if the call is not marked for alternate routing. If the call is marked for alternate routing, a three part call information signal is transmitted to the alternate switch. The alternate switch then recreates a two part call information signal and transmits that signal to the destination switch as it routes the call thereto.

Title: Laser diode array assembly made from a ridged monolithic substrate
Inventor: BONNIER DENI
IPC: H01S5/022
Filed: 1999-10-04
Abstract: The present document describes a novel architecture for high-power stacked laser diode array assemblies. The architecture relies on a monolithic substrate made from an electrically insulating material having a high thermal conductance. A set of thin parallel ridges is machined on a major surface of the substrate. Each ridge comprises a flat side wall perpendicular to the major surface of the substrate. This side wall has a depth comparable to the cavity length of the laser diode bars and it is machined with high precision. The other side wall of each ridge is tilted with respect to the opposite side wall. Laser diode bars are loaded into the channels formed between successive ridges, and the laser bars are then held firmly in place by wedging low-cost metallic wires between the N electrode of the bars and the tilted side wall of the neighboring ridge. The laser diode bars are then soldered to the metallized flat side walls using soldering techniques well known in the art, thus forming a two-dimensional array of accurately-positioned laser diode bars. The better precision that can be achieved in the positioning and alignment of the laser diode bars promotes the use of economical arrays of microlenses mounted in a single, prefabricated lens holder, thus giving affordable high-power laser diode arrays with collimated outputs.

Title: Loudspeaker array for enlarged sweet spot
Inventor: BAUCK JERALD L
IPC: H04S1/00
Filed: 1998-05-28
Abstract: The invention is a method of creating an enlarged listening sweet spot for multiloudspeaker audio reproduction. The method employs a plurality of audio drivers (52, 56) displaced generally in a horizontal dimension for a vertically oriented head of a listener (60), the drivers operating over a plurality of different passbands (42, 46). Higher frequency drivers (55, 59) are located closer to one another and displaced more towards a center line of the listening space than lower frequency drivers (53, 57), thereby causing a smaller change in acoustic ear signals for listeners (60) seated away from the designed-for listening position, but without causing increased low frequency signal capacity requirements for phantom images generally outside the array (50). Specially adapted signal processing accounting for the layout of the various drivers and their associated crossover networks (40) is employed to create desired audio images.

Filed: 2000-01-05
Abstract: A SIM smart card of the type having a microprocessor chip and memory for operational receipt of software applications, normally programmed for controlled access and selective operation of a GSM based mobile phone handset, is additionally provided golf handicap application software in its memory. The golf handicap application software includes a predetermined golf handicap calculation formula for selective operation of the GSM based handset in a golf handicap index mode. Data input and output features of the GSM based mobile phone handset are used for inputting golf scoring related data, such as a user's adjusted gross score for a round of play and corresponding course rating and slope rating associated with such round of play. The software application transforms such data input into a user's golf handicap index. The calculated index or other stored golf scoring records or golf related data generally may be selectively displayed with the output features of the handset, or otherwise transmitted to a remote location using mobile telephony operations of the handset. A pin designation operative with the SIM card memory and the handset permits controlled access to both telephony operations and a user's golf scoring records. Other forms of mobile phones and/or smart cards or integrated chips may be practiced, including the use of computer software applications residing on an integrated chip received in the mobile phone.
Patent CA-2294383-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REINHARD ANDREAS
IPC: B64D10/00
Filed: 1999-04-20
Abstract: The active part of the suit comprises in part one layer (3, 4) facing the body and another one facing away from it, both of a gas-tight, low stretch textile material, which are joined together at connecting positions (6) by gluing, welding or sewing and thereby create hollow spaces (5), which are connected together via valves (18) and can be put under pressure. Between the regions, which comprise the layers (3, 4) - bands (11, 12) - connecting parts (7) are arranged, which transmit tensile forces only. If the hollow spaces (5) are put under a gas pressure proportional to the z-acceleration, then the suit builds up a compensating applied pressure and thus frees the organism of the pilot from the loading effects of such accelerations. By a suitable choice of the width of the bands (11, 12) in conjunction with the radius of the enclosed part of the body a compensating pressure to the hydrostatic pressure, proportional to the acceleration, of the body fluids can be set up.
