Abstract: A mounting arrangement for a handset, neckset and the like having a transmit and a receive end. A regular-shaped cavity is provided at the transmit end for receiving a higher order microphone capsule, having two or more poles. The capsule is symmetrically fixed with the geometrical center substantially corresponding with the geometrical center of the cavity. The transversal size of the capsule is less or equal to the depth of the cavity. In this way, the capsule is embedded into the cavity, and the cavity is covered with an acoustically transparent screen. There is space left between the poles of the microphone and the facing walls of the cavity for fooling the microphone that it is in free space.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne une composition nettoyante hygiénique ayant un pH inférieur à 6 ou supérieur à 8, comprenant: (a) 0,01 - 30 % en poids d'un tensioactif non ionique éthoxylé autre qu'un tensioactif dérivé d'un alkyl-phénol, ce tensioactif ayant une valeur de HLB de 10-14, ce qui correspond typiquement à un alcool éthoxylé en C8-C14 ayant 4-10 groupes éthoxy par molécule et (b) 1-30 % en poids d'un alcool en C1-C5 droit ou ramifié (choisi par exemple dans le groupe comprenant le propan-2-ol, le propanol, l'éthanol et leurs mélanges). On pense que l'utilisation de 1-30 % en poids d'un alcool en C1-C5 droit ou ramifié comme additif pour les tensioactifs non ioniques choisis améliore considérablement les propriétés biocides de la composition dans les conditions de pH spécifiées. Cette spécification concerne également un procédé de nettoyage et de désinfection d'une surface dure qui consiste à traiter cette surface avec ladite composition nettoyante.

Title: Method for manufacturing a casting-die body and a casting-die body
Inventor: RETHMANN RALF
IPC: B22D7/06
Filed: 1998-12-15
Granted: 2005-03-29
Abstract: A casting-die body (1) made of a hardenable copper alloy is provided with an inner wear-protective layer (7) of chromium whose hardness decreases from the billet-side surface (8) in the direction of the casting-die body (1). The wear-protective layer (7) is made up of two chromium layers (9, 10). For this purpose, the casting-die body (1) is given a solution heat treatment, is chromium plated, and is then hardened, as a result of which the initially very high hardness of the chromium layer (9) is reduced.  The hardness of the chromium layer (9) then is about 650 HV. Subsequently, to increase the wear protection, the second chromium layer (10) is applied. The result is a conventional chromium-plated layer having a hardness of between 850 HV and 1050 HV.

Ces sections sont réunies sous forme des sections indépendantes. La section de modification de matériau brut, la section de conversion catalytique et la section d'oxydation de CO sont agencées de telle sorte que la section de conversion catalytique et la section d'oxydation de CO sont chauffées indirectement par la chaleur transmise de la source de chaleur de la section de modification du matériau brut. Le chauffage indirect est assuré par un procédé de transmission thermique solide au moyen duquel la chaleur est transmise des phases externes de la chambre de combustion via un élément intermédiaire, un procédé utilisant la chaleur radiante et un procédé utilisant la chaleur des gaz d'échappement de combustion déchargés de la chambre de combustion. Etant donné que cet appareil de modification possède ces trois sections de réaction indépendantes, assemblées les unes aux autres, il peut être miniaturisé, et la chaleur provenant de la source thermique peut être utilisé de manière effective, la régulation de température dans les sections de réaction étant excellente.

Patent CA-2261824-C (CA)
Title: Digital modulation system using extended code set
Inventor: VAN NEE D J RICHARD
IPC: H04J13/10
Filed: 1999-02-15
Granted: 2005-05-10
Abstract: A digital (de)modulation system uses a larger code set of M codes for N length codes, where M > N, to provide an increased data rate while maintaining the coding gain. For example, the system can use 16 different codes each having a length of 11 chips in a code set while the conventional M-ary keying systems use a code set size of 8 for 11-chip codes or 8-chip codes. By extending the code set size, the system increases the data rate of the system. With 16 codes and the ability to change the sign of the code to be transmitted, the system can encode 5 data bits on both I and Q, so a total of 10 data bits can be encoded per code symbol. In this embodiment, a code symbol contains an 11 chip code on a I modulation branch and an 11 chip code on a Q modulation branch. As such, using 11 chip codes and a chip rate of 11 Mhz, the system provides a data rate of 10Mbps while conventional M-ary keying systems can only achieve 8Mbps using the same code length and chip rate. By extending the code length, the processing gain is increased. The extended code set is not orthogonal, so a non-zero cross-correlation value results between the different codes of the code set. However, the resulting noise and multipath performance degradation can be kept small by choosing code sets with small cross-correlation values (nearly orthogonal). The magnitudes of both cross-correlation values and auto- correlation sidelobes should preferably be below half a code length. In some embodiments, the code set is derived from orthogonal codes which are modified to reduce the autocorrelation sidelobes associated with the orthogonal codes. In other embodiments, the code set is derived using a complementary code which provides low autocorrelation sidelobes and is modified to reduce the cross-correlation values between the codes.
