Title: Controlling power transmission settings within a second air interface based on inferred propagtion conditions from those assessed in a first air interface
Inventor: OWEN RAYMOND
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2000-05-27
Abstract: A communication system (10, 68) includes a plurality of different, spectrally separated air-interfaces providing different services from co-located base sites (70-76). One of these air-interfaces, which may be CDMA, operates a universal frequency-re-use pattern across multiple cells (80, 88, 90), whereas other air-interfaces, such as GSM, have carrier frequencies that have a cell re-use pattern. A subscriber unit (12-16) within the system (10, 68) monitors an interference environment and path loss of at least some of the various different services to infer propagation conditions that are likely to be experienced within a spread spectrum service supported by the universal frequency re-use pattern. Armed with an assessment of a fade (82-86) condition within the system as a whole, implied by time and path loss from broadcast signals from different services, the subscriber unit can regulate and control its power transmission. Spread spectrum communication to a distant base station can be safe in the knowledge that high power transmissions from the subscriber are subject to deep fade when viewed by near-in base sites. Near-far problems associated with high power transmissions to near-in base sites can therefore be mitigated based on a level of confidence that is found in the fade condition determined by path loss in services ancillary to the spread spectrum service.

Title: Method of manufacture of a mixed polyamide yarn
Inventor: MARLOW STEPHEN WALTER
IPC: D02G3/04
Filed: 2001-02-27
Abstract: A method of making a mixed polyamide yarn includes the steps of; simultaneously spinning a first group of filaments 18 of a first polyamide and a second group of filaments 18' of a second polyamide which is different from the first polyamide; combining the first and second groups in an air interlacing jet 25; and, finally, winding up the interlaced filaments. The yarn may be wound up without an intermediate drawing step, thus resulting in a partially oriented yarn (POY), or with an intermediate drawing step, thus resulting in a fully drawn yarn (FDY). The method may include an additional step of texturing the mixed polyamide yarn by false twist texturing or airjet texturing. A mixed polyamide yarn, a textile fabric and a garment, all produced according to the method of the invention, are also described.

IPC: B41J2/14
Filed: 2001-05-21
Abstract: The printhead 10 comprises: partition walls 12 made of piezoelectric ceramic arranged on a board 11 with predetermined intervals; and ink chambers 13 defined between the respective partition walls 12. A driver voltage is applied to electrodes (14,Fig.2) provided on the side surfaces of the partition walls to change the capacity in the chambers 13 such that ink stored in the chambers is jetted from nozzle openings 21. The chambers are arranged in parallel between two upper and lower sheets 11a and 11b, which are made of a dielectric material having a light transmitting property, in the width direction with predetermined intervals, and also a plurality of the boards are laminated in the vertical direction. Because the sheets are transparent, a visual alignment of the chambers during head manufacture may be performed with high precision.

Title: Clothes drier
Inventor: ROGERS JOHN
IPC: D06F57/04
Filed: 1998-10-20
Abstract: A rotary clothes drier is disclosed in which the splay of the radial arms can be adjusted to take up slack in the clothes line as the line sags or stretches through use. The radial arms 14 of the drier are connected to a part 48 which is vertically movable on sleeve 52 which is fixed to the pole 12. Part 48 is moved by a fixable screw-threaded part 66 which mates with the screw-threaded section 58 on the sleeve 52. Rotation of the fixable part 66 causes it to rise on the screw-threaded section 58 resulting in increased splaying of the arms 14 to retighten the washing line. Part 66 is held in position on sleeve 52 by friction and low friction between parts 48 and 66 ensures that part 66 does not move when part 48 moves on it as the arms 14 rotate in the wind.

Title: Apparatus for laying a conduit on the seabed from a floating vessel
Inventor: SIMPSON NIGEL
IPC: F16L1/19
Filed: 2001-08-22
Abstract: Conduit 3 to be laid on the seabed from a floating conduit laying vessel 1 emerges from the bottom end of a vertically orientated linear tensioner 8b and is directed substantially vertically downwardly to pass through a surrounding guide 12, which causes the conduit to deviate from the vertical through a small acute angle (  R  ). In this way, the horizontal thrust that would be exerted on the tensioner 8b due to the tension in the conduit if the tensioner were to be the last guide means for the conduit before it enters the sea is transferred to the guide itself, this being mounted in the vessel at a location of greater structural strength, e.g. in a moonpool cover 13. If a moonpool is used, it is preferably rounded off at the bottom 15 to prevent damage to the conduit 3.
