Title: Telecommunications system for generating a three-level customer behavior profile and for detecting deviation from the profile to identify fraud
Inventor: PINKAS GADI
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 2000-04-18
Abstract: Telecommunications apparatus and method for detecting any unusual activity in customer behaviour. A comprehensive behavior profile of a customer is generated on the basis of customer transactions.

Any behavior deviation from the profile is detected and identified as fraudulent or unusual.
Patent CA-2371384-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WICHMAN RISTO
IPC: H04B7/06
Filed: 1999-05-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a transmit diversity method for a wireless communication system comprising a transmitting element and at least one receiver, wherein a transmission signal is transmitted from the transmitting element to the at least one receiver in accordance with a weight information determined in response to a feedback information.      The feedback information is derived from the response at the at least one receiver to the transmission signal, and is fed back using multiplexed feedback signals.      Multiple feedback signal quantization constellations and/or constellation specific feedback subchannels can be used for channel probing, such that the total feedback resolution and robustness can be enhanced, while maintaining low signaling capacity of the feedback channel.
Patent CA-2371746-A1 (CA)
Title: Closure device
Inventor: CHEN CHIH-HUNG
IPC: B65D33/25
Filed: 1999-06-10
Abstract: The closure device (121) includes first and sec-ond interlocking fastening strips (130, 131) arranged to be in-terlocked over a predetermined length and a slider (132) which slidably engages the first and second fastening strips. The fas-tening strips have a longitudinal X axis (160), a transverse Y axis (162) and a vertical Z axis (164). The slider (132) facilitates the occlusion of the fastening strips (130, 131) when moved towards a first end of the fastening strips and deocclusion of the fasten-ing strips when moved towards a second end of the fastening strips. The fastening strips (130, 131) are occluded and deoc-cluded by moving the first fastening strip relative to the second fastening strip in substantially the vertical Z axis (164). The fas-tening strips may also move in the Y axis (162), rotate or deflect during occlusion. In addition, the fastening strips may include a locking feature (1244, 1245) to prevent unintentional deocclu-sion.

Inventor: SCOTT DAVID A
IPC: B23P19/02
Filed: 2002-02-28
Abstract: Un appareil et une méthode permettant la dépose d'un tube de force au raccord d'extrémité d'un réacteur nucléaire. Une série de rainures sont fraisées dans la surface intérieure du tube de force dans la zone de raccord du rouleau au moyen d'un outil de fraisage allongé inséré dans le tube de force. La fraise comprend une mèche de fraise rotative qui peut être contrôlée pour une position longitudinale et rotationnelle et une profondeur de coupe depuis l'extrémité proximale de la fraise. Une fois les rainures fraisées, la fraise est retirée et remplacée par un outil pliable allongé. L'outil pliable est doté d'une paire de mâchoires qui engage les rainures fraisées et tire la paroi du tube de force à l'intérieur en le libérant du raccord d'extrémité. L'utilisation de la présente invention évite l'exigence de retirer les deux raccords d'extrémité pour remplacer un tube de force.

Title: Tie down device and method of use
Inventor: COMBES BRIAN H
IPC: B60J7/10
Filed: 2000-06-16
Abstract: A tie down device for sheet material such as tarpaulin (12) and the like is disclosed. The device includes a bar (14) and a sleeve (17). The sleeve (17) has a slit extending from end to end thereof for receiving the bar (14) as well as sheet material which extends around the bar (14) and outwardly through the slit of the sleeve (17) on opposite sides of the bar (14). In addition, a rope (19) is secured to the bar (14) which extends through the slit when the bar (14) is received in the sleeve (17). The rope (19) enables the device to be placed under tension so that the bar (14) binds the sheet material extending around the bar (14) against the sleeve (17). This binding action firmly secures the sheet material to the device and thereby prevents the sheet material from slipping out of the device between the bar (14) and sleeve (17).

Title: Low profile delivery system for stent and graft deployment and method for deployment
Inventor: YEE CARL E
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 2000-06-02
Abstract: A delivery system for endoluminal deployment of a stent inside of a biocompatible graft cover minimizes obstruction of endoluminal fluid flow during deployment. The delivery system comprises a stent sheath, a compressed stent underlying the stent sheath, and a graft overlying the stent sheath and releasably retained in a compressed state surrounding the sheath. The graft distal end is attached to the stent at or proximal the stent distal end, and the graft outer surface is exposed to the interior space of the lumen during deployment. The proximal end of the graft may be attached to the stent sheath by a releasable attachment adapted for release during deployment of the stent, or may be otherwise constrained, such as by heat deformation, to remain adjacent the outer circumference of the stent prior to deployment. The releasable attachment may be a suture that is severed by a pusher having a cutter therein. The delivery system may further include an inner core underlying the stent and connected to a tip sheath that overlies the stent distal end. One method of deploying the stent and overlying graft comprises advancing the tip sheath to allow the stent distal end to expand, retracting the stent sheath to cause the suture to be severed by the pusher cutter therefore allowing endoluminal fluid to flow between the graft and the sheath, and then completing deployment of the stent to urge the graft against the lumen wall.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé analytique de discrimination de données obtenues à partir d'échantillons présentant des répartitions se chevauchant et d'amélioration et d'évaluation de la validité statistique d'un signal d'hybridation dans les tableaux d'analyse. Ce procédé consiste à convolutionner des données pour en faire deux ou plusieurs signaux et non signaux représentant des densités de probabilité distinctes, des fluors distincts, ou d'autres variables indépendantes convolutionnées. Ce système utilise les fonctions de densité de probabilité pour affecter objectivement des signaux d'hybridation à l'une des répartitions modélisées. Des procédés ultérieurs permettent d'évaluer la variabilité inhérente aux tableaux, et d'utiliser ces variations ainsi évaluées pour établir des résultats de fiabilité et des limites de confiance pour des tableaux complets d'hybridation et pour des analyses d'hybridation distinctes au sein des tableaux.

Abstract: An emergency telephone call is supported and routed to a Public Safety Answering Point (PAP) in an IP based packet Switched wireless communications network. An activate PDP context request is sent from a user equipment to the network. A parameter in said activate PDP context request indicates that the PDP context will be used to transfer an emergency call. An activate PDP  context accept message is returned from said support node to said user equipment. Said activate PDP context accept message acknowledges said activate PDP context request message and provides the address of a call state control function. A call setup request transferred to the call state control function includes the Service Area Identity (SAI). The call state control function selects a PSAP based, at least in part, on the SAI included in the call setup request and forwards the emergency call to the selected PSAP.
