Title: Improved flow control and quality of service provision for frame relay protocols
Inventor: UNITT BRIAN M
IPC: H04L12/413
Filed: 2003-03-07
Abstract: Apparatus and method for providing controlled Quality of Service over Ethernet-like links. Prioritised frames are allocated to transmission queues responsive to their priorities. Each queue has an associated subsidiary Ethernet MAC which transmits frames from its queue subject to a scheduler which selects from the set of MAC's according to a pre-determined algorithm. The multiple logical paths between corresponding pairs of transmitter and receiver subsidiary MAC's are preferably multiplexed over a single physical channel. If congestion occurs at the receiver, then Ethernet PAUSE frames may be sent back to the transmitter, directed to specific subsidiary MAC's - typically those with lower priority -to suspend transmission from the corresponding queue for a time period indicated in the PAUSE frame. In this way back pressure flow control may be applied selectively to so that large amounts of low priority traffic do not cause unnecessary delays to higher priority traffic.

Title: Bypass duct fan noise reduction assembly
Inventor: TSE MAN-CHUN
IPC: F02C7/24
Filed: 2001-11-16
Abstract: A gas turbine engine fan assembly includes fan blades spaced axially from stator vanes inside an annular bypass duct. A plurality of perforated baffle plates are installed in the annular bypass duct downstream of the stator vanes. The perforated baffle plates extend in a generally axial direction and are unevenly, circumferentially spaced apart from one another to divide a major section of the annular bypass duct into a plurality of axial flow-path segments in an asymmetrical pattern to disrupt continuity, destroy a symmetrical pattern and absorb sound energy of a spinning mode of sound pressures imbedded in the air flow downstream of the stator vanes, without substantially affecting a thrust provided by the air flow when discharged from the bypass duct. The invention provides a solution for suppressing rearward noise propagation of a fan BPF tone and higher harmonics thereof through the annular bypass duct of a gas turbine engine, which contributes to the reduction of aircraft noises, particularly during take-off.

Patent CA-2442901-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ELLIOTT ROBERT C
IPC: H04W72/12
Filed: 2003-09-23
Abstract: A method for scheduling packet data transmissions in a wireless communication system is described wherein a priority function is based on a channel state indicator (CSI), the projected average throughput of the users, and a tuning parameter designed to control the throughput and fairness characteristics of the scheduling algorithm. The method also considers fairness criteria dictated by predetermined Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. The channel state indicator may he a Requested Data Rate (RDR) or Carrier-to-Interference ratio (C/I) information. The base station calculates a priority function for the multiple mobile users.  Each priority function is a function of the CSI, the projected average throughput of a given mobile user, the average projected throughput over a set of users, and the tuning parameter.
