Title: Preamble based uplink power control for LTE
Inventor: PRASAD MALLADI DURGA
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2008-02-14
Granted: 2011-06-23
Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate utilizing power control preambles with closed loop power control techniques in a wireless communication environment. An uplink grant can be transferred over a downlink (e.g., a first uplink grant after uplink inactivity), and a power control preamble can be sent over an uplink in response to the uplink grant. According to an example, transmission of the power control preamble can be explicitly scheduled and/or implicitly scheduled. The power control preamble can be transmitted at a power level determined by an access terminal utilizing an open loop power control mechanism. A base station can analyze the power control preamble and generate a power control command based thereupon to correct the power level employed by the access terminal. The access terminal can thereafter utilize the power control command to adjust the power level for uplink data transmission.

Filed: 2009-03-23
Granted: 2012-02-23
Abstract: Abstract The present disclosure provides a method of manufacture of a multi-layer pipe by means of a bending roller. The method is characterized in that individual material layers to be combined into a multi-layer pipe are put onto each other with a material layer acting as an external pipe constituting a base plate having approximately alongside its two longitudinal edges or approximately parallel to it a, preferably welded, stop edge. The material layer above is positioned loosely between these stop edges and the thus constituted multi-layer material is shaped into a multi-layer pipe by means of the bending roller. The material layer acting as an internal pipe is clamped between the stop edges. Further, the material layer acting as an internal pipe is pressed in the final stage of the pipe shaping in the bending roller and/or bending machine subsequently used as a result non-positively into the material layer acting as an external pipe.

Title: Method and device for determining positions
Inventor: BERNHARD SPRENGER
IPC: G01D5/249

Granted: 2011-09-29
Abstract: To determine the positions of a code on a movable support, said support (2) can be moved in a displacement direction relative to a sensor element (S1, S2, S3, S4) comprising at least one sensor array in the vicinity of said array. The sensor array or arrays determine(s) the position of imaged code elements that can be differentiated from radiation in the vicinity of the sensor elements (S1, S2, S3, S4), the recorded values being read out in at least one read-out direction and positional values being determined from said values. The array or arrays is or are read out twice from opposite read-out directions, or one sensor pair consisting of two sensor arrays, each having an array-specific read-out direction relative to the displacement direction of the support, is read out as a pair from opposite directions. Positional values are derived from the positions of the differentiated code elements and said values are averaged to provide a position with an improved accuracy. The accuracy can thus be increased by simple means.
