Abstract: Cette invention a trait à une technique (Fig. 2) permettant de procéder à l'expédition d'un paquet contenant des articles achetés par un client (S21), paquet devant être livré à une adresse inconnue du vendeur. Cette technique consiste à recevoir une demande relative à un code d'emballage émanant du vendeur, à adresser ce code au vendeur (S24), ce code ne portant pas d'information d'adresse de destination, et à envoyer un identificateur d'expédition ainsi qu'une adresse associée à l'expéditeur (S25). Celui-ci, après avoir récupéré le paquet chez le vendeur aux fins d'expédition, compare le code d'emballage envoyé au vendeur à l'identificateur d'expédition et identifie l'adresse associée comme étant l'adresse de destination du paquet. Une étiquette d'expédition peut alors être imprimée et apposée sur le paquet (S26).

Abstract: Disclosed is a repeater system having an oscillation
preventing function and an automatic reverse output
disabling function, and a control method thereof, in
which the reverse output of the repeater system is
disabled upon detection of a non-subscriber interval
in the service area or a reverse oscillation so as to
prevent a drop in the capacity of a base station transceiver
system and protect a reception path. The repeater
system includes: a first duplexer coupled to an
external base station transceiver system; a transmitter
for amplifying a signal received from the first
duplexer into a service frequency; a second duplexer
for transmitting the output signal of the transmitter
to a mobile station located in a corresponding service
area in a wireless manner, and receiving a signal from
the mobile station; a receiver for amplifying the signal
received from the second duplexer; and a controller,
coupled to the output signal of the receiver, for
detecting the power level of the receiver, the controller
preventing the output of the receiver being
sent to the first duplexer when the detected power
level is above a first reference value during a first
time period or below a second reference value during a
second time period.

Abstract: Spent filtering agents comprising 1-1000 micron mineral particles consisting mainly of diatomites and perlites can be incorporated into plaster or hydraulic mixtures such as concretes and mortars. Spent kielselguhr-type filtering agents from the food industry, namely the brewing industry, are subjected to thermal treatment before being incorporated into plaster or hydraulic mixtures such as foam concrete or foam mortar. Thermal treatment is carried out at 80-300 degrees C, in order to dry the spent filtering agents and to partially oxidize organic matter. The spent filtering agents can be dried, calcined at 400-800 degrees C, to remove organic matter, and then densified in water before incorporation into plaster or hydraulic mixtures. A suitable plasticizer can be added to the hydraulic mixture. An Independent claim is given for utilization of a foam concrete or foam mortar incorporating the dried or thermally treated spent filtering agent as a backfill or thermal and sound insulation.

IPC: H04L12/56

Abstract: The invention deals with a wireless extension of the
IEEE 1394 bus. Considered is a scenario where two clusters
of 1394 devices are linked to each other by means of a
wireless bridge (9). The devices of one cluster shall
communicate with devices of the other cluster without being
bridge-aware. The wireless bridge, however, provides for a
bus reset isolation. This causes a problem each time a bus
reset occurs in one of the clusters. 
     To solve this problem it is proposed to implement a
buffer memory (22) for self-identification packets in the
1394 interfaces (11) of both boxes of said wireless bridge
(9). In particular these buffer memories (22) shall be
implemented in the physical layer section (21) of the 1394
interfaces (11). With these buffer memories the self-identification
packets of the bus stations in the other
cluster can be collected and they can easily be read out
during the self-configuration phase of the network after a
bus reset when the bus grant is assigned to the box of the
wireless bridge that is also connected to the bus where the
bus reset has occurred. The physical layer section of the
1394 interface transmits artificial self-identification
packets for all bus stations of the other cluster so that
data communication can continue without long delays.

Abstract: The penalties associated with relying on layer-4 to handle packets lost as a
result of a handoff can be reduced by forwarding, in response to a handoff request
from a first base station to a second base station, at least one layer-2 frame of a
layer-3 packet destined to/from the wireless terminal that has been passed down
from layer-3 to layer-2, and so is indicated to have been transmitted at layer-3 even
though not all of the layer-2 frames of the layer-3 packet have actually been
transmitted. In one embodiment of the invention, each of the at least one layer-2
frames may be encapsulated together in a special layer-3 packet that is transferred
from the first base to the second base station in the usual manner of inter-base-station
communication. Advantageously, packets are not lost at layer-4 due to
handoffs. Thus, layer-4 retransmissions are not required, and so delays in the
network are reduced. Furthermore, if only the layer-2 frames that were not
transmitted over the air to the wireless terminal by the first base station are
transferred to the second base station, a savings may be had in use of the air
interface.

Abstract: A method and a device is disclosed for encoding/decoding digital data transmitted through a serial link, particularly of the so-called "8B/10B" type. A full encoded binary word includes 8 data bits and a 2-bit label. The logical state of a center bit triplet of the byte is detected. When all of the bits are in the same logical state, the center bit of the triplet is inverted prior to transmission. Otherwise, the byte is transmitted as is. The label is forced to the logical configuration "10" when there is a bit inversion, and to "01" in the opposite case. Upon decoding, this configuration is tested and the center bit received is selectively inverted as a function of the result of the test. In a preferred variant, the method also includes tests of the label and the triplet after decoding, when there has been a bit inversion in the encoding. The device comprises logical circuits based on inverters and "AND," "OR" and "EXCLUSIVE-OR" logic gates.

Abstract: Copy protection normally included in a video signal to prevent unauthorized copying is dynamically modified, by changing an attribute of the copy protection to be added to or present in the video signal. The copy protection can include any signal that affects playability of an attenuated video signal, for example, by triggering an early or late horizontal or vertical retrace (such as caused by sync narrowing or the checker signals described in U.S. Patent 5,583,936). The attribute change (53) is related to scene content carried by the video signal, so that bright and dark scenes carry different copy protection. The attribute being changed can be, for example a checker's low level that is reduced to below the blanking level when the scene content is darker than normal, and increased to above the blanking level when the scene content is brighter than normal. Alternatively, the attribute being changed can be width of a synchronization pulse normally present in the video signal. The brightness of a scene carried by the video signal can be measured directly (52), or alternatively as the change in attenuation in the synchronization pulse received at the input of a sync separator of a typical VCR or TV set.

Abstract: An organic halogen compound-decomposing catalyst is provided,
which affords excellent decomposing percentages even at low temperatures,
while there is no fear of re-synthesizing dioxines and brominated dioxines. 
     An organic halogen compound-decomposing catalyst is obtained by

amino acid as an organic binder in a solvent, thereby synthesizing an organic
metal precursor containing Pt and/or Pd and Ti in molecules thereof, and heating
the organic metal precursor. This catalyst may be carried on a surface of a clean
side of a ceramic filter. Since active points can be increased by uniformly
dispersing the Pt and/or Pd particles in Ti particles, the catalyst has higher
activity as compared with those obtained by conventional processes, and can
