Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé destiné à obtenir des données géométriques relatives à la surface interne du canal auditif et/ou de l'oreille. Pour ce faire, une sonde comportant une partie distale émettrice de lumière est insérée dans le canal auditif. Le procédé de l'invention consiste, en outre: - à diriger la lumière d'une partie distale d'une sonde de manière à éliminer au moins un point de la surface circonférentielle interne de l'oreille et/ou du canal auditif, - à recevoir la lumière réfléchie par la surface éclairée, et à diriger cette lumière vers au moins un élément photosensible afin de produire une sortie, - à analyser cette sortie afin de déterminer la distance entre la sonde et la surface interne de l'oreille et/ou du canal auditif au niveau de certains points de la circonférence. L'invention concerne aussi un appareil destiné à obtenir des données géométriques relatives à la surface interne de l'oreille et du canal auditif.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of arbitrating network resource allocation request to reallocate Packet-Switched (PC) dedicated territory as circuit-switched (CS) territory usable for CS connections within a telecommunications network. The extent of any guaranteed bit-rate (GBR) connections within the requested reallocation region of the packet-switched (PS) dedicated territory is determined. Where possible, GBR connections are reallocated within the PS dedicated territory to outside the requested reallocation region. In the event some or all of the requested reallocation region adjacent CS territory is free, it is reallocated as CS territory.

Abstract: A method of enabling soft handoff between base stations using different signaling frame formats allows soft handoff from an origination base station supporting a lower Protocol Data Unit revision format to an alternative base station supporting a higher Protocol Data Unit revision format, as well as soft handoff between an origination base station supporting a higher Protocol Data Unit revision format to an alternative base station supporting a lower Protocol Data Unit revision format. The base station using the higher Protocol Data Unit revision format downgrades to the lower Protocol Data Unit revision format for the duration of soft handoff. As all base stations use the same Protocol Data Unit revision format during soft handoff, the signals from all of the receive paths can be combined by a mobile station.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'un canal résistant à la corrosion dans une voie humide d'un dispositif en silicium, ledit procédé permettant à ce dispositif d'être utilisé avec des composés corrosifs tels que le fluor. Une voie humide d'un dispositif MEMS est recouverte soit (1) d'un composé organique résistant à une attaque par du fluor atomique, soit (2) d'une matière pouvant subir une passivation par du fluor atomique. Le dispositif est ensuite exposé à un gaz qui se décompose en composés de fluor actif lorsqu'il est activé par une décharge de plasma. Ce gaz peut être par exemple du CF4, qui est un gaz inerte qui est plus facile et plus sûr à mettre en oeuvre que des gaz volatils du type ClF3. Ce gaz permet d'effectuer une passivation de la matière (le cas échéant) et il corrode tout silicium exposé. Le dispositif est vérifié de manière que toute corrosion inacceptable de la voie humide entraîne une défaillance du dispositif. Si le dispositif fonctionne correctement, la voie humide est estimée être résistante à la corrosion par le fluor ou d'autres composés corrosifs suivant le cas.
