摘要:
A computer implemented process which utilizes actual received signal level data gathered from closely spaced locations covering an entire CDMA system to calculate interference levels at each location, determines those base stations which most probably communicate with a mobile unit at each particular location, compiles a list of neighbor base stations for each base station at each location throughout the system, and determines the transmit power necessary for each base station to communicate with a mobile unit at each location, calculates interference levels at each base station, and determines the transmit power necessary for a mobile unit at each location to communicate with each base station which most probably communicates with a mobile unit at that particular location.

The CO concentration in the H.sub.2 feed stream to a PEM fuel cell stack is monitored by measuring current and/or voltage behavior patterns from a PEM-probe communicating with the reformate feed stream. Pattern recognition software may be used to compare the current and voltage patterns from the PEM-probe to current and voltage telltale outputs determined from a reference cell similar to the PEM-probe and operated under controlled conditions over a wide range of CO concentrations in the H.sub.2 fuel stream. The PEM-probe is intermittently purged of any CO build-up on the anode catalyst (e.g., by (1) flushing the anode with air, (2) short circuiting the PEM-probe, or (3) reverse biasing the PEM-probe) to keep the PEM-probe at peak performance levels.

The CO concentration in the H.sub.2 feed stream to a PEM fuel cell stack is monitored by measuring current and/or voltage behavior patterns from a PEM-probe communicating with the reformate feed stream. Pattern recognition software may be used to compare the current and voltage patterns from the PEM-probe to current and voltage telltale outputs determined from a reference cell similar to the PEM-probe and operated under controlled conditions over a wide range of CO concentrations in the H.sub.2 fuel stream. A CO sensor includes the PEM-probe, an electrical discharge circuit for discharging the PEM-probe to monitor the CO concentration, and an electrical purging circuit to intermittently raise the anode potential of the PEM-probe's anode to at least about 0.8 V (RHE) to electrochemically oxidize any CO adsorbed on the probe's anode catalyst.

A sensor for hydrogen is disclosed comprising an electrically insulating substrate carrying a thin amorphous film of co-deposited nickel and zirconium and an overlying film of palladium wherein during the operation of the sensor, hydrogen in a sample gas is dissociated on the palladium film and diffuses into the nickel-zirconium film to change its electrical resistance in proportion to the amount of hydrogen in the sample to be analyzed.

An access point operates in an 802.11 wireless communication network communicating with a client station, and includes a smart antenna for generating directional antenna beams and an omni-directional antenna beam. An antenna steering algorithm scans the directional antenna beams and the omni-directional antenna beam for receiving signals from the client station. The signals received via each scanned antenna beam are measured, and one of the antenna beams is selected based upon the measuring for communicating with the client station. The selected antenna beam is preferably a directional antenna beam. Once the directional antenna beam has been selected, there are several usage rules for exchanging data with the client station. The usage rules are directed to an active state of the access point, which includes a data transmission mode and a data reception mode.

摘要:
A method of operating a H2—O2 fuel cell fueled by hydrogen-rich fuel stream containing CO. The CO content is reduced to acceptable levels by injecting oxygen into the fuel gas stream. The amount of oxygen injected is controlled in relation to the CO content of the fuel gas, by a control strategy that involves (a) determining the CO content of the fuel stream at a first injection rate, (b) increasing the O2 injection rate, (c) determining the CO content of the stream at the higher injection rate, (d) further increasing the O2 injection rate if the second measured CO content is lower than the first measured CO content or reducing the O2 injection rate if the second measured CO content is greater than the first measured CO content, and (e) repeating steps a-d as needed to optimize CO consumption and minimize H2 consumption.
