摘要:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for generating a gas. One or more liquid permeable pouches each define a cavity that contains a solid anhydrous reactant, such as a chemical hydride. A reaction chamber made of a heat, chemical and/or pressure resistant material receives the one or more pouches from a pouch feeder that transfers the one or more pouches into the reaction chamber successively at a feed rate. One or more liquid sources inject a liquid reactant into the reaction chamber so that the liquid reactant contacts a portion of the one or more pouches. The one or more liquid sources inject the liquid reactant at an injection rate that corresponds to the feed rate. A gas outlet releases a gas, such as hydrogen, oxygen, ammonia, borazine, nitrogen, or a hydrocarbon, that is produced by a reaction between the solid reactant and the liquid reactant.

In an exemplary embodiment, a communication system is configured to engage in a plurality of ranging processes, and a pool of ranging codes is available to client devices for requesting the ranging processes. The pool is divided into groups of ranging codes, and each group includes ranging codes allocated for requesting a particular ranging process. The system comprises (a) a receiver that is configured to receive a plurality of requests from one or more client devices, wherein each request comprises a ranging code that is allocated for requesting a particular ranging process and (b) program code stored in data storage and executable by a processor to (i) use the ranging codes from the requests to determine a quantity of requests received, respectively, for each ranging process and (ii) based on the determined quantity of received requests for at least one ranging process, adjust the allocation of the ranging codes.

A circuit and method for reducing voltage error when charging and discharging a storage capacitor (44) through a transmission gate (43). The storage capacitor (44) stores or holds a voltage coupled through the transmission gate (43) when the transmission gate (43) is disabled. The circuit comprises a clock generation circuit (47) providing complementary clock signals for enabling and disabling the transmission gate (43) and a charge negating transmission gate (46). The clock generation circuit (47) provides the complementary clock signals simultaneously to the transmission gates (43, 46). Alternate paths for dissipating channel charge of the transistors which comprise the transmission gate (43) are not formed by providing the complementary clock signals simultaneously. The channel charge is then canceled by the charge negating transmission gate (46) reducing voltage error on the storage capacitor (44).

Disclosed herein is a method and system for power management in a subscriber station. The method involves (a) during a communication session between a subscriber station and an access network, determining a packet inter-arrival time for data received from the access network; (b) determining whether the packet inter-arrival time indicates that the communication session is in a high-activity state or, in the alternative, indicates that the communication session is in a low-activity state; (c) if the packet inter-arrival time indicates that the communication session is in the low-activity state, then selecting a first power-saving mode for use by the subscriber station; and (d) if the packet inter-arrival time indicates that the communication session is in the high.

A system and methodology for network planning in which a software based tool provides network engineers with the capability to more precisely plan for traffic loading within the network on a cell site by cell site basis. Thus for each cell site, variations in geographic location, device mix, historical usage patterns and other factors are taken into account to allow for more accurate network planning and for more efficient use of capital. Cell sites with a higher traffic profile based upon historic device mix and usage patterns will be associated with lower OSF values thus enhancing the user experience for a device user in communication with that cell site. On the other hand, for cell sites with a lesser traffic profile, a higher OSF value is ascribed thus allowing for capital to be deployed elsewhere while still maintaining a positive user experience for users relying on that cell site.

Disclosed herein is a method and system for WiMAX ranging using OVSF ranging codes. Specifically, in an exemplary embodiment, a WiMAX communication system that is configured to provide service at a plurality of quality of service (QoS) levels, may be configured to (a) broadcast a QoS level message in a downlink sub-frame, wherein the QoS level message comprises one or more spreading factor codes, and wherein each spreading factor code indicates a spreading factor for a particular QoS level, (b) receive a ranging request from a device, wherein the ranging request comprises an orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) code, wherein the OVSF code was selected according to the one or more spreading factor codes, (c) determine a spreading factor of the OVSF code in the received ranging request, and (d) use the spreading factor as a basis for selecting a QoS level at which to provide service to the device.
