Dynamic scheduling for packet data network

A method for dynamic division of the radio capacity in a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) system between different packet radio services. Each packet radio service is composed of packets with the same or different priority. Several MSs can share a time slot. Information regarding to the interference for each MS is obtained by a request from a mobile station (MS) or through a traffic measurement at the base transceiver station. This information, along with the QoS contract, is used as criteria in allocating more time slots to packet radio service. A framework of dynamic scheduling for mobile communication (DSMC) comprising a Channel Codec Unit (CCU) and a Packet Control Unit (PCU) determines the service rate upon the required QoS of a user and the interference level.

Kinesthetic training system with composite feedback

An apparatus for training a subject to perform a specified physical activity is based on the presence of two or more kinesthetic body sensors, whether mounted on the body or separately from the body, that deliver signals to a processing system that, in turn, delivers a single output signal. This signal drives a display that delivers feedback to the subject. Multiple body sensor output signals may be combined in accordance with a predetermined algorithm to produce a single composite signal. This combining may be as simple as direct addition, or may include the combination of weighted values of the individual comparison signals. An operator may adjust the weighting values to be applied to the respective comparison signals, and may do so while the apparatus is in use. Alternately while the apparatus is in use, a proportional signal from one body sensor may drive the display, subject to suppression of such signal if the output from any number of other body sensors does not achieve preselected threshold values.

Method for controlling an automated friction clutch

A method of controlling an automated friction clutch in a drivetrain of a motor vehicle between a drive motor and a manual transmission. During clutch actuation, at least one operating parameter of the friction clutch is detected by a sensor and from variation of the operating parameter at least one adaptation parameter is derived for correcting a control parameter of the associated clutch control element. To obtain information about variation of the clutch release force and to improve the control of an associated clutch control element, the friction clutch is fully disengaged with constant control or actuation of the clutch control element. During the disengagement process, the release travel path is determined as a function of release time, and from the time variation of the release travel path, a characteristic value is determined which is used to determine an adaptation parameter for correcting the control parameter of the clutch control element.
