There is disclosed a communication control method in a wireless communication system having a base station of a mobile communication system, a mobile station and a terminal device connectable to the mobile terminal through short-distance wireless communication. In this wireless communication system, when an audio incoming call is generated during data communication, the mobile station notifies the terminal device of temporal interruption of the data communication with the terminal device. Upon receiving the temporal interruption of the data communication, the terminal device judges that there is an audio incoming interruption instead of a standard procedure in the regular short-distance wireless communication.

A temporary valve and a filtration device can be added to a delivery catheter or guide catheter to improve hemodynamics and provide embolic protection. Both the valve and filter can mount onto the outer diameter of a delivery or guide catheter, which offers several distinct advantages. First, the inner lumen of the delivery or guide catheter remains unaffected, thereby allowing the standard procedure steps to take place without any changes or interruptions, or with minimal changes or interruptions.

A procedure is a template that specifies trigger conditions and what to do when the trigger conditions occur, or do not occur within a specified time. Generally, a procedure corresponds to an order handling strategy used by a trader. A menu of standard procedures exist, and custom procedures are accommodated after being qualified for use in the present system. An interest represents an intent to trade. In contrast, an order is a definite commitment to buy or sell a certain amount. Generally, an institution or professional trader will know that they wish to trade when conditions are right, but will not be quite ready to submit an order. The institution or trader thus represents untapped market liquidity. By representing such liquidity as interests, the liquidity can be more efficient coupled to markets. Typically, a trader creates an interest by selecting a procedure from a menu, then supplying parameters representing what the trader wishes to trade and the conditions that will convert the general interest to a specific order. The interest is sent to a procedure processor. The procedure processor stores interests in an interest book, stores procedures in a procedure book, and when the triggers for the procedures specified in the interests occur, the procedure processor executes the procedures to spawn orders or notifications to block trading systems of willingness to negotiate. Thus, the liquidity represented by the interests is injected into markets.

A system and method for network selection procedures for simultaneous network connectivity through multiple accesses comprises obtaining stored and registered PLMNs, determining whether PLMNs are both stored PLMN for access technology type Ai and registered PLMN, when no PLMNs are both, performing PLMN selection using a standard procedure, when only one PLMN is both, determining whether the PLMN satisfies a condition, and when the PLMN satisfies the condition, attempting to connect to the PLMN, and when more than one PLMN is both, creating a set of PLMNs, selecting one PLMN that satisfies the condition, from the set PLMN, attempting to connect to the selected PLMN, and when attempting to connect fails, removing the selected PLMN from the set, and selecting another PLMN. In one aspect, the PLMN that minimizes changes is selected. In one aspect, the PLMN that provides access to a larger number of access technologies is selected.

As the demand for higher quality and higher resolution optical systems has become prevalent, both designers and metrology scientists demand mass production test stations for optical elements. Consequently, this technology is expected to be standard procedure. Prior art's slow MTF measurement technique is expensive and inadequate for mass production. Current proposed art will solve this and other important drawbacks by simultaneously testing multiple cameras. The proposed parallel testing method will be fast and accurate while meeting the market requirements and fulfill the growing need.

This novel art will enable measuring MTF and other optical parameters in parallel formation within one test station.

The Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) is an important aid which is necessary for objective evaluation of the image-forming capability of optical systems. Not only that the MTF provides a means of expressing the imaging quality of optical systems objectively and quantitatively, but it can be calculated from the lens design data. Moreover, other parameters which are also very important, such as field of view, focal length and similar parameters can be measured by the proposed art.

This technology allows optical and systems designers to predict and test reliably the performance of the optical systems. The manufacturers can compare the image quality of the camera and lenses with the design expectations.

Thus a method and apparatus are disclosed for fast parallel testing of multiple lenses or cameras.

A unique electro optical design will be implemented to shift multiple optical elements in a synchronized matter while maintaining accuracy over a wide field of view. The movement is angular over a wide angle and in two perpendicular directions—pitch and yaw. By design, each said optical element will perform its angular movement around the lens under test from remote. The center of rotation will be the central point of each lens input aperture. The apparatus is suitable for testing both camera and lenses simultaneously. The apparatus will preferably test lenses or cameras directly on the production floor.

An efficient method for finding all the possible corrections of a bust of length b and e random errors consists of finding a polynomial whose roots are the candidate location for l- the location of the beginning of the burst-thus avoiding the search over all possible values of l (it is assumed that the burst is non-trivial, i.e., at least one of its errors has a non-zero value). In order to reduce the number of spurious solutions, it is assumed that the number of syndromes is t=2e+b+s, where s is at least 2. The larger the value of s the less likely it is that the algorithm will generate "spurious" solutions. Once the location of the burst is known, standard procedures are used to determine the magnitudes of the burst errors and the location and magnitude of the random errors.

For each tested specimen of biological fluid, a control solid phase of physical sorption is used, and the number of natural autoantibodies is determined with the use of a calibration curve which is plotted using monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies to antigen.

A method of determining optical constants n and k for a film on a substrate is described. Optical measurements are preferably performed with an integrated optical measurement system comprising a reflectometer, spectral ellipsometer, and broadband spectrometer such as an Opti-Probe series tool from Therma-Wave. A beam profile reflectometer is employed to first determine the thickness of said film from a best fit of modeling data to experimental data. The thickness data is combined with the ellipsometer and spectrometer measurements to produce an experimental data output which is fitted with modeled information to determine a best fit of the data. Constants n and k are derived from the best fit of data. The method provides a higher accuracy for n and k values than by standard procedures which calculate n, k, and t simultaneously. The method may also be applied to bilayer or multi-layer film stacks.

Alternate window optimization procedures and/or LSP interpolation factor optimization procedures are used to improve the ITU-T G.729 speech coding standard (the “Standard”) by replacing the window used by the Standard with an optimized window and/or replacing the LSP interpolation factor used by the standard with an optimized LSP interpolation factor. Optimized windows created using the alternate window optimization procedure and/or optimized LSP interpolation factors created using the LSP interpolation factor optimization procedure yield improvements in the objective quality of synthesized speech produced by the Standard. In many cases, improvements are obtained using shorter windows, which results in reduced computational cost and/or smaller future buffering requirements, which results in lowered coding delay. The improved Standard, procedures, and optimized windows and LSP interpolation factors can all be implemented as computer readable software code and in optimization devices.
