Abstract: A highly accurate voltage reference and temperature sensor circuit requires only several low-cost components in addition to a general-purpose microcontroller with an analog-to-digital converter. Unlike known circuits, the circuit disclosed does not rely on matching between a pair of semiconductor devices, as only a single semiconductor junction is used. All of the signal processing may be performed digitally.

Abstract: A method for generating continuous resource allocation signaling comprises: a sender determines a value of the total number of resource blocks NRB in a system according to the total resource number in the system and determines, according to the amount and location of the total resources occupied by the continuous resources allocated to the target user equipment, the number of continuous resource blocks allocated to the user equipment LCRBs and the value of the index number of the starting resource block RBstart in the continuous resource blocks allocated to the user equipment; the sender compares LCRBs?1 with ?NRB/2? to compute the value RIV of the resource allocation signaling of the user equipment; if the LCRBs?1 is greater than the ?NRB/2?, then the RIV is NRB(NRB?LCRBs+1)+(NRB?1?RBstart); else the RIV is NRB(LCRBs?1)+RBstart; and the resource allocation signaling of the target user equipment is generated according to RIV and transmitted.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and device for the bias control of an MZ modulator. The method comprises: during startup of an MZ modulator, inputting a linearly changing bias control voltage to the bias electrode of the MZ modulator and obtaining the output optical power of the MZ modulator so as to determine a bias control voltage corresponding to a preset operating point; then enabling a communication electrical signal to be input to the radio frequency electrode of the MZ modulator, carrying out an amplitude modulation on the communication electrical signal by a low-frequency sinusoidal pilot signal, and inputting the determined bias control voltage to the bias electrode simultaneously; and sampling the output optical signals of the MZ modulator, comparing the sampled optical signal with the pilot signal, and adjusting the bias control voltage input to the bias electrode according to the result of the comparison.

Abstract: An inverter application comprises at least one apparatus fed by an inverter (10). The determining of insulation defects is effected by way of a differential voltage of part voltages (U, U?) of an intermediate circuit (7) or the ratio of one of these part voltages (U, U?) to the total voltage of an intermediate circuit, and by way of an operating condition of the inverter (10). The monitoring of the insulation is carried out only with the means (1a, 1b, 1c, 1a?, 1b?, 1c?, 5, 5?) which are present in the inverter (10) in any case. The operating condition is set as a particular switch position in the inverter (10) by an insulation monitoring system. Alternatively, the operating condition is, while the inverter is on-line or in operation, transferred from the inverter control (9) to an insulation monitoring system for improving the quality of the monitoring.

Abstract: This invention provides a method and a system for transmitting an encrypted control message based on the mobile multimedia broadcast. The said method includes: encapsulating the media data of the program and the encrypted control message in the multiplex sub-frames of the multiplex frame; and setting the encrypted control message identifier in the header of multiplex sub-frames for indicating whether the encrypted control message is included in the multiplex sub-frames. The mobile multimedia system sends the media data and the encrypted control message out through the multiplex frame.

Abstract: A method for implementing the subscriber port positioning by broadband access equipments, includes: when the subscriber initiates an access request, the multi-port terminal equipment captures the access request message, adds the subscriber basic information into the access request message, and transmits it to the office equipment; the single-port terminal equipment forwards the access request message to the office equipment directly; the office equipment captures the access request message, adds the terminal basic information into the access request message and forwards it to the broadband access server; for the multi-port terminal equipment, the terminal basic information and the subscriber basic information comprises the subscriber port positioning information; for the single-port terminal equipment, the terminal basic information is taken as the subscriber port positioning information; after the broadband access server receives the access request message, it extracts the subscriber port positioning informa

Abstract: Disclosed is a system to extract water moisture from the atmosphere, highly purify and condition the extracted water, and provide beverages for human consumption. In one embodiment, the device collects water-vapor condensation from filtered intake air, and then subjects the condensate to a series of purification filters and to a sterilization process in order to produce drinking water. The system may then use the water produced to provide carbonated drinks, flavored drinks, coffee drinks, or ice. The system may also play music and charge a portable electronic device. The disclosed system may incorporate the variations in different combinations.

Abstract: A system for the broadcast of alert messages to selected groups of recipients and their communications devices of a plurality of different types and communicating through a plurality of different communications means. Recipient profiles or characteristics are received variously from databases, directories, and communications nodes accessible by the system. These sources are queried for the identification of selectable groups which are then presented to a dispatcher for choosing the recipients. The alert message is then provided to delivery means which employ a plurality of included means each of which is particularly configured to communicate the alert message to a corresponding target device type. A response handler module then receives responses from the target devices for later reporting.

Abstract: An implementing method for removing duplication protection for multimedia messaging service interworking forwarding message and multimedia messaging service interworking gateway. The method determines whether to return response message according to the different value of the acknowledgement request field of the request signaling. Using the SMTP-interactive-status code as a criterion, when the acknowledgement request field is set to be “NO”, requesting not to return the response message, and when the acknowledgement request field is set to be “YES”, requesting to return the response message. Determine whether the forwarding is successful by determining whether the SMTP-sending-status code returned by the response signaling is received according to the replying status of the response signaling.
