Abstract: A blender blade assembly having a first blade with two first blade arms extending from a centre plane in opposite directions, wherein each blade arm has a planar base section extending perpendicularly from the centre plane, wherein the base section merges at its outer end into a wing section angled upwards from the base section, and wherein the blade assembly further includes a second blade with two second blade arms, wherein each second blade arm have a curve shaped blade.

Abstract: In third generation mobile communications networks, e.g. CDMA systems, a mobile station intending to access a base station transmits a request for access to a base station and waits for a response in the form of an indicator signal. Both detecting a signal as an acknowledgement message without one being sent from the base station and failing to detect such an acknowledgement message can give rise to noise and interference in the whole cell. The invention provides a method and a user equipment for determining the received signal strength in an access slot in a downlink channel and for asserting whether detection of an indicator signal from the base station in the access slot in the downlink channel is reliable. Hereby, a more secure reception of indicator signals can be obtained, which leads to reduced interference and noise in the whole cell.

Abstract: Locations of path rays in a multi-path channel receiver having multiple time references are detected, e.g., when the receiver switches time references. Locations of received path rays are searched for and determined. The locations are tracked for a predetermined amount of time. If the locations are lost after a predetermined amount of time, a new search for the locations of the received path rays is initiated. The searching may include determining a probable location of a most significant path ray, shifting the location within a predetermined interval, analyzing each shifted location to determine whether the shifted location corresponds to the actual location of the received path ray, and depending on the analysis results, completing the search or determining a probable location of a next most significant ray. The analysis may be performed by correlating each shifted location with a pilot sequence and determining if the correlation results exceed a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A method for synchronizing a local reference frequency in a mobile station includes measuring a current ambient condition of the mobile station and using stored data indicating variance of the local reference frequency with known ambient conditions to determine the method by which the local reference frequency is synchronized.
