  • Patent number: 11656061
    Abstract: A bomb disposal suit includes a jacket, trousers, and a back protector connected between the jacket and the trousers. The back protector includes a body of impact resistant material having a plenum with an intake opening to receive forced air and with outlet openings to direct forced air out of the plenum. A fan forces air into the intake opening. The back protector can transmit load vertically from the jacket to the trousers, for example, via a back plate.

  • Patent number: 8320373
    Abstract: A packet-based processing system suitable for various applications, such as for a base station or a terminal in a wireless communication system, is described. The packet-based processing system may include multiple processing modules and at least one transport module. The processing modules may send packets to one another via a common packet interface and may operate asynchronously. The transport module(s) may forward the packets sent by the processing modules and may operate asynchronously with respect to the processing modules. Each processing module may include a network interface, at least one buffer, a packet parser, a packet builder, and at least one processing unit. Each processing module may support at least one service. Each packet may include a header and a payload. The header may include a source service address for a source service sending the packet and a destination service address for a recipient service receiving the packet.

  • Patent number: 7593582
    Abstract: Apparatus, systems and methods for using the selection of an appropriate parameter at decompression are disclosed. In particular, when adaptive block size discrete cosine transform compression is used to compress data, different combinations of sub-blocks can be generated. To decompress the different combinations of sub-blocks, the appropriate parameter is selected based on block size assignment information and the address of data in the data block.

  • Patent number: 6912070
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for minimizing the code length of an input address for at least one for variable length encoded data is claimed. A block of variable length encoded data is read. The block of variable length encoded data is then converted into sub-optimall encoded data. The variable length encoded data is defined in having a prefix portion and a suffix portion. The prefix portion of the variable length encoded data is used to signify the look-up table. The suffix portion of the variable length encoded data is used as an input address for the look-up table.
