  • Patent number: 8547249
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for avoiding a collision between a vehicle and another traffic participant. According to the inventive method, a cell phone carried by the traffic participant sends a signal including a position of the traffic participant. A processing unit processes the signal including the position of the traffic participant for a position or evaluation history. The processing unit determines an estimation of a future position of the traffic participant on the basis of the position or evaluation history. The processing unit evaluates a likelihood of a collision between the vehicle and the traffic participant on the basis of the estimated future position of the traffic participant and an estimation of a future position of the vehicle. An acceleration of the traffic participant is sensed by an acceleration sensor of the cell phone.

  • Patent number: 6023623
    Abstract: A process for dynamic channel allocation in mobile radio networks, wherein priorities which are increased or decreased in dependence on interference occurring in the channel concerned are established for the individual channels. When the propagation conditions are satisfactory, channels with low priority can be allocated. The mean of values dependent on the extent of interference can be formed in order to increase and decrease the priority. In addition, various priority lists can be established for various interference or load situations, or both.

  • Patent number: 4027490
    Abstract: A self-sinking, axial passage foundation pile and method are provided. The pile is preformed with an axial bore which is capable of accommodating a rotatable shaft. At one end of the pile a drill bit is affixed to the shaft and at the other end a driving means is attached to the shaft in order to rotate the drill bit. In this configuration the rotational drilling torques are transmitted by the shaft without importing torque to the pile. Accordingly, the pile need not be specially reinforced to accommodate the bore hole drilling torques. Furthermore, the invention encompasses the novel method for installing the unique pile disclosed.
