20130062207 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISPOSAL OF BRINE SOLUTION - A reverse electrodialyzer has a plurality of concentrated compartments and diluted compartments arranged alternatively. The concentrated compartments and the diluted compartments are formed by successive alternatively arranged oppositely charged ion exchange membranes between two electrodes. A brine solution is fed into the concentrated compartments, and a diluted solution is into the diluted compartments, the salinity of the diluted solution being lower than the salinity of the brine solution. Ions from the brine solution in the concentrated compartments pass through the membranes to the diluted solution in the diluted compartments forming a diluted brine solution in the concentrated compartments. The brine solution is extracted from the concentrated compartments for disposal. An electrical energy is produced due to the concentration difference of the brine solution and the diluted solution. | 03-14-2013 |
20130288142 | ELECTRODIALYSIS SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENERGY GENERATION AND WASTE TREATMENT - Reverse electrodialysis (RED) may be used to neutralize acid and caustic effluent waste streams, such as in the semiconductor industry. Power may be generated while waste streams are treated by converting chemical energy into electric energy. A bipolar membrane may be integrated into the RED system. Alternatively, an anion exchange membrane and a cation exchange membrane may be overlapped and used in place of a bipolar membrane. A cell pair with four membranes and four chambers, without a bipolar membrane, may also be implemented. | 10-31-2013 |

20090143016 | MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, INTERFERENCE OF NEIGHBORHOOD SUPPRESSION METHOD AND BASE STATION IN THE SYSTEM - A mobile communication system, a neighboring cell interference suppression method and a base station in the mobile communication are disclosed. When a NodeB establishes a non-serving radio link for a UE, only a control plane connection is established, and contribution of the UE to uplink load in a cell is estimated by means of an established uplink channel so that contribution of UEs in neighboring cells to the uplink load becomes predictable, and the transmit power of the UE can be controlled by means of an established downlink channel based on the estimation result, and thereby interference from the neighboring cells to which the overlap area belongs can be suppressed effectively, and the system stability and accuracy in fast dispatching by the NodeB can be improved. If the non-serving radio link becomes a serving radio link during the handover, a channel for carrying data is added to the radio link. | 06-04-2009 |
20100120421 | METHOD, SYSTEM, BASE STATION, AND USER EQUIPMENT FOR MACRO DIVERSITY COMBINING - A method and a system for implementing MDC, a base station, and a UE are provided herein. The method includes: a non-serving cell base station determines whether current services of a UE include a service whose feature meets the preset condition according to the features of the current services of the UE, and processes the service whose feature meets the preset condition as a service that needs MDC if such a service exists. Through the technical solution under the present invention, the MDC is implemented more flexibly according to the features of the current services of the UE to optimize the system performance. | 05-13-2010 |
20100189067 | Method, System and Equipment for Implementing Macro Diversity Combining - A method, system, base station, network node, and user equipment for implementing macro diversity combining (MDC) are disclosed. In the method, a base station judges whether user equipment service data meets a condition for allocating demodulation resources. The base station allocates demodulation resources for service data meeting the condition, demodulates the service data and forwards the demodulated service data to a network node for implementing MDC. | 07-29-2010 |
