20090310542 | MECHANISM FOR MAXIMIZING UPLINK BANDWIDTH BY OVERLAPPING CONTROL REGIONS IN WIMAX SYSTEMS - A method and system for allocating a particular uplink control region to both HARQ ACKCH and CQICH in order to maximize uplink bandwidth for data transfer in a communication network. A control region scheduling (CRS) utility assigns a higher priority to HARQ ACKCH relative to CQICH. When both HARQ ACKCH and CQICH are to be allocated for a subscriber in the same region in the same frame, HARQ ACKCH is allocated in the region while CQICH is rejected. As the substitute to the rejected CQICH, the CRS utility may use current uplink channel quality information in combination with the corresponding HARQ ACK transmission to estimate the downlink channel quality information for the subscriber. Upon receiving the HARQ ACK information, the CRS utility updates the subscriber(s) uplink channel quality information. The CRS utility also provides a configurable option of activating or de-activating the sharing of the uplink control region. | 12-17-2009 |

In one embodiment, a request for an allocation of bandwidth is received from each of multiple mobile stations. The requests include requests for a bandwidth allocation of a first size range and requests for a bandwidth allocation of a second size range, wherein each request of the second size range requests more bandwidth than any request of the first size range. Bandwidth is allocated in a UL data packet field to the requests in order of priority, and when the allocated bandwidth does not fill the UL data packet field and a request of the second size range remains unallocated, an allocation of bandwidth to an unallocated request of the second size range is substituted for an allocation of bandwidth to a request of the first size range. | 12-02-2010 |

20090231925 | READ REFERENCE TECHNIQUE WITH CURRENT DEGRADATION PROTECTION - A set of reference cells is used for sensing the data values stored at bit cells of a memory device. In response to an event, the reference cell providing the highest output of the set is selected as the reference cell to be used for subsequent memory access operations.

20100309947 | METHOD AND ASSEMBLY FOR DETERMINING THE TEMPERATURE OF A TEST SENSOR - Methods and systems accurately determine an analyte concentration in a fluid sample. In an example embodiment, a receiving port receives a test sensor. The test sensor includes a fluid-receiving area for receiving a fluid sample. The fluid-receiving area contains a reagent that produces a measurable reaction with an analyte in the fluid sample. The test sensor has a test-sensor temperature and the reagent has a reagent temperature. A measurement system measures the reaction between the reagent and the analyte. A temperature-measuring system measures the test sensor temperature when the test sensor is received into the receiving port. A concentration of the analyte in the fluid sample is determined according to the measurement of the reaction and the measurement of the test sensor temperature. A diagnostic system determines an accuracy of the temperature-measuring system. The calculation of the analyte concentration may be adjusted according to the accuracy of temperature-measuring system. | 12-09-2010 |

20130018641 | Method For Simulating Fractional Multi-Phase/Multi-Component Flow Through Porous Media - A method for computing or estimating fractional, multi-phase/multi-component flow through a porous medium employing a 3D digital representation of a porous medium and a computational fluid dynamics method to calculate flow rates, pressures, saturations, internal velocity vectors and other flow parameters is described. The method employs a unique method of introducing non-wetting and wetting fluids into the pores at the inlet face of the 3D digital representation of a porous medium and a novel process control application to achieve quasi-steady state flow at low inlet concentrations of non-wetting fluid. In addition, the method of the present invention reduces the time required to simulate to complete the fluid dynamic calculations. The resulting values of flow of non-wetting fluid, wetting fluid, saturation, and other parameters are used to generate plots of relative permeability imbibition and drainage curves. Computerized systems and programs for performing the method are also provided. | 01-17-2013 |
