20080290547 | Methods of forming muffler preforms - Methods of forming compressed preform products formed from continuous fibers substantially evenly coated with a thermoplastic sizing composition are provided. Applying a thermoplastic sizing composition to continuous fibers during the formation of the fibers enables a preform to be formed without applying any additional sizing or binder compositions at later stages of the manufacturing of the preform. The thermoplastic sizing composition includes a thermoplastic material, and, optionally a silane coupling agent. The thermoplastic material in the thermoplastic sizing composition includes chemicals and/or compounds that are thermoplastic or possess thermoplastic properties. One or more preforms may be randomly inserted to a muffler cavity. Upon the application of heat, the preforms decompress and fill the cavity with fibrous material. Due to the ability to decompress the compressed preform product, the preform product can have a shape that is independent of the shape of the muffler cavity. | 11-27-2008 |

20080200124 | RADIO COEXISTENCE MECHANISM FOR VARIABLE DATA RATE RADIO LINKS - A device has a radio transmitter for a first radio link such as a Bluetooth link, having a coexistence controller arranged to communicate with a co-located other radio transmitter for another radio link, to enable both radio links to use potentially conflicting transmission frequencies. A link monitor monitors the first radio link, according to an output from the coexistence controller. By making the link monitor dependent on the coexistence controller, it can distinguish between transmission losses caused by the coexistence interface, and those caused by other effects, to reduce the risk of a data rate controller unnecessarily reducing a transmission rate if transmission losses caused by the coexistence control are misinterpreted as a drop in link quality. | 08-21-2008 |
20080270622 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OPTIMIZING POWER CONSUMPTION AND REDUCING MIPS REQUIREMENTS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - The present invention discloses a system and a methodology for enhancing performance during wireless communications by reducing system latency, MIPS requirements and power consumption. The present invention discloses a system and method of wireless data communication in which part of upper layer stack processing is performed on a controller to relieve a host processor of some data intensive operations. After the initial connection establishment phase in which the controller retrieves certain information required for data transmission and stores the same locally, the data source provides data directly to the controller without routing the data through the host. The host is relieved of the data processing that needs to be done while the data is being transferred. Hence, the overall latency of the system is improved because of the optimal routing of data traffic. The host can even go to lower power modes while the controller is performing the data operations on behalf of the upper layer stack thereby saving power consumption of the overall system. | 10-30-2008 |
