Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090103438Grant Based Adaptive Media Access Control Scheduling - Methods and Apparatus are disclosed for grant based adaptive media access control scheduling. According to an embodiment, a method for MAC scheduling of a plurality of data flows for downlink transmission of data bytes is disclosed. The method enables determining a data flow to be scheduled amongst the plurality of data flows based at least in part on one or more Quality of Service (QoS) parameters. The method further enables computing number of data bytes that are associated with the data flow that is determined to be scheduled. Subsequently, the computed number of data bytes is scheduled for transmission. Further, a value is stored in a grant counter that is associated with the data flow that is determined to be scheduled. Based on the scheduling the value stored in the grant counter is modified.04-23-2009

20100209571AERATED FROZEN PRODUCTS - An aerated frozen confection having reduced ice crystal growth after heat shock, and being prepared from a mixture of ingredients suitable for forming the confection and at least one emulsifier for reducing ice crystal growth after heat shock. Advantageously, the emulsifier facilitates formation and stabilization of fat alpha crystals, the confection having an overrun of about 20% to about 250%, uniformly distributed small air cells having an average size of less than about 50 microns, ice crystals having a size of 30 microns or less after heat shock, and a smooth texture.08-19-2010

20090108563Method and apparatus for aligning a trailer hitch - The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for assisting a driver of a towing vehicle to reverse the vehicle into alignment and proximity with a trailer, so that the towing vehicle and the trailer can be easily hitched together. The invention includes a detachable alignment system with a signal device to show a stop point via side mirrors to the driver while he is reversing the vehicle toward the trailer. The invention includes two complementary units respectively releasably attached to the vehicle and trailer, each unit having equal-length transverse support beams that respectively extend beyond the sides of the vehicle and trailer and that have visible markers depending from their distal ends, whereby the markers are visible to the driver via the side view mirrors. Being of equal length, the distal ends of support beams on either side of the vehicle and trailer permit the end markers to visually line up or come together as viewed by the driver through the side view mirrors when a tow ball on the vehicle and a trailer hitch on the trailer are accurately lined up for a positive connection. The markers permit the driver to align the vehicle unit to the trailer unit while reversing the vehicle, and therefore align the tow ball to the trailer hitch as those units are mounted to these parts specifically and respectively. A trigger switch on the trailer unit may be deployed to activate a signal device, for example a light, when in contact with the tow ball.04-30-2009

20100122370GENETIC LOCI ASSOCIATED WITH CELL WALL DIGESTIBILITY IN MAIZE - The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying maize plants that have increased cell wall digestibility. The methods use molecular markers to identify and select plants with increased cell wall digestibility or to identify and counter-select plants with decreased cell wall digestibility. Maize plants generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.05-13-2010

20110234410Solar Powered Animal Containment/Repellent System - Described is an animal containment/repellant system for containing and animal within or repelling an animal from a designated area and for optimizing an integral power source of the system. More specifically, the animal containment/repellant system supplements the operating power provided by its internal power source with power derived from solar energy and charges its power source using the derived power. Additionally, the animal containment/repellant system employs a power conservation scheme to minimize the use of its internal power source.09-29-2011
