Handover and Uplink Power Control Performance in the 3.84 Mcps TDD mode of UTRA Network

In this article we consider the performance of the 3.84 Mcpstime-division duplex (TDD) mode of UTRA (Universal TerrestrialRadio Access) network. We emphasize two of the radio resourcemanagement algorithms, handover and uplink power control, whoserole in the overall system performance is studied extensively.First, a handover algorithm used in WCDMA (Wideband Code DivisionMultiple Access) standard is considered in a TDD-mode operation.This gives rise to a careful setting of different handoverparameters, and the evaluation of the effects to the systemperformance. Secondly, the specified uplink power controlalgorithm is considered. Since it is based on several user-mademeasurements which may involve both random and systematic errors acareful study about the suitability of the power control scheme iscarried out.

量子密码技术开辟通信安全新时代

量子密码技术被认为是绝对安全的加密技术。近年来,在美国、德国、日本和中国,相关研究都取得了明显进展。2004年6月,世界上第一个量子密码通信网络在美国马萨诸塞州剑桥城正式投入运行,标志着这一技术迈上了新台阶。据相关机构估算,量子保密通信系统一旦商用,将形成高达10亿美元的市场。

钻井液用BDY-1便携式堵漏仪

在堵漏过程中，对堵漏材料和堵漏浆配方的优选是决定堵漏成功的关键。为了能在现场对堵漏进行评价，研制出BDY－1便携式堵漏仪，该堵漏仪主要由不锈钢钢柱圈钢，压力表等加工而成，该堵漏仪体积小，重量轻，价格低，仅为国产堵漏仪的1／20。试验结果表明BDY－1便携式堵漏仪操作简便，可快速对堵漏材料进行评价并筛选出堵漏配方；数据重复性好，准确可靠，能达到进口或国产堵漏仪的水平；在模拟漏层选定后，可采用多套压力梯度，对堵漏浆封堵效果进行评价，在压力梯度选定后，可评价堵漏浆对不同类型漏层的封堵效果；如果扩大压力范围，可对封堵后的漏层进行破裂试验，从而确定合理的钻井施工参数；适用现场操作和应用。

Macroscopic and crystallographic density of solid-state extruded polyethylene

Summary The influence of draw ratio on macroscopic and crystallographic density of polyethylene with different initial morphologies, has been investigated by solid-state extrusion. An initial drop followed by an increase in macroscopic density as a function of draw ratio has been observed. Since precision X-ray measurements of unit cell parameters showed no variation of crystallographic density, it was concluded that plastic deformation of polyethylene upon drawing proceeds with a decrease of the degree of crystallinity. This was confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry.
