Patent EP-1181895-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ZIKORUS ARTHUR W
IPC: A61B18/14
Filed: 2001-08-14
Abstract: An electrode catheter is introduced into a vein or other hollow
anatomical structure, and is positioned at a treatment site within the structure.
The end of the catheter is positioned near a junction formed in the structure.
This junction can be the sapheno-femoral junction. The position of the
catheter near the junction is determined based on a signal from a device
associated with the catheter within the structure. A fiber optic filament which
emits light is used with the catheter or a guide wire over which the catheter is
advanced. The light is visible externally from the patient. The light dims and
may no longer externally visible at the sapheno-femoral junction where the
catheter moves past the deep fascia and toward the deep verious system. The
position of the catheter can be determined based on this external observation.
The position of the catheter can also be determined based on measured
parameters such as temperature or flow rate within the structure, and the
measured changes in one or more of these parameters as the catheter nears the
junction. The hollow anatomical structure can be compressed for this
procedure. The position of the catheter can also be determined mechanically
by including a hook-shaped tip on the catheter or guide wire which would
physically engage the junction.

Abstract: Deployable antenna systems 10, 10a for use on a spacecraft 20 that is moveable from a stowed position to a deployed position. Two embodiments are discloded that include one or two sets of main reflector assembly 16 (and optional adjustment mechanism 18) and subreflectors 17. The antenna systems include one or more feed horn assembly 11 fixedly attached to the spacecraft and a rotatable hinge 12 attached to the spacecraft. A substantially rigid reflector support structure 13 is attached to the hinge and rotates about a hinge axis. The main reflector assembly 16 (and optional adjustment mechanism 18) is attached to a lower portion 14 of the support structure and the subreflector is attached to an upper portion 15 of the support structure. The subreflector has a fixed relation relative to the main reflector assembly and has a fixed relation relative to the one or more feed horn assembly when the antenna system is in the deployed position so that the antenna systems generate predetermined beam coverage patterns.

Abstract: Route switch packet architecture processes data packets using a multi-threaded
pipelined machine wherein no instruction depends on a preceding instruction because each
instruction in the pipeline is executed for a different thread. The route switch packet
architecture transfers a data packet from a flexible data input buffer to a packet task
manager, dispatches the data packet from the packet task manager to a multi-threaded
pipelined analysis machine, classifies the data packet in the analysis machine, modifies
and forwards the data packet in a packet manipulator. The route switch packet architecture
includes an analysis machine having multiple pipelines, wherein one pipeline is dedicated
to directly manipulating individual data bits of a bit field, a packet task manager, a packet
manipulator, a global access bus including a master request bus and a slave request bus
separated from each other and pipelined, an external memory engine, and a hash engine.
