Patent GB-0029874-D0 (GB)
Title: Signal processing
IPC: H03H17/02
Filed: 2000-12-07
Abstract: A filter ( 26 ) is used to average power values of a signal that has been subjected to varying gain. The gain is factorised into two factors, the first being the highest power of 2 within the gain, and the second being a factor which can be multiplied with the first factor to reprodeuce the gain. The power values are divided by the second factor before reaching the filter ( 26 ) and by the first factor after passing through the filter ( 26 ). The signal values already in the filter ( 26 ) are bit-shifted when the exponent in the first changes so that the filter is not disrupted by changes in the gain.

Title: Vehicle lid hinge
IPC: E05D15/40
Filed: 2001-03-30
Abstract: A hinge for a vehicle lid comprises a main spring means (112) operable to urge the hinge into an open position, and a device (114) for assisting the initial opening of the hinge, the device comprising an elongate body in which a plunger (116) is slideable, the plunger being engageable with the hinge, and spring means disposed in the body and acting on the plunger to urge it into an extended position. The plunger is cylindrical and is retained in a cylindrical cavity in the body by an annular fastening, the fastening being formed with one or more radially projecting ribs which engage with an annular recess at the opening of the cylindrical cavity to attach the fastening means to the body. The plunger is formed such that in the extended position disengagement of the one or more ribs from the annular recess is inhibited, preventing the plunger from forcing the fastening out of the body. A bracket extends from a wall of the body to define a slot between the member and the wall, enabling the device to be mounted upon a link of the hinge. <IMAGE>
Patent GB-0114673-D0 (GB)
Title: A method for reducing interference to communications in time division duplexing (TDD) mode between a TDD mobile and a TDD base station
IPC: H04B1/12
Filed: 2001-06-15
Abstract: The amount of interference to communications in Time Division Duplexing (TDD) mode between a TDD mobile and a TDD base station from a mobile operating in Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) mode that is located near to the TDD base station can be reduced by passing information regarding the interfering FDD signal to the TDD base station, where it is processed and subtracted from the received TDD signal, which includes the interference, so as to obtain the pure TDD signal, as required. Either the FDD data ( 22 ), or an FDD signal ( 23 ) regenerated from the FDD data or simply the received FDD signal ( 21 ) can be passed ( 24 ) to the TDD base station. The TDD base station can regenerate an FDD signal, if required, which is then filtered ( 25 ) using TDD filters and normalized by correlating ( 26 ) and scaling ( 27 ) the filtered FDD signal to a received TDD signal. The normalized FDD signal is then subtracted ( 28 ) from the received TDD signal to reduce the interference.

Title: Methods and apparatus for the measurement of hydrogen sulphide and thiols in fluids
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2003-01-15
Abstract: A wellbore tool has an electrochemical sensor for measuring the amount of hydrogen sulphide or thiols in a fluid downhole in a wellbore. The sensor comprises a temperature- and pressure-resistant housing containing a flow path for the fluids.

Title: Integration of meningococcal conjugate vaccination
IPC: A61K39/095
Filed: 2005-01-14
Abstract: Conjugated meningococcal capsular saccharides will be introduced into immunisation schedules in the near future, but the phenomenon of "carrier suppression" must first be addressed, particularly where multiple conjugates are to be used. In the invention, tetanus toxoid is used as the carrier protein, even where multiple meningococcal conjugates are administered at the same time and where a patient has previously been exposed to the carrier protein, either in the form of a previous immunogen (e.g. in a DTP vaccine) or as a previous carrier protein (e.g. in a Hib or pneumococcal conjugate vaccine). The invention provides a method for immunising a patient, comprising administering multiple conjugates of meningococcal capsular saccharides, wherein each conjugate comprises a tetanus toxoid carrier protein, and the capsular saccharide, and wherein the patient has been pre-immunised with a tetanus toxoid.
