Title: Method of, and apparatus for, the transmission of a plurality of signals
Inventor: HARKER BRETT JAMES
IPC: H04B7/155
Filed: 2000-01-24
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of, and apparatus for, the transmission of a plurality of signals. It relates particularly, but not exclusively, to the simultaneous transmission and distribution of Coded Frequency Division Multiplexing (COFDM) signals in a Cellular Access to Broadband Services and Interactive Telvision (CABSINET) microcell. The method, and apparatus, for the transmission of a plurality of signals, include the steps of a) receiving a plurality of input signals; b) attenuating the said signals so as to provide suitable signals for enabling other components to operate in a preferred operating region; c) band-pass filtering the said signals; d) translating the frequency of the said signals to provide modified signals in a predetermined bandwith; e) attenuating the modified signals; f) band-pass filtering the modified signals; g) amplifying the modified signals; h) band-pass filtering the modified signals; and i) transmitting the modified signals to a plurality of receivers, so that each reciever, when suitable tuned, receives a separate transmitted signal. An advantage of the invention, over existing systems, is that the expensive and disruptive process of installation of cables is avoided.

Title: Auto cpap system
IPC: A61M16/00
Filed: 1992-11-13
Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for automatically and continuously regulating the level of nasal pressure to an optimal value during OSA treatment. OSA therapy is implemented by a device which automatically re-evaluates an applied pressure and continually searches for a minimum pressure required to adequately distend a patient's pharyngeal airway. For example, this optimal level varies with body position and stage of sleep throughout the night. In addition, this level varies depending upon the patient's body weight and whether or not alcohol or sleeping medicine has been ingested.

Title: Method and apparatus for fingerprinting and authenticating various magnetic media
Inventor: INDECK RONALD S
IPC: G11B20/00
Filed: 1995-08-14
Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for determining the remanent noise in a magnetic medium by, for example, DC saturation of a region thereof and measurement of the remaining DC magnetization. A conventional magnetic recording transducer may be used to determine the remanent noise. Upon determination, the remanent noise may then be digitized and recorded on the same magnetic medium to thereby "fingerprint" the magnetic medium. This "fingerprint" may then be later used to verify and authenticate the magnetic medium as being an original. The magnetic medium may be of a type adapted to record information magnetically or, even more broadly, any magnetic surface or substance that can be sensed through its magnetic field. In such manner, any magnetic medium, or any object having an associated magnetic medium, may be "fingerprinted" including credit cards, computer program diskettes, magneto-optic discs, videotapes, cassette tapes, bank checks, stock certificates, etc.

Title: Method and pump for impelling water in waters
Inventor: SKAARUP ERIK
IPC: F03B13/14
Filed: 1999-03-23
Abstract: A method for impelling water in e.g. a lake by with a pump transforming the waves of the lake into whirling water which is sent down towards the bottom of the water area. The pump comprises a horizontally extending whirl pipe with a longitudinal slot and at least one preferably curvedly extending baffle with a top front edge mainly facing a wave front in the lake in operation and a bottom rear edge extending along the slot. Both ends of the whirl pipe are fluid-connected to a submersible pipe extending down towards the bottom of the water area. The pump is simple and reliable as it functions without movable parts. The pump can without costs for external energy take surface water high in oxygen and atmospheric air down to enrich "dead" bottom water low in oxygen. At the same time the pump can advantageously be used for removing undesired constituents such as superfluous biomass from the lake and add desired additives such as lime to this.

Title: Slagline sleeve for submerged entry nozzle and composition therefor
Inventor: HOOVER DONALD B
IPC: C04B35/48
Filed: 1997-07-08
Abstract: An improved submerged entry nozzle is provided which is useful in the casting of aluminum killed molten steel. The nozzle has an improved slagline sleeve or collar which surrounds the outer portion of the nozzle to protect it from corrosion during the casting process. The slagline sleeve is made from resin bonded zirconia/graphite which has been formulated so that upon curing of the resin to form resite, there is a reduction in the contractile tendency which results in a reduction in stress fracturing. The reduction of the contractile tendency and the resulting resistance to stress fracturing is achieved by adding an effective amount of calcium oxide to the resin-zirconia-graphite mixture which is used to form the sleeve.

Title: Method and apparatus for forming dispenser delivery ports
Inventor: GEERKE JOHAN H
IPC: B23K26/08
Filed: 1995-12-01
Abstract: A method of laser drilling a delivery port (37) in a beneficial agent dispenser (30) is disclosed. A dispenser (30) has a compartment (32) formed by a wall (31) for containing a beneficial agent (33) to be delivered. A laser beam is employed for burning at least partially through the wall (31). The laser beam and the dispenser (30) are positioned relative to one another such that the laser beam is aimed at a predetermined port site (35) on the dispenser (30). The laser beam is turned off (unenergized) during the positioning period. The laser beam is then energized and moved relative to the dispenser (30) for scribing a delivery port (37) proximate the port site (35). The scribing motion moves the laser beam from the port site (35) along a course (37). Preferably the course (37) is closed. The scribing motion causes the burning of the wall (31) by the laser beam to scribe the delivery port (37). The positioning motion and the scribing motion are controlled by a scanning system (16). The laser source (13) beam is energized during the scribing motion for burning the wall (31) forming the delivery port (37) therein for subsequent delivery of the beneficial agent (33) therethrough.

Title: Polymer for binding amine containing ligands and uses thereof
Inventor: TURNER ANTHONY PETER FRANCIS
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 2000-04-25
Abstract: Reaction of a dialdehyde, particularly phthaldialdehyde (I), with R-Z where Z is a nucleophilic group (preferably SH) and R is polymerisable (e.g. allyl) gives a reactive thioacetal (V) which can react with an amine ligand L-NH2 to produce an isoindole (IV) which may be fluorescent.
