Abstract: In an apparatus for controlling ignition of a general-purpose internal combustion engine in which an ignition signal is produced both in a compression stroke and in an exhaust stroke of a four stroke cycle, one of the ignitions to be conducted based on the produced two ignition signals is cut and an after-ignition-cut engine speed is detected. Then it is discriminated whether each of the two ignition signals was produced in the compression stroke or in the exhaust stroke based on a difference between an average engine speed and the after-ignition-cut engine speed, and the ignition is controlled based on the ignition signal discriminated to be produced in the compression stroke in the two ignition signals, thereby enabling to improve the duration life of an ignition plug, with simple and compact structure.

Abstract: A calibration method and apparatus for surgical antennas which are arranged to deliver microwave radiation (e.g.  having a treatment frequency of 500 MHz to 100 GHz) into biological tissue is disclosed. An emitting region of the antenna is exposed to a plurality of calibration standards each having a different complex impedance at the treatment frequency. In one embod-iment the calibration standards are created in a short-circuit-terminated waveguide cavity of variable length. In another embodiment, each calibration standard is a different mixture of two or more liquids.  Measurement of the magnitude and phase of signals reflected from the emitting region when exposed to the calibration standard can permit calibration of the antenna, e.g. by generating a mapping function based on the measured values and known or reference values for the calibration standards. Also disclosed is tissue treatment apparatus having an ablation channel for conveying microwave radiation to a surgical antenna at a high power level and a separate measurement channel for conveying microwave radiation to a surgical antenna at a low power level, wherein the measurement chan-nel bypasses noisy components on the ablation channel. A surgical antenna having an impedance transformer for matching an e.g.  coaxial feed structure which terminates in one or more radiating elements with tissue to be treated is also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention provides a novel system for the tunable expression of nucleic acids encoding e.g., polypeptides such as recombinant proteins in prokaryotic systems. The system is based on the ability of T7 lysozyme (T7Lys) to inhibit the activity of T7R-NAP. Expression of T7Lys can be continuously adjusted as its expression is under the control of a promoter whose activity can be titrated. The invention provides a host cell capable of expressing T7 RNA polymerase, the host cell comprising a first nucleic acid having a T7 lysozyme gene or a T7 lysozyme variant gene and a tunable promoter for controlling the expression of the T7 lysozyme gene. It also provides a host cell further comprising a second nucleic acid having a T7 promoter operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence encoding a target polypeptide, whereby expression of the target polypeptide is tuned via controlling the expression of the T7 lysozyme gene.

Abstract: A GNSS receiver reduces the time to first fix by utilizing the properties of existing radiated signals of opportunity, such as AM or FM radio signals, television signals and so forth, to reduce the uncertainties associated with oscillator frequency and phase, and further utilizing an Almanac and battery backed-up date and time to determine the satellites in view and reduce the uncertainties associated with Doppler. The receiver may use multiple signals of opportunity to determine the city or local area in which the receiver is located based on the set of frequencies of the signals, and also to reduce search uncertainties for oscillator frequency by estimating an offset based on the differences between the frequencies of the respective signals of opportunity at the receiver and the nominal broadcast frequencies of the signals.
