Abstract: The present invention relates to the measurement of interactions, and especially biospecific interactions in an assay using mass spectrometry. More in particular, the present invention makes it possible to measure specific interactions in a homogeneous biochemical assay. The on-line detection method of the present invention comprises contacting an effluent of a fractionation step with a controlled amount of affinity molecules, which affinity molecules bind with analytes suspected to be present in the effluent. This step is followed by the addition of a controlled amount of known ligands, which ligands bind to the affinity molecules, by which ligand/affinity molecule-complexes are formed. In accordance with the invention, the free ligands are detected in the presence of the ligand/affinity molecule-complexes, using a mass spectrometer.

IPC: F01D5/28
Filed: 2002-03-08
Abstract: A coating formulation for application to surfaces associated with combustion, such as
fuel injectors, and surfaces subjected to elevated temperatures, such as fuel supply components,
to prevent the deposition at high temperatures of carbon or graphite on such surfaces, such as
stainless steel and alloyed steel compositions. The coating formulation forms a thin layer of
polymer coating on the surface by chemical grafting involving the use of a graft initiator to
create active bonding sites, on the metal surface, for the silicone-based prepolymer to undergo
polymerization on the metal surface. The bonding and polymerization are completed in a single
application process without using complex equipment. The coating and process helps surfaces
associated with combustion and surfaces subjected to elevated temperature reduce carbon or
coke formation at temperatures up to 700°F and thereby improves the durability and
performance of those surfaces.

Abstract: A reverse transmission controlling method in a mobile communication system, after
receiving forward information, commanding the increase or decrease of the reverse data rate
received on a forward control channel from a base station, a mobile station determines whether
the previous rate increase available information transmitted to the base station on a reverse
control channel before reception of the forward information indicates that a reverse data rate
increase is available, if the forward information commands a reverse data rate increase. The
mobile station increases the current reverse data rate to a data rate equal to or less than a
maximum reverse data rate if the rate increase available information indicates that the reverse
data rate increase is available, and transmits reverse data at the increased reverse data rate.

Abstract: The invention includes a method for converting from an interlace scan
image to a progressive scan image. Interpolated rows of pixels, lying between
successive rows of the interlace scan image, are generated based upon the received
interlace scan rows. The method determines a degree of movement, if any, in the
region of a target pixel, and whether a target pixel lies on an edge between visually
distinct regions. Multiple potential interpolated values for the target pixel are
generated by several interpolation methods, including edge interpolation, inter-field
interpolation, non-linear interpolation, and intra-field interpolation. The system uses
the degree of movement and edge detection to select or combine one or more of the
potential values for the target pixel. At least one correction filter is applied to the
result, to correct errors caused by electrical noise in the interlace scan image.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved method and
apparatus for curing coatings on optical fibers, without
creating additional heat and compromising the manufacturing
speed of optical fibers. The present invention uses at
least one ultrasonic transducer (11,11a) coupled to a component of
the optical fiber draw tower, such as the coating die (12),
curing stage device or sheath (13,14,15), to emit ultrasound to the
coating of the fiber. The use of ultrasound with current
coating cure techniques, such as UV radiation curing, aids
in accelerating the coating cure process through the
effects of sonolysis, allowing an increase in current
manufacturing speeds of optical fibers.

IPC: H03F1/32
Filed: 2000-07-13
Abstract: A predistortion system comprises a digital compensation signal processing component (DCSP) (52) which predistorts a wideband input transmission signal to compensate for the frequency and time dependent AM-AM and AM-PM distortion characteristics of a non-linear amplifier (64). The DCSP (52) comprises a data structure (52H) in which each element stores a set of compensation parameters (preferably including FIR filter coefficients) for predistorting the input transmission signal. The parameter sets are preferably indexed within the data structure (52H) according to multiple signal characteristics, such as instantaneous amplitude and integrated signal envelope, each of which corresponds to a respective dimension of the data structure (52H). To predistort the input transmission signal, an addressing circuit (52C-52G) digitally generates a set of data structure indices from the input transmission signal, and the indexed set of compensation parameters is loaded into a compensation circuit (52A, 52B) which digitally predistorts the input transmission signal. This process of loading new compensation parameters into the compensation circuit (52A, 52B) is preferably repeated every sample instant, so that the predistortion function varies from sample-to-sample. The sets of compensation parameters are generated periodically and written to the data structure (52H) by an adaptive control processing and compensation estimator (ACPCE) (70) that performs a non-real-time analysis of amplifier input and output signals. The ACPCE (70) also implements various system identification processes for measuring the characteristics of the power amplifier (64) and generating initial sets of filter coefficients. In an antenna array embodiment (Figures 33 and 34), a single ACPCE (70) generates the compensation parameters sets for each of multiple amplification chains (64) on a time-shared basis. In an embodiment (Figure 32) in which the amplification chain (64) includes multiple nonlinear amplifiers (60A) that can be individually controlled (e.g., turned ON and OFF) to conserve power, the data structure (52H) separately stores compensation parameter sets for each operating state of the amplification chain (64) 
(Fig.3).

Abstract: Method for manufacturing elements made from composite
material using the co-bonding technique, in which uncured
elements (preformed beams (2)) are bonded onto another
cured element (the skin (3)) with multiple thickness
changes, using a rigid tooling made of invar used for
support and positioning during the curing process. Each
element is made with preimpregnated material using
automated tape laying. The preform of the beams (J-section)
is obtained by hot forming of flat laminates.
The final curing and bonding to the precured skin (co-bonding)
is performed using a direct vacuum bag in an
autoclave. A flat development of the vacuum bag is
performed, it is traced with a numerical control machine
and it is made prior to being placed on the tool. For
large surfaces with difficult access the final adjustment
is performed with the tool and the part in a vertical
position, due to the ergonomic difficulties involved in
working on certain areas of same. The invention is
applicable to the field of aeronautics.

Abstract: Semiconductor laser diodes, particularly high power AIGaAs-based ridge-waveguide
laser diodes, are often used in opto-electronics as so-called pump
laser diodes for fiber amplifiers in optical communication lines. To provide the
desired high power output and stability of such a laser diode and avoid degradation
during use, the present invention concerns an improved design of such
a device, the improvement in particular significantly minimizing or avoiding
(front) end section degradation of such a laser diode and significantly increasing
long-term stability compared to prior art designs. This is achieved by
establishing one or two "unpumped end sections" of the laser diode. One
preferred way of providing such an unpumped end section at one of the laser
facets (10, 12) is to insert an isolation layer (11, 13) of predetermined position,
size, and shape between the laser diode's semiconductor material and
the usually existing metallization (6).
