Abstract: An intraluminal prothesis able to expand radially regarding to a central axis, inside of a body lumen, for example an artery, is presented. The prothesis consists of a series of filaments describing a cylindrical prothesis contour. Each filament consists of a series of curves, each curve having at least a lowest point and a top. Between the adjacent filaments there are gaps. Each gap is bridged by an axial omega shaped element as a connecting part. Each connecting part is attached to adjacent filaments the height of the tops so that the prothesis shortening occurs at radial expansion. Other elements can be placed between the adjacent peripheral elements to obtain a different grade of flexibility between the adjacent filaments. The specific configuration of the prothesis allows further treatment of the branches by the prothesis. By using water guided laser cutting technology and specific electrochemical polishing technology a more biocompatible prothesis is obtained, causing less thrombogenicity and less foreign body reaction. By covering an intraluminal prothesis with a titaniumnitride coating the biocompatibility of the prothesis is improved. By applying perforations or holes, an intraluminal prothesis can be used to locally administer medicines, genes and or other substances to prevent in this way thrombotic occlusions and/or neointimal hyperplasia and prothesis narrowing. Using this specific perforated prothesis design the total drug capacity can be increased and also the drug release time prolongs significantly.

Abstract: Briefly, a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a wafer carrier buffer for storage of a plurality of carriers containing wafers either waiting to be taken for processing in an adjacent wafer processing system, or waiting to be taken from the buffer following the processing. The buffer has a sliding carrier first input apparatus for taking a carrier from outside the buffer through a buffer input door and into the buffer interior. A buffer controller is included for directing robotic apparatus to take the carrier from the input apparatus and place it on a selected one of a plurality of carrier storage locations, and from a carrier storage location to a first output for delivery of wafers to processing. The robotic apparatus also delivers an empty carrier to a second input apparatus for receiving wafers from the processing area, and for delivery of a carrier with processed wafers to a second sliding output apparatus for removal from the buffer through a buffer output door. The controller is programmed to direct an automatic calibration of all of the carrier storage locations and the input and output positions. The robotic apparatus includes a sensor for detecting the position of a flange on a calibration fixture that is placed by the robot at a carrier storage location. The flange is accurately positioned on the fixture to correspond to a similar flange on each carrier that is used to engage with a tool on the robotic apparatus for moving the carrier. The calibration is preferably done by directing the robotic apparatus to place the calibration fixture at a location in need of calibration and then sensing the precise position of the fixture flange with the sensor apparatus. The controller then calculates the coordinates required to place a carrier accurately in that location. This process is repeated for each carrier storage location and the input and output locations.

Abstract: A mobile station and its serving base transceiver station both have means to generate cell parameter information of a neighbouring cell to facilitate communication handover to the neighbouring cell, without the mobile station accessing or receiving information from the neighbouring cell providing said neighbouring cell parameter information. This avoids the need for background scanning of candidate neighbour cells by the mobile to determine the required synchronisation offset and operating parameters, such as the colour code (determines scrambling and frequency re-use pattern), maximum mobile transmit power or minimum receiver access level. Preferably in a shared Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) system only the colour code is required and the mobile and base station may use a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) to generate a pseudo-random sequence used to set the appropriate colour code. The generation may involve use of the neighbour cell id and location area (LA), periodically transmitted to the mobile by the serving base station. Facilitates seamless handover and reduces dropped calls or breaks in communications due to handovers.

Abstract: Selon la présente invention, dans des puits de forage fortement déviés (2) ou lorsque l'angle d'inclinaison relatif entre la stratification du terrain (4) et l'axe du puits de forage est grand, les mesures d'induction de rangée présentent des pointes erratiques, des séparations de courbes trompeuses, et des valeurs de résistivité imprécises, empêchant les diagraphistes (Fig. 3) d'évaluer précisément les résistivités d'invasion et de formation. Pour résoudre ces problèmes, divers procédés de correction et diverses techniques d'inversion ont été développés. Cependant, les procédés de correction, permettent seulement d'obtenir des résultats satisfaisants lorsque l'angle d'inclinaison relatif (205) est faible à modéré, et les techniques d'inversion sont généralement très chronophages.

Abstract: A mass spectrometer comprises an ion source which provides a beam of ions; a mass filter comprising a pair of electrodes and a drive circuit, the drive circuit operable to apply a time varying voltage to the electrodes having a profile that accelerates the ions to equal velocities irrespective of their mass: charge ratios; and an ion detector for detecting the proportions of ions according to their mass-to-charge ratios. In one embodiment, the voltage profile is exponential. In another embodiment, the voltage profile is a sequence of constant amplitude and increasing repetition frequency pulses. The novel mass filter thus imparts equal velocities to all ion species irrespective of their mass. This allows the ion species to be discriminated at the detector by energy, enabling simple and compact detection schemes to be used.

Abstract: A radio station ( 10 ) in which the value of parameters for a model of a received multipath signal are estimated, the model comprising a value representative of the perpendicular distance between the plane of the reflecting surfaces ( 40, 50 ) and the radio station. This perpendicular distance may be measured from the round trip delay of a sounding signal transmitted by the radio station. The amount of computation is reduced by applying constraints to the parameters, and these constraints may comprise this perpendicular distance. The constraints may also be a function of parameters such as the path length, angle of arrival or amplitude of the direct path signal, and the amplitude of reflections of the sounding signal. The values of the parameters may be estimated initially by analysis of the received signals, followed by a parameter estimation process. The values of the resulting parameters are exploited in applications such as ranging, location or equalisation.
