Title: Optimization of excitation voltage amplitude for collision induced dissociation of ions in an ion trap
Inventor: QUARMBY SCOTT T
IPC: H01J49/42
Filed: 2009-02-09
Abstract: Collision induced dissociation of precursor ions in an ion trap is performed by determining a predicted fragmentation-optimized excitation voltage amplitude based on an indicator of damping gas pressure, such as a damping gas flow rate, and optionally other parameters including precursor ion m/z and an indicator of the Mathieu parameter q. The excitation voltage may then be applied to electrodes of the ion trap in steps of increasing amplitude, wherein at least one of the amplitudes corresponds to the predicted optimum value. Application of the excitation voltage in this manner produces favorable fragmentation efficiencies over a range of operating parameters and for ions of differing chemical properties.

Abstract: Communication techniques enable efficient communication to an UE (User Equipment) that is subject to a domi-nant interterence signal that is transmitted by a different base station. Disclosed interference cancellation techniques, both UE-centric and network-centric, are suitable to this situation. These techniques are particularly advantageous when undesirable or dif-ficult to introduce changes in the physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers at the existing base stations. UE-cen-tric framework refers to an approach largely implemented by UEs to include pico or femto cells. Network-centric framework closed-loop coordination between base stations and UEs mitigate interference thereby improving network performance. In particu-lar, an interfering base-station can help a "victim" UE by adjusting downlink pilot and control power and to adjust traffic data rates responsive to information that the "victim" UEs provide, including information about the interfering link and performance of the cancellation itself sent over the air or using the backhaul.

Abstract: The present invention relates to covered endoprosthetic devices. Covered endoprosthetic devices comprise an endoprosthesis and a sheath. The sheath comprises a central portion and outer portions, wherein the central portion preferentially restricts or causes a restriction of blood flow. Blood flow can be reduced by the central portion of the sheath by varying the permeability of the sheath or by having projections on the sheath that slow blood flow. Permeability may be provided by perforations or holes in the material of the sheath or by varying the polymer structure that makes up the sheath itself.  The outer portions of the sheath do not substantially reduce blood flow. Methods of using sheath-covered endoprosthetic devices of the invention to treat aneurysms, especially aneurysms in proximity to small perforator vessels or arteries, are also encompassed.
