Title: Chromosome 9 and progressive rod-cone degeneration disease genetic markers and assays
Inventor: AGUIRRE GUSTAVO
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1998-06-08
Abstract: Provided are nucleic acid molecules which comprise at least a potion of a polymorphic genetic marker for determining whether a canine has a mutated progressive rod-cone degeneration disease (<I>prcd</I>) gene locus in one or both alleles. The genetic markers are located on canine chromosome 9 in a genomic region identified as the <I>prcd</I>-informative region. A method for making genetic markers representing polymorphic sequences located in the <I>prcd</I>-informative region of canine chromosome 9 comprises isolating a polymorphic DNA sequence in the <I>prcd</I> informative region, using oligonucleotides complementary with at least a portion of the sequence to amplify the sequence, and analyzing canine chromosome 9 in a <I>prcd</I>-informative region for the ability of the polymorphic sequence to co-segregate with the <I>prcd</I> gene locus by a linkage test. The presence of a mutated <I>prcd</I> gene locus in one or both alleles of a canine in a pedigree is detected by analyzing canine chromosome 9 in the canine for the presence of at least one polymorphic genetic marker, which co-segregates with the <I>prcd</I> gene locus, by a linkage analysis.

Title: Replaceable unit for a laser printer
Inventor: HARRIGAN MICHAEL E
IPC: G02F1/11
Filed: 2000-01-21
Abstract: A replaceable modular opto-mechanical unit 10 includes a light source in the form of, for example, a laser assembly 20; an optical modulator assembly 40 which modulates light from the light source; and a lens 30 located in a light path between the light source and the optical modulator assembly. The lens focuses the light from said light source toward a center of the optical modulator assembly. The unit further includes a base 80 adapted to removably support the light source, the optical modulator assembly and the lens in an optically aligned manner. The base is further adapted to be removably attached onto a receiving structure 84 of a printer, such that an attachment of the base having the optically aligned light source, optical modulator assembly, and lens supported thereon, permits light from the optical modulator assembly to be focussed onto an optical element of the printer, e.g. a lens 50 or fibre 60. The base 80 may include cylindrical surfaces (80a,b, fig 6) which engage V-shaped surfaces (82a,b, fig 7) in the receiving structure 84 to ensure alignment. A method of aligning the laser assembly 20, lens 30 and modulator assembly in the factory is also described. The arrangement permits one unit 10 to be replaced with another in the field without the need for complex adjustments.

Title: An arrangement in a predistortion or feedforward linearizer for an amplifier in which I and Q components are adjusted to achieve a desired phase and amplitude
Inventor: RING STEVEN RICHARD
IPC: H03F1/32
Filed: 2000-01-31
Abstract: The pre-distorter controller determines (at 210 Figure 2) if the residual distortion in the amplifier output is above a threshold. If so, the phase and amplitude of a pre-distortion signal combined with the amplifier input signal are adjusted sequentially to reduce the residual distortion below the threshold. When the residual distortion falls below the threshold, step (214) determines if the residual distortion is below a second, smaller, threshold. If is not, step (218) makes small adjustments to the phase and amplitude of the pre-distortion signal sequentially and the residual distortion is again tested at (214) to determine if it is now below the second threshold. If it is, then further adjustments are not made unless the residual distortion level moves above the second threshold. The control process can also be used with a feed forward lineariser to minimise output distortion (Figure 5) or unwanted input signal components in the signal fed forward (Figure 6).

Title: Motor vehicle electrical load management
Inventor: PICKERING STEPHEN ROBERT
IPC: H02J1/14
Filed: 2000-03-22
Abstract: Consumer units 6-14 some of which are activated by a user with controls 31, 32 are supplied with electrical current 30 by source 22. A monitoring means 2,4,26-28,106-114 is provided to monitor the source output power and the power required by the consumer units so as to reduce the amount of power required by the consumer units if the source cannot supply enough power. In order to limit the electrical current supplied a load current controlling means 2,4,106-114 will limit or cut off the supply to some of the consumer units based on predetermined criteria that accord some consumer units priority over others. Following the activation of a consumer unit by the user this unit will temporarily be accorded an increased priority and preferably some of the other units will temporarily be given a decreased priority. The temporary period is preferably predetermined and the use of an increased priority prevents the user activated device being one which is cut off, at least initially, so the user does not think it is broken.
