Title: Hybrid arq method with signal constellation rearrangement
Inventor: WENGERTER CHRISTIAN
IPC: H04L1/18
Filed: 2001-02-21
Abstract: A hybrid ARQ retransmission method in a communication system, wherein data packets being encoded with a forward error correction (FEC) technique prior to transmission, are retransmitted based on an automatic repeat request and subsequently soft-combined with previously received erroneous data packets either on a symbol-by-symbol or a bit-by-bit basis. The symbols of said erroneous data packets are modulated by employing a predetermined first signal constellation. The symbols of the retransmitted data packets are modulated by employing at least a predetermined second signal constellation. Each symbol bit has a mean bit reliability defined by the individual bit reliabilities over all symbols of the predetermined signal constellation. According to the invention, the predetermined first and the at least second signal constellation are selected such that the combined mean bit reliabilities for the respective bits of all transmissions are averaged out.

Title: Diagnosis of sepsis or sirs using biomarker profiles
Inventor: BACHUR NICHOLAS
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2003-11-12
Abstract: The early prediction or diagnosis of sepsis advantageously allows for clinical intervention before the disease rapidly progresses beyond initial stages to the more severe stages, such as severe sepsis or septic shock, which are associated with high mortality. Early prediction or diagnosis is accomplished using a molecular diagnostics approach, involving comparing an individual's profile of biomarker expression to profiles obtained from one or more control, or reference, populations, which may include a population that develops sepsis. Recognition of features in the individual's biomarker profile that are characteristic of the onset of sepsis allows a clinician to diagnose the onset of sepsis from a bodily fluid isolated at the individual at a single point in time. The necessity of monitoring the patient over a period of time is, therefore, avoided, advantageously allowing clinical intervention before the onset of serious symptoms of sepsis.
Patent CA-2506689-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SMITH MALCOLM M
IPC: H04H20/00
Filed: 2003-11-13
Abstract: A communication system includes a cell site router that receives a voice traffic system in a layer two based protocol. The cell site router removes redundant information to generate a compressed stream of payloads from the layer two based protocol voice traffic stream. The cell site router sorts each payload of the compressed stream according to its intended destination and generates a layer two packet for each group of payloads of the compressed stream having a same intended destination. The cell site router prioritizes for transmission each layer two packet with other packets not carrying the voice traffic stream and having the same intended destination. The communication system also includes an aggregation node that receives packets from the cell site router. The aggregation node separates layer packets from the other packets and extracts each payload from each of the layer two packets. The aggregation node decompresses each payload towards its intended destination.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and system provide for efficient use of communication resources for providing broadcast services in a communication system. A  receiver receives a first broadcast controller identification from a first base station, and a second broadcast controller identification from a second base station. A controller coupled to the receiver determines whether the first and second broadcast controller identifications are associated with use of a common set of broadcast parameters. A transmitter transmits a request for transmission of a new set of broadcast parameters when the first and second broadcast controller identifications are not associated with use of the common set of broadcast parameters. After receiving the new set of broadcast parameters, the receiver uses the new set of broadcast parameters for receiving broadcast services.
