Title: Endovascular guide for use with a percutaneous device for harvesting tubular body members
Inventor: JOYCE STEPHEN J
IPC: A61B17/32
Filed: 2004-11-08
Granted: 2011-07-14
Abstract: A percutaneous harvesting device for the harvesting of tubular body members from a body is disclosed. The percutaneous harvesting device includes an endovascular guide for sufficiently straightening the tubular vessel to be removed and a perivascular cutting tool that is inserted over the endovascular guide. The cutting tool is advanced along the length of the tubular body member to be removed and it cuts body tissue (wherein the tubular body member is positioned inside the body tissue) as it is advanced. The body tissue is thus dissected from the body and can then be extracted percutaneously and rapidly from the body by pulling the endovascular guide, and the tubular body member and surrounding body tissue, from the body. The endovascular guide has one or more openings formed on the surface of the endovascular guide. The openings allow for introduced fluid to escape facilitating the removal of the endovascular guide from a tubular body member.

Title: Arrangement and method for transmitting control information in wireless communication systems
Inventor: MALLADI DURGA PRASAD
IPC: H04L1/16
Filed: 2008-10-29
Granted: 2012-04-05
Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate arrangement and transmission of control information in a wireless communication system. As described herein, a scheduled transmission of acknowledgement (ACK) signaling and channel quality information (CQI) signaling in a common subframe can be adapted for network implementations with limited link budget wherein ACK signaling is configured for repetition over multiple subframes to ensure a desired error rate level for the ACK signaling. To these ends, various aspects described herein facilitate modification of a coding rate applied to ACK signaling to be transmitted with data based on a repetition factor of the ACK signaling. Additionally and/or alternatively, various aspects described herein facilitate dropping of CQI signaling and transmission of only ACK signaling on subframes where CQI and ACK signaling are to be transmitted substantially simultaneously and ACK transmission is configured for repetition over multiple subframes.

Title: Method for operating a water softening system having two calibration characteristics and associated water softening system
Inventor: NEIDHARDT KLAUS
IPC: G05D21/02
Filed: 2008-12-04
Granted: 2012-04-19
Abstract: In summary, in order to detect the hardness of water using the electrical conductivity of raw water in a water softening device (1) that divides an approaching raw water stream V(t) into two partial streams V(t), V(t), subjects one partial stream V(t) to a full softening, and then combines the two partial streams to form one blended water stream V(t), the invention proposes that two different calculations be provided for converting the measured electrical conductivity into raw water hardness. The calculation with a first calibration curve (F1) is conservative and reflects the maximum occurring water hardnesses at various levels of conductivity and is used for automatically controlling the regeneration of an ion exchanger resin (5) at a known capacity of the ion exchanger resin. The calculation with a second calibration curve (F2) is realistic and provides the average water hardnesses (i.e., the water hardnesses tainted with the smallest statistical margins of error) at different levels of conductivity and is used for controlling the combination device (i.e., the portions of the two partial streams included in the combined water). Using the invention, experimentally detected variations in the water composition (and thus different relationships between conductivity and water hardness) can be taken into account in order to determine the regeneration point in an optimal fashion and minimize tolerances of the combined water hardness relative to a target value.
