Patent EP-1127466-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CINKLER KALMAN
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 1999-10-26
Abstract: To provide an approach to correction of residual errors in subband-based transmission schemes there is provided a channel error correction apparatus with a first synthesis unit (12) for synthesizing a preliminary output signal from subband signals received via a transmission channel. A subband correcting is achieved through a subband reanalysis unit (14) analyzing the preliminary output signal through subband filtering without downsampling, an error estimation unit (16) estimating errors in subband reanalysis output signals using subband specific error patterns, and an error compensation unit (20) correcting the subband signals using error estimation results. A second synthesis unit (22) then synthesizes a final output signal from output signals of the error compensation unit (20).

Inventor: YIP BRANDON
IPC: G02B1/11
Filed: 1999-11-19
Abstract: A coated optical lens includes a lens element and a coating on the surface of the lens element. The coating exhibits a substantially balanced reflectance from the center to a radius proximate the edge of the lens element. The term "substantially balanced reflectance" means that where the thickness of the coating varies across the surface of the lens, the lightness, hue and chroma of the reflectance vary in a balanced manner such that variations in visual appearance are either imperceptible or generally acceptable to an observer. For example, variations in chromatic attributes, such as hue, from the center to the edge of the lens may be balanced by a reduction in lightness from the center to the edge. Preferably, the lens element includes a surface of high curvature upon which the balanced reflectance coating is deposited.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for identifying one or more functional sites in proteins. Said method is characterized by the following steps: a) contacting the target protein with a binding partner (BP tag) linked with a laser-activatable marker (tag), resulting in a complex consisting of target protein and BP tag, b) irradiating the complex consisting of target protein and BP tag with laser light, resulting in the formation of free radicals which selectively modify the bound target protein at the binding site, and c) identifying the selectively modified region of the protein by a combination of protein cleavage and mass spectrometry. The invention further relates to a device for carrying out the inventive method.

Title: Porous film and method of preparation thereof
Inventor: BARTLETT PHILIP NIGEL
IPC: C25D1/08
Filed: 2000-08-30
Abstract: A method of preparing a porous film comprises electrodepositing material from a mixture onto a substrate, the mixture comprising: (I) a source of metal, inorganic oxide, non-oxide semiconductor/conductor or organic polymer, (II) a solvent such as water; and (III) a structure-directing agent such as octaethylene glycol monododecyl ether in an amount sufficient to form an homogeneous lyotropic liquid crystalline phase in the mixture. Electrodepositing the film from a lyotropic liquid phase in this manner provides a porous film having a substantially regular structure and substantially uniform pore size. Following deposition, the porous film may be treated to remove the structure-directing agent. The porous film may optionally be subjected to further treatment such as the electrochemical or chemical insertion of ionic species, the physical absorption of organic, inorganic or organometallic species, or the electrodeposition, solution phase deposition or gas phase deposition of organic, inorganic or organometallic species.

Title: System and method for originating a sip call via a circuit-switched network from a user equipment device
Inventor: BUCKLEY ADRIAN
IPC: H04L/
Filed: 2008-09-29
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for originating a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) call from a user equipment (UE) device in a network environment including a circuit-switched (CS) network and an IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) network to a called party are disclosed. In one illustrative example, when the SIP call is originated by the UE device in the CS network domain, a SIP Invite message which includes a SIP Uniform Resource Indicator (URI) or Tel URI of the called party is sent from the UE device to the IMS network (e.g. to an application server (AS) node). At the AS node, a pool of E.164 numbers are maintained as IP multimedia routing numbers (IMRNs) which are utilized for mapping to or otherwise associating with called party URIs. Thus, the AS node dynamically allocates a select E.164 number with respect to the called party's URI received from the UE device, and returns it to the UE device in a SIP 380 (Alternative Service) Response message. Subsequently, the dynamically-allocaled E.164 number is sent from the UE device in a call setup message for identification of the URI at the AS node, via the mapping, so that the SIP call may be properly routed towards the called party.
