Title: System for corneal reprofiling
Inventor: MULLER DAVID F
IPC: G02B3/04
Filed: 1995-12-04
Granted: 2000-03-23
Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for corneal reprofiling employing an annular beam of ablative radiation to correct refractive errors in vision, and/or create "blend zones" in order to reduce any surface discontinuities on the cornea following hyperopia-correcting or astigmatism-correcting procedures. Preferably, the methods and systems of the present invention also operate to change the intensity distribution of the light beam, such that the annulus of radiation has a varying intensity as a function of radius and, thereby, achieves a blending or other desired effect with the least number of pulses. Methods of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) are disclosed, including the steps of (a) selectively reprofiling a cornea of an eye by removing a volume of corneal tissue with ablative radiation to form a reprofiled region in the optical zone which steepens, at least in part, the central curvature of the cornea; and (b) applying to a peripheral region of the cornea an annular beam of ablative radiation having an intensity which varies radially from a inner to a outer segment of the annular beam to create a blend zone, thereby providing a smooth transition between the repro filed region and an unablated region of the cornea. Optical lens elements also are disclosed having a generally conic front face and a rear face which is generally perpendicular to the path of the incident beam. Light passing through this optical element will be refracted into an annular beam. Variations in the intensity profile of the annular beam can be introduced by employing an initial beam which has a non-uniform profile, or by modifying the shape of either the front face or the rear face of the optical element.

Title: Embedded quadtree wavelets in image compression
Inventor: WANG MENG
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 1999-08-10
Granted: 2004-01-22
Abstract: A new effective and fast method and apparatus for still image compression implements an embedded progressive sorting scheme in a quadtree-like structure. In contrast to zerotree-based methods for wavelet coding, the invented embedded quadtree wavelet (EQW) method exploits the inherent spatial self-similarity within individual layers of the multiresolution decomposition hierarchy. This self-similarity offers higher predictability of the data within the same resolution level, and therefore usually provides a higher performance in seeking a compact code. The computation involved in the EQW method is more efficient than in the zerotree wavelet coding, and the produced bitstream is more robust to channel noise. The present invention can effectively be used for object-oriented shape coding or region coding in image and video compression coding systems.

Title: Preparation of polyamide coating powders
Inventor: MUMCU SALIH
IPC: C08J3/12

Granted: 1987-12-24
Abstract: The invention concerns an improved precipitation process in the manufacture of coating powders based on polyamides having at least ten aliphatically bound carbon atoms per carbonamide group. Rapid cooling takes place with stirring mainly by distilling the ethanol solvent until the temperature of precipitation is set in the range from 90 DEG  to 113 DEG  C. With the beginning of the saturation limit (about 125 DEG  C.), the temperature difference between the coolant in the jacket and the solution inside is maintained at most at +/-3 DEG  C. The solution is maintained during the precipitation stage at constant temperature (isothermal procedure) by further distillation of the ethanol.

Title: Network for multi-lateration with circularly polarized antenna
Inventor: BOYD ROBERT W
IPC: G06K17/00
Filed: 1999-09-02
Granted: 2002-11-28
Abstract: A distributed radio geo-location and tracking system has a distributed subsystem architecture that distributes its processing workload over a plurality of information handling and processing subsystems. For maximum detection capability, each of a plurality of tag emission receivers is equipped with a circularly polarized, omnidirectional antenna, to provide hemispherical coverage. The receivers are coupled to a partitioned plurality of detection processors, that are coupled via distributed association processors to multiple location processors. Each detection processor demodulates and time stamps received energy correlated to known spreading codes of the tags, to associate received energy with only one tag. It transmits a message containing this information over a communication framework to an association processor. The computational load is equitably distributed by a flow control mechanism among available association processors, with all receptions of a single tag transmission being directed to the same association processor. An association processor organizes received messages by tag and time-of-arrival (TOA), and transmits association reports over an association communication process of the communication framework to one of plural distributed location processors. A location processor determines the geographical locations of tags using the TOA information in the association reports.
