Abstract: The invention relates to a method for evaluating the quality of a signal transmission path (2) presenting non-linear distortions. According to said method a specified test signal is sent from a transmitter (1) to a receiver (3). First the level of the received signal is adjusted in the receiver (3) and then a global quality evaluation is carried out using a specified comparative method. To adjust the signal level a local quality evaluation (11) based on the specified comparative method is carried out in a specified number of different, predefined windows (V1, à, VN-1, VN). Thereafter at least one window with an adequate local transmission quality is determined. The ratio of signal level of the test signal to signal level of the received signal is calculated in at least one window and the level of the entire received signal is adjusted on the basis of this ratio. Preferably only windows containing, for example, at least 50 % of the total signal energy are used for adjusting the level. The quality evaluation can be carried out using a known method such as the BSD method.

Abstract: Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Steuerung eines stufenlos in seiner Übersetzung verstellbaren Getriebes (4) bei einem Kraftfahrzeug, wobei das Getriebe zusammen mit einer ein einstellbares Ausgangsmoment (md_kup) aufweisenden Antriebseinheit (1) in dem Antriebsstrang des Kraftfahrzeugs angeordnet ist. Erfindungsgemäß sind Bestimmungsmittel (41, 45) zur Bestimmung einer Größe (md_ge_max) vorgesehen, die das momentan maximal übertragbare Drehmoment des Getriebes (4) repräsentiert. Weiterhin wird dann durch Begrenzungsmittel (30, 11) das Ausgangsmoment (md_kup) der Antriebseinheit auf einen Grenzwert (md_kup_max) begrenzt, wobei dieser Grenzwert abhängig von der oben bestimmten Größe (md_ge_max) ermittelt wird. Um das Getriebe sicher vor Beschädigung durch erhöhten Schlupf zu schützen, ist es also erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, das vom Motor abgegebene Drehmoment (md_kup) zu begrenzen, wenn die Anpresskraft so gering ist, daß die Gefahr des Schlupfes besteht. Da das Moment des Motors im allgemeinen schneller begrenzt werden kann als die Anpreßkraft erhöht werden kann, gelangt man zu einem sicheren System, ohne eine allzu große kraftstoffverbrauchsfördernde Sicherheitsreserve bei der Anpreßkraft vorsehen zu müssen.

Abstract: The case (1) comprises a receptacle (41) with two detachably interconnected receptacle parts (42, 43). The receptacle (41) contains a dental implant (11) and a holder (61). The dental implant (11) has an anchoring section (15) designed to be anchored in a bone, i.e., an outside thread, and an outer section (16) indented to jut out from the bone. The holder (61) engages the outer section (16) of the dental implant (11) and detachably secures it using clamping and/or locking means (67). The dental implant (11) and the holder (61) are connected to each other by anti-rotation means (31, 72) preventing rotations around a common axis (13). Once the case has been opened (41), the holder (61) can be gripped manually or using a tool or instrument and the dental implant (11) held by the holder (61) can be inserted into a bone in the mouth of a patient by screwing, pushing or pressing said implant into the bone.

Abstract: The present invention describes pyridazinone compounds which are cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors, and in particular, are selective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). COX-2 is the inducible isoform associated with inflammation, as opposed to the constitutive isoform, cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) which is an important "housekeeping" enzyme in many tissues, including the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and the kidneys. The selectivity of these compounds for COX-2 minimizes the unwanted GI and renal side-effects seen with currently marketed non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for accurately determining the operating characteristics or impact of nonlinear effects on devices or communication systems transferring orthogonally coded spread-spectrum communication signals. A Walsh Power Ratio, is used to more accurately determine system response. This information can be used by power control loops in controlling or adjusting the operation of nonlinear elements or stages such as high power amplifiers in orthogonal CDMA communication systems to provide improved system response. The information can also be employed in assigning channels to systems users, and to proceed with physical changes to system hardware. The measurements used to formulate the WPR can be made to individual components or to entire systems by injecting communication signals in multiple channels containing data, and leaving at least one empty channel. The received power per channel on the output side of the system or device is then measured. A ratio of power density for the empty to the active channels is then formed. The determination of WPR for a system or components can be realized during periods of operation through periodic transfer of test signals either at allocated times or by interleaving among existing traffic signals in the system.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des analogues de folates inhibiteurs de la dihydrofolate réductase (DHFR) ordinaires métaboliquement internes inconnus jusqu'à présent, qui sont transportés jusqu'aux cellules tumorales via les récepteurs de folates réduits. Ces composés présentent, chez les lapins, des réponses anti-asthamiques supérieures à celles du méthotrexate et du médicament habituel, la théophylline. Le composé de l'invention, l'acide 4-amino-4-déoxy-5,8,10-tridéaza-pteroyl-4'-méthylèneglutamique (1), déploie une activité antitumorale remarquable. Ce composé (1) est de 10 à 10000 fois plus actif que le méthotrexate dans l'inhibition de la croissance totale de plusieurs cellules tumorales humaines cultivées. A l'inverse du méthotrexate, les valeurs d'inhibition de la croissance totale sont comprises dans des plages de concentrations thérapeutiquement adéquates. Les cellules tumorales résistantes au méthotrexate en raison d'une polyglutamylation déficiente ont présenté une sensibilité collatérale 3 à 4 fois plus élevée au composé (1). Ce composé (1) est complètement inerte lorsqu'il est incubé avec une folylpolyglutamate synthétase. En traitant le composé (1) avec une préparation d'aldéhyde oxydase, aucune activité oxydante n'a été découverte. Le composé (1) est totalement résistant à l'hydrolyse du fragment glutamate par la carboxypeptidase dérivée de Pseudomonad sp. Les propriétés biochimiques et pharmacologiques de ces antifoliques ordinaires métaboliquement inertes démontrent leur utilité clinique et leur supériorité comme nouveaux agents anti-inflammatoires et antitumoraux dotés d'une spécificité d'enzyme cible améliorée et d'une moindre toxicité.
