Abstract: A device and system communicates data and includes a modulation and mapping circuit that modulates and maps data symbols into a plurality of multiple subcarrier frequencies that are orthogonal to each other to form an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) communications signal based on a fixed or variable OFDM symbol rate. A pseudo-random signal generator is operative with the modulation and mapping circuit and generates pseudo-random signals to the modulation and mapping circuit based on an encryption algorithm for frequency hopping each subcarrier at an OFDM symbol rate to lower any probability of interception and detection, reduce power per frequency (dB/Hz/sec), and lower any required transmission power while maintaining an instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio, wherein selected subcarriers are turned ON or OFF to increase the transmit power and signal-to-noise ratio and reduce the Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI) and adverse effects of frequency selective fading.

Title: Electrochemical biosensor measuring system
Inventor: KIM MOON HWAN
IPC: G01N33/48
Filed: 2008-02-26
Granted: 2011-08-16
Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electrochemical biosensor measuring device which comprises at least two photodiodes for emitting light beams at regular time intervals in a sequential manner, with the insertion of an electrochemical biosensor thereto, and a detector for sensing the emitted light beams, thereby identifying the production lot information recorded on a production lot information identification portion on the electrochemical biosensor. Thus, the device enjoys economic advantages of not requiring a high-priced optical filter in detecting the light absorbed through or reflected from the production identification information recorded in biosensor and a complicated software algorithm to recover the production lot information. Also, the measuring device automatically identifies the production lot information recorded on the biosensor, so that the frequency of inconvenience and error that occur when a user personally inputs the production lot information of the biosensor can be reduced, with the result that the measured values can be conveniently and accurately acquired.

Abstract: By trolling fisheries the wire (w) is provided with stacker clamps (10). Each downrigger (2) associated with a wire (w) attached typically 3 or 4 stacker clamps (10) each indirectly holds a fishing line (4). The fishing line (4) is pulled out of the fishing line release (7) when a fish bites on a fishing lure (8). To avoid felting together with other fishing lines, the wire (w) is hauled in. The stacker clamp that includes a body part (A) and a wedge-shaped part (B) opens automatically when it hits the haul up capstan. After opening the top stacker clamp it unhindered can slide down the wire (w).  The next stacker clamp(s) opens automatically when it is hit by the top stacker clamp(s) or when they are subjected to downward pressure on the top surface (18) of the wedge-shaped part (B) on the clamp(s). Time-consuming manual handling of the stacker clamps (10) is eliminated, when the wire is hauled in on the downrigger (2).
