Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for estimating flat fading channel in CDMA communication system, said method is implemented by using an adaptive forward prediction technique based on lattice filter and maximum livelihood technique of Viterbi algorithm. The adaptive lattice filter is used to carry out prediction of LS criteria on channel fading, and a maximum likelihood detection technique completes Viterbi algorithm in accordance with a channel fading value obtained by the prediction, thus obtaining final estimation and decision about the transmitting signals. The present invention has the advantages that it can obtain accurate result for channel estimation and sequence decision when it operates in the fast fading channel, and overcome fast fading influence due to motion speed up of mobile station, thereby satisfying mobile station speed and corresponding receiving performance required in 3G mobile communication. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Immunostimulatory polysaccharides can be preferentially extracted from food-grade microalgae using an aqueous ethanol extraction procedure. The resulting preparations exhibit extremely potent immunostimulatory activity. The preferential extraction of these immunostimulatory polysaccharides is dependent on the concentration of ethanol used and the extraction temperature. The most efficient conditions are 50% ethanol concentration at temperatures between 60° and 70° C. The isolated polysaccharide preparations are potentially useful as a botanical or pharmaceutical preparation to improve immune function.

Abstract: L'invention a pour objet un procédé d'optimisation d'un modèle de fluence à produire par le biais d'un appareil radiothérapeutique pourvu d'un diaphragme de profondeur. Ce procédé comprend une itération d'une solution progressive (telle qu'une approche de gradient) du profil de fluence. Au moins quelques itérations comportent une fonction de pénalité pondérée qui varie entre des solutions privilégiées par le modèle du diaphragme de profondeur et des solutions moins privilégiées. Ces itérations incluent la fonction de pénalité à un poids supérieur. Ainsi, la fonction de pénalité représente des solutions préférées localement, dérivées des contraintes du diaphragme de profondeur. Tandis que l'itération progresse, le poids supérieur assigné à la fonction de pénalité amène le procédé à une solution rendue possible, en raison des contraintes dudit diaphragme. Toutefois, le poids inférieur lié aux étapes antérieures de l'itération permet au procédé de se diriger vers une solution véritablement préférée. Dans l'ensemble, ce procédé permet de migrer vers une solution idéale théoriquement et de diverger ensuite vers une solution proche pratiquement possible. On obtient ainsi une solution qui peut être mise en pratique mais qui est proche d'une solution théoriquement idéale, c'est-à-dire une solution qui pourrait être préférée en l'absence de contraintes dudit diaphragme. Selon une mode de réalisation préféré, la fonction de pénalité est calculée sur une partie du profil de fluence dans la région de l'emplacement de la solution d'itération. Idéalement, elle est centrée à cet endroit de manière à minimiser le temps passé à faire des calculs inutiles. On peut incorporer ce procédé dans un programme informatique appropriée stockée sur un support de données. Un appareil peut comporter un dispositif de stockage dans lequel se trouve le programme et un dispositif de traitement servant à l'exécution dudit programme.

Abstract: The present invention provides improved methods, systems, devices and kits for performing lung volume reduction in patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or other conditions where isolation of a lung segment or reduction of lung volume is desired. The methods are minimally invasive with instruments being introduced through the mouth (endotracheally) and rely on isolating the target lung tissue segment from other regions of the lung. Isolation is achieved by deploying an obstructive device in a lung passageway leading to the target lung tissue segment. Once the obstructive device is anchored in place, the segment can be aspirated through the device. This may be achieved by a number of methods, including coupling an aspiration catheter to an inlet port on the obstruction device and aspirating through the port. Or, providing the port with a valve which allows outflow of gas from the isolated lung tissue segment during expiration of the respiratory cycle but prevents inflow of air during inspiration. In addition, a number of other methods may be used. The obstructive device may remain as an implant, to maintain isolation and optionally allow subsequent aspiration, or the device may be removed at any time.

Abstract: The invention relates to oil and natural gas production and can be used for recovering hydrocarbons from hydrocarbon-bearing formations, for example, from oil-bearing formations, or, for example, from gas-condensate reservoirs. A method for recovery of hydrocarbons from a hydrocarbon-bearing formation, comprises: recovering a hydrocarbon-containing fluid through at least one production well, separating at least a part of a gaseous mixture from the fluid, injecting a gas through injection well. The separated gaseous mixture (all or a part of it) is combusted with air, which is used as oxidant, in a power plant, and, exhaust gases resulting from said combustion, which comprise nitrogen and carbon dioxide, are discharged from the power plant. Said air and the separated gaseous mixture are mixed and a gas-air mixture resulting from said mixing is compressed prior to said combustion, or the gas-air mixture is ignited during said compression. In the alternative embodiment of the invented method said air and the separated gaseous mixture are compressed and then are mixed to produce the gas-air mixture prior to said combustion, or the gas-air mixture is ignited, as soon as it is mixed. In both embodiments of the invented method the exhaust gases are compressed and used as an injection gas.

Abstract: Methods and reagents for obtaining simplified mixtures of peptides from a sample containing a number of peptides are disclosed. The methods entail the use of tagging moieties that include an amino-acid-specific reactive group (R). The tagging moieties "tag" peptides or proteins at specific amino acids (e.g., by reacting with an amino acid to form a covalent bond), ultimately allowing the isolation of peptides that contain those specific amino acids. Other methods entail the used of a reactive moiety (R<SUB>P</SUB>) that comprises a reagent that selectively interacts with selected proteins, either covalently or noncovalently. For example, R<SUB>P </SUB>can be a natural ligand for a receptor that is to be tagged or a protein that interacts with a second protein that is to be tagged. It can be an enzymatic substrate or other element of molecular recognition such as an antibody, ATP, GTP, NAD, NADP, NADH, NADPH, ubiquitin, or structural analogs thereof.

The apparatus treats textile materials using electrically conductive electrodes situated inside of the dielectric body and are situated on the same side of the textile material affected by the plasma. The electrically conductive electrodes are parallel with the portion of the surface of the dielectric body on which the electrical plasma is generated.
