IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 1996-09-24
Abstract: The transmission method involves using a Viterbi decoder which operates on the basis of a trellis diagram is used to further process the sampled signal. The decoder uses several feedback filters (8,9) to determine branch metrics and path metrics in the trellis diagram. The number of filters used depends on the number of states in the trellis diagram. The filters have filter taps arranged in series according to the delayed decision feedback sequence estimation algorithm. To determine the branch metrics in the trellis diagram separate first feedback filters are used only up to a predetermined number of symbol intervals in the diagram or up to a predetermined length of filter for all states in the diagram. For the further symbol intervals those symbols of the path with the smallest path metric are fed back to the end of the first feedback filter.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for authenticating documents, at least one small area (22) on a document (12) being tested is sensed by a spectroscope (26), and the light intensity at a plurality (e.g. 50) of spectral points is measured by a photodiode array (30). The resulting signals are digitized in an analog-to-digital converter (38) and the resulting data is stored. This data is then analyzed by discriminant analysis, whereby the intensity values treated as components of a vector are multiplied by one or more sets of weighting coefficients (discriminant functions) to provide a set of discriminant function values. A distance measurement between this set of values and the centroid of a corresponding set of values for genuine documents is compared with a threshold value to determine the authenticity of the document (12).

Abstract: Conjugates between a minor groove binding molecule, such as the trimer of 1,2-dihydro-(3H)-pyrrolo[3,2-e]indole-7-carboxylate (CDPI3), and an oligonucleotide form unusually stable hybrids with complementary target sequences, in which the tethered CDPI3 group resides in the minor groove of the duplex. These conjugates can be used as probes and primers. Due to their unusually high binding affinity, conjugates as short as 8-mers can be used as amplification primers with high specificity and efficiency. MGB conjugation also increases the discriminatory power of short oligonucleotides, providing enhanced detection of nucleotide sequence mismatches by short oligonucleotides. The MGB-conjugated probes and primers described herein facilitate various analytic and diagnostic procedures, such as amplification reactions, PCR, detection of single-nucleotide polymorphisms, gene hunting, differential display, fluorescence energy transfer, hydrolyzable probe assays and others; by allowing the use of shorter oligonucleotides, which have higher specificity and better discriminatory power.

Abstract: An enhanced, deferred messaging service ensures a message is received
even when an answering machine is connected to a line and receives the call. In
such a case, the service notes the number of rings  n  necessary to activate the
recipient's answering machine. The service then resumes redialing and lets the
phone ring  n  - 1 times for each attempted call until either the phone is answered or a
time-out occurs. If the recipient's answering machine, however, is in toll-saver
mode, then the answering machine may answer a second time in less than  n  - 1
rings. If the toll-saver feature is activated, then the service notes the number of rings
 m  which caused the answering machine to be reached in toll-saver mode. The service
then resumes redialing and lets the phone ring  m  - 1 times for each attempted call
until either the phone is picked up or a time-out occurs. Thus, even after leaving a
message on an answering machine, the service will attempt to reach a human.
