Abstract: A method of locating a billing area associated with a cell phone call initiated in an airborne cellular communications system (10) enables service providers to more accurately identify system user locations within the system's area of coverage. In operation, propagation delay and beam number location of an initiated call are identified to determine a current handset radial beam location. The propagation delay is then mapped to a stored closest corresponding radial geographic billing location, and the call is then associated with the closest corresponding radial geographic billing location. Additional system accuracy may be provided by determining azimuthal position within a beam footprint (116Ö) by determining a handoff location of a signal from a first beam to a second beam, and then mapping handoff information to a closest corresponding azimuthal geographic billing location. Both the closest corresponding radial and azimuthal geographic billing locations are then used to identify a current handset location. Such a system user location technique also enables an airborne system to comply with FCC E911 caller location requirements. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention is an improved planar waveguide device comprising a plurality of optical waveguides and one or more crossover regions where two waveguides intersect at an angle. In accordance with the invention, loss and crosstalk produced by the crossover are reduced by segmenting the waveguides across the region of intersection. Advantageously, the segments are also enlarged in width (as compared to transmission regions of the waveguide remote from the crossover) and offset with respect to the longitudinal axis of the waveguide. In regions where the segments intersect, they merge into a complex segment having a shape corresponding to the periphery of the segment intersection. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel apparatus to grow cells where the cultivation chamber (1) is partially filled with liquid cultivation medium and cells. Mixing and aeration is achieved by generating intermittently one single large gas bubble (6) at the bottom of the column bioreactor, the single large bubble width representing from 50 to 99% of the tank width, preferably from 60 to 99%, more preferably 98.5%. The culture medium flows out as a film between the large bubble and the inner wall of the bioreactor. This rising bubble allows mixing and aeration of the bulk. As the design of the invention is very simple, it is possible to manufacture it with flexible plastic material and use the apparatus as a disposable system. Moreover, such a mixing/aeration principle minimizes cell damages usually due to shear stress and small bubbles and allows easy and efficient scale-up from small scale to a larger one. Such a large-scale, efficient and disposable culture system can largely reduce production costs.

Abstract: The invention is directed to counting techniques for counting biological agents on a biological growth plate or similar medium. In order to automate the counting of biological agents, a biological growth plate is inserted into a biological scanning unit. Upon insertion of the biological growth plate, the biological scanning unit generates an image of the plate. Then, the amount of biological agents that appear in the image, such as a number of bacteria colonies, can be counted or otherwise determined using image processing and analysis routines performed either by the scanning unit or an external computing device, such as a desktop computer, workstation or the like. A variety of counting rules are described herein that can be used to improve the accuracy of automated counts of biological agents on a biological growth plate.
