Abstract: A system and method for enabling multiple transmitters (400) to share a single code division multiplexed (CDM) or code division multiple access (CDMA) channel using orthogonal waveforms. A set of orthogonal channelizing codes Wi(t) is generated, and each transmitter (400) is allocated orthogonal channelizing codes and pseudonoise polynomials in a predetermined manner. The transmitters channelize each user signal using an orthogonal channelizing code Wi(t), and spread each user signal using a pseudonoise (PN) spreading code. Each transmitter employs the same PN spreading codes and time offsets. Additionally, no one orthogonal channelizing code is assigned to more than one transmitter during the time period they are sharing a CDM channel. The spread signals are summed at each transmitter (404) prior to transmission as a composite signal. The offsets are time-precorrected (406, 510) to ensure time alignment at the receivers. The frequencies of the signals are precorrected (408, 512) to ensure frequency alignment at the receivers.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des polymères biodégradables hydrophobes dont au moins une surface a été rendue hydrophobe par l'adhésion d'au moins une couche d'un polymère hydrophile. Cette couche de polymère hydrophile est réticulée avec la surface de la substance biodégradable au moyen d'un réticulant ou d'une structure biodégradable. En l'occurrence, des espèces bioactives sont immobilisées sur des groupes chimiquement fonctionnels des composants de la première couche ou sur des groupes chimiquement fonctionnels du réticulant qui ne sont pas entrés en réaction. De façon facultative, les espèces bioactives peuvent être immobilisées par des liaisons chimiquement fonctionnelles et biodégradables. On obtient ainsi une construction implantable immobilisant des espèces bioactives dont les composants structurels sont tous sujets à dégradation dans l'organisme du receveur.

Abstract: A method and apparatus to provide access to a dispatch system is disclosed. A communications manager (40) grants an exclusive system talker privilege to one remote unit (10) in the system at a time. After a remote unit (10) requests and is designated as the exclusive system talker, no other remote unit (20, 22) may transmit for a first pre-determined amount of time. After the first pre-determined time has elapsed, any other remote unit (20, 22) may request the exclusive system talker privilege and become the exclusive system talker. The exclusive system talker privilege is revoked by the communications manager (40) to any remote unit who retains the exclusive system talker privilege for more than a second pre-determined amount of time. The exclusive system talker privilege is also revoked upon the release of a push-to-talk button on a remote unit (10). Furthermore, a base station (44) in communication with a remote unit (10) designated as the exclusive system talker will generate a surrogate relinquishment request to the communications manager (40) if the exclusive system talker travels outside the coverage area of the system, loses power, or is destroyed.

Abstract: Fluorinated solid acids and supported fluorinated solid acids are used as catalysts for the polymerization of a feed stream containing at least one of pure monomoer, C5 monomers, and C9 monomers to produce hydrocarbon resins. Freely-associated water may be removed from the fluorinated solid acid catalyst and/or supported fluorinated solid acid catalyst prior to use. Resins with softening points (Ring and Ball) in the range of about 5 °C to 170 °C can be prepared. These catalysts offer advantages over the traditional Friedel-Crafts polymerization catalysts since the acid sites are an integral part of the solid. The fluorinated solid acid catalysts and supported fluorinated solid acid catalysts are relatively nonhazardous, reusable catalysts which eliminate or at least reduce contamination of the resulting resin products with acid residues or by-products.

Abstract: An optical amplifier device intended for WDM light signals comprises a preamplifier (3) and a power amplifier (11) of the optical fiber amplifier type, which are connected in series and have gain curves dependent on the wavelength. A controllable attenuator (5) is connected between the amplifiers (3 and 11) and is controlled by a control device (7). The signal input to the preamplifier (3) has a low power and is amplified to provide an output signal where the signals of the input channels have been amplified with different gains. The input signal of the power amplifier (11) then has a larger power resulting in a gain characteristic different from that of the preamplifier (3). By adapting the attenuation of the attenuator (5) for variations in the input signal the gain characteristic of the power amplifier (11) can be set so that the signal output from the amplifier device has a spectral dependence that is the same as the original spectral dependence obtained without variations. Also, the same spectral dependence can be maintained when the pump light power of the power amplifier is changed and then the total amplifier gain is changed, by adapting the attenuation of the attenuator (5) so that the gain of the power amplifier is not changed. In the amplifier the lower possible noise from the preamplifier stage is added to the input signal and the full output power is always available from the power amplifier. If the input signal is e.g. increased the SNR of the signals passing through the amplifier is correspondingly improved. This improves the performance of an optical network in which the amplifier is used.

Abstract: It has been discovered microparticles formed from natural or synthetic polymer with thicker walls have significantly enhanced echogenicity as compared with microparticles having thinner walls. The effect of wall thickness has been determined experimentally as well as inserted into a formula for use in predicting the optimum conditions. In the preferred embodiment, the polymers are synthetic biodegradable polymers and the wall thickness is between about 100 and 660 nm, although wall thicknesses from about 20 nm to in excess of 500 nm can be used. The microparticles are manufactured with a diameter suitable for the targeted tissue to be imaged, for example, with a diameter of between 0.5 and 8 microns for intravascular administration, and a diameter of between 0.5 and 5 mm for oral administration for imaging of the gastrointestinal tract or other lumens. Preferred polymers are polyhydroxy acids such as polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid, polylactide or polyglycolide, most preferably conjugated to polyethylene glycol or other materials inhibiting uptake by the reticuloendothelial system (RES). The microspheres may be used in a variety of ultrasound imaging applications including cardiology applications, blood perfusion applications as well as for organ and peripheral vein imaging.

Afin de déterminer la capacité des stations de base, il s'agit tout d'abord de déterminer quelles sont les stations de base candidates, ces stations étant sélectionnées en fonction d'un emplacement de fonctionnement de l'unité mobile. Parmi les stations de base candidates figurent à la fois les stations de base appartenant à la première pluralité de stations de base et à la seconde pluralité de stations de base pour autant que ces stations puissent desservir l'unité mobile au niveau de son emplacement de fonctionnement courant. Une fois que les stations de base candidates sont déterminées, des demandes de capacité leur sont adressées. Les stations de base renvoient alors des réponses de capacité. En fonction des réponses reçues, l'unité mobile est affectée à l'une au moins des stations de base de la première pluralité de stations de base ou de la seconde pluralité de stations de base. Le fonctionnement peut être entrepris lors de l'établissement ou de l'exécution d'un appel.
