Patent EP-1854421-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CROPPER MICHAEL S
IPC: A61B17/34
Filed: 2007-05-04
Abstract: Devices are provided for performing translumenal (e.g., transoral and transanal) procedures. In general, the devices utilize a trocar assembly or trocar end cap that can facilitate insertion of an endoscope through tissue. In one embodiment, a flexible trocar assembly (10) is provided and includes an obturator (20) having an inner lumen formed therethrough for receiving an endoscope therein, and a distal end that is adapted to facilitate insertion of the endoscope through tissue and that is adapted to facilitate viewing therethrough. The trocar assembly can also include a trocar sleeve (30) that is disposable over the obturator. In use, once the trocar assembly is inserted through tissue, the trocar sleeve can function as a placeholder, allowing the endoscope and obturator to be removed. The endoscope can then be removed from within the obturator and reinserted through the trocar sleeve for use in performing various other procedures. In other embodiments, rather than using a trocar that houses the endoscope, an end cap can be removably disposed over a distal end of the endoscope. The present application also provides devices for shielding an endoscope during insertion through a body lumen, and in particular for preventing contact between the endoscope (or trocar sleeve) and the body lumen, thus preventing bacteria from being carried into a body cavity.

Title: Analyse transitoire de perte de paquets en file d'attente dans un réseau de diffusion
Inventor: JIANG WENYU
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2007-08-16
Abstract: Dans la présente invention, un récepteur surveillant les transmissions d'un dispositif de traitement de données par paquets, tel qu'un point d'accès sans fil, analyse les transmissions surveillées afin d'estimer la probabilité qu'un ou plusieurs paquets soient perdus en raison d'un dépassement de tampon au niveau du dispositif de traitement. Les probabilités de perte peuvent être estimées pour des paquets individuels soumis à des changements rapides dans les conditions de communication. Une indication de la probabilité de perte estimée peut être utilisée pour adapter des paramètres de correction d'erreurs sans circuit de retour (FEC) qui sont utilisés pour générer les paquets. Cette opération permet d'augmenter la fiabilité de l'acheminement des données vers un récepteur et, par la même occasion, d'optimiser l'utilisation de la bande passante de la voie de communication.

Abstract: A powering circuit of an AC-DC converter for converting a high AC input voltage (10) into a low DC output voltage (V out ) to provide a load voltage in a stable DC bias range, includes a rectifier (20), a sensing circuit, a control switching circuit, and a voltage regulating capacitor (60). The rectifier has a primary side coupled to an AC power supply and a secondary side for outputting a DC power supply. The sensing circuit compares the AC input voltage with a preset reference voltage, and turns on a second switch in the control switching circuit when the AC input voltage is lower than the reference voltage, thereby providing a low DC output voltage. The control switching circuit sustains the DC output voltage in a stable DC bias range. Therefore, in addition to reducing the power consumption of the second switch, this circuit structure is simple and can achieve the purpose of circuit integration.
