Abstract: A flexible container is provided for the storage and administration of medical solutions. The container incorporates a transparent front sheet made from a planar layer of a polymer and an opposing rear sheet. The rear sheet is made from a planar laminate layer. The front and rear sheets are sealed together along a common peripheral edge to form a volume enclosure. The volume enclosure is constructed of materials having high oxygen and moisture barrier properties which allows the container thermoplastic to be stored for extended periods of time without degrading the contents. The volume enclosure is then inflated with a pressurized gas to permanently stretch the front and rear sheets outwardly and to thereby increase the volume capacity of the container. An alternative embodiment of the container incorporates multiple compartments, separated by peelable seals, for containing a diluent and a medicament. The seals are ruptured by manipulation of the container to thereby mix the contents together for delivery through standard IV arrangement to a patient.

Abstract: This proposal describes an optimized synchronization (SYNCH) symbol sequence to be
used in transmission systems, which are currently under standardization. The
synchronization symbol is constructed using specially designed OFDM (orthogonal
frequency division multiplexing) symbols with an optimized sequence, which is mapped
onto the modulated subcarriers. The resulting synchronization symbol consists of
several repetitions in the time domain. Using the proposed sequence the resulting
synchronization symbol achieves a high timing detection and frequency offset
estimation accuracy. Furthermore the burst is optimized to achieve a very low envelope
fluctuation (low Peak-to-Average Power Ratio) and a very low dynamic range to reduce
complexity on the receiver and to save time and frequency acquisition time in the
receiver. The proposed sequence is furthermore optimized with respect to all other
synchronization symbols that are used to construct the synchronization and training
preambles for the BCCH-DLCHs.

Abstract: A method of measuring the difference in the volumetric flow rate due to a leak between one
pressure and at least one other pressure, after compensation has been made for thermally
induced changes in the volume of liquid product in a pressurized pipeline system, comprises the
steps of pressurizing the pipeline system (110) to a first pressure level, and measuring those
changes in volume of product in the pipeline system that occur when the pressure is maintained
at an approximately constant pressure over a first measurement period; pressurizing the
pipeline system (110) to at least a second pressure level, and measuring those changes in
volume of product in the pipeline system that occur when the pressure is maintained at an
approximately constant pressure over at least a second measurement period; and computing
the difference in the temperature compensated volume rate between one pressure and at least
one other pressure from the measured volume data at the pressures, including a correction for
the thermally induced non-linear changes of volume between the measurement periods.

Filed: 1999-05-21
Abstract: A glaze layer (2d) formed on the surface an alumina-based insulator (2) of a resistor spark
plug (100) contains SiO 2  (18-35% by weight), B 2 O 3  (25-40% by weight), ZnO (10-25% by
weight), BaO (7-20% by weight), Na 2 O (3-9% by weight), and K 2 O (3-9% by weight).
Since the difference between the coefficient of linear expansion of the glaze and that of the
alumina-based insulating material is relatively small, the glaze layer (2d) is less susceptible
to cracks and the like. Also, since the glaze has a softening point lower than that of
conventional lead-silicate-glass-based glaze, the glost-firing temperature can be as low as
800-950°C. Therefore, even in the case where glost firing is performed concurrently with
a glass sealing step, a center electrode (3) and a terminal metal piece (13) are less
susceptible to oxidation. Further, even though the content of the alkali metal component is
high, a good insulating performance is obtained, so that excellent flashover resistance is
attained.

Abstract: An optical adapter [100] includes a pair of cylindrical ferrules [121, 122],
each containing an optical fiber disposed along its central axis [101-101]. The
ferrules are aligned with their central axes being collinear. Moreover, the ferrules
are captured within a plastic housing that comprises a plug member [110] and a
jack member [140]. These members interlock with each other to form an adapter
that can be used, for example, for attenuating an optical signal or for
interconnecting two ferrules having different diameters. Preferably, the ferrules are
identical to each other. Each ferrule includes an optical fiber that is disposed in a
bore, which extends along the central axis of the ferrule between its opposite ends,
and each ferrule has an end face [126] that is angled at about 82 degrees with
respect to the central axis. In one embodiment, the angled end faces of the ferrules
are in direct contact with each other and attenuation is determined by the optical
path length between the centers of the angled end faces, which is a function of the
axial rotation of the ferrules with respect to each other. In another embodiment, the
angled end faces of the ferrules are in contact with opposite sides of a spacer [170]
so that attenuation is a function of the spacer's thickness and the axial rotation of
the ferrules with respect to each other. Such a design enables precision optical
attenuators to be fabricated. Wavelength division multiplexing systems are
improved by the use of such precision optical attenuators at the inputs of the
multiplexer [200] and/or the outputs of the demultiplexer [500].
