Title: Apparatus and method of determining a precoding matrix in a multi- input multi-output (mimo) system
Inventor: SARKAR SANDIP
IPC: H04B7/04
Filed: 2008-08-15
Granted: 2013-10-15
Abstract: Techniques for sending multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmissions in wireless communication systems are described. In one design, a transmitter sends a first reference signal via a first link, e.g., a cell-specific reference signal via the downlink. The transmitter receives channel quality indicator (CQI) information determined by a receiver based on the first reference signal. The transmitter also receives a second reference signal from the receiver via a second link, e.g., a sounding reference signal via the uplink. The transmitter obtains at least one MIMO channel matrix for the first link based on the second reference signal. The transmitter determines at least one precoding matrix based on the at least one MIMO channel matrix, e.g., in accordance with ideal eigen-beamforming or pseudo eigen-beamforming. The transmitter then sends a data transmission to the receiver based on the at least one precoding matrix and the CQI information.

Abstract: The invention provides a rotational atherectomy device having, in various embodiments, a flexible, elongated, rotatable drive shaft with at least one flexible or inflexible eccentric enlarged abrading and cutting head attached thereto which comprises an abrasive surface. When placed against stenotic tissue and rotated at high speed, the eccentric nature of the abrading and cutting head moves along an orbital path, opening the lesion to a diameter larger than the resting diameter of the enlarged abrading and cutting head. Preferably the abrading and cutting head has a center of mass spaced radially from the rotational axis of the drive shaft, facilitating the ability of the device to travel along an orbital path. The abrading and cutting head comprises proximal and/or distal radiused surfaces that facilitate cutting difficult stenosis material while minimizing trauma to the vessel.

Abstract: In a so-called GTL process for producing liquid hydrocarbons containing fuel oil by producing synthesis gas from natural gas, subsequently producing Fischer-Tropsch oil from the obtained synthesis gas by way of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and upgrading the produced Fischer-Tropsch oil, the synthesis gas produced from a synthesis gas production step is partly branched at a stage prior to getting to a Fischer-Tropsch oil production step and high-purity hydrogen is separated and produced from the synthesis gas entering the branch line. All the separated high-purity hydrogen is supplied to an upgrading reaction step and consumed as hydrogen for an upgrading reaction. Additionally, the synthesis gas entering the branch line is subjected to a water gas shift reaction to raise the hydrogen concentration before the step of separating and producing high-purity hydrogen and the residual gas left after the separation may be circulated to the synthesis gas production step as raw material for producing synthesis gas.
