Abstract: A method for channel estimation includes receiving data at a number of frequency intervals in a frequency band over a number of first time intervals. A first set of channel estimates is determined (152) for each pilot symbol (106) within the data over a second time interval comprising at least one first time interval, and time-direction interpolation (154) is performed to determine a second set of channel estimates for a number of data portions in a frequency interval using the first set of channel estimates. The frequency interval comprises a data portion comprising a pilot symbol (106). Frequency-direction interpolation (156) is performed to determine a third set of channel estimates for each first time interval. The time-direction interpolation (154) and the frequency-direction interpolation (156) can be performed in reverse order with the channel estimates generated by the frequency-direction interpolation (156) being used as inputs for time-direction interpolation (154).

IPC: G01N33/50

Abstract: The present invention is based on two important experimental observations: 
The first observation is that increased extracellular concentrations of ionized calcium are found in erosive arthritis and stimulate monocytic IL-1β release via the CaSR and GPRC6A. Simultaneous stimulation of monocytes with calcium ions and selected TLR ligands results in a 20-fold increased IL1β response compared to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) alone. During the crosstalk between GPCR and TLR signaling, phospholipase C is activated, which triggers calcium dependent potassium channels, resulting in potassium efflux, caspase-1 activation and IL-1β release. The amplification of IL1β secretion at sites of locally increased calcium ion concentrations aggravates rheumatoid arthritis. 
     The second important observation is that both CaSR and GPRC6A, are highly expressed in the synovial membrane of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, but expression of GPRC6A, but not of CaSR, is lower in patients with osteoarthritis (s.  Fig 1 ). The latter is generally not accompanied by inflammation. Thus, expression of GPRC6A appears to be upregulated in chronic inflammatory situations. 
     Based on these experimental observations the invention provides a method and compositions for the identification of agents that have a potential effect against chronic inflammatory conditions, in particular erosive arthritis and atherosclerosis.
