Abstract: Compounds of general structural formula (I) are shown to have AMPA  receptor enhancing properties. The compounds are useful for such therapeutic purposes as facilitating the learning of behaviors dependent upon AMPA  receptors, and in treating conditions, such as memory impairment, in which AMPA  receptors, or synapses utilizing these receptors, are reduced in numbers or efficiency. They may also be used to enhance excitatory synaptic activity in order to restore an imbalance between brain subregions, as in treatment of schizophrenia or schizophreniform behavior.

Abstract: Inflatable clothing that is designed for comfort. Inflatable, waterproof air capsules are incorporated into clothing to cushion various parts of the user's body while on hard, cold or wet surfaces or rough terrain. The inflatable air capsules are comprised of durable, impermeable fabric and are inflated, deflated and pressure adjusted by the user by means of an inflation and deflation valve. Inflatable air capsules may be used to cushion any part of the body. For example: an inflatable air capsule designed into the lower, back panel of a coat or vest will provide people such as sportsmen, campers, sports fans, the elderly or frail, and people who live or work in cold or wet climates with a waterproof, cushioned seat within their garment.  Inflatable capsules may be designed into clothing to cushion the knees, shins, calves, ankles, hips, wrists, elbows, crotch, buttocks, back, head or neck or any other parts of the body. Inflatable clothing lends itself to a wide range of design options for various types of activities and can be tailored to suit the specific needs of the user.

Title: Calibration of a n-port receiver
Inventor: KRUPEZEVIC DRAGAN
IPC: H04L27/22
Filed: 2000-06-07
Abstract: A technique for calibrating a N-port receiver, such as for example a 5- or 6-port receiver is proposed. The N-port receiver comprises a first input for a RF  signal to be detected, a second input for a RF signal originating from a local oscillator and N-2 output terminals. Calibrating signals are generated on the basis of the RF signal supplied by the local oscillator. The calibration signals are fed to the first input and/or second input of the N-port receiver. Calibration coefficients are calculated on the basis of the output signals generated by the N-port receiver in response to the feeding of the calibration signals. The calibration signals are unmodulated signals and are only processed by means of a passive RF circuitry in the calibration device. The solutions according to the present invention allow a simple calibration of N-port receivers, which can be used as IQ demodulators or converters. Thereby a local oscillator is used as a RF source for the calibration.
