Title: Method for generating clock corrections for a wide-area or global differential gps system
Inventor: SHARPE RICHARD T
IPC: G01S19/48
Filed: 2004-07-20
Abstract: A method for generating satellite clock corrections for a WADGPS network computes satellite dock corrections after removing other substantial error components. Errors caused by the ionospheric refraction effects are removed from GPS measurements taken at reference stations using dual-frequency GPS  measurements. The multipath noise are removed by smoothing of GPS pseudorange code measurements with carrier-phase measurements. The tropospheric refraction effect can be largely removed by modeling, and if desired, can be improved by the use of small stochastic adjustments included in the computation of the clock correction. After removing the above error factors, satellite clock corrections are computed for individual reference stations, and an average clock correction is formed for each of a plurality of satellites by taking an average or weighted average of the satellite clock corrections over reference stations to which the satellite is visible.

Title: Electro-adhesive tissue manipulator
Inventor: PALANKER DANIEL V
IPC: A61B18/14
Filed: 2004-06-18
Abstract: An electro-adhesive tissue manipulator capable of manipulating tissue with a single conducting element is provided. The manipulator includes a conducting element, an electrical means and a control means capable of generating a first and a second pulse on demand. The first pulse generates an adhesive state between the conducting element and the tissue layer strong enough to manipulate the tissue layer. The second pulse, which has higher pulse energy than the first pulse, generates a non-adhesive state to detach the adhered tissue layer from the conducting element. The electro-adhesive device could be combined with a medical instrument to enhance the capabilities of the medical instrument so that it can manipulate tissue. The advantage of the present invention, in contrast to mechanical tools, is that tissue can be manipulated with a single tip of a conducting element, without folding and piercing of the tissue, thus avoiding damage to the tissue.
