Title: Individual channel temporal envelope shaping for binaural cue coding schemes and the like
Inventor: DISCH SASCHA
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 2005-09-07
Granted: 2008-10-30
Abstract: At an audio encoder, cue codes are generated for one or more audio channels, wherein an envelope cue code is generated by characterizing a temporal envelope in an audio channel. At an audio decoder, E transmitted audio channel(s) are decoded to generate C playback audio channels, where C>E≧1. Received cue codes include an envelope cue code corresponding to a characterized temporal envelope of an audio channel corresponding to the transmitted channel(s). One or more transmitted channel(s) are upmixed to generate one or more upmixed channels. One or more playback channels are synthesized by applying the cue codes to the one or more upmixed channels, wherein the envelope cue code is applied to an upmixed channel or a synthesized signal to adjust a temporal envelope of the synthesized signal based on the characterized temporal envelope such that the adjusted temporal envelope substantially matches the characterized temporal envelope.

Title: DNA transfection system for the generation of infectious influenza virus
Inventor: HOFFMANN ERICH
IPC: A61P31/16
Filed: 2006-10-12
Granted: 2010-04-29
Abstract: The present invention is based on the development of a dual promoter system (preferably a RNA pol I -pol II system) for the efficient intracellular synthesis of viral RNA. The resultant minimal plasmid-based system may be used to synthesize any RNA virus, preferably viruses with a negative single stranded RNA genome. The viral product of the system is produced when the plasmids of the system are introduced into a suitable host cell. One application of the system is production of attenuated, reassortant influenza viruses for use as antigens in vaccines. The reassortant viruses generated by cotransfection of plasmids may comprise genes encoding the surface glycoproteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase from an influenza virus currently infecting the population and the internal genes from an attenuated influenza virus. An advantageous property of the present invention is its versatility; the system may be quickly and easily adapted to synthesize an attenuated version of any RNA virus. Attenuated or inactivated RNA viruses produced by the present invention may be administered to a patient in need of vaccination by any of several routes including intranasally or intramuscularly.

Title: Persistent interference mitigation in a wireless communication system
Inventor: AAMOD KHANDEKAR
IPC: H04W28/06
Filed: 2008-11-10
Granted: 2012-01-12
Abstract: Techniques for transmitting data with persistent interference mitigation in a wireless communication system are described. A station (e.g., a base station or a terminal) may observe high interference and may send a request to reduce interference to interfering stations. The request may be valid for a time period covering multiple response periods. Each interfering station may grant or dismiss the request in each response period, may dismiss the request by transmitting at full power, and may grant the request by transmitting at lower than full power. The station may receive a response from each interfering station indicating grant or dismissal of the request by that interfering station in each response period. The station may estimate SINR based on the response received from each interfering station and may exchange data with another station based on the estimated SINR. Persistent interference mitigation may reduce signaling overhead and improve resource utilization and performance.

Granted: 2015-05-28
Abstract: The disclosed invention varies the width of the energy pulses with constant frequency and constant amplitude to regulate the amount of energy transferred from an energy transmitting device placed outside a patient to an energy receiver inside the patient. The pulse width is achieved with a modulation technique, PWMT, to control the amount of energy transferred from the external energy transmitting coil in the system to the implanted receiver. The PWMT is used to digitally vary the amount of power from the power amplifier that drives the transmitting coil. Compared to previous analog systems a PWM system is a great deal more efficient and can easily be controlled from a digital domain system such as a microprocessor.
