Patent CA-2229454-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHEN CHANG-YOU
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1996-08-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to a product and process for producing polypeptides, such products including a circular RNA having a ribosome binding site that engages an eukaryotic ribosome and cells transformed with such circular RNA. Circular RNA is produced by linking the 5' and 3' ends of a desired linear RNA sequence, and such constructs can be used to produce desired amounts of polypeptides when such constructs are translated either $(in vitro) or in vivo. The present invention also relates to the use of circular RNA as a pharmaceutical agent to treat cells and animals involved in a disease.
Patent CA-2231847-A1 (CA)
Inventor: COLEMAN WILLIAM E JR
IPC: H01P5/18
Filed: 1996-09-13
Abstract: A stripline directional coupler (40) having a quarter-wave transmission line (54, 62) added either between the isolation port (52) of the coupler and the termination impedance (56) or between the input port of the coupler and the signal input (46) reduces the degradation of coupler directivity caused by impedance mismatch of the transmission lines (42, 44) with the source, load and/or termination impedances (56). With the transmission lines (42, 44) and additional quarter-wave transmission line (54, 62) formed on the same substrate material, coupler directivity is insensitive to the value of the characteristic impedance of the transmission lines (42, 44). This allows the use of less expensive substrate materials and manufacturing processes during stripline directional coupler construction.

Patent CA-2232772-A1 (CA)
Title: Completing telecommunications calls in a competitive local and toll environment
Inventor: KRISHT ALI H
IPC: H04Q3/66
Filed: 1995-08-14
Abstract: In an environment of competitive local and interexchange carriers, offering number portability between local earners serving a common region and between switches serving that region, each local carrier accesses a regional database to determine the identity of the carrier and switch serving a local customer.  In addition, interexchange carriers access a national database to determine the identity of the carrier and switch serving the customer specified by the number dialed by an originating customer. For customers requiring high reliability service, alternate carriers can be used to serve such customers in case the primary carrier is unavailable; the databases identify these alternate carriers. Advantageously, this arrangement allows a high degree of freedom of movement of customers between carriers and geographic relocation without requiring a number change.

Title: A method and device for monitoring a mobile telephone repeater
Inventor: PRAVITZ ANDERS
IPC: H04B17/40
Filed: 1997-02-19
Abstract: A method and device for monitoring a mobile telephone repeater are disclosed.  The repeater is of the kind comprising an uplink (100) and a downlink (200) between two antennas (1, 2), wherein the repeater receives, amplifies and retransmits signals between a base station and a mobile telephone. A stability test is performed automatically, whereby a possible continuous and strong signal, being caused either by an instability involving a positive feedback between the two antennas or by a disturbing signal, is detected, whereupon the amplifying gain is adjusted in response to the result of the stability test. The test criterion includes the step of checking whether the level of the input signal in the respective amplifier chain exceeds a threshold value during at least a major portion of a measuring period.

Abstract: A liquid coolant with bubbles contained therein for use in carrying out a cutting or grinding operation is continuously supplied to a portion to be worked, and the omnidirectional scatter of the bubbles impinging and bursting upon this portion and the entry of the accelerated splash into a clearance between the pressure contacting surfaces of a cutting tool and a work are promoted with the bubbles in the liquid coolant, which did not reach the portion to be worked, or which reached the portion but passed the same to enter a recovery flow passage, deposited on suspended extraneous matter in the liquid coolant, whereby the flotation of such extraneous matter is promoted.  The liquid coolant is discharged downward as an aggregation of particulate turbulent currents and generally as a helical current, whereby a cylindrical veil of liquid coolant which encloses a milling tool or a grinder, and which reaches at its lower end the surface of the work, is formed, at least a part of this helical current being directed vortically from the lower end of the cylindrical veil toward the central portion of the helical current along the surface of the work and thereby supplied to the portion to be worked which contacts the milling tool or grinder.

Title: Apparatus for exposure of printing plates using signals to offset image incline distortion
Inventor: OKAMURA YUICHI
IPC: H04N1/06
Filed: 1999-04-22
Abstract: A recorded image frame is distorted on the printing plate when image information or image data from a computer is recorded in the form of band strips, with a plurality of image elements dotted on each widthwise dotted line of the band, on a printing plate wound over a drum. The present invention permits an undistorted recording on the printing plate by an arrangement which includes a printing plate wound around a drum in the form of a right circular cylinder, an exposing means to record image information in the form of a band strip on the printing plate by means of light beam, a moving mechanism to move the exposing means in relation to the drum in the direction of the drum axis - by one band width per revolution of the drum - and a circuit to generate an incline distortion offsetting signal in a sawtoothed pattern having the cycle synchronized with that of the rotation of the drum with the initial writing position on the band as starting point. Under this arrangement, this incline distortion offsetting signal is applied to the exposing means to gradually move the light beam in the direction opposite to the moving direction of moving mechanism - by one band width per revolution of the drum. This process is repeated until the whole printing image is recorded.
