Abstract: The hoist system has triangular suspension bands that minimize sway and twisting during the lifting of a payload. The system includes three depending retractable and extensible triangular tension members (16) which provide three sets of opposed horizontal tensile forces aligned along three non-parallel lines. Each tension member comprises a flexible triangular band attached along one side to one of three rotatable spools (12) arranged at 60° to each other. The bands are attached near their vertices to a payload gripper assembly (24) which is raised or lowered as the bands are wound or unwound from the spools. The three triangular bands provide six horizontal force components which provide good lateral stability and torsional rigidity, thereby minimizing sway and twisting of the payload. The bands also provide good payload lifting strength.

Abstract: Multiple copy epitope immunoassays are produced by: (1) identifying nucleotide sequences that encode a plurality of different epitopes; (2) placing the nucleotide sequences into an expression cassette wherein at least two copies of a sequence coding for the same epitope, preferably from different strains of a pathogen, are placed in the cassette; (3) transforming a suitable host with the cassette in order to express the sequences encoding the epitopes; (4) purifying the expressed epitopes; and (5) coating the epitopes on a surface of a substrate. The purified epitopes are encompassed by the general structural formula (A)x-(B)y-(C)z which represents a linear amino acid sequence, B is an amino acid sequence of an epitope or cluster of epitopes and each B contains at least five and not more than 1,000 amino acids, y is an integer of 2 or more, A and C are each independently an amino acid sequence of an epitope or cluster of epitopes not adjacent to B in nature and x and z are each independently an integer of 0 or more wherein at least one of x and z is 1 or more. The epitopes of the invention are more soluble than and are therefore more easily purified than conventional epitopes. Further, the presence of repeating epitope sequences (repeating at least B in the same linear amino acid sequence from different strains of a pathogen) increases the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Repeated epitope sequences in a single linear antigen also decreases masking problems and makes it possible to include a greater number of epitopes on a unit area of substrate thereby improving sensitivity in the detection of antibodies.

Abstract: Symbol 102 that is spread with the only short
spreading code and inserted in synchronism with a long
spreading code is specified by detecting the correlation
with only the short spreading code. Next, another short
spreading code indicative of a timing of reverse and
forward link switching is specified, where the short
spreading code is multiplexed at the same position as that
of the detected symbol. The detection of the symbols
spread with only these spreading codes enables to acquire
synchronization of the long spreading code,
synchronization of switching of reverse and forward links,
and synchronization of a transmission frame. It is
thereby possible to reduce synchronization acquisition
time for the long spreading and an easy planning of base
station locations without decreasing the frequency
utilization efficiency.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electro-optic sampling
oscilloscope. The delay circuit (4) in the electro-optic sampling oscilloscope
comprises a delay time detecting circuit (11), a regulation time determining
circuit (12), a counter circuit (13) and a delay regulating circuit (14). The
delay time detecting circuit (11) detects in the trigger signal a value

generating circuit. The regulation time determining circuit (12) determines
a regulation time based on the value detected by the delay time detecting
circuit (11) so that the regulation time is an integer multiple of the reference
clock. The counter circuit (13) is triggered by the trigger signal to count the
reference clock through a specific value. The delay regulating circuit (14)
employs a signal related to the regulation time from the regulation time
determining circuit (12), to delay the signal output from the counter circuit
(13) by the regulation time.

Abstract: The method involves forming blocks with a predefined number of signal sampling values from the signal in digital form. The signal power is determined for each block and used for recursive determination of a power estimate. The power estimate is fed to a threshold comparator and the gain changed if the estimate exceeds or falls below defined threshold values. Two power estimates are derived, of which one is used for high gain regulation and the other for low gain regulation. An Independent claim is also included for and arrangement for regulating the gain in a signal processing system.
