Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble d'antennes permettant d'amplifier un signal reçu et de retransmettre ce même signal amplifié, les antennes étant situées directement sur un circuit intégré. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, les antennes sont des antennes de correction directionnelles qui sont positionnées aux différents côtés du circuit intégré. Ce dernier fonctionne comme un isolateur entre les deux antennes. En plaçant les antennes directement sur le circuit intégré, on évite d'avoir recours à des lignes entre l'antenne et l'amplificateur, ce qui en retour réduit considérablement l'atténuation qui a lieu dans les répéteurs classiques et analogues.

Title: Medicament cartridge and injection device
Inventor: LESCH PAUL R JR
IPC: A61M5/31
Filed: 2000-10-20
Abstract: The present invention discloses a medicament cartridge for an injection device, such as a syringe or a jet injector. The medicament cartridge according to the present invention includes a tube having a lumen, a needle operatively associated with an end of the tube and having a piercing end extending into the lumen, a second stopper located within the lumen near the other end of the tube and moveable within the lumen, and a first stopper located within the lumen, covering the piercing end of the needle, and moveable within the lumen. Firing the injection device to commence an injection may move the second stopper toward the needle, which compresses medicament located in the lumen between the first stopper and the second stopper. The compression of the medicament moves the first stopper into contact with the piercing end of the needle so that the piercing end pierces the first stopper to thereby create a fluid pathway for the medicament through the needle. Other methods of piercing the first stopper are anticipated as a means of activating the injection device. The disclosed medicament cartridge can be safely and aseptically manufactured and filled during assembly and, once manufactured and filled, eliminates contact between the medicament and the needle during storage.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to systems and methods for measuring the interference for computation of signal to interference ratio (SIR) in DSSS CDMA cellular communication systems, by selectively using a transmission gap in one of the control channels. A specific example embodiment is directed to the computation of the SIR in a system, such as the 3GPP system, where PCCPCH data is multiplexed with SCH data in the downlink from the base station. At the mobile unit, once the PCCPCH is located in the received communication signal, the receiver measures the traffic interference in a chip period in the PCCPCH channel that corresponds to an interval where there is a transmission gap in the PCCPCH data. This gap is provided in the 3GPP system for permit the transmission of primary and secondary SCH data. The SIR is readily determined using the measured interference in the transmission gap.

IPC: G06F15/78
Filed: 2001-11-12
Abstract: A digital signal processing chip having a multiple
processor cores with corresponding processor subsystems, a
shared component, and a clock tree, is disclosed herein. A
clock tree (131) distributes clock signals to the processor
cores and the shared component. The clock tree (131) can be
configured to disable one or more of the processor cores and
the shared component by blocking the corresponding clock
signal. This may advantageously conserve power. However,
the clock tree (131) is configured to preserve the clock
signal to the shared component as long as at least one of
the processor cores has not disabled the shared component.
That is, to block the clock signal to the shared component,
each of the processor cores must disable the shared
component. The shared component may, for example, be a
shared program memory or an arbiter for an external
input/output port. The clock tree may include a register
and a series of clock gates (306, 308, 310, 312, 314, 316,
318, 320, 322, 324). Each of the clock gates (306, 308,
310, 312, 314, 316, 318, 320) blocks the clock signal (INT.
CLK) when a gate signal is de-asserted. The gate signals
(326) are generated from enablement bits in the register.
The clock signal for the shared component is gated by a
clock gate (312, 322; 314, 324) that blocks the clock signal
only if each of the processor cores have disabled their
enablement bit for the shared component.

Abstract: An image rendering system, for generating discrete tone image data representing a continuous-tone image for rendering by a rendering device, the image rendering system includes a stochastic threshold array generating arrangement and an image data processing section. The stochastic threshold array generating arrangement generates a plurality of stochastic threshold arrays from a random seed pattern that have been subsequently optimized to reduce image artifacts in the rendering of tones. Each pattern is optimized to reflect (i) a selected trade-off between grain and possible mottle in the rendered image, (ii) distortions introduced by the rendering device in rendering an image defined by the pattern and an observer in viewing the image, and (iii) boundary effects so that the paterns, when tiled together, have optimal visual characteristics proximate their respective edges. The image data processing section processes the continuous tone image data in relation to the stochastic threshold arrays generated by the stochastic threshold array generating arrangement. The image data processing section may be used to either randomly tile, or tile in an ordered way, the stochastic threshold arrays over the continuous-tone image data and generates the discrete tone image data in response to correspondingly positioned pixels of the continuous-tone image data and threshold values of the stochastic threshold arrays.
