Title: Method of and apparatus for interference rejection combining in multi-antenna digital cellular communications systems
Inventor: BOTTOMLEY GREGORY E
IPC: H03M13/23
Filed: 1995-07-28
Abstract: A digital radio communications system is presented in which the deleterious effects of fading, time dispersion and interference found in the channel are mitigated by using interference rejection and diversity combining. Digital signals representative of digital symbol sequences are transmitted through a radio channel in which the signals may be corrupted by fading, time dispersion and interference. The corrupted signals are received by a receiver having one or more antennas. The received signals are processed to form a received signal sample stream rd(kTs) for each of the antennas. Estimated received signal samples for each of the antennas are produced by combining hypothesized signal sequences and models of each channel. The received signal samples and the estimated received signal samples are processed in conjunction with an estimate of the impairment correlation properties to produce branch metrics to be used by a Viterbi, or other sequence estimation, algorithm. The branch metric processor may assume one of several configurations depending on whether or not the channel is time-varying.

Title: Systems and methods for electrosurgical spine surgery
Inventor: UNDERWOOD RONALD A
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 1999-02-17
Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for selectively applying electrical energy to a target location within a patient's body, particularly including tissue in the spine.
