Abstract: A preferred embodiment of a stent provides a folded strut section that
provides both structural rigidity and reduction in foreshortening of the stent
mechanism. A flexible section provides flexibility for delivery of the stent
mechanism. In a second embodiment, flexible section columns are angled
with respect to each other, and to the longitudinal axis of the stent. These
relatively flexible sections are oppositely phased in order to negate any
torsion along their length. In yet another embodiment, the flexible connector
can take on an undulating shape (like an "N"), but such that the longitudinal
axis of the connector is not parallel with the longitudinal axis of the stent.
Finally, a new method is disclosed for making stents. The method consists of
performing a standard photochemical machining process of cutting, cleaning
and coating the tube with a photoresist. However, unlike former methods, the
photoresist image is developed on the surface of the cylindrical metallic tube,
which results in a controlled variable etching rate at selected sites on the
cylindrical metallic tube during the etching process. Further embodiments
provide living hinge connectors and connections along the length of the radial
strut member.

Abstract: Described is a method of managing multiple failures of different type in
telecommunication networks having a ring topology, in particular transoceanic
four-fiber MS-SPRING rings. The method is characterized by comprising the
step, implemented before realizing the ring type protection, of checking that the
necessary low priority channels for the implementation of the ring type
protection are available, namely they are not already utilized for performing
another protection; in the negative case, it is foreseen the implementation of no
ring type protection to prevent the unuseful loss of low priority channels. In case
of multiple failures of different type, namely of ring and span types, in the path,
the method provides for implementing a ring type protection.

Abstract: A tuning arrangement in a radio receiver includes a front-end circuit having a tunable band-pass filter that is capable of tunably selecting channels within at least one frequency band of an RF signal. A noise source coupled to an input of the tunable band-pass filter introduces a wide-band noise signal into the front-end circuit. A signal detector coupled to an output of the front-end circuit measures at least one signal power associated with a filtered noise signal derived from the wide-band noise signal. A tuning controller, coupled to the tunable band-pass filter by a tuning control signal, adjusts the tuning control signal in response to the at least one measured signal power for tuning the tunable band-pass filter to a desired filter response.

Abstract: A functional model for a set of experimental data has K independent parameters. The parameters are to be estimated from an experimental data-set of N data points, comprising "inlier" data points representative of the model and "outlier" data points which are not representative of the model. Multiple subsets of the data points are defined, and each used to estimate the parameters of the model. The various estimates of the parameters are plotted in the parameter space to identify the peak parameters in the parameter space. Data points which are not described by the model using the said peak parameters are judged to be outliers. The method makes it possible to identify up to N-K'-3 outliers (K' is the minimum number of data points through any subset of the input data set the K parameters of the model can be uniquely calculated).
