Abstract: A solid-oxide fuel cell stack having a plurality of fuel cells
connected in series and disposed as two stacks side-by-side in head-to-tail
configuration, connected in series across one end and having
cathode and anode current collectors mounted side-by-side on a stack
base at the other end. Each current collector is a flat plate extending
from the stack footprint. Surrounding the stacks is a cover-sealing
flange so formed that when the cover is in place a thermal jacket is
formed around the stacks. The current collectors are electrically
insulated from the sealing flange and cover by a gasket, and extend
outwards from the flange for electrical attachment to a load. This
arrangement permits the stacks to be fully assembled and the stack
cover secured and sealed in place without need for passing electrical
leads through openings in the cover which must be subsequently sealed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wireless
communication apparatus that allows miniaturization of
the wireless communication apparatus as a whole and
improvement of characteristics of an antenna device. A
notch portion is formed in a shield case formed of a
conductive material that covers a radio-frequency
wireless communication circuit provided on a printed
wiring board so as to house the radio-frequency wireless
communication circuit within the shield case. By feeding
power to the notch portion, the shield case is operated
as a slot antenna. At the same time, the shield case
blocks undesired electromagnetic waves emitted from the
radio-frequency wireless communication circuit.
Alternatively, a notch antenna is formed by opening one
end of the notch portion formed in the shield case. By
thus making the shield case function as electromagnetic
wave shielding member and also function as the slot
antenna or the notch antenna, the wireless communication
apparatus as a whole is miniaturized.

Abstract: Methods and systems provide approaches to start code emulation prevention at a granularity higher than the bit level. In various embodiments, start code emulation prevention can occur at locations other than data boundaries such as byte and the like. These embodiments can be used in connection with systems that do not always preserve data alignment boundaries in the data that is processed. In some systems, the described techniques can provide a basis from which decoder systems can recover in the event that data boundaries are lost.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods selectively blank a neurological channel of a medical device system in the treatment of a nervous system disorder. A selected signal of a selected channel may be blanked if it is determined that the selected signal may be affected by an artifact when the medical device system delivers a treatment therapy. The selected signal may be blanked by hardware, in which the selected electrode is disconnected from the selected channel (which may include an selected amplifier) and is connected to a fixed voltage in order to avoid saturation of the selected amplifier. The selected channel may be blanked by software, in which a signal processor is instructed not to process neurological data on the selected channel for a determined time duration. Embodiments may combine hardware and software blanking for the selected signal.
