Abstract: L'invention concerne un système transducteur de couple, qui comprend un disque (20) par lequel le couple est transmis dans une direction radiale, et comporte une région annulaire magnétisée (26) émettant un champ magnétique tributaire du couple. Un détecteur de champ magnétique sans contact (L1) détecte le champ émis. La région annulaire (26) comprend des segments (30) au moyen desquels un champ magnétique pulsé est émis suivant la rotation du disque (20). Les segments (30) peuvent être magnétiquement unipolaires et spatialement séparés, ou présenter une polarité alternée (fig 2). Ils peuvent faire bloc avec le disque (20), ou être confectionnés avec un matériau appliqué sur le disque (fig 3) qui est magnétisé ou segmente une magnétisation sous-jacente dans le disque. La direction de magnétisation préférée est radiale et l'effet de l'orientation d'un détecteur (L) par rapport au champ radial est expliqué. Une configuration de détecteurs comprend deux détecteurs (L1: L2) orientés de façon à former un angle relativement au champ radial. Le procédé de l'invention peut être appliqué pour la segmentation d'une région du transducteur intégrée d'un arbre de transmission de torque, lorsque ladite région présente un espace annulaire de magnétisation rémanente axiale.

Abstract: A storage bag having a recloseable mouth, which is biased into an open configuration, is disclosed. The bag, typically manufactured from thermoplastic material such as low-density polyethylene, includes first and second adjacent layers joined or folded along bottom and side edges. The top edges are not folded or permanently joined, but are provided with closure members such as mating male and female zipper strips. The bag is further provided with structure to bias the top edges apart from one another thus biasing the mouth of the bag into an open configuration. The closure members are sufficiently strong to overcome the force of the biasing structure and thereby hold the bag closed when the closure members are engaged. However, upon disengagement of the closure members the biasing structure forces the bag top edges apart to thereby place the bag into an open mouth configuration.

Abstract: A device for incising a stenosis in the vasculature of a patient includes a plurality of blades mounted on a resilient base member. The blades are arranged in a pattern to allow for relative movement between adjacent blades. Specifically, at least one end portion of each blade is juxtaposed with an end portion of the next closest blade. The base member includes a first end affixed to a catheter at a location proximal to an inflatable balloon and a second end affixed to the catheter at a location distal to the inflatable balloon. When the balloon is inserted into the vasculature of a patient, positioned across a stenosis and subsequently inflated, the individually moveable blades form an effective cutting edge that conforms to the surface of the stenosis to effectively allow the stenosis to be incised to a substantially uniform depth.

Abstract: A circuit for processing radio frequency signals. The circuit includes a
substrate where the circuit can be placed. The substrate can be a meta material and
can incorporate at least one dielectric layer (100). A directional coupler (106) and at
least one ground (112) can be coupled to the substrate. The dielectric layer can
include a first region (102) with a first set of substrate properties and a second
region (104) with a second set of substrate properties. The substrate properties can

coupler (106) can be coupled to the second region (104). The permittivity and/or
permeability of the second region (104) can be higher than the permittivity and/or
permeability of the first region (102). The increased permittivities and/or
permeabilities can reduce a size of the directional coupler (106) and effect a change
in a variety of electrical characteristics associated with the directional coupler (106).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for decoding a signal, which method includes a symbol decoding step for producing estimated symbols (p1...p5) representative of symbols carried by a received signal, and likelihood values associated to said estimated symbols, which estimated symbols are identified among predetermined symbols forming a lattice constellation LATR and are included in a sphere SPH having a predetermined radius Rd. 
     In the method according to the invention, this sphere SPH is centered on a particular symbol MLP chosen among the predetermined symbols forming the lattice constellation LATR. 
     The invention ensures, by directly centering the sphere SPH on a symbol belonging to the lattice constellation LATR instead of centering it on a point y representing the received symbol, that said sphere SPH will encompass a statistically significant number of lattice constellation symbols
