Patent AU-762851-B2 (AU)
Title: Expanded information capacity for existing communication transmission systems
Inventor: HARTSON TED E
IPC: H04N5/40
Filed: 1999-04-16
Granted: 2003-07-10
Abstract: A system for transmitting digital programming includes a program source providing digital information, circuitry for modulating the digital information onto a visual carrier modulated with analog television programming, and a visual transmitter coupled to the modulating circuitry. Using a phase modulation method, the system phase modulates the digital information onto a visual carrier, reduces the baseband frequencies of the phase modulated visual carrier, and amplitude modulates the phase-modulated video carrier onto a video signal. The amplified and encoded video signal are combined with an amplified sound signal and transmitted. Using an additive method, the system modulates the sidebands of the video carrier with the digital information and amplitude modulates the video signal onto the video carrier. The data-modulated sidebands are phase-shifted such that they will be in quadrature with the amplitude-modulated video signal. The system combines the amplitude-modulated video carrier and the data-modulated quadrature sidebands. With a blended multiplicative/additive method, the system provides phase modulation and quadrature sideband addition to provide an optimized result.

Title: Optical fibre tdm communications
Inventor: OHNSORGE HORST
IPC: H04M11/06
Filed: 1985-01-24
Granted: 1988-06-16
Abstract: A broadband integrated subscriber loop system is provided in accordance with the teachings of the present invention. A system is provided in which the subscribers are combined in groups (T1n1-T1n10) each of which is supplied via a single optical communication link. Over the optical waveguide (LWL) of this optical communication link, signals of the channels assigned to subscribers for various telecommunication services are transmitted on a multiplexed basis from the switching unit to an interface unit closely located to the subscribers of the group. In the interface unit the channels are separated and subscriber-assigned multiplexers (Mux 5) combine the channels assigned to a subscriber in accordance with the transmission capacity required into a subscriber time-division-multiplex signal. This signal is transmitted over a subscriber line in the form of a coaxial electric line (KL 1) to subscriber's taps, where the signals for terminals located at the top are separated via demultiplexers (Demux 3, Demux 4, Demux 5, Demux 6). Signals to be transmitted from a subscriber's terminals to the switching unit are combined in digital form (Mux 2, Mux 3, Mux 4), and a multiplexer (Mux 1) in the interface unit combines signals from all subscribers of the group into a back-channel multiplex signal which is transmitted to the switching unit over an optical communication link using the same or a second optical waveguide. In the switching unit, a demultiplexer (Demux 1) separates the received signals into the signals from the individual subscribers, and the signals of each subscriber are split up according to the subscriber's various telecommunications services. The system, including the terminals, is fully digital.

Title: Automotive, steering wheel anti-theft device
Inventor: TOBIAS MARC WEBER
IPC: B60R25/02
Filed: 1993-06-21
Granted: 1995-04-27
Abstract: A mechanical anti-theft device of the type applied to the steering wheel of an automotive vehicle which automatically ratchets to it's applied position without necessity of key lock actuation is provided with several security enhancing features which cumulatively prevent or make the device exceedingly difficult to unlock using conventional burglary tools or lock picking techniques. The features include configuring the ratchet teeth of the telescoping rod member in a way which minimizes any attempt to deactivate the lock unless the key is used. In combination with the ratchet teeth configuration, the lock pawl mechanism is configured to include an arcuate, transversely extending apex edge line or surface which cooperates with or is sized to be coincident with the rod members circumference to prevent a wedge, shim or pick from being readily easily inserted between pawl and ratchet tooth to force a retraction of the pawl.

Title: Optical probes and assays
Inventor: POLLOK BRIAN A
IPC: A61P43/00
Filed: 2000-05-05
Granted: 2006-10-05
Abstract: This invention provides an optical probe useful as an optical probe or sensor of post translational type modifications, such as phosphorylation. The invention comprises a polypeptide moiety, which contains a recognition motif for a post translational type activity and a protease site, which is coupled to a probe moiety. Modification of the polypeptide, by the post translational type activity, results in a modulation of the rate at which a protease cleaves the polypeptide which is sensed by a measurable change in at least one optical property of the optical probe upon cleavage. The present invention also includes a recombinant nucleic acid molecule that encodes an optical probe and a vector and host cell or library of cells that include the recombinant nucleic acid molecule. The optical probe can be used in methods to determine whether a sample, including a cell or a sample from an organism, contains a post-translational type modification activity. Such methods can also be used to determine whether a test chemical modulates the activity of a modifying activity, and thus can be used to identify therapeutic compositions. The identification of such therapeutic compositions can be automated using a system that includes an optical probe.
