Title: Method and apparatuus for suppressing noise in a communication system
Inventor: ASHLEY JAMES PATRICK
IPC: H04Q7/20
Filed: 1996-09-04
Abstract: A noise suppression system (109) implemented in communication system (700) provides an improved update decision during instances of sudden increase in background noise level. The noise suppression system (109), infer alia, generates an update by continually monitoring the deviation of spectral energy and forcing an update based on a predetermined threshold criterion. The spectral energy deviation is determined by utilizing an element which has the past values of the power spectral components exponentially weighted. The exponential weighting is a function of the current input energy, which means the higher the input signal energy, the longer the exponential window. Conversely, the lower the signal energy, the shorter the exponential window. The noise suppression system (109) also inhibits a forced update during periods of continuous, non-stationary input signals (such as "music-on-hold").

Patent GB-2333706-A (GB)
Title: Method for increasing muscle mass in animals
Inventor: HICKEY GERARD F
IPC: A61P3/00
Filed: 1999-01-29
Abstract: A method for increasing the muscle mass in animals, such as cow, sheep, pig and chicken, comprises (a) administering a vaccine which will promote the production of anti-myostatin (i. e., anti- growth differentiation factor 8 or GDF-8) antibodies, or (b) providing the animal with an immunoneutralising amount of anti-myostatin antibodies. Myostatin, a member of the transforming growth factor (TGF) superfamily of proteins, is thought to exert a negative control on the amount of skeletal muscle mass in an animal. The use of a vaccine or antibodies to myostatin allows one to increase the skeletal muscle mass in domesticated animals and thus increase their value as food sources. The vaccine may be a hapten-carrier protein conjugate in which the hapten is an epitope of myostatin, particularly from the functional domain at the C-terminus, or it may be a fusion protein comprising such an epitope fused to a carrier protein. The fusion protein product is obtained using standard recombinant DNA procedures using E Coli as host. The vaccine is preferably administered in a formulation also containing an adjuvant such as an aluminium salt (AIPO 4 ) or an oil-in-water emulsion such as vitamin-E acetate solubilisate. Immunoneutralisation of myostatin may occur after a single dose or a once yearly dose may be applied. Immunoneutralisation may also be induced in pregnant animals resulting in transplacental transfer of anti-myostatin antibodies to the foetus and consequent increased muscle mass in the offspring.

Title: Electrode substrate for a liquid crystal device
Inventor: AKIYAMA HISASHI
IPC: G02F1/1343
Filed: 1999-09-10
Abstract: On a transparent substrate, a photosensitive resin layer, which is made of an acrylic positive photosensitive resin layer, is formed so as to cover stripe-shaped conductive wires and a portion between the conductive wires. In this case, at least a part of the photosensitive resin layer, that covers the conductive wire, is removed. And then, a transparent conductive film is formed on the photosensitive resin layer and the conductive wire, and the transparent conductive film is patterned so as to form transparent electrodes. Such an electrode substrate can obtain high evenness when a height difference is at 0.11žm or less between a projecting portion, which appears on the photosensitive resin layer around the ends of the conductive wires after the photosensitive resin layer has been removed so as to expose the conductive wire, and the virtually even surface of the resin film at a portion where the conductive wire is not formed, and a height difference is 0.11žm or less between the projecting portion and the surface of the conductive wire. Consequently, it is possible to improve evenness of the electrode substrate in which the conductive wires are formed so as to be conductively contact with the transparent electrodes on the insulating layer.
