hydroxymethyl, aldehyde, carbonyl and amide, when X" is carboxyl, it may be
an ester or a salt thereof; Y" is selected from the group consisting of halogen,
alkyl, halogenated alkyl, nitro, alkoxy, carboxyl, ester, cyano, azo, azomethine,

Abstract: An obstacle detection includes a transmission leakage
transmission path, a receiving leakage transmission path
opposite to the transmission leakage transmission path, a
spread spectrum signal generation means connected to an end of
the transmission leakage transmission path and generating a
spread spectrum signal for detection of an obstacle for
radiation from the transmission leakage transmission path. A
correlation means is connected to an end of the receiving
leakage transmission path so as to calculate a level of
correlation between a reference spread spectrum signal and a
spread spectrum signal received by the receiving leakage
transmission path. A detecting means detects an obstacle in
accordance with a change in the level of correlation calculated
by the correlation means.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of automatically setting the gain of an echo signal in a Doppler ultrasound haemodynamic monitor. In essence the invention comprises monitoring the strength of velocity components measured by the apparatus, and identifying a group of such components occupying a particular band within the overall velocity spectrum. The signal gain is then adjusted so that the perceived width of the band falls within predetermined limits. The monitoring or assessment of the velocity components is preferably undertaken when the overall flow velocity is high e.g. during systole.

Abstract: By a method to measure the blood pressure of a patient, a series
of measurements for the diastolic, the systolic blood
pressure and for the pulse rate are made. The results are analysed
in order to determine, and to display whether the patient
is properly settled to a rest condition, and whether the
patients blood pressure variation is found as being normal.
Further it is investigated, whether there are high measurement
result alterations due to artefacts. Highly altered results
are excluded. If the results are sufficiently similar, an average
of the result is made. If the results are not sufficiently
similar, but still below pre-defined alteration limits,
a weighted average is applied to the systolic and the
diastolic blood pressure.

Abstract: This invention provides a process for making microporous membranes from a polymer solution and the membranes therefrom. A thermal assist, such as heating of the polymer solution can be effected subsequent to shaping the solution, such as by forming a film, tube or hollow fiber of the solution under conditions that do not cause phase separation.. In a preferred embodiment, the formed solution is briefly heated to generate a temperature gradient through the body of the formed solution. The polymer in solution then is precipitated to form a microporous structure. The formation of a wide variety of symmetric and asymmetric structures can be obtained using this process. Higher temperatures and/or longer heating times effected during the heating step result in larger pore sizes and different pore gradients in the final membrane product.

Abstract: Techniques for puncturing symbols in a communications system. S symbols are received for a frame having a capacity of N symbols, with S being greater than N. P symbols need to be punctured so that remaining symbols fit into the frame. A number of puncture distances, D1 through DN, are computed based on S and P. A particular number of symbol punctures is determined for each computed puncture distance. P1 through PN symbol punctures are then performed at the distances of D1 through DN, respectively. For a more even distribution of the symbol punctures, each of the distances D1 through DN can be selected to be greater than or equal to a minimum puncture distance Dmin defined as  D min =  S / P , where L  denotes a floor operator. The symbol punctures at each computed distance can be performed together or distributed with symbol punctures at other distances.
