Abstract: A receiving entity (150) obtains received symbols for a data transmission having at least one data symbol stream sent with space-time transmit diversity (STTD). The receiving entity derives an overall channel response matrix in accordance w ith the STTD encoding scheme used for the data transmission, derives a spatial f ilter matrix based on the overall channel response matrix, and performs spatial matched filtering on a vector of received symbols for each 2-symbol interval to obtain a vector of detected symbols for the 2-symbol interval. The receiving ent ity may perform post-processing (e.g., conjugation) on the detected symbols if n eeded. Alternatively, the receiving entity derives a spatial filter matrix based on an effective channel response matrix, performs spatial matched filtering on the received symbols for each symbol period to obtain detected symbols for that symbol period, A receiving entity obtains received symbols for a data transmissi on having at least one data symbol stream sent with space-time transmit diversit y (STTD).

Title: Process for producing muscarine receptor antagonist and intermediate therefor
Inventor: AONO MASAHIRO
IPC: A61P13/02
Filed: 2005-12-13
Abstract: The industrial production of 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2,2-diphenylbutanamide, a urinary incontinence remedy, necessitates elimination of problems concerning the use of a synthetic adsorbent, e.g., HP-20, the efficiency of operation with the same, purification efficiency, etc. An acid salt, e.g., hydrochloride or phosphate, of 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2,2-diphenylbutanamide or a hydrate of any of these salts is used as an intermediate. This intermediate is neutralized and then purified. Thus, high-purity 4-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-2,2-diphenyl~butanamide is easily obtained in a satisfactory yield. The industrial-scale production process has been thus established.
