Abstract: A removable, variable-diameter vascular filter system comprises a guidewire and a filter which can be used to capture embolic particulates during medical procedures, while allowing for continuous perfusion of blood. The removable, variable-diameter vascular filter system allows the operator to vary the diameter of the filter, so that a single device can be used to capture embolic particulates in vessels with different luminal diameters.

Abstract: A non-volatile memory system having an array of memory cells with at least one storage element each is operated with a plurality of storage level ranges per storage element. A flash electrically erasable and programmable read only memory (EEPROM) is an example, wherein the storage elements are electrically floating gates. The memory is operated to minimize the effect of charge coupled between adjacent floating gates, by programming some cells a second time after adjacent cells have been programmed. The second programming step also compacts a distribution of charge levels within at least some of the programming states. This increases the separation between states and/or allows more states to be included within a given storage window. An implementation that is described is for a NAND type of flash EEPROM.

Abstract: A method for tracing traitor receivers in a broadcast encryption system. The method includes using a false key to encode plural subsets representing receivers in the system. The subsets are derived from a tree using a Subset-Cover system, and the traitor receiver is associated with one or more compromised keys that have been obtained by a potentially cloned pirate receiver. Using a clone of the pirate receiver, the identity of the traitor receiver is determined, or the pirate receiver clones are rendered useless for decrypting data using the compromised key by generating an appropriate set of subsets.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a link quality report in a wireless communication system supporting link adaptation. An input signal carrying data blocks in one or several transmission intervals of a reporting interval is received by a receiver (30) of the apparatus. A quality measurement unit (31) provides a link quality measure of the current reporting interval. A correction unit (32) corrects the link quality measure by determining a SIR loss of the link, which is induced by unmatched transmission parameter settings of a physical layer. Then, a link quality report for the current reporting interval is based on the corrected link quality measure and transmitted by the transmitter (34) to the transmitting unit, which will adapt the setting of physical layer parameters accordingly. <IMAGE>
