Patent EP-1009857-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CHEE MARK
IPC: C12Q1/6837
Filed: 1998-06-11
Abstract: The invention provides methods of monitoring expression levels of different polymorphic forms of a gene. Such methods entail analyzing genomic DNA from an individual to determine the presence of heterozygous polymorphic forms at a polymorphic site within a transcribed sequence of a gene of interest. RNA from a tissue of the individual in which the gene is expressed is then analyzed to determine relative proportions of polymorphic forms in transcript of the gene. Having identified alleles of a gene that are expressed at different levels, the alleles can be further analyzed to locate a second polymorphism that has a causative role in the different expression levels. The methods are amenable to analyzing large collections of genes simultaneously using arrays of immobilized probes.

Title: Procede pour la transmission de donnees sur des canaux de transmission dans un systeme de transmission numerique
Inventor: DOETSCH MARKUS
IPC: H03M13/23
Filed: 1998-07-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour la transmission de données sur des canaux de transmission dans un système de transmission numérique. Pour le codage des canaux, un turbo-codage s'effectue côté émetteur dans un turbo-codeur, et un turbo-décodage s'effectue côté récepteur dans un turbo-décodeur avec des signaux de sortie de décision pondérée. Dans le but d'améliorer la qualité de service, celle-ci est définie à partir des variances des signaux de sortie de décision pondérée au niveau du turbo-décodeur, et la vitesse de codage est ajustée par adaptation du pointillage de manière à obtenir une qualité de service prédéterminée. En variante, le nombre des itérations de décodage est ajusté en fonction de la qualité de service. Lorsqu'un évaluateur de symboles MAP est utilisé côté récepteur, les variances σ2LLR des signaux de sortie de décision pondérée du turbo-décodeur sont déterminées, et le taux d'erreurs sur les bits est calculé à partir de celles-ci et permet de mesurer la qualité de service.

Abstract: A digital demodulator that eliminates the need for an absolute
phase circuit is provided. In a digital demodulator for a digital
broadcasting receiver that receives digital time-division multiplexed
signals of different types of modulation, the demodulated baseband
signal is selectively inverted by an inverter (7) according to an
inversion command signal "0" or "1" that is output from an inversion
decision circuit (6) depending on a BPSK signal of a known pattern.
A phase error detector (8) for carrier reproduction determines the
phase error voltage based on the phase difference between the
absolute phase and the phase of the signal point of the demodulated
baseband signal output from the inverter (7). The phase error
voltage is passed through a carrier filter (9), including a low-pass
filter, to control the carrier frequency so that carrier reproduction can
be carried out with the phase at the signal point being coincident
with the point of phase convergence.

Abstract: From the instant of changeover, rich regeneration is prolonged beyond the requirement for complete desorption of nitrogen oxides from the catalyst, until rich exhaust gas breaks through. The time  DELTA t1, changeover to breakthrough, is measured during lean burn, the time DELTA t2 to oxygen breakthrough is similarly measured. Intervals DELTA t1,  DELTA t2 are used independently to assess oxygen and nitrogen oxides storage functionalities. Preferred features: The rich phase is prolonged by 1.0-10 times the interval to the first breakthrough of rich exhaust, using a fresh catalyst. During rich running, the air fuel ratio is adjusted between 0.99 and 0.7. Intervals  DELTA t1 and  DELTA t2 are measured with a rapid response lambda sensor or a linear lambda sensor. They are alternatively determined using a rapid response lambda sensor before and after the catalyst.
