Patent CA-2533360-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WANG FAN
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 2006-01-20
Abstract: Various embodiments are described to provide for the transmission and reception of data in an improved manner. Data transmission is improved by including in a transmitter a null generator (110) to generate an output data symbol sequence that exhibits nulls in the frequency domain at particular frequencies that an input data symbol sequence does not. A pilot inserter (120) then adds a pilot symbol sequence to this output data symbol sequence to create a combined symbol sequence. Since the pilot symbol sequence exhibits pilot signals corresponding to the nulls of the output data symbol sequence in the frequency domain, the combined symbol sequence exhibits pilots that are orthogonal to the data in the frequency domain.

Patent CA-2538087-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NEILL BRIAN
IPC: H04L9/00
Filed: 2006-02-28
Abstract: A system and method for remote device registration, to monitor and meter the injection of keying or other confidential information onto a device, is provided. A producer who utilizes one or more separate manufacturers, operates a remote module that communicates over forward and backward channels with a local module at the manufacturer. Encrypted data transmissions are sent by producer to the manufacturer and are decrypted to obtain sensitive data used in the devices. As data transmissions are decrypted, credits from a credit pool are depleted and can be replenished by the producer through credit instructions. As distribution images are decrypted, usage records are created and eventually concatenated, and sent as usage reports back to the producer, to enable the producer to monitor and meter production at the manufacturer. In an alternative arrangement overproduction may be inhibited by introducing a separation of duties within a manufacturing process. Typically a producer will contract out the various stages of manufacturing to multiple contractors. In general, separation of duties involves purposefully separating manufacturing stages, for silicon chips or other devices, so that the end product must have been "touched", by each subcontractor, in order for the end product to be fully functional.

Abstract: A halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl)-2-oxapropane is prepared by adding a pyridinealdoxime to a bis-halomethylether in such a manner that the bis-halomethylether is maintained in excess throughout the addition. This procedure produces the halide salt of a 1-(hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(halomethyl)-2-oxapropane in high yield and purity, which facilitates its use as an intermediate in the manufacture of an asymmetrically substituted 1,3-di(1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane, a class of compounds that are generally useful antidotes to various toxic agents. A  prominent member of the class is the dimethylsulfonate salt of 1-(2-hydroxyiminomethyl-1-pyridino)-3-(4-carbamoyl-1-pyridino)-2-oxapropane. The use of mercaptoalkyl-functionalized polymers is disclosed as a preferred metal ion scavenger for a final purification step in the manufacture of these compounds.
