Title: Multi-carrier transmitting apparatus and method
Inventor: POSTI HARRI
IPC: H04J11/00
Filed: 1998-09-23
Abstract: A multi-carrier transmitting apparatus and method is described, wherein a plurality of carrier signals are combined in the digital domain and supplied to a D/A converting means (3) for converting the combined digital carrier signals into an analog signal to be transmitted. The frequency characteristic of the D/A converting means (3) is compensated by scaling means (51 to 54) for pre-scaling individual ones of said plurality of carrier signals before being combined and supplied to D/A converting means (3). The pre-scaling may be performed by multiplying digital data, representing the carrier signals, by corresponding frequency-dependent digital scaling words. Thereby, the need for signal processing intensive digital filters or non-ideal analog filters can be prevented. In case a digital power control is provided, the scaling word can be combined with a power control word.

Title: Bistable nematic liquid crystal device
Inventor: JONES JOHN CLIFFORD
IPC: G02F1/1337
Filed: 1998-12-16
Abstract: A bistable nematic liquid crystal device cell is provided with a surface alignment treatment on one cell wall which is capable of sustaining two stable states in which the liquid crystal director is in the same azimuthal plane but at two different tilt angles out of the plane of the cell. This surface may be provided using a symmetric or asymmetric grating structure formed by photolithographic or embossing techniques in which the local orientation of the liquid crystal molecules at the surface is normal to the local direction of the surface. Correct choice of the grating period, depth, shape and anchoring properties leads to two stable director configurations: one with the director normal to the plane of the cell at the grating surface, and the other with the director at a pretilt usually in the range 0{ to 60{ from the cell plane. This surface is combined with a monostable surface which leads to substantially planar homogeneous alignment formed e.g. by a rubbed polymer, or a grating surface. The preferred direction of the monostable surface may be arranged to be at any angle with respect to the grating grooves on the opposite surface. In one embodiment, the monostable surface is aligned parallel to the grooves so that in one state the director twists through 90{ from one surface to the other, whereas the other state has little or no twist. The cell may be switched by dc pulses which couple to the flexoelectric coefficients of the material. The material has a negative dielectric anisotropy and may include a chiral dopant to impart a preferred twist direction. The cell walls may be formed from rigid or flexible transparent material coated with electrode structures which form a matrix of pixels. Means for optical discrimination for the different states is provided by one or more polarisers, or a dye with or without a polariser, and/or other optic elements.

Title: Method for the diagnosis of infections with detection of lipopolysaccharide antigens
Inventor: RICHMOND SHIRLEY JEAN
IPC: G01N33/569
Filed: 1988-07-12
Abstract: Method for diagnosing infections by agents with distinct lipopolysaccharide antigens in which clinical samples are applied to a support which absorbs the lipopolysaccharide antigen and then the support, carrying the antigen, is treated with a solution of antibody (especially monoclonal antibody) which has affinity for the antigen and a means for rendering it detectable, especially a radio-label. The absorbing support's preferred material is nitrocellulose, and its preferred form is a membrane. Accuracy and efficiency are improved by treating samples, before application to the absorbing support, with a proteolytic enzyme which is later deactivated. Treatment of the support or membrane with a solution of high-protein content, after it has absorbed the antigen, gives further improvement. The method is easily used by the immune blot technique and can be used as a genus-specific method for diagnosing Chlamydia (C.trachomatis and C.psittaci).

Date Feb. 29, 1996In a method of purifying contaminated liquids and gases, a continuous surface film (31) is produced by means of a nozzle (15) and is simultaneously irradiated by a suitable radiation source (17), e.g. an UV lamp. The surface film (31) is discharged as a falling or trickling film (33) which is also exposed to the radiation. A gas for purification is passed through the surface film (31). In these conditions the pollution particles and other pollutants in the gas are absorbed by the liquid. The advantage of the process described is that decomposition of the pollutants can take place both in the gas phase and in the liquid phase. Gas pollutants which are not decomposed in the gas phase are absorbed by the liquid, where they are finally decomposed. With the present invention liquids and gases can be treated simultaneously.
