Title: Distance measuring device and method for calibrating a distance measuring device
Inventor: MENDE RALPH
IPC: G01S13/931
Filed: 2000-06-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a distance measuring device. A transmitting part (5) for electromagnetic radiation especially radar radiation, emits measuring pulses (A, B) which are controlled by a pulse generator (1), and a receiving part (8) is switched to a ready-to-receive mode after a certain, adjustable delay (T  DELAY1, before a next measuring pulse is emitted, for receiving a reflected pulse during a time gate (18). The aim of the invention is to provide a calibration process taking into account all practical defects. To this end, the pulse generator (1) produces pulses with a multiple of the frequency with which the measuring pulses are repeated and a calibrating cycle in which calibrating pulses (.tau.O to .tau.9) are produced with pulses generated by the pulse generator (1), controlled by the transmitting part (5), is carried out at longer intervals in time. The calibrating pulses (.tau.O to .tau.8) are received directly in the receiving part (8) and the delay time (T DELAY) in the receiving part is regulated in such a way that a generated calibrating pulse (.tau.O) to .tau.9) is received directly by the received directly by the receiving part (8) during a time gate (18).

Abstract: A method for creating a path list for use in finger assignments comprising clearing a list of paths, choosing a sector for consideration from an active set of sectors, establishing a searcher window around the sector for consideration, and determining up to "n" local maxima stronger than a threshold value. If a sector under consideration is transmitting on supplemental channels, the method involves artificially biasing the findings of the searcher window by a predetermined value. The biasing value may be constant, variable or proportional to the number of supplemental channels on the base station. After the local maxima corresponding to base stations transmitting on supplemental channels have been biased, the path lists are created. After the path list is created, a finger for consideration for assignment is chosen, and if the finger is not presently in lock on a path, the finger is de-assigned from the path.

Abstract: A method of and an apparatus for reducing the average power consumption in a remote unit in a wireless communication system. When a remote unite in a slotted mode communication system receives a general paging message, it deinterleaves and decodes the raw data samples. Prior to parsing, it compares the decoded data samples with the samples stored in a memory. Based on this comparison, the remote unit determines whether or not the message is empty. If the message is empty, the remote unit transitions to an inactive state. By comparing before parsing, the remote unit is able to conserve power by entering the inactive state sooner. If no samples are stored in the memory, instead of comparing, the remote unit parses the message and executes any instructions. If, upon parsing, the remote unit determines the message to be empty, at least a portion of the message is stored in the memory.

Abstract: The present invention discloses the use of PSP-94 for treating a patient suffering from hypercalcemia of malignancy. Prostate secretory protein of 94 amino acids (PSP-94) is known to serve as prognostic marker in hormone-dependent prostate. In the current study the effect of PSP-94 on prostate cancer growth, metastases to the skeleton and hypercalcemia of malignancy was examined. A marked dose-dependent decrease in primary tumor volume was seen in experimental animals receiving PSP-94. Furthermore, while control animals routinely developed hypercalcemia due to PTHrP production, treatment with PSP-94 led to a near normalization of plasma calcium and a marked reduction in PTHrP production as determined by radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry. Results obtained demonstrate the ability of PSP-94 to be an effective treatment modality for prostate cancer. Furthermore, decrease in plasma PTHrP and calcium levels can serve as useful biochemical markers for monitoring the efficacy of this novel anti-tumor agent.

Title: Interactive printer reward scheme
Inventor: LAPSTUN PAUL
IPC: G06F3/033
Filed: 2000-06-30
Abstract: A preferred embodiment of the invention is specifically configured to allow a printer's or a user's account to accumulate a credit balance and for all or a portion of this balance to be presented to the corresponding user or users as a collection of "points". If the printer account has a credit balance, then the corresponding points may be redeemed by the user or users for particular products or services. Users thereby learn to associate fee-earning activities in relation to the printer, such as the printing of advertising and online purchasing, with the accumulation of points, thus maximising the likelihood that a particular printer will not become a cost burden to its provider.
