Abstract: Method and apparatus for use in the diagnostic analysis of a liquid specimen through binding assays. The apparatus includes a rigid body having an elongated, shallow well formed in it, with a plurality of elongated strips, preferably in the form of cotton threads, stretched across the well in spaced relationship and generally perpendicular to the well's longitudinal axis. Each thread is coated with a separate binding conjugate such as an antigen or allergen. A cover plate that includes a thin plastic layer and an overlaying thin metallic layer covers the well to form an enclosed chamber having a specific volume. The metallic layer includes a separate elongated aperture in alignment with each coated thread. A liquid specimen is introduced into the chamber through one of two ports, for incubation with the coated threads, after which the specimen is removed and the reaction that occurred on each thread is determined.

Title: Composition monitor and monitoring process using impedance measurements
Inventor: GAISFORD SCOTT G
IPC: G01N22/04
Filed: 1989-10-05
Abstract: Radio frequency bridge techniques are used to parameterize the complex dielectric properties of solids, liquids, gasses and mixtures thereof. This parameterization is performed in an electrically isolated, physically open structure which allows continuous or batch monitoring of the materials and their mixtures. A method and apparatus are provided for measuring the composition of mutlicomponent process streams flowing in pipes or ducts. The method uses the pipe in which the mixture flows as a waveguide in which propagating radio frequency electromagnetic energy is induced through dielectric loaded apertures. The dielectric measurement is performed in an electrically isolated, flow through test section which induces constructive or destructive interference patterns at characteristics frequencies. The characteristic frequency determines the dielectric constant of the mixture. The dielectric properties are used in turn to determine mixture composition. A density measurement is also provided for three comiponent strams such as oil, water, and gas. Temperature and pressure measurements are made to correct for temperature and pressure induced variations in calibrated component impedance and density values.

Title: Position determination using one low-earth orbit satellite
Inventor: LEVANON NADAV
IPC: H04W84/06
Filed: 1997-09-26
Abstract: A system and method for determining the position of a user terminal (for example, a mobile wireless telephone) in a low-Earth orbit satellite communications system. The system includes a user terminal, at least one satellite with a known position and velocity, and a gateway (that is, a terrestrial base station) for communicating with the user terminal through the satellites. The method includes the steps of determining a range parameter and a range-rate parameter. A range parameter represents a distance between the satellite and the user terminal. A range-rate parameter represents a relative radial velocity between that satellite and the user terminal. The position of the user terminal on the Earth's surface is then determined based on the range parameter, the range-rate parameter, and the known position and velocity of the satellite.
