Title: Pulse modulator and pulse modulation method
Inventor: SPAHLINGER GUENTER
IPC: H03M7/00
Filed: 2004-05-06
Abstract: The proposed pulse modulator has a subtraction stage which produces a control error signal from the difference between the complex input signal and a feedback signal, as well as a signal conversion stage which converts the control error signal to a control signal. The control signal is multiplied by a complex mixing signal at the frequency .omega.0 in a first multiplication stage. At least one of the real part and imaginary part of the up-mixed control signal is or are then quantized by a quantization stage, in order to produce a real pulsed signal in this way. The pulsed signal is then used to produce the feedback signal for the subtraction stage, in a feedback unit. The pulse modulator according to the invention allows the range of reduced quantization noise to be shifted toward a desired operating frequency .omegaØ

Title: Apparatus, system, and method for autonomously managing reverse link communication resources in a distributed communication system
Inventor: TIEDEMANN EDWARD G JR
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2004-06-15
Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method efficiently manage reverse link communicati on in a communication system having geographically distributed base stations. A base station functioning to at least one mobile station as a non-serving active base station estimates an expected coupled load due to the at least o ne mobile based on a previous total coupled load. The base station determines a total available capacity based on the difference between the total capacity of the base station and the estimated expected coupled load. The base station allocates reverse link resources to other mobile stations served by the base station so as not to exceed the total available capacity. Since the allocati on of reverse link channels resources are controlled directly by the base station, delays due to communications with a central controller are eliminated. As a result, adverse effects of load scheduling based on obsolet e reverse channel information are minimized.

Patent CA-2545846-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROTH SCOTT L
IPC: A61B8/12
Filed: 2004-11-24
Abstract: Transesophageal echocardiography is implemented using a miniature transversely oriented transducer that is preferably small enough to fit in a 7.5 mm diameter probe, and most preferably small enough to fit in a 5 mm diameter probe. Signal processing techniques improve the depth of penetration to the point where the complete trans-gastric short axis view of the left ventricle can be obtained, despite the fact that the transducer is so small. The reduced diameter of the probe (as compared to prior art probes) reduces risks to patients, reduces or eliminates the need for anesthesia, and permits long term direct-visualization monitoring of patients~ cardiac function.

Inventor: WOJTKIW JEREMY J
IPC: A63B21/055
Filed: 2006-05-26
Abstract: An apparatus for treating or training individuals while doing exercises permits a large range of motion while at the same time providing resistance. A hollow spherical housing having a spool and a cord inside is mounted within a support frame which permits the housing to rotate 360 degrees about a central z-axis and further about 120 degrees about the x-axis and the y-axis when the cord contacts the frame. A tension dial permits adjusting the tension applied to the spool to provide resistance as a user pulls the cord from the housing. When the user releases the force on the cord the cord is retracted onto the spool. The base of the support frame has opposing locking lugs which engage keyways in a co-operating socket which can be mounted on a variety of surfaces such as walls, doors and straps for attachment to a wrist or ankle or other body part.

Patent CA-2549226-A1 (CA)
IPC: E21B43/267
Filed: 2006-06-01
Abstract: A high-pressure injection proppant system for stimulating coal bed methane production preloads proppant, such as sand, into one or more high-pressure vessels, for delivery into a fluid stream, such a N2 gas stream. A screw auger arrangement meters the proppant volumes and rates into the fluid stream.  Two such vessels operationally mounted in parallel can function separately or concurrently depending on the demand for proppant in a particular formation.  The system provides for the injection of surfactants into the fluid stream to enhance the performance of the proppant, to aid in the placement of the proppant into a fracture network, and to demote proppant flowback during production and embedment. The system can be operated manualy or by computer automation to aid in the accuracy of the mixing of the fluid stream components.

Title: Method and circuit for encrypting a data stream
Inventor: TREFFERS MENNO A
IPC: H04N21/4405
Filed: 2005-02-17
Abstract: Current legislation requires the possibility of encryption when storing television programmes received by broadcast. However, legacy playback apparatuses will not be able to play back such encrypted data in a regular way, but possibly in a wrong way. This may result in problems like damage of speakers. Therefore, the application intends to hide any of such possibly damaging streams by intentionally providing such streams with a wrong identification during the encryption process. The application provides among others a method and circuit for encryption and a method and circuit for decryption. The application is especially suitable for DVD recorders, but may also be employed for other video and/or audio recorders. The invention may even be used for encrypting non-audiovisual data.
