Patent EP-1507493-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MAJERCAK DAVID CHRISTOPHER
IPC: A61F2/82
Filed: 2003-05-06
Abstract: The present invention relates to a medical device, and more particularly to a method of forming a tubular membrane (400) on a radially expandable structural frame (101). In one aspect, a structural frame is placed over a spinning mandrel and a fiber is electro-statically spun over at least a portion of the structural frame forming a membrane. A transfer sheath may be used between the mandrel and structural frame to prevent the electro-statically spun fiber from adhering to the mandrel. In another aspect, a first membrane is spun over the mandrel before the structural frame is placed over the mandrel. In this aspect, at least a portion of the structural frame is sandwiched between the membranes. The membrane or membranes and structural frame form a fiber spun frame assembly. The fiber spun frame assembly may be coated with an elastic polymer. In addition, the membrane or membranes may go through some post processing to achieve desired characteristics or configurations.

Abstract: A wireless audio signal transmission method for transmitting audio signals between a transmitter device (S40) and a spatially adjacent receiver device (E50) which is associated with an audio signal reproduction device (LB) included in a three-dimensional sound system. Prior to transmission, the audio signals are digitized in the transmitter device (S40), compressed and transmitted as data packets (FD) by means of a high-frequency transmission method whereby symbols (A,B,C,D) are allocated to the individual data on a quadrature signal plane. A transmitter diversity operation occurs between the transmitter device (S40) and the receiver device (E50). The transmitter device (S40) comprises two separate high-frequence transmitters (S4, S5) with quadrature conversion, which are respectively connected to an associated transmission antenna (AS1, AS2). In the receiver, each audio signal reproduction device is, however, provided with only a single receiver device (E50) with a receiving antenna (EA) and a high-frequency receiver (ES). Differentiation of the two high-frequency received data flows (D1, D2), containing the individual signals in coded form, is carried out in a decoder device (CE).

Abstract: This invention is a signal recording/reproducing apparatus (1) for searching
for a reproduction position desired by a user from a recorded video signal and/or
audio signal and reproducing the signal. The apparatus has a feature vector
generating unit (30). When recording a video signal/audio signal, the feature
vector generating unit (30) generates a feature vector characterizing the video
signal and/or audio signal and also records this feature vector to a recording unit
(10). When the recorded video signal/audio signal is reproduced, a registration
unit (40) registers feature vectors near a position designated by the user, as
bookmarks. When the user designates one of the bookmarks, a coincidence
detecting unit (60) searches for a coincident position on the basis of the feature
vector of the bookmark and the recorded feature vector, and a reproducing unit (20)
starts reproduction of the video signal and/or audio signal at a reproduction position
set by a reproduction point setting unit (70) on the basis of the coincident position.

Abstract: A method of transmission of radio signals over all types of graded-index multimode fibre is provided. The method comprises launching optical radiation into the core of the multimode fibre away from the centre of the core so as to strongly excite a subset of the available modes of the multimode fibre. The subset of modes excited are within a small number of mode groups and thus have similar propagation constants leading to a reduction in modal dispersion and modal interference and smoothing of the frequency response passband region beyond the fibres specified 3dB base band bandwidth assisting RF transmission and recovery from this region

Abstract: Les modes de réalisation de l'invention facilitent l'établissement de liaisons sans fil présentant de plus longues portées et/ou un meilleur antibrouillage que les antennes intégrées d'un noeud de réseau sans fil classique. Bien que, dans certains cas, il soit possible d'installer des noeuds de réseau sans fil intermédiaires afin d'effectuer des bonds sur de longues étendues séparant des noeuds de réseau sans fil distants, il est souhaitable que des noeuds de réseau sans fil éloignés les uns des autres puissent être joints au moyen d'une seule liaison de transit (c'est-à-dire, un bond). Cette approche est préférable parce qu'une seule liaison de transit est capable de présenter des débits de transmission de données supérieurs et un meilleur antibrouillage que les liaisons de transit à plusieurs bonds. L'invention concerne des procédés et un appareil permettant d'améliorer la portée des liaisons établies au moyen des noeuds de réseau sans fil classiques de sorte que les noeuds de réseau sans fil éloignés les uns des autres puissent communiquer entre eux au moyen d'une seule liaison de transit.

Abstract: Two rotors 18a, 18b each housing a honeycomb structure
25 carrying an absorbent is driven for rotation by a common
motor 19. Partitioning members 17 define an absorbing zone S
and a recovery zone U in the rotor depending on the angular
positional relationship between the partitioning members 17 and
the rotor corresponding thereto. In the absorbing zone S, the
absorbent removes moisture and organic matters from air
passing therethrough. In the recovery zone U, recovery of the
absorbent deteriorated by absorbing the moisture and the
organic matters is preformed by using heated dry air. Air
sucked from a transfer space 10 of the processing system
sequentially passes through the absorbing zones of both the
rotors via a circulation passage 20, thereafter returned to the
transfer space. A part of clean dry air having passed through
the absorbing zones of both the rotors is supplied into an
exhaust passage 21, and is heated by a heater, and passes
through the recovery zones of both the rotors.
