Inventor: GOBEILLE ROBERT C
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2001-07-13
Abstract: A data structure and related data storage and retrieval method rapidly provide a count
of elements 100 stored or referenced by a hierarchical structure of ordered elements ( e.g.,  a
tree), access to elements based on their ordinal value in the structure, and identification of the
ordinality of elements. In an ordered tree implementation of the invention, a count of
elements stored in each subtree 140, 150, 160, 180 is stored, i.e., the cardinality of each
subtree is stored either at or associated with a higher level node 110 pointing to that subtree
or at or associated with the head node of the subtree. In addition to data structure specific
requirements ( e.g. , creation of a new node, reassignment of pointers, balancing, etc.) data
insertion and deletion includes steps of updating affected counts. Elements may be target
data itself ( e.g ., data samples, prime numbers 143-147); keys or indices associated with target
data ( e.g.,  social security numbers of employees, product numbers and codes, etc. uses to
reference associated data records, etc.); or internal memory pointer to keys or data stored
external to the data stucture. The invention is applicable to varied hierarchical storage
structures including, for example, binary trees, AVL trees (height-balanced binary trees),
b-trees, etc. (population based structures) and digital trees (i.e., tries - expanse based
structures).

IPC: A61B5/0452
Filed: 2001-07-25
Abstract: A physiological signal is recorded over a set interval against time and the sequence is divided into individual sections. Successive subsets of the sequence are mapped as an allocated series of symbols in accordance with a criterion. This addresses whether a signal magnitude rises or falls relative to the previous signal. Frequencies of the various signal series are determined. A test parameter is determined, to characterize behavior of series in terms of frequency in differing correlation steps, especially for correlation and anti-correlation within a section. Relative differences of the test parameters are determined for two adjacent sections. This is compared with a given threshold, as a criterion for time-constancy of the recorded signal. An Independent claim is included for the corresponding implanted apparatus, especially a defibrillator or pacemaker with an operational control program carrying out the evaluation as described.

Abstract: Projector is suggested, including a light source for emitting beams of lights, a rod lens
for receiving the beams of lights from the light source for making a distribution of the beams
uniform, and a polarization beam converter. The polarization beam converter has a lens part
for receiving the beams from the rod lens and focusing onto a plurality of focusing points, and
a polarization beam sprite array. The polarization beam sprite array receives the beams
inclusive of a P wave and an S wave, and forwards the P wave as it is, and converting the P
wave into the S wave before forwarding. The employment of the rod lens permits to
fabricate a thinner polarization converter, and minimizes a light loss.

Title: Power cutback configuration of digital subscriber line transceivers using public switched telephone network signaling
Inventor: HANSEN CARL C
IPC: H04L5/14
Filed: 2001-11-19
Abstract: The invention provides a technique for power cutback of DSL transceivers (e.g., modems) using public switched telephone network (PSTN) signaling. For example, one or more dual-tone/multiple frequency (DTMF) signals generated by a touch-tone telephone, or other device, can cause a DSL transceiver to reduce the power of upstream data communications. A user of a DSL modem can cause the modem to transmit upstream data while listening to the microphone of a telephone coupled to the same twisted-pair line. Data transmission power can be adjusted by use of one or more buttons on the telephone. The DSL transceiver, in response to one or more predetermined DTMF signals, can adjust transmission power. Thus, the power cutback of the DSL transceiver can be controlled using PSTN signaling.

Abstract: The lamp drive current is passed from the common point (V in ) of the
switches (1,2) of a half-bridge inverter to a lamp load circuit formed by an
inductor (L) connected in series with the lamp (4) and a DC blocking capacitor
(5). A second capacitor (C) is connected in parallel with the series connection
of the lamp (4) and the DC blocking capacitor (5). During normal
operation of the lamp, the operating frequency of the half-bridge
inverter (1,2) is kept with the help of control means (3) at the resonant frequency of the
oscillatory circuit formed by inductor (L) and second capacitor (C). The values
of inductor (L) and second capacitor (C) are selected so that, at the
resonant frequency of the same, there is obtained a desired lamp drive current
(nominal operating current of the lamp) at a level which is substantially
independent from the resistance (R) of lamp (4). Thus, the ballast circuit operates
as a kind of constant-current generator allowing one and a single ballast
to be used for a family of lamps with different power ratings.
