Abstract: A multiple access, spread-spectrum communication system processes a plurality of information signals received by a Radio Carrier Station (RCS) over telecommunication lines for simultaneous transmission over a radio frequency (RF) channel as a code-division-multiplexed (CDM) signal to a group of Subscriber Units (SUs). The RCS receives a call request signal that corresponds to a telecommunication line information signal, and a user identification signal that identifies a user to receive the call. The RCS includes a plurality of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) modems, one of which provides a global pilot code signal. The modems provide message code signals synchronized to the global pilot signal. Each modem combines an information signal with a message code signal to provide a CDM processed signal. The RCS includes a system channel controller coupled to receive a remote call. An RF transmitter is connected to all of the modems to combine the CDM processed signals with the global pilot code signal to generate a CDM signal. The RF transmitter also modulates a carrier signal with the CDM signal and transmits the modulated carrier signal through an RF communication channel to the SUs. Each SU includes a CDMA modem which is also synchronized to the global pilot signal. The CDMA modem despreads the CDM signal and provides a despread information signal to the user. The system includes a closed loop power control system for maintaining a minimum system transmit power level for the RCS and the SUs, and system capacity management for maintaining a maximum number of active SUs for improved system performance. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a gaming system, a user controls actions of characters in the game environment using speech commands. In a learning mode, available speech commands are displayed in a command menu on a display device. In a non-learning mode, the available speech commands are not displayed. A speaker-independent context-sensitive speech recognition module (214) contains a vocabulary of available speech commands. Use of speech commands is combined with input from a controller device to control actions of a character or characters in the game environment. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A connector (1) for providing semi-permanent connection between a bus bar and a connector contact (4) is formed by overlapping a bus bar tab (3) with at least one contact tail (5) of the connector contact (4) and gripping the overlapped bus bar tab (3) and the contact tail (5) with a spring clip (20). In this manner, the spring clip (20) produces the pressure required to establish adequate contact between the bus bar tab (3) and contact tail (5). According to another feature, the junction including the bas bar tab (3), the contact tail (5) and the spring clip (20) are isolated by covering them with an electrically insulating sleeve (25), this sleeve (25) also seving to retain the spring clip (20) in position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system for drying chemical reagents on material, particularly for producing product used in making reagent test strips is described. By drying selected chemicals on substrate drawn past a radiant energy source (preferably an IR source), rapid drying may be achieved while obtaining high-quality product. Airflow sufficient to break or disturb a vapor boundary layer above drying solution may be provided to increase drying speeds. Any airflow provided should not disturb the surface of the solution. Still, air-impingement drying techniques may be employed in the system to finish drying reagent material once it is sufficiently dry to be stable in shape. The substrate upon which chemicals are dried may include a reflective coating to facilitate its use with high levels of radiant energy. A metallic or metalized substrate is advantageously used in producing electrochemical test strips. Such test strips may be used in conjunction with various kits and be conveniently read using known hand-held meters. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A half duplex radio transceiver comprises a transmitter ( 100 ) and a low IF receiver ( 200 ). The difference between the transmit frequency and the receive frequency is equal to the low IF. A common frequency generator ( 300 ) is shared between the transmitter and receiver without needing to be retuned. An upconversion signal at the transmit frequency is used for down conversion in the receiver. Transceivers at opposite ends of a communication link, such as in a master/slave network, have their transmit and receive frequencies interchanged. Optionally a transceiver may be configurable to either form e.g. as either a master of a slave station. Channel sensing for Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) may be performed on the transmit frequency without retuning the receiver.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multiple cutting edge rotary tool having a radial individual adjustment of each cutting edge or having a central adjustment for all cutting edges together. The multiple cutting edge rotary tool used for machining has a number of holders that have, in the front part, cavities for accommodating cutting plates and have, in the area between their ends, a hole for passing through a fixing device with which each holder can be fixed to a support. The holder, on its portion that supports the cutting plate, can be elastically deflected in relation to a support by means of an adjusting device. In addition, the holder is provided with an opening and forms a parallel spiral spring arrangement whereby the cutting plate, during its adjustment, is essentially subjected to a parallel displacement with regard to the cutting edge. The adjusting device is provided in the form of a central adjusting screw which, as an axially adjustable differential screw, retains, by means of a lifting motion of the differential screw, the holder in a manner that permits it to be radially displaced in relation to its support and without play. The retention of said holder is effected by adjustable pressure pieces that are supported on parts of the adjusting screw.

Abstract: The invention concerns the use of phosphatidylserine (PS), lyso-phosphatidylserine or/and a physiologically acceptable salt thereof for the treatment of the attention deficit syndrome (ADHS) in small daily doses over a longer time period and in larger daily doses over a short period as well as in combination with suitable additives selected from the group comprising antioxidants, essential fatty acids, mineral substances, amino acids, mood-lifters or/and phospholipids. In this connection it is preferred to carry out the administration to probands aged 2 to 20 years preferably 3 to 10 years whereby the phosphatidylserine as well as the additives are used in solid and also in liquid formulations. Due to its positive properties phosphatidyl-serine is in particular suitable as a therapeutic agent or food supplement in connection with ADHS. The good tolerance of phosphatidylserine even in high doses and over a longer supplementation period and the excellent compliance should also be stressed.
