Abstract: The transmitted power of a mobile telephone is established by power control bits that are transmitted in a traffic channel from a base station and that are demodulated by a rake receiver in the telephone. The rake receiver includes a plurality of demodulators that demodulate respective fingers of the traffic channel which may be caused by multipath conditions, with the power control bits from each demodulator being combined with the power control bits of the other demodulators in the rake receiver regardless of whether the demodulators are in lock with their respective fingers. The combined power control signal from a rake receiver associated with a first base station is then tested against a threshold. If the combined power is at least equal to the threshold, the combined power control signal is sent to a logic combiner. If other base stations are communicating with the mobile telephone, the combined power control signal from each of these other base stations is also sent to the logic combiner. If any power control signal commands the mobile telephone to decrease its transmitted power, it does so; otherwise, it increases its transmitted power. Alternatively, the power control bits from each demodulator in a rake receiver can be blocked if the finger energy falls below a threshold that depends on the number of fingers from the associated base station.

Abstract: An improved chemical vapor deposition apparatus and procedure is disclosed. The technique provides improved shielding of the reaction and deposition zones (26, 28) involved in providing CVD coatings by establishing a barrier zone (30) wherein gases flowing from a reaction zone (26) and deposition zone (28) to the ambient atmosphere are made to flow at a velocity of at least 15.24 m/min. Coatings can thus be produced, at atmospheric pressure, of materials which are sensitive to components in the atmosphere on substrates which are sensitive to high temperatures and which are too large, or inconvenient, to process in vacuum or similar chambers. The improved technique can be used with various energy sources and is particularly compatible with Combustion Chemical Vapor Deposition (CCVD) techniques. <IMAGE>

A selected portion of the PTPs being conveyed in the first conveying passage is pinched and separated from the same passage. The separated PTPs are bunched together while the spacing between the separated PTPs is narrowed in the conveying direction. The bunched PTPs are transferred onto a second conveying passage across the first conveying passage. The bunched PTPs are loaded into a bucket (57) provided on a bucket conveyor (50) which intermittently travels along the second conveying passage. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system and method are presented for stabilizing the electrical impedance of a structure (e.g., an electrical interconnecting apparatus) including a pair of parallel planar conductors separated by a dielectric layer. The structure may be, for example, a PCB, a component of a semiconductor device package, or formed upon a surface of an integrated circuit substrate. An electrical resistance connected between the planar conductors about a periphery of the structure serves to stabilize the electrical impedance of the structure, thereby reducing an amount of electromagnetic energy radiated from the structure. The electrical resistance may be multiple discrete electrical resistances dispersed about the periphery of the structure, and the structure need not be rectangular. For example, a portion of the periphery of the structure may define a curve. A general method for stabilizing the electrical impedance of the structure includes selecting a spacing distance. A grid is generated by superimposing two orthogonal sets of parallel lines upon one another, wherein the parallel lines within each set are separated by the spacing distance. The grid is dimensioned such that it completely covers the structure when overlayed upon the structure. The characteristic impedance of the structure may then be estimated using a physical dimension of the grid. The value of the electrical resistance may then be computed using the estimated characteristic impedance of the structure. The grid may also be used to determine the location of the discrete electrical resistances.

Abstract: A rivet-like bone anchor has a floating washer at its head that can adapt to an angled bone surface and, thereby, better secure a tissue thereto. The anchor includes a rivet, an expandable sleeve, and a washer. The rivet includes a head and an elongate body having proximal and distal ends, the head being mounted on the proximal end of the elongate body. The expandable sleeve has an inner bore adapted to receive the rivet body. The washer "floats" at a proximal end of the sleeve. As the rivet is inserted into sleeve, the sleeve expands into an interference fit with the bone. The head of the rivet, moreover, forces the floating washer into contact with the tissue at an angle that conforms to that of the underlying bone surface. A deployment tool permits the anchor to be deployed without application of unnecessary counterforce. The tool includes an outer tube, the distal end of which can hold the anchor housing, e.g., via a screw fit. A rod, which is slidably disposed within the bore of the tube, can be used to push the rivet into the expandable sleeve so that the sleeve expands into the bone, so that the floating washer is forced into position against the bone surface, and so that anchor is broken away from the housing. This can be effected, for example, by squeezing the distal ends of the outer tube and the rod together, e.g., in the manner that the end of a syringe is squeezed.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an effective method for the refolding of denatured proteins in solution so that properly folded, biologically active protein in solution is recovered in high yield. The refolding takes place at pressures between about 0.25 kbar to about 3.5 kbar, advantageously at about 1.5 kbar to about 3 kbar. Typically a chaotropic agent is present at a concentration which is not effective for denaturing protein at atmospheric pressure, and optionally, oxidation-reduction reagents can be incorporated in the refolding solution so that native intramolecular disulfide bonds can be formed where that is desired. The method is applicable to substantially all proteins, especially after solubilization and/or denaturation of insoluble protein aggregates, inclusion bodies, or abnormal oligomeric (soluble) aggregates.
