Title: Base station transmission beam pattern forming; interference reduction
Inventor: KHALAB JAMAL MUFTAH
IPC: H04B7/06
Filed: 1999-04-16
Abstract: A base station identifies, for a particular or desired mobile user, one or more other mobile users that are to be treated as vulnerable users potentially adversely affected by a downlink signal transmission from the base station to the desired user. A downlink transmission beam pattern is then formed which has a main beam with a direction matching the direction of the desired user and one or more nulls matching the direction or directions of one or more vulnerable users. Transmission data rate to the desired user and/or distance to the desired user may be used as criteria in determining whether this transmission is likely to render other users vulnerable to interference. A user data register (UDR) 14 stores data including direction of arrival (DOA) data for signals received by the base station from the desired and vulnerable users. From data in the UDR 14, a selection unit 16 determines one or more of: the DOA information for the desired user, distances of users from the base station, users who are close to high bit rate users, and users close to clusters of other users. From that data, a list of vulnerable users is generated by the unit 16 which sends the direction information for the desired and vulnerable users to an optimum weights unit 12 which calculates weights input to a downlink beamformer 20 so that the required beam pattern may be formed by transmission antenna elements. Any users for whom provision of a null would degrade the pattern for the desired user are removed from the vulnerable list. Where there is a cluster of vulnerable users, a null may be formed in the mean direction of the cluster. With N transmission antenna elements, N- 1 nulls can be formed, so that if there are more than N-1 vulnerable users, the N- 1 most vulnerable users are selected. The receiving section of the base station may have an adaptive beamformer with an adaptive algorithm 26 which inputs a weight vector to a vector multiplier 22. A direction of arrival (DOA) determining unit 30 estimates the DOA of a user from the weight vector. The unit 30 may estimate the DOA by finding the peak of the uplink beam pattern, eg. by calculating the uplink beamformer gain at different DOAs and identifying the DOA for which the gain is the highest.

Title: Position determination in multi-beam satellite
Inventor: WYRWAS RICHARD
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 1999-08-10
Abstract: An earth station (11) generates a position determining signal, which includes an indication of the time at which it is transmitted, and is relayed by the satellite (10) to all user terminals (13) within the coverage (16) of a single global beam (108). A phased antenna (42, 44) on the satellite may be used to generate both the global position determining beam and spot beams (30) for communications. The earth station monitors the global beam, noting any errors in delay between the satellite and the earth station, in order to correct the positional signal by adjusting the time signal. An iterative method may be used to correct the user terminal's internal clock, whereby drift is compensated, resulting in improved position estimates for the user terminal.

Patent HU-T73297-A (HU)
Title: Bone stimulating factor
Inventor: TAM CHERK SHING
IPC: C12P21/08
Filed: 1994-03-14
Abstract: A polypeptide substance isolated from rat serum which, upon administration to rats incapable of producing PTH (parathyroidectomized rats), produces an increase in the observed bone mineral apposition rate. The substance has been isolated in two forms, a first larger polypeptide having a molecular weight about twice that of a second smaller polypeptide. The first eleven amino acids of the sequence of the smaller polypeptide have been determined to be Gly Pro Gly Gly Ala Gly Glu Thr Lys Pro Ile. The first seven amino acids of the larger polypeptide have been determined to be Gly Pro Gly Gly Ala Gly Glu. The larger polypeptide might be the dimer of the smaller peptide. A nucleic acid probe, based on the amino acid sequence of the rat peptide was used to screen a human liver cDNA fetal library. A polypeptide was thus chemically synthesized according to the sequence Gly Ile Gly Lys Arg Thr Asn Glu His Thr Ala Asp Cys Lys Ile Lys Pro Asn Thr Leu His Lys Lys Ala Ala Glu Thr Leu Met Val Leu Asp Gln Asn Gln Pro. The bone apposition rate in rats increases in a dose dependent fashion upon administration of this chemically synthesized compound.
