Patent HK-1045771-A1 (HK)
Title: Code division multiple access communication system.
Inventor: LOMP GARY R
IPC: H04B17/00
Filed: 2002-09-24
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>

Title: Flavour capsule for enhanced flavour delivery in cigarettes
Inventor: KARLES GEORGIOS
IPC: A23L27/00
Filed: 2008-04-30
Abstract: Improved delivery of additive materials to cigarettes is provided through the use of one or more capsules (10) containing additive materials, such as flavor components, in the filter section (40) of a cigarette. The sealed capsule or capsules are subjected to an external force, such as squeezing, by a smoker prior to or during smoking of the cigarette in order to release at least a portion of the additive material from the one or more capsules and expose the additive material to mainstream smoke passing through the filter. The sealed capsules provide a barrier between the additive materials and other cigarettes components, such as sorbents or filter materials, in order to reduce additive material migration into the other cigarette components prior to desired use.
Patent HK-1123139-A1 (HK)
Title: Reduced complexity channel estimation in ofdm systems ofdm
Inventor: SVENSSON JIM
IPC: H04L/
Filed: 2009-01-12
Abstract: A Doppler spread value of a channel in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is estimated, wherein the channel comprises a plurality of carrier frequencies. Estimating involves selecting a set of two or more carrier frequencies from the plurality of carrier frequencies. A Doppler spread value is estimated for each of the selected carrier frequencies. An estimate of the Doppler spread value of the channel is produced by combining the estimated Doppler spread values of each of the selected carrier frequencies. For example, the Doppler spread value of the channel may be estimated by averaging the estimated Doppler spread values of each of the selected carrier frequencies.
Patent HK-1150579-A1 (HK)
Title: Product feeding apparatus
Inventor: KIRBY RAYMOND GEORGE
IPC: B65B/
Filed: 2011-05-10
Abstract: Automatic feeding machines are commonly used for filling blister packs with items of product such as pharmaceutical dosage forms. These machines are usually designed for the handling of a specific shape and sized product item. Handling of different shaped items requires expensive re-tooling of all the product item contact components. The invention allows a single feeding machine to be quickly configured for use to handling a wide variety of item sizes/shapes. A machine (21) has a tray (36) defining a series of tapered channels (40) and a container (22) slideably mounted above the tray. A wall of the container and the channels together define apertures into each channel through which items of product pass out of the container. Sliding movement of the container across the planar tray surface (38), along and over the channels, allows the size of the apertures to be adjusted depending upon the size of the item of product to be handled, using the same components.

Title: Hbv core antigen particles with multiple immunogenic components attached via peptide ligands hbv
Inventor: MURRAY KENNETH
IPC: G01N/
Filed: 2002-02-21
Abstract: This invention relates to hepatitis B virus ("HBV") core antigen particles that are characterized by multiple immunogen specificities. More particularly, the invention relates to HBV core antigen particles comprising immunogens, epitopes, or other related structures, cross-linked thereto by ligands which are HBV capsid-binding peptides that selectively bind to HBV core protein. Such particles may be used as delivery systems for a diverse range of immunogenic epitopes, including the HBV capsid-binding peptides, which advantageously also inhibit and interfere with HBV viral assembly by blocking the interaction between HBV core protein and HBV surface proteins. Mixtures of different immunogens and/or capsid-binding peptide ligands may be cross-linked to the same HBV core particle. Such resulting multi-component or multivalent HBV core particles may be advantageously used in therapeutic and prophylactic vaccines and compositions, as well as in diagnostic compositions and methods using them.

Patent HK-1008088-A1 (HK)
Title: Measurement system
Inventor: GILL MICHAEL JOHN
IPC: G01F1/66
Filed: 1998-06-27
Abstract: A fluid measurement system includes two transducers 36, 37 which are located in a duct to provide a measuring path through a measuring tube 40. The transducers are switchable to allow each to be used for both transmission and reception and the speed of fluid passing through the measuring tube 40 will be dependent on the difference in time periods for a signal from the transducers passing with or against the fluid flow. A calibration mechanism employing an auxiliary transducer 56 with its own ultrasonic paths allows accurate measurement of speed of sound values to be determined for the particular fluid flowing and the particular system parameters including transducer delay. <IMAGE>

Patent HK-1013384-A1 (HK)
Title: Method and apparatus for scrambling and descrambling of video signals with edge fill
Inventor: RYAN JOHN O
IPC: H04H20/00
Filed: 1998-12-22
Abstract: A video-scrambling system induces a random wobble i.e., time shifting, in the location of active portion of the video frame, without affecting the horizontal sync signal and colorburst in each video line, thus providing both security and concealment. The security is enhanced by filling in the gap between the nominal beginning of active video and the actual beginning of active video with a synthesized video signal which replicates the adjacent active video using a digitally generated filling pattern. Also, a random noise overlay further conceals the location of the gap. Additional concealment is provided by wiggling in time the location of the horizontal sync signal using one or two frequencies and also by randomly altering the location of the vertical sync signal. The NTSC digital encoding in accordance with the invention is simplified by using only two channels, chrominance and luminance, and by a heterodyne circuit for chrominance stability. NTSC encoding is enhanced by providing detail normally lost, by use of the chroma channel. Additionally, a non-standard video signal may be provided with a portion of the colorburst on the front porch of the horizontal blanking, thus allowing use of a relatively simple decoder.
