Abstract: The machine works independently of the rows of maize and similar stem type crops, having two ro more tined mowing and intake drums each side of the vertical central plane at which the chopping mechanism with intake drums is situated. The drums are supplied via passages formed between vertical walls. In plan view, the walls (22) run in an undulating pattern on both sides of the central plane. Their trough portions (23) following the peripheries (30) of the intake and mowing drums (6-8). At each intervening crest (24) is a transverse conveyor drum (25) with protruding tines and on a vertical axis, the tines protruding through the wall (22) into the passage. The undulations in the walls can form a flat sinusoidal curve. The innermost intake and mower drums closest to the central plane can be of the same diameter, with their axis in a common transverse plane.

Abstract: The transmission method involves allowing COFDM modulated radio signals to be transmitted via a satellite system, in which the radio signal is subjected to a delay at the satellite. The sum of the satellite delay and the overall signal propagation time, between a ground transmitter and the satellite, and the satellite and a ground receiver, is equal to a constant time offset. The received signal may be delayed via a controlled delay device (20) at each satellite, in response to a control signal from a control device (40), and dependent on the distance from the uplink station and the satellite, and the distance of the satellite from a fixed reference point on the ground.

Abstract: Arterial blood pressure of a subject is determined by detecting the EKG for the subject and selecting a fiducial point on the EKG during a pulse. Apparatus is provided for monitoring blood volume versus time at a selected location on the subject's body such as a fingertip. A time difference between the occurrence of the selected fiducial point on the EKG and a selected change in blood in volume at the selected body location is determined. This time difference depends on the arrival time of the pulse at the distal location in addition to the shape of the blood volume versus time curve. Heart rate is determined from the EKG. The arterial pressure is computed from pulse arrival time, volumetric wave shape and instantaneous heart rate for each pulse. It is preferred that the fiducial point on the EKG be an R-wave. A suitable method for determining change in blood volume utilizes photoplethysmography. Methods are disclosed for determining diastolic pressure, systolic and mean arterial pressure. In another aspect, artifact detection and rejection enabled. The invention provides for a continuous measure of blood pressure in a non-invasive, cuffless manner.

Abstract: Deux mémoires de positions d'utilisateurs permanents (HLR) sont associées l'une à l'autre par attribution de deux codes de capacité. Un premier code de capacité est utilisé pour fournir un soutien au système par l'une des mémoires (HLR) chaque fois que l'autre mémoire (HLR) est défaillante. Le second code de capacité est utilisé pour mettre à jour en permanence la base de données de l'une par la base de données de l'autre de ces mémoires, au moyen des informations d'abonnés les plus récentes. Lors d'une défaillance d'une mémoire HLR particulière, les points de transfert de signal (STP) associés réacheminent les signaux arrivant, destinés à la mémoire HLR défaillante, vers la mémoire HLR qui lui est associée. Cette mémoire HLR associée compare le code de point de destination du signal reçu avec son premier code de capacité, pour déterminer si elle est autorisée à traiter ce signal. S'il y a correspondance, la mémoire HLR associée traite de façon automatique et transparente le signal reçu, sans interruption ou retard de service. Chaque fois que l'une des mémoires HLR reçoit de nouvelles données d'abonnés, les mêmes données sont communiquées à l'autre mémoire HLR, par utilisation de son second code de capacité comme adresse de destination.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of displaying nascent proteins or peptides as complexes with eukaryotic ribosomes and the mRNA encoding the protein or peptide following transcription and translation in vitro, of further selecting complexes carrying a particular nascent protein or peptide by means of binding to a ligand, antigen or antibody, and of subsequently recovering the genetic information encoding the protein or peptide from the selected ribosome complex by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The RT-PCR recovery step is carried out directly on the intact ribosome complex, without prior dissociation to release the mRNA, thus contributing to maximal efficiency and sensitivity. The steps of display, selection and recovery can be repeated in consecutive cycles. The method is exemplified using single-chain antibody constructs as antibody-ribosome-mRNA complexes (ARMs).
