Abstract: Missile (10) includes one or more of barrel assemblies (11) which are displaced from the centre of gravity of missile (10). Each barrel assembly (11) includes a plurality of projectiles axially disposed within the barrel, and each projectiles is associated with a discrete propellant charge for propelling the projectile sequentially from the barrel. Each array of barrel assemblies (11) is capable of selectively firing the projectiles from selected barrels whereby missile (10) is accelerated by the reactionary force generated by said firing of projectiles and the missile is deflected onto a new course or trajectory. This enables missile (10) to be steered to intercept its target even if the target is undertaking evasive manoeuvre. Each barrel assembly (11) can include up to twelve projectiles.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un neurostimulateur programmable et sur des procédés apparentés ; ce neurostimulateur se caractérisant par une conception modulaire comprend : une partie interne basée sur un circuit intégré spécifique mixte (ASIC) donnant accès à une commande complète sur les charges injectées, et un nouveau concept de canal permet d'effectuer toute stratégie de stimulation et d'utiliser tout mode de stimulation (monopolaire, bipolaire, quadripolaire, ...) ; et une partie externe, formée autour d'un processeur de signaux numériques (DSP) et ayant une architecture numérique qui permet de programmer tout algorithme de traitement de signaux, et de mémoriser différents algorithmes et différentes stratégies de stimulation devant être utilisés et sélectionnés par le patient lui-même. Un algorithme permet d'utiliser autant de filtres que nécessaire et de sélectionner leurs caractéristiques et leurs canaux associés. Un procédé de stimulation basé sur un vecteur de quantification utilise un ensemble fini de sons élémentaires définissant toutes les caractéristiques vocales de telle façon que le patient soit exposé à un nombre limité de séquences de stimulation permettant l'identification complète des phonèmes vocaux. Un procédé de stimulation à base de paquets en ondelettes est mis au point par rapport à de nouvelles stratégies de stimulation multi-résolution, multi-rythme qui n'ont jamais été utilisées auparavant. Un matériel approprié ainsi qu'un logiciel clinique à interface très conviviale supportent tous ces aspects.
