Inventor: GEE GREG
IPC: H04W28/18
Filed: 2001-07-20
Abstract: A communication system having a proxy architecture is disclosed. The system includes a platform that provides performance enhancing functions. The platform includes a backbone connection apparatus that routes information within a communication system. The backbone connection apparatus receives backbone connection parameters from the platform and maintains the current parameters in one or more backbone connection profiles. The backbone connection apparatus routes packets of information throughout the communication system based on the backbone connection profile. The backbone connection apparatus supports the use of different backbone protocol for different types of backbone links. Further, in a configuration where multiple backbone links of different types exist, the backbone connection apparatus supports the use of a different backbone protocol for each type of link at the same time. The above arrangement has particular applicability to a bandwidth constrained communication system, such as a satellite network.

Title: New cancer treatments
Inventor: SMITH PETER MICHAEL
IPC: A61P35/00
Filed: 1999-12-09
Abstract: The invention here relates to a product comprised of a cell line or lines intended for use as an allogeneic immunotherapy agent for the treatment of cancer in mammals and humans. All of the studies of cell-based cancer vaccin es to date have one feature in common, namely the intention to use cells that contain at least some TSAs and/or TAAs that are shared with the antigens present in patients' tumour. In each case, tumour cells are utilised as the starting point on the premise that only tumour cells will contain TSAs or TA As of relevance, and the tissue origins of the cells are matched to the tumour site in patients. A primary aspect of the invention is the use of immortalis ed normal, non-malignant cells as the basis of an allogeneic cell cancer vaccin e. Normal cells do not possess TSAs or relevant concentrations of TAAs and henc e it is surprising that normal cells are effective as anti-cancer vaccines. Fo r prostate cancer, for example, a vaccine may be based on one or a combination  of different immortalised normal cell lines derived from the prostate. The cell lines are lethally irradiated utilising gamma irradiation at 50-300 Gy to ensure that they are replication incompetent prior to use in the mammal or human.

Cette fonction es t formée en déterminant les probabilités d'appartenance des objets aux différentes catégories en tenant compte d'incertitudes sur les paramètres sous la forme d'intervalles de largeur variable. On affecte alors, si possible, chaque objet à une, ou plusieurs catégories prédéfinies, en fonction de la valeur relative des intervalles de probabilit é. - Applications à la reconnaissance d'objets géologiques dans une formation souterraine, au traitement d'image, au traitement du signal (par exemple à la télédétection, à l'imagerie médicale, etc).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for digitally demodulating QPSK signals includes a first portion in which the digitally sampled data burst is resampled with a plurality of predetermined timing hypotheses. The timing offset is determined according to an analysis of the resampled data. The digitally sampled data burst is then resampled according to the timing estimation. Modulation of the resampled data burst is then removed by twice squaring the complex I/Q pairs.  The data with the modulation removed is then subjected to a Chirp-Z Transform to move the data into the frequency domain. The highest spectral power is used to determine the frequency offset. The phase offset is determined and the resampled data burst is derotated and dephased according to the phase offset and the frequency offset.
