Patent EP-1401853-B1 (EP)
Inventor: SULLENGER BRUCE A
IPC: C07H21/04
Filed: 2002-05-28
Granted: 2010-09-22
Abstract: The biological activity of nucleic acid ligand is regulated (i.e. enhanced or inhibited) in vivo to produce a desired biological effect. This is accomplished through the administration of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a modulator that changes the binding of the nucleic acid ligand for its target or that degrades or otherwise cleaves, metabolizes or breaks down the nucleic acid ligand while the ligand is still exerting its effect. Modulators of the present invention can be administered in real time as needed based on various factors including the progress of the patient, as well as the physician's discretion in how to achieve optimal therapy. Thus, this invention provides for the first time a regulatable therapeutic regime in the course of nucleic acid ligand therapy.

Title: Controllable antenna arrangement
Inventor: SAGER MADS
IPC: H01Q5/378
Filed: 2002-11-20
Granted: 2009-06-10
Abstract: An antenna ( 11 ) includes a patch antenna element ( 22 ) capacitively coupled to a load patch ( 27 ). A switch ( 33 ) connects the load patch ( 27 ) to one of one or more strip lines ( 35, 37, 40 ), each of which has a different length. Each strip lines causes the load patch ( 27 ) to have a different impedance, with one causing a short circuit, one causing an open circuit, and one causing an impedance in between these extremes. Different impedances of the load patch ( 27 ) cause different frequencies of operation of the antenna patch ( 22 ) by virtue of the capacitive coupling therebetween. The antenna ( 11 ) is thereby tuneable to three separate frequencies. Other frequency bands are unaffected by virtue of the location of the load patch ( 27 ) relative to the antenna patch ( 22 ). By allowing tuning by way of controlling the impedance of the load patch ( 27 ), the antenna arrangement can be made smaller than a corresponding passive antenna operable at the same frequencies. By using an N throw switch, N strip lines of different lengths can be connected, each giving rise to a different operating frequency.

Abstract: A modulated optical radiation field (I) whose modulation amplitude and temporal phase depend on the local position can be detected with a plurality of pixels 1. Each pixel 1 consists of a transducing stage (T) that converts incoming light (I) into a proportional electric signal, a sampling stage (S), two subtraction/summation stages (SUB1, SUM1; SUB2, SUM2), and an output stage. Each pixel can be addressed individually. The optical radiation field (I) is locally sensed and sampled at a frequency that is four times the wavefield's modulation frequency. The subtraction/summation stages (SUB1, SUM1; SUB2, SUM2) accumulate differences of two samples per modulation period, separated by half the period, during several averaging periods; the two stages are time shifted with respect to each other by a quarter period. The resulting two output signals are employed for the determination of the local envelope amplitude and the temporal phase. These pixels 1 can be realized with circuits that consume very little electric power and require small areas, enabling the realization of large numbers of pixels in linear or two-dimensional array sensors. <IMAGE>
