Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système d'inspection placé dans un véhicule, par exemple une remorque, pouvant se déplacer sur route et permettant de détecter la présence d'objets ou des personne et de les examiner. Un tel véhicule comporte une enceinte en dur ou en toile renfermant une source de rayons pénétrants et un modulateur spatial transformant les rayons en faisceaux, tous deux entièrement intérieurs à l'enceinte, et qui permettent d'irradier un objet selon un profil de balayage variant dans le temps. Un premier détecteur produit un signal fonction de la rétrodiffusion des rayons pénétrants sur le contenu d'un objet, tandis qu'un deuxième détecteur produit un signal fonction de mouvement relatif de la remorque par rapport à l'objet examiné. On élabore une image basée en partie sur lesdits signaux. On peut en outre prévoir un détecteur, sensible aux produits de désintégration de matériaux radioactifs, intégré ou non au détecteur de rétrodiffusion.

Abstract: A flash NAND type EEPROM system with individual ones of an array of charge storage elements, such as floating gates, being capacitively coupled with at least two control gate lines. The control gate lines are preferably positioned between floating gates to be coupled with sidewalls of floating gates. The memory cell coupling ratio is desirably increased, as a result. Both control gate lines on opposite sides of a selected row of floating gates are usually raised to the same voltage while the second control gate lines coupled to unselected rows of floating gates immediately adjacent and on opposite sides of the selected row are kept low. The control gate lines can also be capacitively coupled with the substrate in order to selectively raise its voltage in the region of selected floating gates. The length of the floating gates and the thicknesses of the control gate lines can be made less than the minimum resolution element of the process by forming an etch mask of spacers.

Abstract: Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems are candidates for higher data rate wireless communication systems. Currently, for a single input single output (SISO) 1802.11a system can provide a transmission data rate up to 54 Mbps. The present invention is a 2 by 2 Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) system having a decoding apparatus that increases the data rate to over 100 Mbps but at a computation cost about the same as for optimal decoding for a SISO system and 1/64 of the optimal decoding for a 2 by 2 MIMO system. At a bit error rate (BER) of 10-4 level, the 2 by 2 MIMO system of the present invention provides double the transmission data rate of the SISO system with approximately the same signal to noise ratio (SNR).

Abstract: Protein S is a significant neuroprotectant when administered after focal ischemic stroke and prevents hypoxic/re-oxygenation injury. Purified human plasma-derived or recombinant protein S improves motor neurological function after stroke, and reduced brain infarction and edema. Protein S also enhances post-ischemic reperfusion and reduced brain fibrin and neutrophil deposition. Cortical neurons are protected from hypoxia/re-oxygenation-induced apoptosis. Thus, protein S and variants thereof are prototypes of a class of agents for preventing injury of the nervous system. In particular, a disease or other pathological condition (e.g., stroke) may be treated with such agents having one or more protein S activities (e.g., anti-thrombotic and anti-inflammatory activities, direct cellular neuronal protective effects) although the latter activities are not be required.
