Title: Downlink power control method for multicast service in mobile radio networks
Inventor: D ONOFRIO GIOVANNI
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2003-06-25
Abstract: The method involves measuring a quality parameter of a multicast signal, and comparing the quality with a quality threshold. The quality measure is transmitted to a base station when the threshold is not surpassed. A multicast service is transmitted on channels when a reporting threshold is not surpassed. A power of the signal is calculated based on the measure and channels for keeping the power above the quality threshold. An independent claim is also included for a mobile radio system to carry out a method to control transmission power of a multicast service transmitted from a base station.

Abstract: A rack shaft (110) has a rolling contact surface (110b)
on the opposite side of rack teeth (110a) across an axis
line X, and a pair of slanted surfaces (110c, 110c) extending
in parallel with the axis line across the rolling contact
surface (110b). Furthermore, a roller (123) rolling on the
rolling contact surface (110b) of the rack shaft (110) and
an urging member (130) having contact with the pair of slanted
surfaces (110c, 110c) for applying an urging force are
provided. The urging member (130) is attached to the housing
(101), forms an annular configuration surrounding the entire
circumference of the rack shaft (110), and has contact
portions (130b, 130b) having contact with the pair of slanted
surfaces (110c, 110c) to apply the urging force. Therefore,
the force exerted on the rack shaft (110) by a pinion (103a)
can be supported by a cylindrical roller (123) contacting
with the rolling contact surface (110b). Moreover, it is
possible to restrain a rotational displacement of the rack
shaft (110) about the axis line by applying the urging force
against the pair of slanted surfaces (110c, 110c) of the
rack shaft (110) by the contacting portions (130b, 130b)
of the urging member (130). Also, since the urging member
(130) has an annular configuration, it is advantageously
possible to easily attach or detach the urging member (130)
to or from the housing (101) without using a connecting member 
such as adhesive or a screw.

Abstract: A simple yet effective method of increasing production of a thermo-stable virus, such as adenovirus and picornavirus, is presented. The method entails a temperature shift strategy whereby the culture of host cells are shifted to a sub-optimal temperature for a period of time prior to virus infection or cells are grown at a sub-optimal level for the entire cell expansion process including one or more than one passages of cell growth from cryopreserved cells, followed by a shift back to a more optimal temperature at or near the time of virus infection of the respective host cells. Adaptation of such a temperature shift strategy present a simple yet effective method to substantially increase recoverable virus within a respective host cell/virus production scheme without the need to further manipulate other culture and/or media conditions within an established host cell/virus production scheme.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for magnetic resonance imaging of at least a portion of a body placed in a stationary and substantially homogeneous main magnetic field. The body is subjected to a sequence of RF and magnetic field gradient pulses during an interval TSE, thereby generating a plurality of spin echo signals, which are measured and processed for reconstruction of an image. Thereafter, during an interval TDRV, an additional spin echo is generated by subjecting the body to at least one further refocusing RF pulse and/or magnetic field gradient pulse, and a RF drive pulse (βX) is irradiated at the time of this additional spin echo. In order to provide a fast and reliable method for T1-weighted imaging, which gives a high T1 contrast and also a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio, the phase of the RF drive pulse (βX) is selected such that nuclear magnetization at the time of the additional spin echo is transformed into negative longitudinal magnetization. The sequence is repeated beginning with another sequence of RF and magnetic field gradient pulses after a recovery period TREC.

Abstract: A protrusion 10 of a distal hood component 9 fitted to
a distal end 3 of an endoscope 1 is formed from a
elastically deformable soft component. When the distal end
10 is pressed against an observation target 13 and the
protrusion 10 is deformed due to an external force at that
time, a part 10a thereof is entered into the range of the
observational field of view 12. Consequently, the surgeon
becomes aware that the protrusion 10 is deformed and,
therefore, does not press the end of the protrusion 10
against the observation target 13 with a further force, so
that the patient can have a reduced uncomfortable feeling.
Since the external force applied to the protrusion 10 is
relieved by the elastic deformation of the protrusion,
damage to the distal hood component can be prevented from
occurring.
