Abstract: The present invention provides a universal receiver (OTR) device which functions within a vehicle in the "under-the-hood" (UTH) environment such that various types of tire pressure management system (TPMS) device, located within, upon or near a vehicle's tires can transmit tire information, such as the transmitter identification number (TIN), the tire unique identifier (TUID), the vehicle identification number (VIN), tire pressure, tire temperature, tire rotation, and other tire relevant data, to the OTR for further processing regardless of frequency, data transfer speed, or data format of the TPMS device. The OTR device in sequence: identifies the TPMS  device, receives the tire information from the TPMS device, and processes the tire information into date records for efficient and optimized transmission of such data records for future analysis both within and off a vehicle. The OTR  also interfaces with various types of telematics devices, regardless of the type of transmission or protocol used, by identifying the type of telematics device. The OTR also stores or retrieves information related to various telematics and TPMS devices in order to identify these devices. For example, an automotive manufacturer, dealership, or tire distributor would be able to select various manufacturers' TPMS and telematics devices for installation within the vehicle and with the OTR collect previously captured TPMS data for further analysis.

Abstract: A modular intraluminal stent graft. The intraluminal stent graft is bifurcated having a primary section and a secondary section extending therefrom. The primary section tapers from a larger diameter at an upstream end to a smaller diameter at a downstream end. The downstream end of the primary section has a pair of independent openings each having an expanded diameter. The secondary section provides a first endoleg having an upstream end that is received through the expanded diameter of one opening of the primary section, and a second endoleg having an upstream end that is received through the second opening of the primary section. The upstream ends ofeach endoleg, in its expanded state, is larger than the downstream portion of the respective endolegs and expands within the primary section to help assemble the graft in situ. The first and second endolegs also expand within the respective openings each is received within to assemble the stent graft in situ as well. The primary section is positioned within a blood vessel trunk, whereas the endolegs of the secondary section are positioned within a blood vessel branched from the blood vessel trunk. A typical application would be to place the primary section within the abdominal aorta infrarenally, with the endolegs positioned in the ipsilateral and contralaterial iliacs, respectively. By minimizing the number of stent segments in the primary section of the stent graft a lower delivery profile is achieved.
