Abstract: Entities of a wireless communication network adjacent to a given sending entity, i.e. entities of the network from which the sending entity is able to receive messages are identified. Among the adjacent entities, a minimum constellation associated with the sending entity is further identified as the smallest set of entities adjacent to the sending entity and included in a circle centered on the sending entity such that at least three of the entities of the set form a convex polygon circumscribing the sending entity. The transmitting power of the sending entity is then adjusted to a value sufficient for the messages sent by the sending entity to reach all the entities of the minimum constellation associated therewith.

Abstract: To increase the adhesion strength of coagulated blood on an untreated surface (30) by increasing the surface interaction of blood-inherent components (32,33,34) like fibrin/fibrinogen and thrombocytes it is described to treat the surface by exposing it to ionized atoms or molecules thereby reaching at a plasma treated surface (31). The surface treatment according to the invention is applied on plastic disposables used in blood diagnostics (e.g. haemostasis analysis) as well as medical implants like artery sealings. The improved blood clot adhesion results in higher diagnostic security due to reduced measurement failure (e.g., for patients with increased thrombocyte content) and in better significance of special tests (e.g., hyperfibrinolysis diagnosis).

Abstract: A hemming method for performing a 180 degree hem between an inner panel (26) and outer metal panel (24). A curved prehemming tool (54) is then moved in a direction (58) substantially parallel to the plane of the inner and outer panels so that the prehemming tool contacts a protruding coupon (32) on the outer panel and creates a bend line in the coupon at a position spaced outwardly from the outer edge of the inner panel. Thereafter, a final hemming tool (70) moves relative to the panels in a direction substantially parallel to the original plane of the inner and outer panels. This final hemming tool includes a first curved surface (72) which initially contacts the coupon and rolls the coupon such that the edge of the coupon contacts the inner panel. Thereafter, a generally planar wedge section (76) of the final hemming tool contacts the coupon and compresses the coupon against the inner panel thus completing the hemming operation.

Granted: 2011-06-22
Abstract: A method of unlocking a mobile terminal after a period of use and ensuring that the first operator who sold the terminal receives adequate payment prior to the use thereof. The identity of the terminal is saved and a security algorithm, which is not known to the operator, is implemented in a security module which is introduced into a server that is managed by the operator. After the period of use, the security module determines a secret key which is obtained by applying the terminal identity transmitted thereby and an operator code to the security algorithm, following a request transmitted by the service entity. The determined secret key, which is encrypted at the terminal, is transmitted over the operator's radiocommunications network and decrypted in the mobile terminal so that it can be compared to the saved secret key in order for the mobile terminal to be unlocked when the compared secret keys are identical.

Abstract: A method of surface finishing a bone implant comprises the steps of roughening a surface of the implant by blasting with abrasive particles and then pickling the surface-roughened implant in a pickling solution in order to loosen any partially embedded abrasive blasting particles that may be contaminating the surface of the implant. Thereafter the roughened surface of the implant is cleaned by mechanical action to detach the loosened abrasive particles therefrom. The pickling and cleaning steps are not intended to produce any additional roughening of the treated surface, which should be structured to the required roughness by the initial abrasive blasting, typically such that the Ra and Rt roughness parameters are 3¤ Ra ¤7 µm and 20¤ Rt ¤70 µm respectively.

Abstract: A teleconferencing system that integrates separate real-time and asynchronous networks - the former for real-time audio and video, and the latter for control signals and textual, graphical and other data - in a manner which closely approximates the experience of face-to-face collaboration. The system provides an audio/video (AV) path (13) for carrying AV signal among the workstations, a video mosaic generator (36) for combining images, and an audio summer or mixer (38). At least part of the AV path (13b) is implemented with unshielded twisted pair wiring. The system architecture is readily scalable to the largest enterprise network environments. It accommodates differing levels of collaborative capabilities available to individual users and permits high-quality audio and video capabilities to be readily superimposed onto existing personal computers and workstations (12) and their interconnecting LANs (10) and WANs (15). In the case of a plurality of geographically dispersed LANs (10) interconnected by a WAN (15), the demands made on the WAN are significantly reduced by employing multi-hopping techniques, including avoiding the unnecessary decompression of data at intermediate hops, as well as video mosaicing and cut-and-paste technology.
