Title: Determining respiratory frequency derived from heart rate measurements
Inventor: MARTIKKA MIKKO
IPC: A61B5/346
Filed: 2007-05-08
Abstract: The physiological state of a person (e.g. energy consumption during exercise) is monitored by measuring the heartbeat of the person to obtain a pulse signal 101. Respiration frequency is derived directly from the measured pulse rate by considering the contribution of respiration to the pulse rate signal. The periodicity of the temporal variation of the pulse signal is determined using time stamps and the respiratory parameter is determined from the pulse rate periodicity. The pulse rate signal is time stamped 103 and these time stamps used to create a series 104, the period of which is related to the respiration frequency. Energy consumption is calculated from respiration frequency and other parameters (e.g. person's weight). The calculated energy consumption may be corrected for variations in rhythm of performance.

Title: Scene object tracking and camera network mapping based on image track start and end points
Inventor: BOGHOSSIAN BOGHOS
IPC: H04N5/14
Filed: 2010-07-19
Abstract: In a method of analyzing a sequence of video frames of a camera view field (FOV) to track an object, start (initial) 168 and end (final) 178 points of a track and corresponding start and end times are determined and stored as track attributes, e.g., metadata, for plural surveillance camera views. A temporal relationship between track end time in a first view field (FOV) and start time in a second view may be determined, giving the likelihood of transition of a track between view fields; the time relationship may be based on spatial relationships for start and end points or positions. Plural objects may be tracked, determining multiple point start / end zones (Figure 10). Tracked objects may be tagged, tracks ranked according to probabilities, and only the most likely tracks displayed for users. Also claimed is a method for displaying a network map of camera locations and a scene for a first camera field of view, including tagging (Figure 15) a scene object, determining other FOVs of network cameras in which the tagged object may possibly appear â   based on spatial / temporal exit or entry points â   and displaying possible routes in the network, satisfying the relationship.

Title: Transferring ions from high-pressure to a low-pressure region
Inventor: FRANZEN JOCHEN
IPC: H01J49/04
Filed: 2010-08-26
Abstract: The invention relates to the gas-assisted transport of ions from an ion source into the vacuum system of, for example, a mass spectrometer. The invention uses a nozzle 3, preferably a Laval nozzle (see Figure 3), to form a supersonic gas jet 7. After passing through a first vacuum chamber, the supersonic gas jet 7 is directed into a separate pump chamber 9, out of which the gas is pumped off without burdening the remaining vacuum system. The entrained ions are extracted from the supersonic gas jet electrically or magnetically in the first vacuum chamber, and are collected and transmitted on, for example by an RF ion funnel 13. Since far fewer ions are lost in the nozzle than in conventional inlet systems, and since several times more gas can be introduced per unit of time, the quantity of ions introduced into the vacuum per unit of time can be increased by factors of ten to fifty.

Title: Multipole ion guide and ion reactor
Inventor: STOERMER CARSTEN
IPC: H01J49/02
Filed: 2011-05-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a linear multipole ion storage device which is suitable for reactions between positive and negative ions and for fragmentation reactions by electron transfer dissociation (ETD) in particular. The invention uses a linear RF ion trap with at least three pairs of rods 50, 51, 52, 53, 54 and 55 with anew type of electronic power supply. As usual, the two phases of a first RF voltage 72 are applied to the pole rods alternately around the circumference and confine positive as well as negative ions in the radial direction. A second RF voltage 76 is either applied single-phase to some of the pole rods, but not to all of there, or two-phase to unequal numbers of pole rods. This means the axis potential oscillates with the frequency of this second RF voltage and generates a pseudopotential barrier which acts axially on ions of both polarities at the ends of the ion storage device. In the interior, the second RF produces a complex superposition field resulting in an increased fragmentation yield for ETD.

Title: Flux-switching permanent magnet electric motor
Inventor: DEODHAR RAJESH PRANAY
IPC: H02K1/18
Filed: 2010-11-05
Abstract: An electric motor (fig 2C) comprises a stator 12 having plural permanent magnets 13 and plural electro-magnets 14 and a rotor having a rotation axis 15 with respect to the stator. An axially extending stator cover comprises plural magnetic portions 21; is arranged immediately adjacent to an axial end face of the stator; and is movable relative to the stator. The stator cover can rotate relative to the stator, coaxially with the rotor; or move axially with respect to the stator. The stator cover can alternatively be adjacent the outer surface of the stator and move circumferentially, radially or axially with respect to the stator. A magnetic portion of the cover can move between positions that are remote from or proximate to a permanent magnet 13 and overlap an adjacent electro-magnet. Magnetic portions can be uniform in cross section, or non-uniform having a radially increasing (fig 7B, 7C) or stepped (fig 7D) thickness. The cover thickness can be adapted to minimise the iron loss of the motor. Magnetic portions 21 can be: coupled together by non-magnetic portions 22; formed of iron; of a length equal to that of the permanent magnets; and of thickness between 2 and 30 mm. Movement of the stator cover allows for control of the efficiency of the electric motor which can be a flux-switching permanent magnet electric motor, and be applied to a vehicle drive train or an industrial machine such as a pump.

Title: Automatic gain control in a data receiver
Inventor: HEARNE PETER ANTHONY
IPC: H03G3/30
Filed: 2012-01-31
Abstract: The gain of an amplifier 12 in a data receiver is controlled so that high speed serial data 10 may be successfully received. The amplifier acts on a received signal waveform 10 and, after amplification and equalisation, a gain control sampler 19gain compares the waveform with a reference level Vtarget that is the desired level for data with a binary pattern of 111. The gain control sampler provides a set of test bits in a register 29 and the level of the gain applied by the amplifier to the signal waveform is adjusted on the basis of the number of test bits in the set that have a binary value of 1. A population counter 40 is connected to the register of test bits to count the number of binary 1s. The invention can cope with signal waveforms of small amplitude and so can be used during an initial period.

Title: Multiply accumulate block using multiple sub-word multipliers in multiple steps
Inventor: LANGHAMMER MARTIN
IPC: G06F7/53
Filed: 2012-03-05
Abstract: A multiply accumulate block, in an integrated circuit, comprises a number multipliers 401, 402 to multiply operands in a number of clock cycles. For example, two 18-bit multipliers may be used to multiply 36   bit operands in two clock cycles. Alternatively, four 18-bit multipliers may be used to multiply 54   bit operands in four clock cycles. Each multiplier carries out a multiplication on each clock cycle. The results of the multipliers are shifted 406 by different amounts on each clock cycle before being added to an accumulator. The integrated circuit may be a programmable logic device. The block may be clocked faster than the rate of the rest of the circuit, to enable a complete multiplication to be carried out on each circuit clock cycle. Alternatively, the block may be clocked on both the rising and falling edges of the clock.
