The prosthetic valve has the shape of a truncated cone that has an inflow and an outflow orifice with leaflets forming the outflow orifice and forming a plurality of commissures. A first flexible circular support (17) is affixed in a substantially circular fashion around the truncated cone in proximity of the inflow orifice, and a second flexible circular support (18) is affixed at the location of the commissures to form a circle around the truncated cone in proximity of the outflow orifice. The circular supports maintain the shape of the valve during the surgical implantation procedure and thereafter.

Abstract: The use of multiple states of mobile communication device (14) operation to allow a single base station (12) to support a relatively large number of mobile nodes (14, 16) is described. The various states require different amounts of communications resources, e.g., bandwidth. Four supported states of operation are a on-state (404), a hold-state (410), a sleep-state (408), and an access-state (402). Each mobile node in the on-state (404) is allocated communication resources to perform transmission power control signaling, transmission timing control signaling and to transmit data as part of a data uplink communications operation. Each mobile node in the hold-state (410) is allocated communication resources to perform transmission timing control signaling and is provided a dedicated uplink for requesting a state transition and a shared resource for transmitting acknowledgements. In the sleep state (408) a mobile node is allocated minimal resources and does not conduct power control signaling or timing control signaling.

Abstract: Receivers accommodating carrier frequency selection methods in wireless communications systems employing multiple carrier frequencies are described.  Although the receiver is tuned to a single band, an estimate of the channel quality corresponding to the currently used carrier and an alternative carrier is generated without switching between carriers. Transmitters of different cells and/or different sectors primarily use different carrier frequencies but periodically transmit using a neighboring sector's carrier frequency. Mobile node receivers use a single RF chain with a controllable RF filter to receive and process a signal within a first selected carrier band including two components, a first signal component identified with the first currently selected band and a second signal component identified with a second alternative band. Separate quality indicator values are obtained from the first and second signal components, compared, and a determination is made as to whether the receiver's RF filter should be switched to the second band.
