Abstract: A catalytic trap effective for conversion of NOx in an exhaust gas stream is inert to high-temperature reaction with basic oxygenated compounds of lithium, sodium or potassium. The catalytic trap may be substantially free of silica components and may include a catalytic trap material which contains a refractory metal oxide support, e.g., alumina, having dispersed thereon a catalytic component, such as a platinum group metal catalytic component, and an NOx sorbent comprised of one or more of the basic oxygenated compounds. The catalytic trap material is coated onto a suitable carrier member, such as one made from stainless steel, titanium, alumina, titania, zirconia or silica-leached cordierite. A method of treating an NOx-containing gas stream involves maintaining the gas stream in alternating periods of (1) lean and (2) rich or stoichiometric conditions and contacting the gas stream with the catalytic trap under conditions in which NOx is adsorbed during periods of lean operation and released and reduced to nitrogen during periods of rich operation.

Abstract: A multi-band transceiver for receiving and transmitting signals within selected GSM frequency bands. Transmission and reception occurs simultaneously and within the same time slot of a TDMA frame. The transceiver includes a first local oscillator LO1 that selectively oscillates within a bandwidth corresponding to the selected GSM band and outputs a signal having a frequency fLO1. A second local oscillator LO2 selectively oscillates at a frequency corresponding to the selected GSM band and outputs a signal having a frequency fLO2. A receiver receives a signal having a frequency fRx and mixes the signals from the first and second local oscillators to generate a demodulating signal having a frequency fRx, wherein fRx=fLO1±fLO2. A transmitter having a loop architecture includes a VCO that generates a signal having a transmit frequency fTx equal to fRx minus a comparison frequency fCF, and a mixer that mixes the signal from the first local oscillator with the transmit signal to generate an IF signal having a frequency fIF=fLO2±fCF. A quadrature mixer that modulates the IF signal with baseband "I" and "Q" signals, and a phase detector that compares the phases of the IF signal and the signal from the second local oscillator and outputs a control voltage to the VCO.

Abstract: A method for customizing the fit of a saddle to a given horse and apparatuses thereof. The method comprises a step of inserting under a saddle disposed on the horse's back, a cushion pad previously shaped to uniformly distribute the pressure of the saddle on the horse. The method may further comprise a step of shaping the cushion pad by disposing on the horse's back an impression pad which contains a putty-like material to imprint the relief pattern of the pressure distribution of a saddle disposed on the horse's back. This is followed by setting the saddle on the impression pad, by riding the horse to imprint a relief pattern of the pressure distribution of the saddle on the impression pad, and by shaping the cushion pad by reproducing the relief pattern of the impression pad.

Abstract: An encoder uses an input file of data and a key to produce a group of output symbols. A group of output symbols with key I is generated by determining a weight, W(I), for the group of output symbols to be generated, selecting W(D) of the input symbols associated with the group according to a function of I, and generating the output symbol values B(I) from a predetermined value function F(I) of the selected W(I) input symbols. An encoder can be called repeatedly to generate multiple groups of output symbols or multiple output symbols. The groups of output symbols are generally independent of each other, and an unbounded number (subject to the resolution of I) can be generated, if needed. A decoder receives some or all of the output symbols generated. The number of output symbols needed to decode an input file is equal to, or slightly greater than, the number of input symbols comprising the file, assuming that input symbols and output symbols represent the same number of bits of data.

Abstract: This invention consists of an inhaler capable of administering powdered medicaments contained in a capsule through the respiratory tract. It's a pen-shaped device formed by a container that preserves the capsules, arranged in vertical parallel lines, and a block comprising two or more separated elements inside which one capsule is placed in order to be cut or perforated by a cutting element. The powder of the capsule is so released into a chamber with a grid lower surface that keeps the pieces of the case inside and lets only the powder pass through. Once the capsule is placed into its compartment in order to be cut, it will be sufficient to rotate an element on the other ones by means of a support. Then the user places the mouthpiece of the inhaler, separated by the container, into his/her mouth and breathes in, so that the powdered drug dispersed into the chamber can reach the lungs.

Abstract: Embodiments of methods, communication devices, communication systems, and computer program products may facilitate communication of information via a frame-check sequence that has an information block associated therewith. For example, one or more information blocks may be provided and respectively associated with one or more information block frame-check sequences. A message for transmission may be provided and a message frame-check sequence may be computed based on the message. One of the information blocks may also be selected for transmission along with the message. Rather than constructing a packet that includes both the selected information block and the message, however, the information block frame-check sequence that is associated with the selected information block is added to the message frame-check sequence to compute a transmit frame-check sequence. A packet comprising the message and the transmit frame-check sequence may then be transmitted. Once received, the packet may be divided by a generator polynomial to determine whether any remainder results. If the remainder is non-zero, then a determination may be made whether remainder corresponds to any of the one or more information block frame-check sequences. If the remainder does correspond to one of the information block frame-check sequences, then the information block associated with the information block frame-check sequence that corresponds to the remainder may be processed as received information.
