Inventor: LEWIS ERIC ANTHONY
IPC: H02M7/797
Filed: 2011-03-28
Abstract: A dc energy store (2) that includes auxiliary systems (68) can be operated in one or more different modes, including a self-supporting mode, an island mode and a normal mode. In the self-supporting mode a first controller (24) uses a voltage demand signal (VACr) indicative of desired ac voltage at the ac terminals of an AC/DC power converter (4) to control semiconductor power switching devices of the AC/DC power converter (4) to achieve the desired level of ac voltage that corresponds to the voltage demand signal (VACr). The voltage demand signal (VACr) is derived from a comparison of a voltage feedback signal (VACfb) and a second voltage demand signal (VACsr) that is preset to provide the desired ac voltage for the auxiliary systems (68) of the dc energy store. A second controller (46) uses a current demand signal (Ior) indicative of the desired dc link current to control the semiconductor power switching devices of a DC/DC power converter (14) to achieve the desired level of dc link current that corresponds to the current demand signal (Ior). The current demand signal (Ior) is derived from a comparison of a dc link voltage demand signal (VDCr) indicative of a desired dc link voltage and a dc link voltage feedback signal (VDCbus).

Abstract: Loss of Wnt-5a protein expression in breast carcinoma patients is associated with a shorter recurrence-free survival as well as increased motility in mammary cell lines. Based on sequence analysis of Wnt-5a 13 peptide fragments were identified and investigated for their ability to mimic the effects of the Wnt-5 a protein on mammary cell adhesion and motility. Two of these peptides significantly increased adhesion and impaired the motility of non-tumourigenic brest cancer cell lines, both low in engogenous Wnt-5a expression. To identify the shortest possible peptide that still had an anti-motile effect, sequential deletions of two amino acids from the N-terminal side of the shorter of these two peptides were performed. The effect on tumour cell adhesion was gradually lost, and when only 6 amino acids remained the effect was not detectabel. However, formylation of the N-terminal methionine of this hexapeptide restored its effect on adhesion and reduced tumour cell motility. The novel formyl-Met-Asp-Gly-Cys-Glu-Leu peptide ligand can serve as a lead substance for anti-metastatic treatment in the <<50 % of human breast cancers where the endogenous expression of Wnt-5a is reduced.

Abstract: A method for measuring speed involves calculating and measuring speed of an object based on a distance and a time obtained by a method for measuring distance and a method for measuring time, respectively. The time between distance measuring sessions is obtained using the cycle number of a reference signal based on a clock mask synchronous with the distance measuring sessions. The time is corrected according to a plurality of phase shift signals generated based on the reference signal. An error of the time is minimized by increasing the quantity of the phase shift signals. The method enhances the accuracy of the measured time between distance measuring sessions, speeds up speed measurement, and reduces the required circuit areas. A system for measuring speed is further introduced for use with the method.

Abstract: The present invention generally provides multifocal ophthalmic lenses, e.g., multifocal intraocular lenses (10), that employ a central refractive region (18) for providing a single far focus refractive focusing power and an annular diffractive region (20) for providing two diffractive focusing powers. In many cases, the refractive focusing power provided by the lens's central region corresponds to a far-focusing power that is substantially equal to one of the diffractive focusing powers while the other diffractive power corresponds to a near focusing power. As such, in many cases, the focusing properties of the lenses are dominated by the far-focus ability, especially for small pupil sizes.

Abstract: A method of transmitting data packets between network nodes in a wireless telecommunications network utilising an acknowledge request protocol, a computer program product and a network node are disclosed. The method of transmitting data packets between network nodes in a wireless telecommunications network utilising an acknowledge request protocol in which consecutive transmission time intervals are provided for transmission of data packets, a plurality of the consecutive transmission time intervals forming a round trip time period, retransmission of a data packet occurring if an indication that a data packet was corrupted is received within the round trip time period, the acknowledge request protocol employing up to a predetermined number of acknowledgement request processes supporting transmission of data packets, each acknowledgement request process having an associated transmission time interval within which to transmit a data packet, comprises the steps of: determining a transmission requirement associated with the data packets; and allocating fewer than the predetermined number of the acknowledgement request processes in response to the transmission requirement to selectively prevent transmission time intervals within the round trip time period associated with non-allocated acknowledgement request processes from being allocated to support transmission of the data packets over the data channel. In this way, the effective maximum data rate of the channel supporting the data transmission is reduced or throttled back, based on the number of transmission time intervals utilized. By allocating fewer processes it is possible to reduce the effective bit rate on the channel and reduce the channel load which enables an increase in the number of network nodes which may transmit simultaneously over that channel.
