Abstract: By means of a method and device, a receiver signal (7') is produced that is precise as far as frequency is concerned during a determined listening time in a magnetron radar system utilizing a local oscillator arrangement (5). In the arrangement, an oscillator (VCO) is arranged to be able to be controlled by a control loop. Using a first means (17), the magnetron's outgoing frequency is received and mixed with the oscillator's outgoing frequency and creates a difference frequency in analogue form. The difference frequency is filtered, digitized and sampled in order to generate an estimated difference frequency (22a') in digital form. A third means 23 receives and compares the estimated frequency in digital form with a required difference frequency, the result of the comparison being utilized for correction of a frequency initiated by an approximate-setting function. A ROM is arranged with a translation table with divisors (N), which are set in relation to various possible output frequencies of the oscillator. A relevant divisor can be derived from the oscillator's current output frequency. The control loop receives the divisor and fine-tunes the oscillator. In this way, a non-critical and efficient control of the oscillator can be carried out so that this can provide the precise receiver signal.It is proposed that Figure 1 should accompany the abstract.

Abstract: The invention enables efficient management of messages in a communication system. A messaging center ( 100 ) generates, in response to reception of a request message from a first user ( 200 ) and intended to a second user ( 300 ), transaction information. This information is stored in a database ( 180 ) together with an identifier of the first user ( 200 ). A temporary address is generated based on the transaction information and an identifier of the center ( 100 ). A second request message including the temporary address is transmitted to the second user ( 300 ). Due to careful choice of the temporary address, the second user ( 300 ) may easily transmit a response message to the center ( 100 ). Upon reception, the center ( 100 ) extracts the temporary address from the response message and extracts the transaction information from the address. Then, the identifier is retrieved from the database ( 180 ) based on the transaction information and a second response message is transmitted to the first user ( 200 ) based on the retrieved identifier.

Abstract: A unit having a collecting device with a seat arranged to receive a disposable capsule containing a soluble product, such as a beverage-forming powder. The capsule contains at least one inlet port for a diluting fluid introduced into the capsule, at least one outlet port for delivery of a beverage provided by thorough mixing of the soluble product and the diluting fluid, and a bottom wall. The unit also includes a throttling arrangement provided by an engaging surface of a plunger that is operatively associated with the outlet port of the capsule. The engaging surface of the plunger is positioned and arranged outside of the capsule before the diluting fluid enters into the capsule, with the throttling arrangement created as diluting fluid is urged to enter the capsule by expansion of the capsule bottom wall and by forcing the engaging surface of the plunger to snugly fit through the outlet port. This limits the introduction of the plunger inside the capsule to the limited displacement of the bottom wall as a result of its deformation under pressure.

Abstract: A method of predicting an arrhythmia, such as ventricular tachycardia, for example, in a medical device using a quantitative measure in order to allow assessment of patient risk and to enable preventative interventions by the device and clinicians. The trending of day and night average heart rates, along with patient physical activity can be analyzed to provide prediction of impending arrhythmia within weeks. By examining day and night average heart rate for crossover points, where the night heart rate equals or exceeds the day rate, and monitoring for a concomitant elevation in the night heart rate from a reference value, specific days heralding an increased risk of arrhythmia can be determined and therapy can be updated accordingly.
