(57) Abstract : Amber light LEDs have a higher luminance than red light LEDs. A vast majority of images displayed on television consists of colors that can be created using amber, green and blue components, with only a small percentage of red. In one embodiment of the present invention, the typically red primary light source (22, 23) in a projection display system (10) is augmented with an amber light source (23). Green (21) and blue (20) primary light sources are also provided. All the light sources are high power LEDs. The particular mixture of the red and amber light is accomplished by varying the duty cycles of the red LEDs and the amber LEDs. If the RGB image to be displayed can be created using a higher percentage of amber light and a lower percentage of red light, the duty cycle of the amber LEDs is increased while the duty cycle of the red LEDs is decreased. Light/pixel modulators (14, 15, 16) for creating the full color image from the three primary light sources are controlled to compensate for the variable amber/red mixture. This technique improves the efficiency of the projection system and generates less heat. A further increase in luminance can be achieved by controlling the light mixture from green and cyan LEDs (46) as a primary light source and/or by controlling the light mixture from blue and blue-cyan LEDs (58) as a primary light source.

(57) Abstract : Clusters of pixels are defined for use in image compression and decompression. The image information used to define the clusters may include pixel values at predetermined positions relative to a pixel or related motion vectors, gradients, texture etc.. During compression of images the image information relative to pixels is examined to determine the cluster to which it belongs. Thus pixels can be classified according to the cluster for their image information. In an embodiment the definitions of the clusters are selected dynamically, dependent on image content. For each cluster a control parameter set is computed for a post-processing operation, such as filter coefficients for filtering or statistical data for locally generating texture. The control parameter set is selected dependent on the image content so that, when the post-processing operation is applied to the image after decompression it will improve image quality for the pixels that are classified as belonging to the cluster. The compressed image and the control parameter sets are transmitted to a decompression apparatus. Upon decompression, the image information that represents the decompressed image is examined to classify pixels according to the clusters and the different control parameter sets for the selected clusters are used to control post-processing at the locations of the pixels.

(57) Abstract : A visible pattern is obtained by modulating the digital sum value. Because the digital sum value modulation allows the choice of several different channel bits groups between DC control points, the selection of a group of channel bits resulting in a change of reflection. This creation of a visible pattern is highly suitable for Blueray as the parity preserving property of the channel code guarantees disparity inversion by the DC-control bit, which keeps the DSV excursions between hard limits. As a result only small DSV deliberate variations are required to produce a visual watermark, which will not deteriorate the bit- detection margin of the optical disc .

(57) Abstract : Methods and apparatus for simulating resistive loads, and facilitating series, parallel and/or series-parallel connections of multiple loads to draw operating power. Current-to- voltage characteristics of loads are altered in a predetermined manner so as to facilitate a predictable and/or desirable behavior of multiple loads drawing power from a power source Exemplary loads include LED-based light sources and LED-based lighting units. Altered current-to-voltage characteristics may cause a load to appear as a substantially linear or resistive element to the power source, at least over some operating range. In connections o multiple such loads, the voltage across each load is relatively more predictable. In one example, a series connection of multiple loads with altered current-to-voltage characteristic may be operated from a line voltage without requiring a transformer.

(57) Abstract : The invention relates to a microelectronic sensor device for the detection of target components that comprise label particles, for example magnetic particles (1). The sensor device comprises a carrier (11) with a binding surface (12) at which target components can collect and optionally bind to specific capture elements. An input light beam (L1) is transmitted into the carrier and totally internally reflected at the binding surface (12). The amount of light in the output light beam (L2) and optionally also of fluorescence light emitted by target components at the binding surface is then detected by a light detector (31). Evanescent light generated during the total internal reflection is affected (absorbed, scattered) by target components and/or label particles (1) at the binding surface (12) and will therefore be missing in the output light beam (L2). This can be used to determine the amount of target components at the binding surface (12) from the amount of light in the output light beam (L2, L2a, L2b). A magnetic field generator (41) is optionally used to generate a magnetic field (B) at the binding surface (12) by which magnetic label particles (1) can be manipulated, for example attracted or repelled.

An initial set of candidate ablation regions (112) that covers the PTV (40, 70, 102) is computed. Ablation probe trajectories that avoid critical structures (136) are computed to provide surgical 5 options for safe entry points and angles. An optimization component (14) determines a minimum number of ablation regions, which fully covers the PTV (40, 70, 102), and generates locations and orientations for each ablation (108). A tracking system can be given these ablation targets, enabling the surgeon to control the probe more precisely to the desired location.

(57) Abstract : A stereo audio decoder with low complexity is provided. A high stereo sound quality can be obtained with a limited computational power and is thus suitable for miniature and mobile equipment. The stereo decoder generates a set of stereo output channels (C1, C2) in response to a parametric audio input including signal parameters (S1) and stereo related parameters (X1). A parameter processor (M) generates two different set of parameters (P1, P2) based on the input signal parameters (S1) thus up-mixing the signal parameters (S1) by altering or manipulating the signal parameters (S1) corresponding to the stereo related parameters (X1). The two different parameters (P1, P2) are finally synthesized by separate signal synthesizers (SS1, SS2) to form respective stereo output channels (C1, C2).

(57) Abstract : A disk loading mechanism comprises a frame and a roller mounted on a carrier. The carrier is pivotable with respect to the frame to bias the roller onto the disk. It would be advantageous to provide a disk loading mechanism in which the forces exerted on a disk to be inserted in or ejected from a drive unit by a roller providing a movement of the disk are equal for the inserting and ejecting operations. To better address one or more of these concerns it is suggested to provide a disk loading mechanism comprising reduction gears which do not transmit any other than rotational forces onto the roller. Any other forces are accommodated for by the carrier and compensate each other such that they do not have any influence on the biasing of the carrier towards the disk.

(57) Abstract : Described are improved methods for producing Electrodes and Electrolytes for application in Vanadium Flow Cells and Batteries (VFBS). To produce the electrodes of this invention, a piece of carbon or graphite felt is heat and pressure bonded onto at least one side of a carbon-filled polyolefin composite substrate with composition 5-30% carbon black and 95-70% polyolefin selected from the group low density polyethylene, high density polyethylene and polypropylene. To produce the electrolyte for the Vanadium Flow Cell or Battery, equimolar quantities of vanadium trioxide and vanadium pentoxide powders are initially dissolved in a dissolution tank to produce a solution of V(Iv) ions in the supporting electrolyte, This solution is put though an electrolysis step wherein half of the V(IV) ions are reduced to V(IIJ) ions producing an approximately 50:50 mixture of V(III) and V(IV) ions. The V(III)/V(IV) solution produced in the electrolysis cell can be used in the VFB but a portion can be returned to the dissolution tank where a further amount of vanadium pentoxide powder and supporting electrolyte is added to produce an additional quantity of the V(IV) solution that is again reduced in the negative compartment of the electrolysis cell to produce a further amount of the approximately 1:1 molar mixture of V(III) and V(IV) for use in the VPB. In an alternative approach, a V(3.5+) solution is first produced by dissolution of a 3:1 molar ratio of vanadium trioxide and vanadium pentoxide powders in a dissolution tank- This solution may be directly used in the VFB or may be pumped through the negative compartment of an electrolysis cell to produce a V(III) solution that is then recycled to the dissolution tank where further stoichiometric quantities of vanadium pentoxide powder and supporting electrolyte are added to produce further quantities of V(3.5+) solution for the VPB. These steps may be repeated to produce VFB electrolyte in a semi-batch or continuous loop. The same electrolysis cell can also be employed to rebalance the electrolytes of the VFB when they have gone out of balance due to the air oxidation of V{II) ions in the negative half-cell electrolyte, or due to hydrogen evolution at the negative electrode during charging of the VFB.

(57) Abstract : A Single Carrier Block Transmission (SCBT) system employs an inherently parallel approach to error correction processing. At the transmission system (200), an incoming data stream is split (210) into P parallel data streams, each having a data rate equal to a fraction of the incoming data stream''s data rate. The parallel data streams are then each separately encoded (220) in P parallel encoding processes (beneficially, using P parallel encoders (222)). The P separately encoded data streams are then merged (330), interleaved (320), and mapped (310) into a single stream of encoded symbols, which are transmitted to the receiver using an arbitrary modulation (240) and transmission scheme. At the receiver (255), the received data stream is de-interleaved (350) and split into P encoded data streams, which are then decoded (285) using P parallel decoders. Then, the decoded data streams are combined or multiplexed (295) into a single data stream.

(57) Abstract : A high percentage of preventable medical errors occur due to poor communication during the period when patient care is handed from one caregiver to another. Electronic annotations from patient specific body sensor networks are created and classified according to the caregiver and the urgency of the annotation to ensure that no information goes unnoticed during the transfer of care. Sensors (10) of each body sensor network store the annotations, and share the annotations with all the other sensors (10) in the network. The sensors (10) communicate wirelessly with a monitor (12), nurses™ station (14) a portable device (16) or other device (19) associated with a medical facility network to display the annotations for the caregiver on an associated display (12a, 14a, 16a, 19a). The caregiver can view, create, edit, and delete annotations with input devices (12b, 14b, 16b, 19b) as appropriate. The system can be applied in a hospital or care facility in which patients are monitored with a body sensor network based monitoring system. This includes ICUs, ERs ORs, preparation rooms, cathlabs, and diagnostic imaging rooms, as well as others.

(57) Abstract : In this modern hi-tech world, there is a rapid development in every branch of science The sound signals have to be transmitted from different sources with minimum delay to speed up the entire operation. Microphone and loudspeaker are used for receiving and reproducing any sound signal respectively. But, in this invention, the use of loudspeaker for both receiving and reproducing the sound signal is made. When a person speaks, the 'Speaker as a Mike' acts as a microphone and receives the sound signal. The same sound signal is reproduced in another loudspeaker. On the other hand, if the speaker wants to use 'Speaker as a Mike' to receive the signal from the other end, the speaker can switch to the loudspeaker. The major application of this invention is that it can be used in large auditoriums during questioning hours. The 'Speaker as a Mike' near the questioner can be switched to microphone operation and talk. It reduces the time consumed while transferring the cordless microphone from one questioner to another. In hospitals, the 'Speaker as aMike' can be placed in doctor's room and patient's bed side so that the patient can use the switch and talk to the doctor. Here, in this invention, the use of a microphone and a loudspeaker has been replaced by a single loudspeaker. This reduces cost, power and maintenance and increases compactness.

(57) Abstract : To quickly and robustly detect the presence of an incumbent user and rapidly relinquish the spectrum to the incumbent user when necessary, carrier recovery is performed in a receiver of the secondary user™s cognitive or software radio prior to performing correlation detection with an upsampled reference signal to correct for large frequency offsets and improve the performance of the correlation detector. To detect a received signal, a pilot value is added to a reference signal. The reference signal is upsampled to a sampling frequency of the received signal. The upsampled reference signal is correlated with a demodulated baseband signal to produce a correlation value. It is then determined whether the received signal is present if the correlation value is greater than a predetermined detection threshold value.

(57) Abstract : An alternator including a control circuit for controlling an amount of field current supplied to a field winding is mounted on an automotive vehicle. The control circuit controls the field current based on a PWM signal fed from an outside electronic control unit. An output current of the alternator is supplied to a battery to charge it. Various electric loads are connected in parallel to the battery. When a not so large electric load is imposed, the field current is gradually increased to maintain the battery voltage at a proper level. When a large electric load is imposed and the output voltage becomes lower than a predetermined lowest level, a priority control circuit for rapidly recovering the output voltage is brought into operation. On the other hand, a circuit for prohibiting operation of the priority control circuit for a predetermined period is also provided to prevent rapid imposition of the generating torque on the engine. Thus, a high fluctuation of engine speed or an engine stall is prevented while maintaining the output voltage at a proper level. 17

(57) Abstract : A task often encountered in very recent times is the rapid provision of prototypes. Particularly suitable processes are those based on pulverulent materials and in which the desired structures are produced layer-by-layer through selective melting and solidification. The invention provides the constitution, production and use of a copolyamide powder which was produced using the following monomer units: > iaurolactam or w-aminoundecanoic acid, and also > dodecanedioic acid, and either > decanediamine or dodecanediamine, in shaping processes, and also to mouldings produced through a layer-by-layer process which selectively melts regions of a powder layer, using this specific powder. Once the regions previously melted layer-by-layer have been cooled and solidified, the moulding can be removed from the powder bed. Examples of the advantages which can be achieved in mouldless layer-by-layer processes for the production of components using the copolyamide powder of the invention are simplified and more reliable conduct of the process and better recyclability.

(57) Abstract : Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate identifying peers based upon encoded signals during peer discovery in a peer to peer network. For example, direct signaling that partitions a time-frequency resource into a number of segments can be utilized to communicate an identifier within a peer discovery interval; thus, a particular segment selected for transmission can signal a portion of the identifier, while a remainder can be signaled based upon tones communicated within the selected segment. Moreover, a subset of symbols within the resource can be reserved (e.g., unused) to enable identifying and/or correcting timing offset. Further, signaling can be effectuated over a plurality of peer discovery intervals such that partial identifiers communicated during each of the peer discovery intervals can be linked (e.g., based upon overlapping bits and/or bloom filter information).

(57) Abstract : The present invention provides a crankcase ventilation system and resonator for a turbocharged internal combustion engine assembly. The resonator, designed for intake noise reduction, is mounted to the engine. An oil separation unit, designed for passage of blowby gases, is mounted to a cam cover, sandwiched between the resonator and cam cover. The resonator has a resonator body defining a resonator volume therein. The resonator fluidly communicates the oil separation unit with the turbocharger air inlet pipe, whereby blowby gases are evacuated from the cam cover and delivered through the resonator volume for reintroduction to the engines air intake system. Integration of the blowby passages into the resonator reduces the number of potential leak paths in the air induction system, and reduces overall engine mass, cost, and packaging size. The present design also offers improved On-board Diagnostics (OBD) by allowing only large flow areas to be disconnected.

(57) Abstract : Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), is the most dangerous of the three manifestations of leishmania disease, caused by Leishmania donovani, is endemic in 62 countries, with 1.5 million cases worldwide and 0.2 million people die every year from this disease. It is also an opportunistic infection of advanced AIDS disease in European countries. Therapy of leishmaniasis by using drugs like Pentavalent Antimony Compounds (PAC) such as Sodium stibogluconet (Pentosam) & Meglumine antimonite (Glucantine) possesses a number of problems. Pentamidine & AmphotericineB have been used in case of resistence but their uses lead to abnormal liver function & renal dysfunction. Finally clinical resistance to this class has also been reported. Even the effect of Miltefosine is a break through, but resistance to this drug at least in vitro can easily be achived. Hence there is an urgent need to develop a cost effective & safer drug for the people of poor country like India. Scientific evaluation of medicinal plants have made it possible the use of some metabolite like quinines, alkaloids, terpines for the treatment of diseases caused by protozoan parasites. So as part of a search for new drugs of natural origin against leishmaniasis, we have invented a antileishmanial drug PITC-2 (a thiophen derivative) isolated from tissue cultured Pluchea indica (L.) Less root extract. Now, in our laboratory, we have invented the new and unique anti-leishmanial drug delivery preparations with the anti-leishmanial drug PITC-2 using liposomal and mannose grafted liposomal delivery systems, which are potent, safe and less toxic.
