The network node in the home network resumes execution of service invocation and routing of the originating call to the called party. When direct home routing, the home network performs execution of service invocation and routes the originating call to the called party. | 09-11-2014 |

20080214913 | Surface-Enhanced Spectroscopy with Implanted Biosensors - The present invention provides a spectroscopic apparatus, a method and a computer program product for determining the concentration of an analyte of a fluid that flows through a capillary vessel of a biological sample. The spectroscopic apparatus makes use of an imaging system for determining the position of at least one biosensing substrate that has been implanted into the biological sample in the proximity of the capillary vessel but outside the capillary vessel. The biosensing substrate is capable of inducing surface-enhanced spectroscopic effects and is preferably adapted to reversibly and selectively bind a certain analyte or molecule of the fluid, to which the vessel wall of the capillary vessel is at least semi-permeable. By performing a spectroscopic analysis not directly inside the capillary vessel but in close proximity to the capillary vessel, the signal-to-noise ratio of the spectroscopic signals obtained can be appreciably enhanced while disadvantageous scattering and interference effects can be minimized. | 09-04-2008 |

20090268203 | SPECTROSCOPIC METHOD OF DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF AN ANALYTE IN A MIXTURE OF ANALYTES - The invention relates to a multivariate calibration which can be used when the optical system used for that method does not comprise a multi-channel detector such as a CCD sensor or a line array of photodiodes. An optical system without a multi-channel detector doesn't allow to carry out preprocessing steps. Thus there is the need to carry out these preprocessing steps in another way. It is suggested to partially replace the preprocessing step by a measurement of the optical signal, whereby the measurement comprises transmitting or reflecting the optical signal by an optical element, thereby weighing the optical signal by a spectral weighing function. The advantage of the invention is to teach how such an optical system without a bulky and expensive CCD sensor can be used to carry out a multivariate calibration and preprocessing steps. | 10-29-2009 |
