The wheel electronics may include a receiving device for picking up and digitizing an amplitude-modulated request signal, which has a carrier frequency for encoding a request, having a first evaluation device, which checks the request signal for the presence of a request contained therein, and having a digital counter for generating an envelope of the request signal, which has a counter input for coupling the request signal, which is clocked at a clock signal frequency different from the carrier frequency and is determined from the clock signal frequency and the request signal of its envelope. Furthermore, the invention relates to a tire control system for measuring a measurand with this type of wheel electronics. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20080288696 | DEVICE WITH A PROCESSOR AND A PERIPHERAL UNIT AND METHOD FOR GENERATING AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT SIGNAL - A device is provided that includes a processor, a peripheral unit, and a first logic, and to a method for generating an acknowledgment signal. The processor is clocked by a processor clock signal, which runs asynchronously to the peripheral clock signal, by which the peripheral unit is clocked. The peripheral unit sends an interrupt request synchronously to the peripheral clock signal to the processor, which thereupon is woken up from its idle state, to process the interrupt request in its working state. After the processing or during the processing of the interrupt request, the processor generates an acknowledgment signal synchronous to the processor clock signal. The first logic generates an acknowledgment signal, which is synchronous to the peripheral clock signal and by which the peripheral unit is informed about the processed interrupt request, from the acknowledgment signal synchronous to the processor clock signal. | 11-20-2008 |

| 20080317327 | Method of Design Analysis of Existing Integrated Circuits - The present invention involves a computationally efficient method of determining the locations of standard cells in an image of an IC layout. The initial step extracts and characterizes points of interest of the image. A coarse localization of possible standard cell locations is performed and is based on a comparison of the points of interest of an instance of an extracted standard cell and the remaining points of interest in the image. A more rigid comparison is made on the list of possible locations comprising a coarse match and a fine match. The coarse match results in a shortlist of possible locations. The fine match performs comparisons between the template and the shortlist. Further filtering is done to remove the effects of noise and texture variations and statistics on the results are generated to achieve the locations of the standard cells on the IC layout. | 12-25-2008 |

| 20090175919 | CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF HYDROGELS FOR USE AS ARTICULATING SURFACES - The present invention provides a hydrogel composition comprising at least one polymer with functional groups including alcohol groups, acid groups, and amide groups and where the ratio of the functional alcohol groups to functional acid groups in the hydrogel composition ranges from about 16:1 to about 3:2. The present invention also provides a method of repairing an articulating surface in a body using the inventive composition. The inventive hydrogel composition is created by blending two or more polymers to achieve the desired ratio of functional groups, reacting at least one polymer with a reagent that results in the formation of alcohol, acid, and/or amide functional groups of the desired ratio, and/or polymerizing at least one monomer to achieve the desired ratio of functional groups. | 07-09-2009 |

| 20090131548 | PVA HYDROGEL - The present invention provides methods of making covalently crosslinked vinyl polymer hydrogels having advantageous physical properties, and covalently crosslinked vinyl polymer hydrogel compositions made by such methods, as well as articles of manufacture comprising such covalently crosslinked vinyl polymer hydrogel compositions. The physical properties of the produced hydrogels can be adjusted by varying controlled parameters such as the proportion of physical associations, the concentration of polymer and the amount of radiation applied. Such covalently crosslinked vinyl polymer hydrogels can be made translucent, preferably transparent, or opaque depending on the processing conditions. The stability of the physical properties of the produced vinyl polymer hydrogel can be enhanced by controlling the amount of covalent crosslinks. | 05-21-2009 |

| 20110028862 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE EXTRACTION OF A BODY FLUID - The present invention provides a method and a device for piercing a body part and determining whether a sufficient volume of blood has been withdrawn. A lancing element is rapidly inserted into a body part in a forward phase and retracted quickly to a lesser puncturing depth. Subsequently, the lancing element is retracted slower than during the first retraction movement and the distance retracted during the second retraction is shorter than the first retraction movement. During the second retraction movement, body fluid is collected in a collection phase by a capillary structure of the lancing element. Contact between the lancing element and the body fluid is detected after the forward phase at the beginning and the end of a waiting period. | 02-03-2011 |

| 20110286718 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECORDING COLLABORATIVE INFORMATION - A system and method for recording a collaborative session includes two phases. One is performed in real-time and includes determining portions of a composite image of collaborative session content that are constant over time or preprocessed. The portions are removed from the composite image of the collaborative session content. Remaining content of the composite image and any of the portions not already compressed is compressed and stored. A second phase is performed when off-line and includes decoding the remaining content of the composite image and the portions to reconstruct the composite image of the collaborative session content and formatting the composite image. | 11-24-2011 |
