| 20110226926 | Holder for holding clampingly a flat object - The invention relates to a holder for holding clampingly a flat object such as a photo, greetings card or drawing, wherein the holder is adapted to be fixed clampingly to a structure, wherein the holder has a decorative appearance. The decoration serves here to obtain a more attractive appearance. Although practical, a hospital bed or hospital room is also cheerless. When a patient is sent a get-well card or photo, it is now usually arranged on a noticeboard behind the patient. The card is hereby situated outside the field of vision of the patient. According to a preferred embodiment, the holder is adapted to be fixed clampingly to a structure at the foot of a bed, in particular a hospital bed. | 09-22-2011 |

| 20100302096 | METHOD OF DETERMINING THE POSITION OF A MOBILE DEVICE - A set of device parameters consisting of clock bias and position of a mobile device is determined without previous knowledge of the week number (WN) in that solutions of a set of equations derived from a least squares type weight function involving pseudoranges related to the device parameters via basic equations are attempted with a time of week (TOW) extracted from satellite signals and various week number candidates. A solution algorithm which iteratively solves the set of equations is used, each iteration step involving a linearization of the latter and resulting in corrections of the device parameters. After elimination of week numbers where the solution algorithm does not yield a solution a valid week number is selected from the remaining week numbers in that a deviation value is determined which reflects differential terms, i.e., differences between pseudorange values as measured and as derived from the set of device parameters according to the solution, e.g., by evaluation of the weight function. The week number yielding the smallest deviation value is selected. If the week number is confirmed by various checks the device parameters according to the corresponding solution are used, e.g., displayed, by the mobile device. | 12-02-2010 |

| 20110193745 | METHOD OF PROCESSING A DIGITAL SIGNAL DERIVED FROM AN ANALOG INPUT SIGNAL OF A GNSS RECEIVER, A GNSS RECEIVER BASE BAND CIRCUIT FOR CARRYING OUT THE METHOD AND A GNSS RECEIVER - An acquisition unit of a GNSS receiver base band circuit includes an integrator with a number of preprocessors where an incoming digital signal is mixed with different frequency signals to compensate at least in part for clock drift and Doppler shifts. The resulting digital signals are, after an accumulation step reducing sample frequency, integrated over an integration period extending over several basic intervals of the length of a basic sequence characteristic for a GNSS satellite, so that samples separated by a multiple of the basic interval are superposed. The resulting data sequence of 1,023 digital values is stored in one of two memories and then, in mixers, sequentially shifted by post-integration frequencies which are multiples of the inverse of the length of the basic interval. The pre-integration frequencies employed in the preprocessors deviate, with one possible exception, from the post-integration frequencies and are usually smaller. | 08-11-2011 |
