| 20100195711 | Hybrid receiver with algorithmic combining and method - A hybrid receiver apparatus, a method, and a computer readable storage media encoded with a program are provided. The hybrid receiver apparatus a first receiver processor and a second receiver processor and a signal input by the hybrid receiver apparatus is processed by both the first receiver processor and the second receiver processor. The hybrid receiver apparatus includes a combiner unit combining data output from the first receiver processor with data output from the second receiver processor based on a weight values assigned to the data. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20090285353 | Array CT - Embodiments of an Array CT scanning system for x-ray scanning objects (e.g., scanning airline baggage, packages, and cargo) can include a conveyor configured to transport baggage through a tunnel, a bottom mounted x-ray source configured to provide five fan beams through the tunnel, a side mounted x-ray source disposed at a height higher than the conveyor and configured to provide a fan beam through the tunnel, and a plurality of detectors disposed across the arcs of each of the fan beams. An image processing system can be configured to provide 3D type images of a scanned bag as a function of the information received from the detectors. The images can be derived through interpolation of the scan data. An operator can manipulate the image data and partially rotate the bag to discern objects located within. A side tray is provided to allow an operator to remove a suspect bag from an operational flow of bags. Image information can be stored for subsequent review. Multiple scanners can be networked together such that image and passenger information can be transferred to other workstations. | 11-19-2009 |

| 20090221998 | ANCHORED RF ABLATION DEVICE FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF TISSUE MASSES - An anchoring member which comprises a support structure and at least one anchor secured to the anchoring member is disclosed. An anchor deflection member is disposed generally externally to and at least partially surrounding and extending along the perimeter of the anchoring member. The anchor deflection member supports the anchoring member for sliding longitudinal movement in directions which result in advancement and retraction of a point on the anchor. The anchor deflection member defines a guide surface positioned on the inside of the anchor deflection member. The guide surface extends longitudinally, and it is configured and dimensioned to slidingly guide the cylindrical anchoring member. A deflection lip is positioned relatively inwardly with respect to the guide surface. The deflection lip is positioned to outwardly deflect the point of the anchor as the anchor is advanced from a position removed from the deflection lip toward the deflection lip into contact with the deflection lip and beyond the deflection lip. | 09-03-2009 |

| 20090187182 | RF ABLATION DEVICE WITH JAM-PREVENTING ELECTRICAL COUPLING MEMBER - The inventive ablation element comprises an elongated cannula having a proximal end and a distal end. The cannula defines an internal lumen within the cannula and a cannula axis. A plurality of conductors contained within the lumen, each of the conductors has a proximal end proximate the proximal end of the cannula, and a distal end proximate the distal end of the cannula. A plurality of ablation stylets each has a proximal end and a distal end, and each coupled at the respective proximal end of the stylet to the distal end of a respective conductor, the stylets comprise a deflectable material, the conductors together with their respective stylets being mounted for axial movement. A trocar point defined proximate the distal end of the cannula. A deflection surface positioned between the trocar point and the proximal end of the cannula, the deflection surface being configured and positioned to deflect, in response to axial movement of the stylets in a direction from the proximate end of the cannula to the distal end of the cannula, at least some of the stylets laterally with respect to the cannula axis in different directions along substantially straight paths, the paths defining an ablation volume. | 07-23-2009 |

| 20080287298 | PROCESS FOR THE CONTROL OF WEEDS - Undesired plant growth in cultivations of useful plants which are resistant to phopho-herbicides, may be controlled with herbicidal compositions, which contain, in addition to the usual inert formulation assistants, a phospho-herbicide and a synergistic amount of at least one further herbicide selected from the group comprising prosulfuron, primisulfuron, dicamba, pyridate, dimethenamide and its S-enantiomer, metolachlor and its S-enantiomer, fluometuron, propaquizafop, atrazine, clodinafop, norflurazone, ametryn, terbutylazine, simazine, prometryn, NOA-402989, as well as the compounds of formulae. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20090093363 | USE OF MACROLIDES IN PEST CONTROL - There is now described a method of controlling pests with macrolide compounds; more specifically a method of protecting plant propagation material and plant organs formed at a later point in time from attack by pests, characterized in that a pesticide comprising, as pesticidally active compound, at least one macrolide compound as active ingredient and at least one auxiliary in close spatial proximity to, or spatially together with, planting or applying the propagation material is employed to the site of planting or sowing. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20090163483 | Use of Neonicotinoids in Pest Control - There is now described a method of controlling pests with nitroimino- or nitroguanidino-compounds; more specifically | 06-25-2009 |
