20100032558Mass Spectrometry Assay for Plasma-Renin - Provided are methods for measuring renin activity in a plasma sample using mass spectrometry. The methods generally involve ionizing purified angiotensin 1 from the sample and detecting the amount of angiotensin 1 ions generated. The amount of detected angiotensin 1 ions are then related to the amount of angiotensin 1 generated in the sample, which in turn is related to renin activity in the sample.02-11-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080266164RADAR REFLECTOR - A radar reflector which can be deployed from an aircraft and is intended to fly freely after deployment, and which includes multiple reflector surfaces that are essentially plane in an operative state and which issue in pairs in opposite directions from an essentially plane base plane. The radar reflector before deployment can be stored compactly, packed up into the minimum possible volume. This facility for packing the radar reflector up has been achieved in that its reflecting main surfaces have each been divided up by means of specially aligned buckled folds into a plurality of parts which can be folded in towards one another when the reflector is to be folded up.10-30-2008

20100036964MULTI-MEDIA MANAGEMENT - A multimedia provider multicasts a main multimedia stream comprising a mixture of intra and inter frames and multicasts an associated auxiliary stream comprising intra frames. At least a portion of the intra frames in the auxiliary stream are generated based on same multimedia data as at least a portion of the inter frames of the main stream. The provider also transmits a stream information channel comprising information descriptive of time instances of intra frames in the main and auxiliary streams. This information allows a set top box to selectively connect, in connection with session set-up and channel switch, to the main or auxiliary stream to receive an intra frame with as a low delay as possible.02-11-2010
20100091772PROVIDING IPTV MULTICASTS - A method of operating a Reliable Transmission Protocol switch node to provide an IPTV multicast. IP packets transporting an encrypted media stream are received from an IPTV Head-end. The media stream contains complete image frames. Unencrypted identifiers identifying packets containing complete image frame data are also received. The received packets are stored in a buffer, and on receipt of a request from a media renderer to provide the IPTV multicast, the packet(s) containing the last complete image frame in the media stream and all subsequent packets are sent to the media renderer.04-15-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120069910SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENCODING AND DECODING - Systems and methods for multimedia encoding and decoding are disclosed. The systems and methods include multimedia format detection systems, decoder functionality generation systems, decoder instantiation systems, and multimedia processing engines which are capable of selecting a decoder or playback mechanism for each input encoded multimedia stream. The functionality of the decoder or playback mechanism is represented as syntax elements which may be further encoded. The functionality for decoding or playback is then stored or transmitted with the multimedia bitstream. Alternatively, the functionality and multimedia bitstream can be embedded in or associated with a second digital bitstream. Further, the functionality associated with an encoded multimedia stream can be used to instantiate a decoder or playback mechanism and the encoded multimedia stream decoded with the instantiated decoder or mechanism.03-22-2012
20120069911SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENCODING, TRANSMITTING AND DECODING - Systems and methods for encoding, transmitting, and decoding are disclosed. The systems and methods include multimedia encoding, transmitting, and decoding instantiation systems which are capable of being modified on the basis of associated IPR costs. Further, the systems and methods include the capabilities of recording or transmitting the IPR and/or IPR costs associated with the instantiated encoders, transmitters, or decoders.03-22-2012
20120072225SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENCODING AND DECODING - Systems and methods for encoding and decoding are disclosed. The systems and methods include multimedia decoder instantiation systems and multimedia processing engines which are capable of being upgraded or reconfigured to support a new or previously-unsupported compression format, without the need for platform-specific software or hardware upgrades.03-22-2012
