20090058728INTERFERENCE CANCELLATION AND RECEIVE DIVERSITY FOR SINGLE-VALUED MODULATION RECEIVERS - A combined SAIC receiver and a multiple-antenna, receive diversity receiver are employed to reduce interference in a wireless system. The real and imaginary parts of the de-rotated signal for each receive path associated with an antenna are separately filtered and a combined output signal of all receive paths is generated. The weighting coefficients are adjusted based on an error signal produced by comparing the combined output signal with a reference signal. The weighting coefficients are initially set based on an MMSE/LS type of signal processing criteria, where the reference signal is the Training Sequence Code (TSC). Subsequent adjustment/tracking can be accomplished by using known tracking algorithms, e.g. LMS or RLS, or the coefficients can be re-computed using MMSE/LS processing. The reference signal for tracking may be a combination of the TSC and estimated data symbols provided by an equalizer.03-05-2009

20110057732LOW PHASE NOISE VOLTAGE CONTROLLED OSCILLATOR - Embodiments of the present invention include a low phase noise oscillator circuit using a current-reuse technique to reduce power consumption and improve phase noise, where the oscillator circuit comprises a first VCO coupled to a second VCO, and the outputs of the first and second VCOs are coupled with passive elements, such as capacitors. The overall power consumption of both the first and second VCOs is about the same as a single VCO. Furthermore, the phase noise is lowered by around 3 dB. Thus, the phase noise performance is improved without increasing the power consumption of the oscillator circuit03-10-2011
20110304373LOW VOLTAGE HIGH-SPEED WAVE SHAPING CIRCUITRY - Within hard disk drives (HDDs), for example, a preamplifier or preamp is generally used to perform read and write operations with a magnetic head. Typically, for write operations, the preamplifier generates a current waveform that uses a DC current to polarize magnetic elements within the disk and overshoot components to compensate for frequency dependent attenuation in the interconnect between the head and preamp. Conventional pulse-shaping circuitry used for this application uses high voltage to accomplish this task. Here, however, pulse-shaping circuitry is provided which can generate a similar waveform using lower voltage (i.e., about 5V) for this application and others.12-15-2011

20090122933Information Handling System Including Adaptive Interference Suppression Feature And Method Of Operation - An information handling system includes a wireless device and interference suppression apparatus that adapts to the different interference problems experienced by the wireless device when the system changes from one operating mode or state to another. The interference suppression apparatus includes a controller that instructs an adaptive filter with respect to the appropriate filter characteristics to employ to suppress interference when the system is operating in a first mode. When the system changes to a second mode of operation, the interference suppression apparatus updates the filter characteristics to filter characteristics which are appropriate for suppressing interference associated with the second mode of operation.05-14-2009

20080287395Phospholipid Compositions for Contact Lens Care and Preservation of Pharmaceutical Compositions - The use of certain synthetic phospholipids to preserve pharmaceutical compositions from microbial contamination is described. The synthetic phospholipids have unique molecular arrangements wherein a phosphate group is linked to a quaternary ammonium functionality via a substituted-propenyl group, and the quaternary ammonium functionality is further linked to at least one long hydrocarbon chain. Such molecular arrangements are what make the phospholipids of formula (I) highly water soluble, e.g., the length of the hydrocarbon chain assists to maintain solubility and efficacy of the molecules for the uses described herein. The synthetic phospholipids described herein have been found to be particularly useful as antimicrobial preservatives for ophthalmic, otic and nasal pharmaceutical compositions, especially ophthalmic compositions. These compounds may also be utilized to disinfect contact lenses. The invention is based in-part upon a finding that the antimicrobial activity of the synthetic phospholipids is affected by the ionic strength of the compositions in which the compounds are contained. The provision of compounds having limited ionic strengths is therefore preferred.11-20-2008
20090298956SELF-PRESERVED EMULSIONS - The use of multifunctional synthetic compounds to both stabilize and preserve therapeutic emulsions is described. The multifunctional synthetic compounds have unique molecular arrangement wherein a phosphate group is linked to one, two or three quaternary ammonium functionalities via a substituted propenyl group, and each quaternary ammonium functionality is further linked to at least one hydrocarbon chain. The pharmaceutical emulsions which include these multifunctional compounds may be prepared without heating or homogenization, and may not require the use of any additional stabilizing or preserving agents.12-03-2009
