| 20090055334 | IDENTIFYING AND RECOMMENDING POTENTIAL USES OF COMPUTING SYSTEMS BASED ON THEIR PATTERNS OF USE - Techniques for identifying potential uses of computing systems are disclosed. A potential use of a computing system can be identified by considering the context that effectively represents a situation for the computing system and further considering a known situation to be a match for the situation. A known situation can be associated with a known corresponding state of use of the computing system. As such, a potential state of use of the computing system can be identified based on one or more known states of use of the computing system. A matching situation can, for example, be determined, based on pattern of use data that effectively associates a state of use with a situation in which the use may or has occurred. Identifying a potential state of use, among other things, allows making various applications, tasks, and/or services more accessible and/or effectively recommending what is likely to be used for a given situation. As a result, computing systems and the manner in which they can be used can be enhanced. In particular, a much better user experience can be achieved for mobile systems. | 02-26-2009 |

| 20100255426 | MIRROR ARRAYS FOR MASKLESS PHOTOLITHOGRAPHY AND IMAGE DISPLAY - Micromirrors and micromirror arrays described herein are useful, for example in maskless photolithography systems and methods and projection display devices and methods. According to one aspect, the micromirrors comprise a polymer structural layer and a reflective dielectric multilayer for selective reflection and/or redirection of incoming electromagnetic radiation. According to another aspect, incorporation of a reflective dielectric multilayer allows for use of polymer structural materials in micromirrors and prevents damage to such polymer materials due to excessive heating from absorption of electromagnetic radiation, as the reflective dielectric multilayers are highly reflective and minimize heating of the micromirror components. According to yet a further aspect, top down fabrication methods are described herein for making a micromirror comprising a polymer structural layer and a reflective dielectric multilayer. | 10-07-2010 |

| 20100322297 | CARRIER PHASE OFFSET CORRECTION FOR A QAM SYSTEM - Systems and methods are described that may be used to detect and correct carrier phase offset in a signal. A phase offset corrector receives an equalized signal representative of a quadrature amplitude modulated signal and derives a phase-corrected signal from the equalized signal. The equalized signal is sliced to obtain real and imaginary sequences and a frame synchronizer performs a correlation of the real and imaginary sequences with corresponding parts of a stored frame-sync pseudo-random sequence. Phase correction is based on the maximum real and imaginary values of the correlation. The signal is typically quadrature amplitude modulated signal is modulated using punctured trellis codes. Quadrature phase shift keying modulation, 16-QAM, 64-QAM and other QAM schemes may be used. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100322347 | NOVEL FRAME STRUCTURE FOR A QAM SYSTEM - A novel framing method for a variable net bit rate digital communications system that utilizes a set of different QAM constellations and punctured trellis code combinations, each combination designated as a mode. This frame structure has a variable integral number of QAM symbols per frame depending on the selected mode, but the number of bytes and Reed-Solomon packets per frame is constant. This is achieved even though the number of data bits per QAM symbol for some modes is fractional. Also the number of trellis coder puncture pattern cycles per frame is an integer for all modes. This arrangement simplifies the synchronization of receiver processing blocks such as the Viterbi decoder, de-randomizer, byte de-interleaver, and Reed-Solomon decoder. | 12-23-2010 |

| 20090308202 | METHODS OF MAKING NANOPRISMS - The invention is a novel photo-induced method for converting large quantities of silver nanospheres into nanoprisms, the nanoprisms formed by this method and applications in which the nanoprisms are useful. Significantly, this light driven process results in a colloid with a unique set of optical properties that directly relate to the nanoprism shape of the particles. Theoretical calculations coupled with experimental observations allow for the assignment of the nanoprism plasmon bands and the first identification of two distinct quadrupole plasmon resonances for a nanoparticle. Finally, unlike the spherical particles from which they derive and which Rayleigh light scatter in the blue, these nanoprisms exhibit-scattering in the red, permitting multicolor diagnostic labels based not only on nanoparticle composition and size but also on shape. | 12-17-2009 |

| 20090170542 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MINIMIZING INTER-COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM MOBILE STATION-TO-MOBILE STATION INTERFERENCE - A system and method for minimizing inter-communications system mobile-to-mobile station interference includes a plurality of base stations (BS A and BS B) and a plurality of mobile stations (MS A and MS B) each communicating with a base station using a first mode of communication. A first mobile station (MS A) sends a message using a second mode of communication upon detecting interference with another mobile station (MS B) to determine the source of the interference. Once determined, the first mobile station (MS A) communicates with its base station (BS A) which, in turn, communicates with the second mobile station's base station (BS B) using a back haul network. The second mobile station's base station (BS B) may then instruct the second mobile station (MS B) to alter its transmission characteristics based upon instructions from the second base station (BS B) in order to reduce interference and improve overall communications quality. | 07-02-2009 |
