20100230970Green Energy - A tanker with underneath revolving wheels, loaded with water and generators installed on its top, while it rolls on rails on a sloping runway, creates kinetic energy. Cross shafts, connected to the centers of turning wheels, interlock lower differential gears, which through vertical connective shafts, engage upper differential gears and cause upper cross shafts turn and activate generators. Generated electricity will be transmitted by generators' connective devices to receiving circuits. After power production, water in the tanker must be emptied before the tanker be pushed to the pond to sail towards ascending rails. By raising the level of water in this section of the canal by using a divider, a towing truck can pull out the raised empty tanker onto the ground through ascending rails, place it in the loading area to be loaded with water, then pushed onto descending rails to resume electricity production.09-16-2010

20090325494Transmitter PLL with Bandwidth on Demand - An embodiment of the present invention provides transmitter having a phase locked loop that has a dynamically controllable loop bandwidth. A transmit modulator is coupled to the PLL for performing vector modulation in response to transmission symbols. Each transmission symbol comprises an amplitude signal and a phase signal. A controller is coupled to the PLL and to the transmit modulator and is operable to detect when a criteria of the transmission symbols crosses a threshold and to adjust loop bandwidth in response to crossing the threshold. The criteria of the transmission symbols may be a function of the amplitude signal or a function of the phase signal, and may be the amplitude signal, a first derivative of the amplitude signal, a second derivative of the amplitude signal, a square of the amplitude signal, a derivative of the amplitude signal squared, the phase signal, or a derivative of the phase signal.12-31-2009
20100135368UPSAMPLING/INTERPOLATION AND TIME ALIGNMENT MECHANISM UTILIZING INJECTION OF HIGH FREQUENCY NOISE - A novel and useful apparatus for and method of upsampling/interpolating a discrete-time input sample stream with time alignment utilizing the addition of randomized high frequency noise. The upsampling mechanism is an effective implementation of a second order interpolator that eliminates the need for a conventional filter as the filtering action is effectively built into the mechanism. The upsampling mechanism takes the derivative of the discrete-time input sample stream, thereby effectively providing another order of interpolation over a conventional interpolator. Before outputting the interpolated signal, an integrator takes the integral of the interpolated samples. Any processing performed between the derivative and integrator blocks effectively provides an additional order of interpolation. High frequency noise (i.e. dithering) is added to the differentiated samples in order to eliminate the spectral regrowth spurs that would otherwise appear in the output after rounding. Delay alignment is performed on the differentiated samples in order to time align both phase/frequency and amplitude samples that are processed on different paths.06-03-2010
20100188148PREDISTORTION MECHANISM FOR COMPENSATION OF TRANSISTOR SIZE MISMATCH IN A DIGITAL POWER AMPLIFIER - A novel and useful apparatus for and method of predistortion compensation of device (e.g., transistor) mismatch in a digital power amplifier (DPA). The device mismatch predistortion mechanism of the present invention addresses the problem of matching between two types of binary weighted transistors, whereby mismatched transistors cause degradation in wideband noise. The invention provides a digital predistortion mechanism which functions to pre-distort the mismatch ratio based on a data table calculated a priori enabling a polar transmitter to meet output spectrum and error vector magnitude (EVM) requirements of the particular modern wideband wireless standard, such as GSM, 3G WCDMA, etc.07-29-2010

20110237961METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROL OF NON-INVASIVE PARAMETER MEASUREMENTS - Improved methods and apparatus for non-invasively assessing one or more parameters associated with fluidic systems such as the circulatory system of a living organism. In a first aspect, an improved method of continuously measuring pressure from a compressible vessel is disclosed, wherein a substantially optimal level of compression for the vessel is achieved and maintained using perturbations (e.g., modulation) of the compression level of the vessel. In one exemplary embodiment, the modulation is conducted according to a pseudo-random binary sequence (PBRS). In a second aspect, an improved apparatus for determining the blood pressure of a living subject is disclosed, the apparatus generally comprising a pressure sensor and associated processor with a computer program defining a plurality of operating states related to the sensed pressure data. Methods for pressure waveform correction and reacquisition, as well as treatment using the present invention, are also disclosed.09-29-2011
20110263991METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROL OF NON-INVASIVE PARAMETER MEASUREMENTS - Improved methods and apparatus for non-invasively assessing one or more parameters associated with fluidic systems such as the circulatory system of a living organism, when such parameters are potentially affected by other concurrent events. In one exemplary embodiment, apparatus and methods for compensating for occlusive events (e.g., pressure cuff inflation) occurring ipsilateral to the location of parameter measurement are disclosed. Upon passive detection of signal degradation resulting from the event, the apparatus selectively enters a “wait state” wherein further processing of the hemodynamic data is suspended until the degrading event subsides. This behavior mitigates any adverse effects the event might have on the accuracy of the representation of the measured hemodynamic parameter generated by the system. In another exemplary embodiment, the measured data is analyzed in order to classify the type of event (e.g., occlusive or other), such classification allowing the system to appropriately tailor its response to the event.10-27-2011

20110028995Surgical Puncture Cinch and Closure System - A system for forming a purse string suture, including a suture applicator having a proximal handle having a suture spool mounted thereon or in an internal chamber. A length of suture is partly wound on the spool, and a hollow suture needle extends from a distal end of the handle and contains a free end of the length of suture. The suture needle projects distally from the handle in a helical shape and terminates in a sharp distal tip with an opening in one side close to the distal tip. The free end of the length of suture may extend out of the distal tip and back into the hollow suture needle through the opening. The suture needle may have a deflection segment adjacent the distal tip that is more flexible than the rest of the helical distal portion of the suture needle. A linear hollow pivot shaft extends from a distal end of the handle substantially along an axis of the helical distal portion of the suture needle. The pivot shaft has a blunt tip with a substantially larger radial profile than the shaft to prevent puncturing tissue.02-03-2011
