20100075338 | Whole Blood Assay - A method and apparatus to estimate the concentration of a target substance (e.g. Cholesterol or CRP) in the plasma component of awhole blood sample without the need to separate the red blood cells from the plasma prior to testing, thereby simplfying the design and construction of the test device. The invention achieves this by measuring the analyte under investigation in a time dependent (bio-/immuno-) chemical reaction and measuring separately, a marker substance (e.g haemoglobin) for the estimation of red blood cell volume, using a non-time-dependent alteration in physical property of the reaction mixture (in this instance, transmission) attributed to inherent filter effects on sample addition. These non-time- dependent changes are not part of the reaction chemistry, and are resolved from the time dependent alteration in physical property caused by the assay chemistry by continuous measurement and mathematical modelling. Algorithms that combine these two parameters are used to estimate the target substance and compensate for variations in the percentage haematocrit of the sample. The method equalises the assay response for subtle variations in patient sample (e.g. haematocrit). | 03-25-2010 |

20100014510 | PACKET BASED COMMUNICATIONS - This invention is applicable to packet based, rate limited radio links, such as satellite or terrestrial wireless digital communications systems. These communications networks concurrently carry time-critical traffic, such as voice or multimedia, and non time-critical traffic, such as generic data traffic, between two or more communication end points. The communication end points may be connected through a number of heterogenous networks and the end to end throughput characteristics may vary over time. A first aspect of the invention concerns a method for generating packets. In other aspects the invention concerns a computer system for use in packet based communications, a computer protocol for packet based communications and a communications packet. The invention involves determining a “time slice” packet size from the link speed and the interval of time extending between the times at which packets are selected for output from a buffer to the transmission interface. It also involves creating a network packet from frames of time-critical data generated during the interval, where the packet is synchronised to both existing timing requirements of the time-critical frames and the link speed. Then, adding non time-critical data to the network packet if its size had not exceeded the determined “time slice” packet size. | 01-21-2010 |
