20130163930 | NON-CONTACT OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR COMPONENT - An optical fiber connector component that is useful for joining and connecting fiber cables, particularly in the field. A joinder component includes a fiber ferrule coaxially housing a short section of optical fiber with a rearward flanged sleeve that allows the fiber to extend through it. Rearwardly the flanged sleeve extends into a connector body where a fusion splice of the fiber section to the main fiber cable is hidden. Forwardly, the fiber facet and ferrule have anti-reflection coatings and are configured so that the fiber has an output facet recessed slightly relative to the forward polished end surface of the ferrule so that when two ferrule end surfaces are brought together in an adapter, respective fiber facets are slightly spaced apart thereby avoiding wear on fiber facets due to physical contact, yet having good optical communication. | 06-27-2013 |

A capacitance profile for setting the frequency of the phase lock loop at a process corner, such as a typical process corner is stored in driver software or a host processor.

During a frequency change, the capacitance of operating the phase lock loop is determined from the capacitance profile and stored capacitances. In one aspect, the capacitance of the phase lock loop is presumed to change linearly with frequency and the two stored capacitances are used to determine a difference capacitance at the selected frequency by linear interpolating between the two stored capacitances. The interpolated difference capacitance is added to the capacitance in the capacitance profile at the selected frequency to generate an operating capacitance. The capacitance of a tank circuit of the phase lock loop is set to the operating capacitance. | 04-09-2009 |

20130053664 | ELIMINATION OF THE EFFECTS OF IRREGULAR CARDIAC CYCLES IN THE DETERMINATION OF CARDIOVASCULAR PARAMETERS - Methods for determining a cardiovascular parameter, e.g., a parameter reflecting fluid or volume responsiveness, using a modified waveform dataset are described. The waveform dataset corresponds to a signal, for example, from an arterial blood pressure, or any signal proportional to, or derived from the arterial pressure signal. These methods involve identifying individual cardiac cycles in the waveform dataset, measuring the waveform characteristics for the individual cycles, then determining if the individual cardiac cycles are regular cardiac cycles or irregular cardiac cycles. Once any irregular cardiac cycles are detected, a respiratory parameter is measured. Next, a modified waveform dataset containing the waveform characteristics of the regular cardiac cycles and the waveform characteristics of the irregular cardiac cycles is created wherein the waveform characteristics of the irregular cardiac cycles are replaced with estimated waveform characteristics. Finally, a cardiovascular parameter is determined using the modified waveform dataset. | 02-28-2013 |
