20080240299 | Demodulation of 16-QAM, DCM data symbols using two hybrid-QPSK constellations - In one embodiment, a demapper uses two hybrid-QPSK constellations to demap pairs of equalized data symbols recovered from 16-QAM, DCM OFDM symbols, wherein the equalized data symbols in a pair correspond to the same four-bit group. A first hybrid-QPSK constellation is generated by combining the real components of both 16-QAM mapping constellations onto one coordinate plane. The demapper generates a first set of two decision variables by combining the real components of each equalized data symbol in a pair to correspond to the first hybrid-QPSK coordinate plane. A log-likelihood ratio is then calculated for both decision variables in the set to determine likelihood estimates for the first and second bits of the four-bit group. This process is repeated for the imaginary components of each corresponding pair of equalized data symbols to generate likelihood estimates for the third and fourth bits of the four-bit group. | 10-02-2008 |
20090207926 | ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLEXING USING SUBSYMBOL PROCESSING - In one embodiment, a transmitter converts digital input data into combined-OFDM signals and a receiver recovers data from the transmitted combined-OFDM signals. For transmission, digital data is mapped into data symbols using a commonly known modulation technique, such as QAM or DQPSK. The data symbols are subsequently divided into two or more groups according to a specified grouping pattern. Each group of data symbols is then converted into a separate OFDM subsymbol using IFFT processing. The OFDM subsymbols are then combined according to a specified combining pattern to create a combined-OFDM symbol. Combined-OFDM symbols are then prepared for transmission by affixing cyclic prefixes, converting the symbols to analog format, and performing spectral shaping of the analog signal. Upsampling may be employed to increase the signal bandwidth. In alternative embodiments, OFDM subsymbols may be combined using interleaving to create an interleaved-OFDM symbol. | 08-20-2009 |

20090136965 | Use of antibody-ligand binding to characterise diseases - We have found that when an antibody binds to (captures) its specific ligand, the antibody-ligand complex is redirected to a route of elimination which is different from that which occurs naturally for the specific ligand that is not bound to an antibody. As a consequence, the amount of antibody-bound ligand in the blood increases over time. The increase in total ligand concentration is a property that is specific to the patient to whom the antibody is administered. Accordingly, the invention provides a method for diagnosing disease in a subject and a method for identifying the most appropriate treatment for a particular patient. Patients who produce more ligand, and thus more antibody-ligand complex, may be more likely to have a disease which is predominantly driven by that ligand. These patients should respond better to a therapy targeted against that ligand. The better understanding of the underlying malfunctions in disease biology provided by the methods of the invention, in respect of the rates of production of natural ligands in health and disease, provides a logical and targeted selection of the appropriate treatments to address specific biological abnormalities. | 05-28-2009 |

20140316789 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPLEMENTING CROSS-FADING, INTERSTITIALS AND OTHER EFFECTS DOWNSTREAM - Systems and methods are presented for cross-fading (or other multiple clip processing) of information streams on a user or client device, such as a telephone, tablet, computer or MP3 player, or any consumer device with audio playback. Multiple clip processing can be accomplished at a client end according to directions sent from a service provider that specify a combination of (i) the clips involved; (ii) the device on which the cross-fade or other processing is to occur and its parameters; and (iii) the service provider system. For example, a consumer device with only one decoder, can utilize that decoder (typically hardware) to decompress one or more elements that are involved in a cross-fade at faster than real time, thus pre-fetching the next element(s) to be played in the cross-fade at the end of the currently being played element. The next elements(s) can, for example, be stored in an input buffer, then decoded and stored in a decoded sample buffer, all prior to the required presentation time of the multiple element effect. At the requisite time, a client device component can access the respective samples of the decoded audio clips as it performs the cross-fade, mix or other effect. Such exemplary embodiments use a single decoder and thus do not require synchronized simultaneous decodes. | 10-23-2014 |
20150073812 | SERVER SIDE CROSSFADING FOR PROGRESSIVE DOWNLOAD MEDIA - In exemplary embodiments of the present invention systems and methods are provided to implement and facilitate cross-fading, interstitials and other effects/processing of two or more media elements in a personalized media delivery service so that each client or user has a consistent high quality experience. The effects or crossfade processing can occur on the broadcast, publisher or server-side, but can still be personalized to a specific user, thus still allowing a personalized experience for each individual user, in a manner where the processing burden is minimized on the downstream side or client device. This approach enables a consistent user experience, independent of client device capabilities, both static and dynamic. The cross-fade can be implemented after decoding the relevant chunks of each component clip, processing, recoding and rechunking, or, in a preferred embodiment, the cross-fade or other effect can be implemented on the relevant chunks to the effect in the compressed domain, thus obviating any loss of quality by re-encoding. A large scale personalized content delivery service can be implemented by limiting the processing to essentially the first and last chunks of any file, since there is no need to processing the full clip. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention this type of processing can easily be accommodated in cloud computing technology, where the first and last files may be conveniently extracted and processed within the cloud to meet the required load. Processing may also be done locally, for example, by the broadcaster, with sufficient processing power to manage peak load. | 03-12-2015 |

A user may be able to transport objects to one or more geographic locations where object identification devices detect the objects. Virtual content may be unlocked responsive to the detection of objects by the object identification devices. | 02-19-2015 |

20130078139 | CONTROL OF DEFORMATION-INDUCED IMPERFECTIONS TO ENHANCE STRENGTH OF METALS AND ALLOYS - The disclosed invention specifies: 1) a metal or alloy with specific characteristics of its Deformation-induced Volumetric Microstructural Imperfections (DIVMI), 2) a method to measure these imperfections, and 3) a method to control these imperfections in a way that enhances one or more of strength, ductility, and the high cycle fatigue endurance limit of metals and alloys. The invention recognizes that all deformation-processed metals or alloys contain DIVMI and that through Severe Plastic Deformation processing one can minimize the characteristics of DIVMI that limit mechanical properties. Application of the methods to measure and control imperfections allows one to produce metals and alloys with strengths approaching the theoretical limit of strength. | 03-28-2013 |

20140306464 | SECURITY DEVICES FOR DOORS - A door security device for preventing opening of a door. A first device includes a bar that seats against a doorframe on opposite sides of the door and a clamp that clasps a door latch and applies a force to draw the bar against the doorframe while pulling the door latch toward the bar. The door cannot be opened away from the bar. A second device has a bar that seats against a doorframe at the floor with a two plates that extend beneath the door and around to opposite sides of the doorframe. Removable pins or other locks obstruct the plates from sliding along the bar. The bar is tall enough that the door cannot pass over the bar, thus obstructing the door from opening inwardly. A closer cover slides over a mechanical door closing mechanism to be used alone or with the other devices. | 10-16-2014 |
