Synchronizing Uplink and Downlink Transmissions in a Wireless Device

Synchronizing uplink and downlink transmissions by a wireless user equipment (UE) device. A connection with a network may be established via a wireless link with a cell. The UE may operate in an active state during first periods of time in which uplink or downlink communications may be performed between the UE and the network. The UE may operate in a reduced-power state during second periods of time in which uplink and downlink communications are not performed. The first periods of time may alternate with the second periods of time in a repeating manner. Uplink data generated by the UE may be buffered during second periods of time and transmitted during first periods of time. Buffering uplink data in this manner may prevent the UE from immediately transitioning from the reduced-power state to the active state to transmit uplink data, which may conserve battery of the UE.

Spinal and Upper Cervical Impulse Treatment and Device

ActiveUS20080312724A1Improve accuracySuperior of applying forceElectrotherapyDiagnosticsSpinal columnData validation
The current invention is a spinal and upper cervical impulse treatment device and controller, which delivers multiple impulses of variable frequency and variable force in a linear direction, as well as rotational forces, for patient treatment. Known chiropractic impulse devices are all hand held devices. In contrast, the spinal and upper cervical impulse treatment device is mounted on a fixed stand and armature, allowing reliable positioning and directional alignment in three dimensions. Fixed mounting also facilitates ease of use. A safety coupling is incorporated to avoid patient injury due to excessive force on the treatment site in the fixed mounting scenario Smooth sinusoidal waveforms are a preferred waveform for impulse delivery and sine waves are generated digitally in the apparatus. Data validation is used to ensure correct directional alignment prior to device activation Patient safety and consistency in treatment protocols are considered in the spinal and upper cervical impulse treatment design

Single step sterilization wrap system

Disclosed herein is a single step sterilization wrapping material suitable for use, as an example, in wrapping surgical instruments and supplies for sterilization, transportation and storage. The material includes separate inner and outer wraps which, unlike previous wraps, are joined to one another. Common wrapping techniques involve wrapping items to be sterilized with two separate sheets of wrap. The present invention provides separate wraps which can be specially engineered to deliver specific properties for each sheet and then joined to one another so as to permit wrapping and opening in a neat single step process which increases efficiency and saves time and money. In special situations the outer wrap can be engineered with increased strength, the inner wrap with increased barrier properties and the inner and outer wraps can be made visually distinct from one another so that improper wrapping or opening is not a problem.

Method for Selecting a Motor Vehicle

A method for selecting or configuring a motor vehicle from a plurality of selectable motor vehicles involves providing a motor vehicle database containing a plurality of selectable motor vehicles, each having an associated first load collective data record describing properties of the motor vehicle which can be detected by a sensor system. Technical properties in a comparison vehicle are detected by a sensor system. A second load collective data record is formed by conditioning of the detected technical properties of the comparison vehicle and the two load collective data records are compared. The first load collective data record from the motor vehicle database having the smallest discrepancy from the second load collective data record is determined and the motor vehicle associated with the first load collective data record having the smallest discrepancy is selected.
