Abstract:
The present invention provides a use of a human antibody against a hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg). The antibody exhibits an excellent HBV neutralizing ability, and thus, is useful for the prevention or treatment of the HBV infection or a disease caused thereby.
Abstract:
An AGC apparatus and method in a BWA communication system are provided, in which a MAP interpreter detects a beamformed symbol period in an (n−1)th signal, a symbol power calculator measures an average signal level of a symbol in an nth signal, and a beamforming gain calculator calculates a beamforming gain of the nth signal by adding a beamforming gain of the (n−1)th signal to a power difference between a signal of a beamformed symbol period and a signal of a non-beamformed symbol period in the nth signal using information about the beamformed symbol period of the (n−1)th signal and the average signal level of the symbol in the nth signal.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for canceling a Direct Current (DC) offset in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) communication system are provided. The method includes canceling a DC offset by performing self-calibration in a modulator/demodulator (modem), attempting initial synchronization acquisition in the modem, and if the initial synchronization acquisition succeeds, canceling a DC offset by performing DC offset trace and cancellation.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an epitope specific to hepatitis B virus (HBV) and use thereof. The disclosed epitope is a conservative position on which mutagenesis does not occur and, therefore, a composition including an antibody to the foregoing epitope or a vaccine composition including the epitope has very low possibility of causing degradation of curing efficacy due to HBV mutation, thus being very useful for HBV treatment.
Abstract:
Provided are antibodies specifically binding to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) which are effective for the treatment of EGFR-mediated cancers.
Abstract:
A block-constrained Trellis coded quantization (TCQ) method and a method and apparatus for quantizing line spectral frequency (LSF) parameters employing the same in a speech coding system wherein the LSF coefficient quantizing method includes: removing the direct current (DC) component in an input LSF coefficient vector; generating a first prediction error vector by performing inter-frame and intra-frame prediction for the LSF coefficient vector, in which the DC component is removed, quantizing the first prediction error vector by using the BC-TCQ algorithm, and by performing intra-frame and inter-frame prediction compensation, generating a quantized first LSF coefficient vector; generating a second prediction error vector by performing intra-frame prediction for the LSF coefficient vector, in which the DC component is removed, quantizing the second prediction error vector by using the BC-TCQ algorithm, and then, by performing intra-frame prediction compensation, generating a quantized second LSF coefficient vector; and selectively outputting a vector having a shorter Euclidian distance to the input LSF coefficient vector between the generated quantized first and second LSF coefficient vectors.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for removing a Direct Current (DC) offset at a receiving terminal in a wireless communication system are provided. In the method, a frame is divided into at least two time resource blocks. Resource allocation information is used to discriminate between at least one time resource block of a data-unmapped interval and at least one time resource block of a data-mapped interval. The DC offset is measured during the data-unmapped interval. The DC offset is compensated during the data-unmapped interval on a time resource block basis by using the measured DC offset.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method for Time-Varying Cyclic Delay Diversity (TV-CDD) in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes, if there is a signal of an antenna path to be transmitted, determining if a current time corresponds to a preamble zone within a frame and, if the current time corresponds to the preamble zone within the frame, shifting a partial antenna path signal forward compared to a reference timing and shifting a remaining partial antenna path signal equally or backward compared to the reference timing.
