摘要:
The present invention relates to methods to increase the number of analyte-related signals used to provide analyte measurement values, e.g., when two or more analyte-related signals are used to obtain a single analyte measurement value a “rolling” value based on the two or more signals can be employed. In another aspect, interpolation and/or extrapolation methods are used to estimate unusable, missing or error-associated analyte-related signals. Further, interpolation and extrapolation of values are employed in another aspect of the invention that reduces the incident of failed calibrations. Further, the invention relates to methods, which employ gradients and/or predictive algorithms, to provide an alert related to analyte values exceeding predetermined thresholds. The invention includes the above-described methods, one or more microprocessors programmed to execute the methods, one or more microprocessors programmed to execute the methods and control at least one sensing and/or sampling device, and monitoring systems employing the methods described herein.
摘要:
A method is provided for continually or continuously measuring the concentration of target chemical analytes present in a biological system, and processing analyte-specific signals to obtain a measurement value that is closely correlated with the concentration of the target chemical analyte in the biological system. One important application of the invention involves a method for signal processing in a system for monitoring blood glucose values.

A lamp assembly is provided. The lamp assembly has a housing that functions as a heat sink for the dissipation of heat therefrom. A plurality of light emitting diodes are also present and are configured to be driven by a current regulated by a linear current regulator and a switch mode current regulator. Thus, the amount of heat generated through driving the plurality of light emitting diodes is decreased such that the housing is optimally sized and still function as a heat sink.

A lighting apparatus emitting polychromatic light comprising light of at least two light-channels with different colors, wherein each light-channel is controlled by one modified pulse-width-modulated signal (modified PWM-signal), and each modified PWM-signal results from the modulation of one color-pulse-width-modulated signal (color-PWM-signal) with an intensity-pulse-width-modulated signal (intensity-PWM-signal) in order to control the brightness and color location of the polychromatic light.

A scrambling system for a cable television system in which a group of channel frequencies are reused over a plurality of service areas includes an access controller, an encoder and a plurality of simplified scrambling units. Each service area receives different television signals on the group of channel frequencies. The access controller provides signal authorization information for a given channel frequency to a plurality of receiver/decoders located in the different services areas. The access controller also provides descrambling information corresponding to the signal authorization information to the encoder for the given channel frequency. The encoder produces a conditional access code by placing the descrambling information into a scrambled reference signal. An extracting unit removes the conditional access code from the scrambled reference signal and distributes the conditional access code to each of the simplified scrambling units operating at the given channel frequency. Each simplified scrambling unit scrambles the television signal that is to be delivered to its respective service area and inserts the conditional access code into the scrambled television signal.

A modular headlamp assembly includes a low beam headlamp module, a high beam headlamp module, and front turn/parking lamp module. The low beam headlamp module and the high beam headlamp module are supported by a reflector carrier. Each of the high and low beam headlamp modules includes a heat sink and mounting assembly with a heat sink portion bisecting a reflector member. The headlamp includes a lens with a wire heating element embedded therein and a wire heating element circuit board affixed to the lens. A thermistor is affixed to the lens for sensing when the lens reaches a predetermined condition and a micro-controller is provided for activating or deactivating the wire heating element based on the predetermined condition sensed by the thermistor.
