摘要:
A satellite communication system includes at least one base station, at least one satellite that can be brought into communication connection with the base station for data transmission, and a plurality of receivers adapted to receive signals transmitted from the satellite. The communication system is designed to transmit data in at least one uplink data stream from the base station to the satellite with a first data transmission rate and to transmit data in at least one downlink data stream from the satellite to the receivers with a second data transmission rate. The first data transmission rate is lower than the second data transmission rate and the satellite is provided with a data storage adapted to store the data transmitted from the base station to the satellite and to supply the data provided for the transmission to the receivers.

A suturing apparatus comprises a pair of jaws. A bendable needle housed in one of the jaws is adapted to carry a suture. An optional suture receiver may be disposed adjacent to the opposite jaw. A transition block curves the needle and directs it in a direction generally unparallel to an axis of the carrying jaw. The needle may also be configured to retrieve a suture. A retaining mechanism holds a suture in place to be engaged by the needle. The jaw housing the needle may include a lateral opening through which the suture may be inserted. The needle may also include a lateral notch which may be aligned with lateral opening to receive the suture. An actuator coupled to the needle enables the user to move the needle proximally to align the notch with the lateral slot.

A manually actuated breast pump is provided. The breast pump has a breast cup, pump mechanism and a container. The components of the breast pump are easily assembled and disassembled to facilitate use, cleaning, manufacture and transport. The breast pump can apply a negative pressure, a positive pressure or both to a user's breast. The breast pump provides fluid isolation between the pressure source and the expressed milk.

A breast cup for use with a breast pump for expressing breast milk is provided. The breast cup sealingly separates the air flow from the breast milk, provides a barrier against impingement of the flexible insert by the user's breast and provides a massaging member for facilitating expression of the breast milk.

A method of processing video image data for use in the storage or transmission of moving digital video images, includes decomposition of each frame image into an equivalent set of sub-images containing information on different length scales, derivation of encoded prediction rules from the decomposed data to approximate each sub-image using data from the immediately preceding compressed sub-image and data from the current sub-image to produce compressed data of an image for subsequent storage or transmission to a receiver and reconstruction, after retrieval or receipt, by comparison of the compressed data received for the current frame image with the reconstruction of the preceding frame image.
摘要:
A process and apparatus are provided for controlling the alignment of a transmit laser beam (1a) of a first coherent detection optical communications transmitter/receiver terminal with a further coherent detection optical communications transmitter/receiver terminal relative to a receive laser beam (8). The first terminal incorporates a transmit laser beam generator (1) operable to form and pass the transmit beam (1a) through a point ahead mechanism (2) to a telescope assembly (6) operable to receive the receive laser beam (8). The apparatus includes a detector/receiver unit, means (3) for taking a component (1b) of the transmit laser beam (1a) from the transmit laser beam (1a) for receiving the receive laser beam (8) from the telescope assembly (6) and for feeding the transmit laser beam (8) to the detector/receiver unit (10), and means (16, 17, 18, 19, 20 ,21, 22, 23, 24) for detecting, separating and processing the received transmit laser beam component (1b) and received receive beam (8) at the detector/receiver unit (10) to provide signals indicative of the actual alignment of the transmit and receive beams (1a, 8), means (25) for comparing the actual alignment signals with desired alignment values to generate difference signals and means for operating the point ahead mechanism (2) in dependence upon the generated difference signals variably to control the alignment of the transmit beam (1a) relative to the receive beam (8).
