US Patent:

45381500, Aug 27, 1985

Filed:

Jan 10, 1983

Appl. No.:

6/456676

Inventors:

George D. Bone - Severna Park MD

Assignee:

Westinghouse Electric Corp. - Pittsburgh PA

International Classification:

G01S 740
G01S 718

US Classification:

343 177

Abstract:

An apparatus and method for calibrating the output signal of a receiver having amplification over a predetermined input signal amplitude range has been described incorporating means for generating a sequence of reference signals each having a predetermined amplitude, means for coupling the sequence of reference signals to the input of the receiver, means for sensing the output reference signals of the receiver, means for storing output reference signals indicative of the amplitude along with corresponding input reference signals to provide a table of receiver input and output signals over the dynamic range such as 70 dB of the receiver. Unknown input signals are calibrated by looking up and comparing the amplitude of the output received signals of the receiver with stored output reference signals in the table and selecting the corresponding known input signals previously provided by the calibration signals. The invention overcomes the problem of accuracy and stability in the gain of the receiver over a wide dynamic range, such as 70 dB, and for non-uniform amplitude gain between a plurality of receiver channels.

International Classification:

A61F 13/56

US Classification:

128844, 60438503

Abstract:

A protection device can include a first, barrier layer of moisture-proof material and a second, absorbing layer of absorbent material with respective openings therein for receiving a penis of a sexual partner during intercourse. The barrier layer is provided adjacent to the male sexual partner, and the absorbing layer material is provided adjacent to the female sexual partner. The absorbing material may absorb bodily fluids from intercourse while the barrier layer prevents such bodily fluids from reaching the male sexual partner, for example, to protect clothing or prevent bodily contact. The barrier and absorbing layers may have the same size in plan view. Alternatively, the barrier layer may be larger than the absorbing layer to provide an increased region of protection from bodily fluids. The protection device may also be provided with a condom, separately or coupled to the barrier and/or absorbing layers, to enhance protection from bodily fluids.

International Classification:

G06Q 10/00

US Classification:

705 1

Abstract:

In one exemplary embodiment, a method and system for an automated intelligent parallel processing enabled architectural framework for supporting electronic human services (EHS) is disclosed. The system and method may include, for example, a methodology and process environment component having an intelligent parallel business process, a collaborative environment component, and a knowledge enablement and augmentation environment component that are operatively interconnected via an intelligent broker component/module.
