Abstract: An antenna apparatus includes a waveguide adapter plate for mounting an antenna flange and an RF system-in-package or other IC package. The waveguide adapter plate comprises a first surface and an opposing second surface and a waveguide flange interface. The waveguide flange interface comprises a waveguide channel section extending between the first surface and the second surface and a set of flange mounting holes extending from the first surface to the second surface. The waveguide adapter plate further includes a plurality of substrate alignment pins extending substantially perpendicular from the second surface.

Abstract: An adjustable prosthesis includes an actuator for adjusting the prosthesis subsequent to surgical implantation thereof. The actuator is activated by application of an trans-cutaneous signal. A method of operating an adjustable prosthesis is also disclosed.

Abstract: Timer Activated Doggie Door Opener is an automatic pet door that has a timer and motor to allow the door to open at designated times of the day. To use the preferred embodiment of Timer Activated Doggie Door Opener, a user selects a door or exterior wall to install the device and cuts an appropriate sized opening in the wall or door to accommodate the pet door. The user then attaches the frame and tracks of the device to the wall or door. A user then plugs the timer into a standard wall outlet and sets the timer to go on at a selected time. When the appropriate time is reached, power is sent to the motor which begins to reel the wire connected to the pet door into the housing of the motor, causing the pet door to slide along the upper and lower tracks to reveal the opening in the door or wall. When the user decides to close the pet door, he simply applies manual force to the pet door to cause the reeled in wire to unwind from the housing and allow the pet door to again cover the opening in the door or wall.
