Abstract: A portable antenna terminal includes a deck on which is mounted a storage frame, and on which there is also supported an antenna that includes a kingpost shaft and a modular reflector that is formed from a plurality of reflector panels and a central reflector hub. The storage frame defines a storage space for storing the plurality of reflector panels and a receptacle for secured reception of the reflector hub. When fully loaded with all terminal components, the terminal has a total weight of equal to or less than 10,000 lbs., preferably equal to or less than 7,500 lbs., and more preferably equal to or less than 5,000 lbs. In a storage configuration, with the modular antenna components secured in stored positions, the terminal has dimensions equal to or less than 84 in. L×104 in. W×92 in. H.

Abstract: Closure systems, kits and methods for sealing a percutaneous puncture or other opening in a blood vessel wall, body cavity or biopsy tract are disclosed. A closure system can comprise an implant assembly, a delivery assembly, and an introducer sheath. The closure system can further comprise a valve bypass and a dilator. The implant assembly can include an inner member, a sealing membrane, and an outer member, each of which can be delivered by the delivery assembly. The inner member can be extended through the puncture or opening and positioned adjacent an inner tissue surface. The outer member can be positioned adjacent an outer tissue surface. The sealing membrane can have a distal end attached to the inner member, a proximal end including an opening configured to receive the outer member, and a mid-region therebetween.

Abstract: A package identifier for a package from which an application is installed on a computing device is obtained. The package identifier is assigned to each of one or more processes created for running the application and, for each of the one or more processes, whether the process is permitted to access a resource of the computing device is determined based at least in part on the package identifier.

Abstract: Vascular dilator systems, kits, and methods allowing for sheathless introduction of a treatment device into a body vessel or body cavity are disclosed. A vascular dilator system can include a dilator assembly, including a tubular shaft and a deformable member, and optionally, the treatment device. The deformable member can include a non-biodegradable material and can have a diameter at a proximal end portion that is greater than a diameter at a distal end portion. The distal end portion of the deformable member can be coupled to an outer surface of the tubular shaft, at or near a shaft distal end portion. The proximal end portion of the deformable member can include a diameter configured to receive or stretch around a distal end portion of the treatment device. In use, the deformable member can provide a tapered bridge between the outer surface of the tubular shaft and an outer surface of the treatment device.

Abstract: Balloon systems for treating bifurcated lumens include desirable burst and folding characteristics. In some cases, the balloon systems can be formed by varying the wall thickness of a balloon parison.

Abstract: A medical device for insertion and expansion within a bifurcated lumen is described. An expansion region of the device has regions thereon which, in some cases, enable the device to fold into a predetermined configuration upon deflation. The regions may be defined by differing modulus of the device material.

Abstract: A circuit and method for generating an Error Correcting Code (ECC) based on an adjacent symbol codeword that is formed in two clock phases. In an embodiment, a set of m bits of a first symbol and a set of m bits of a second symbol from a first set of data for transmission over a channel during a first clock phase are generated. A set of n bits of the first symbol and a set of n bits of the second symbol from a second set of data over a channel are also generated during a second clock phase. Other embodiments are also claimed and/or disclosed.
