Publication number: 20190363825Abstract: In some embodiments, a bandwidth constrained equalized transport (BCET) communication system comprises a transmitter that transmits a signal, a communication channel that transports the signal, and a receiver that receives the signal. The transmitter can comprise a pulse-shaping filter that intentionally introduces memory into the signal, and an error control code encoder that is a low-density parity-check (LDPC) error control code encoder. The error control encoder comprises code that is optimized based on the intentionally introduced memory into the signal, a code rate, a signal-to-noise ratio, and an equalizer structure in the receiver. In some embodiments, the communication system is bandwidth constrained, and the transmitted signal comprises an information rate that is higher than for an equivalent system without intentional introduction of the memory at the transmitter.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2019Publication date: November 28, 2019Applicant: SANS R&D, LLCInventors: Andreja Radosevic, Predrag Ivanis, Srdjan Brkic, Djordje Sarac, Nikola Alic

Publication number: 20190358140Abstract: Cosmetic compositions are widely used to obtain certain benefits like e.g. anti-aging, skin lightening and moisturizing effect. These benefits are delivered by benefit agents (actives) like e.g. anti-oxidants, hyaluronic acid and resorcinol, pheynylethyl resorcinol and 4-alkyl substituted resorcinol. However, these actives have a certain shelf life beyond which they tend to degrade in terms of chemical activity and/or their color stability. The present invention discloses a novel process to prepare cosmetic compositions that improved color stability of resorcinol, pheynylethyl resorcinol and 4-alkyl substituted resorcinol and compositions comprising such actives when prepared as per said process.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2017Publication date: November 28, 2019Applicant: Conopco, Inc., d/b/a UNILEVERInventors: Lei HUANG, Teanoosh MOADDEL
