  • Patent number: 11623004
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions for vaccination against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) comprising a RSV F polypeptide stabilized in a prefusion conformation and an inulin adjuvant. Also disclosed herein are methods of vaccinating a subject against a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection comprising administering to the subject an RSV F polypeptide stabilized in a prefusion conformation and an inulin adjuvant. In some embodiments, the subject is a female, and the method can reduce RSV infection in the subject and/or in the offspring of the subject. In some embodiments, the method decreases vaccine-enhanced respiratory disease (VERD) and/or eosinophilia in the subject or offspring of the subject.

  • Patent number: 11601307
    Abstract: Disclosed are Methods and apparatuses for estimating one or more characteristics of the communications channel. The method comprises receiving a first wireless signal transmitted by a transmitter at a first set of frequencies in a first time slot; and receiving a second wireless signal transmitted by the transmitter at a second set of frequencies in a second time slot. The second set of frequencies partially overlaps with the first set of frequencies and the second time slot is different from the first time slot. The method further comprises jointly processing the first wireless signal and the second wireless signal to estimate the one or more characteristics of the communications channel. Corresponding apparatuses are configured to implement the methods.

  • Patent number: 11269046
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for assisting positioning or timing calculations. In one aspect the invention provides a method for assisting a determination of a position or a time, the method comprising: obtaining first phase information, the first phase information characterizing a first phase of a first wireless signal transmitted by a transmitter at a first frequency and received by a first receiver at a first location; and obtaining second phase information, the second phase information characterizing a second phase of a second wireless signal transmitted by the transmitter at a second, different frequency and received by a second receiver at a second, different location. The method further comprises comparing the first phase information with the second phase information to produce phase comparison information; and using the phase comparison information to assist in the determination of a position or a time.

  • Patent number: 11175413
    Abstract: Two wireless signals are received from transmitters in different locations transmitting at different frequencies. Phase information from the two signals is gathered for use in positioning and/or timing calculations. Calibration information is preferably also gathered to support the calculations. Information about the rate of change of phase may be gathered for use in velocity and timing drift calculations. The transmitters may be stations in a wireless infrastructure network. Assistance information may be gathered and shared to support the interception of uplink/downlink signals from the stations. Also disclosed are User Equipment, Base Stations, remote supporting services, elliptic hyperbolic relationships for interpreting and using the spatial variation of the phase difference, and positioning engines for use in the system.
