Patent number: 9682247Abstract: The body cavity cancer treatment apparatus generates the magnetic field for use in a combined “low temperature hyperthermia” and ionizing radiation and/or chemotherapy cancer treatment protocol. Unlike other competing systems, the body cavity cancer treatment apparatus does not directly kill or ablate the cancer cells with killing temperatures rather, the body cavity cancer treatment apparatus stresses the cancer and cancer stem cells by keeping them at a nominal 42° C. for some period of time via the heating of nano-particles that have been infused into the bladder, using the generated magnetic field.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2015Date of Patent: June 20, 2017Assignee: ENDOMAGNETICS LIMITEDInventors: Michael Edward Susedik, Karl Michael Frantz, Daniel Bernard McKenna, Martin Albert Huisjen, Carolyn Perry Adams

Patent number: 8757166Abstract: The Invasive Agent Treatment System incorporates the pairing of energy fields with nano-particles to cause a thermal effect in the nano-particles, which thermal effect is transmitted into the biological cells of the invasive agent. The energy fields are derived from at least one or a combination of the following: an electric field, a magnetic field, an electromagnetic field (EM), an acoustic field, and an optical field. The Invasive Agent Treatment System provides the necessary coordination among the characteristics of the nano-particles, concentration of nano-particles, duration of treatment, and applied fields to enable the generation of precisely crafted fields and their application in a mode and manner to be effective with a high degree of accuracy.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2011Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Actium BioSystems, LLCInventors: Daniel Bernard McKenna, Karl Michael Frantz, Andrew Curtis Updegrave, Martin Albert Huisjen

Patent number: 8572176Abstract: The Forward Path Multi-Media Management System architecture enables end user devices to share a common wireless forward path of a multicast communication architecture in which the forward path delivered content is dynamically changed or modified based on a real-time, near-real-time, or delay-time basis via aggregated reverse path feedback from at least one of a plurality of end user devices. The Forward Path Multi-Media Management System periodically or continuously aggregates the feedback input received via the reverse path (having wired and/or wireless connectivity), modifies the forward path multi-media content, and delivers this dynamically modified multi-media content to the then connected population of end user devices via a wireless forward path multicast in a repetitive closed loop fashion.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2007Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: Lava Two, LLCInventors: Daniel Bernard McKenna, James Michael Graziano

Patent number: 8509748Abstract: The reverse path transaction management system enables the subscriber to receive a multicast on their wireless subscriber device via the forward path of a multicast channel or via a unidirectional broadcast channel concurrently with a plurality of other subscribers on the same multicast channel or broadcast channel. The subscribers can simultaneously initiate a transaction to purchase goods and/or services via the reverse path associated with the shared multicast channel or via a separate cellular communication connection associated with the broadcast channel. Typically, goods and/or services are offered to the subscriber as part of the multicast extant on the shared forward channel.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2007Date of Patent: August 13, 2013Assignee: Lava Two, LLCInventors: Daniel Bernard McKenna, James Michael Graziano

Patent number: 8447292Abstract: The Multi-Link Aircraft Cellular System makes use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques to improve the call handling capacity of the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network. These additional techniques can include polarization domain and ground antenna pattern shaping (in azimuth, in elevation, or in both planes). Further, if code domain separation is added, dramatic increases in capacity are realized. Thus, the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network can increase its capacity on a per aircraft basis by sharing its traffic load among more than one cell or sector and by making use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2006Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: GoGo LLCInventors: Anand K.

Patent number: 8391826Abstract: The present Reverse 911 Alarm System implements a central alarm distribution site that is capable of generating an alarm indication to warn individuals of a hazard and propagating the alarm indication to selected individuals via their wireless subscriber devices by the use of wireless multicasting in the existing cellular communication network and/or wireless-based Local Area Networks which are operational in the coverage area of the hazard. The central alarm distribution site dynamically selects the wireless coverage area to encompass the present extent of the hazard and can also provide advanced warning to individuals located in an area that extends beyond the present hazard extent area. The present Reverse 911 Alarm System thereby integrates the operation of the wireless communication network with the 911 and Reverse 911 services to provide efficient and comprehensive distribution of alarm indications to the individuals who are impacted by an emergency situation.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2008Date of Patent: March 5, 2013Assignee: Lava Three, LLCInventors: Daniel Bernard McKenna, James Michael Graziano

Patent number: 8305032Abstract: The Centralized Vehicle Load Management System is hierarchical in nature in that it detects and remediates an overload which can be highly localized at one or more electrical substations or an overload which is widely distributed as a cumulative set of sub-critical loads. The Centralized Vehicle Load Management System operates to determine the load presented to the Electric Power Grid by vehicles which are served by service disconnects which are located at a plurality of points on the Electric Power Grid. The Centralized Vehicle Load Management System regulates the demands presented by the vehicles to the E-Grid thereby to spread the load presented to the Electric Power Grid over time to enable the controllable charging of a large number of vehicles.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2009Date of Patent: November 6, 2012Assignee: Lava Four, LLCInventor: Daniel Bernard McKenna
