Publication number: 20100098716Abstract: A recombinant fusion protein comprising a human erythropoietin peptide portion linked to an immunoglobulin peptide portion is described. The fusion protein has a prolonged half-life in vivo in comparison to naturally occurring or recombinant native human erythropoietin. In one embodiment of the invention, the protein has a half-life in vivo at least three fold higher than native human erythropoietin. The fusion protein also exhibits enhanced erythropoietic bioactivity in comparison to native human erythropoietin. In one embodiment, the fusion protein comprises the complete peptide sequence of a human erythropoietin (EPO) molecule and the peptide sequence of an Fc fragment of human immunoglobulin IgG1.

Publication number: 20080139233Abstract: Open loop transmit power calculations made by a wireless communication receiving device use only the portion of the received signal power that is due to the transmitting device serving the wireless device, rather than using the total received power from all transmitting devices. In one embodiment a discernable signal trait of, such as a preamble, is used to identify signal power from a serving transmitter. In some embodiments, open loop power control may also used to transmit power limits established from closed loop power control sessions, in order to minimize power fluctuations. Digitally scaling data values compensates for transmitter power level settings by adjusting data values prior to modulation such that the modulated waveform contains a different power level than the original data values would provide.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2007Publication date: June 12, 2008Applicant: Adaptix, Inc.Inventor: Haitao Wang

Publication number: 20080137563Abstract: Offsets in the transmit clock in a wireless communication system are corrected by using data distributed over many frequencies. In the time domain the system uses separate copies of the same signal transmitted with a known spacing in terms of transmit clock signals. The variation of timing between the received signals yields an initial estimate that then is used in a closed loop tracking arrangement to yield and compensate for unpredictable rate changes caused by, for example, jitter, Doppler or thermal drift. The frequency offset for one channel can then be used to calculate the offset for other channels.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2007Publication date: June 12, 2008Applicant: Adaptix, Inc.Inventor: Haitao Wang

Publication number: 20080130801Abstract: A system and method are provided for automatic gain control (AGC) using an adaptive reference and a threshold. An adaptive reference allows for adjusting the target power based on variations in operating parameters and conditions, such as a change to a modulation schemes which requires a different signal to noise ratio (SNR) to maintain performance. A gain adjustment threshold allows for rapid AGC response while reducing the potential effects of hysteresis. AGC levels may be changed during symbol prefixes or suffixes, and avoided during a data portion of a signal. Embodiments allow for symbol-by symbol AGC changes in OFDM, OFDMA, and TDD systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2007Publication date: June 5, 2008Applicant: Adaptix, Inc.Inventor: Haitao Wang
