Abstract: Battery-driven stimulators for electrotherapy usually equip with a small battery to generate specified current waveforms applied to human body for stimulation. Such current waveforms can easily get into a saturated status due to high bio-impedance and low battery power. The present disclosure provides a system in which the waveform is adjusted according to feedbacks taken from a patient to reduce or avoid saturation.

Abstract: Devices and methods are described that generate personalized therapy protocols for home use of therapeutic medical devices. The devices include an intuitive user interface to guide user to select proper settings, a personalized therapy protocol-generating approach according to user selection and personal profile, and follow-up therapy protocol adjustments to achieve optimized results based on feedbacks collected from past treatments.

Abstract: This present disclosure describes systems that use a constant current source to generate biphasic waveforms. In one example, a positive, constant current is generated from a single constant current source, and then applied to either end of an output workload in an alternating manner, such as at a predefined frequency. In another example, a constant current source is used to generate a positive phase, and a constant current sink along with a voltage source are used to generate a negative phase. An alternating adoption of these two phases, therefore, gives rise to the application of a biphasic waveform on an output workload.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to generate an waveform for micro current therapy. The waveform includes overshoot signals overlaid on constant currents and is capable of stimulating cells or nerves to achieve healing. The system can include an oscillator configured to generate a reference signal, a pulse wave generator to generate a pulse waveform signal based on the reference signal, an overshoot generator to generate an overshoot signal based on the reference signal, and an output module to generate a composite output waveform signal based on the overshoot signal and the pulse waveform signal, wherein the composite output waveform includes one or more pulses having one or more overshoots that extend a width of each of the pulses. The system can be adjusted by a user depending on the disease, condition, or preference of the user.

Abstract: A media content distribution system for distributed multimedia streaming communicates over a network and incorporates multiple independent media stations, each having a media director for control and a number of media engines for storage, retrieval and streaming of media content. A middleware system employing a execution engine for service platform middleware and a presentation engine for terminal middleware is provided for flexible interfacing with network transport and home network elements respectively and the IPTV applications supported.

Abstract: An EPG service architecture incorporates multiple EPG servers connected in a cluster with each EPG server having an EPG service module and a dispatcher. Each dispatcher has the capability for state determination as an active or standby dispatcher. A plurality of STBs interface with the EPG server cluster and issue requests for EPG service which are routed by the active dispatcher. The routing is accomplished by redirection of the request to an EPG service module selected from the multiple EPG servers in the cluster. Each EPG service module includes the capability for service connection to the STB upon receiving the redirection from the active dispatcher. Upon a determination that the current active dispatcher is not operating, the standby dispatchers vote for a replacement which then assumes the active dispatcher role.

Abstract: An EPG service architecture incorporates multiple EPG servers connected in a cluster. An active dispatcher is associated with at least one EPG server and multiple standby dispatchers are associated with the cluster. A plurality of STBs interfaced with the EPG server cluster issue requests for EPG service for which the active dispatcher employs an affiliation table as a portion of the cache for redirecting each request to a specific one of the EPG servers affiliated with the STB issuing the request. The active dispatcher multicasts the affiliation table to the multiple standby dispatchers for synchronization.
