Abstract: A method of function prioritization in a multi-channel voice-datalink radio is provided. The method comprises suspending transmission of one or more data messages on a communication channel when transmission of a voice message is active on the communication channel, buffering the one or more data messages while the transmission of the voice message is active, and resuming transmission of the buffered one or more data messages on the communication channel when the transmission of the voice message ends.

Abstract: A system and method for determining a received signal frequency by sampling the received signal at a rate less than twice a predefined nyquist rate. The system includes a distorting component configured to distort the received signal in a frequency dependent manner, at least one analog to digital converter configured to sample the received signal and the distorted signal at a rate less than twice a predefined nyquist rate, and a processing component configured to determine a frequency of the received signal based on the sampled received signal and the sampled distorted signal. The method includes distorting the received signal, sampling the received signal and the distorted signal at a rate less than twice a predefined nyquist rate, and determining a frequency of the received signal. In an embodiment, distorting includes at least one of distorting an amplitude or a group delay of the received signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting a signal across multiple Nyquist bands. The systems include an analog to digital converter (ADC), a clock signal generator configured to output a sample clock signal to the ADC, and a processor configured to process sampled signals and control the clock signal generator. The processor is configured to iteratively identify a desired signal, determine whether a possible interfering signal exists at a next sampling rate, and instruct the clock signal generator to generate the next sampling rate if the processor determines that a possible interfering signal does not exist. The methods include sampling an input signal at a first sampling rate, processing the sampled signal to extract information from a desired signal, determining whether a possible interfering signal exists at a next sampling rate, and sampling at the next sampling rate if it is determined that a possible interfering signal does not exist.

Abstract: Described herein are methods and apparatuses for receiving a desired signal at a signal receiver with an undersampling frequency. A signal converter with a local oscillator frequency, a bandpass filter, and an analog-to-digital converter are used to generate an aliased discrete-time spectrum from an input analog spectrum. In order to determine the presence of interfering signals in the aliased discrete-time spectrum and, if present, separate a desired signal from the interfering signal, the local oscillator frequency is shifted. The original discrete-time spectrum and the resulting shifted discrete-time spectrum are both analyzed to select a local oscillator frequency that does not cause interference with the desired signal when the discrete-time spectrum is generated. The selected local oscillator frequency is then utilized to process the desired signal.

Abstract: The invention provides an array comprising a substrate and a set of addressable elements, wherein each addressable element comprises (i) a polynucleotide that specifically binds to a target molecule, (ii) a polypeptide that specifically binds to target molecule, or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii), wherein the target molecule is selected from the group of cancer-related target molecules as defined herein. Related kits, methods, and uses as described herein are further provided by the invention.

Abstract: A mono-ski for alpine skiing to which both of the skier's boot bindings are mounted such that the skier's boots are side-by-side, close together and both facing forward. The widest part of the forward or shovel area of the mono-ski is 30 percent or more wider than the narrowest part of the central or waist area of the mono-ski. The mono-ski has concave side cuts which are 3/4 of an inch or more. The forward or shovel area of the mono-ski slopes gradually upward over at least the forward 15 percent and the rear or tail area slopes gradually upward over at least the rear seven percent of the total length of the mono-ski. The skier's boots are positioned rearward of the center, the thickness of the mono-ski is greatest at the central or waist area, the bottom is flat transversely without grooves and the mono-ski has camber. The bottom running surface should be of polyethylene or similar material.

Abstract: A security fence system employs a plurality of very thin, high tensile strength, highly stressed wires arranged relatively close together and between each of which is connected an electrical resistance. A voltage source causes a current to flow through the series-connected wires and resistors. An annealed segment can be formed in each high tensile strength wire and located between the points where each wire is attached to the fence posts, to make stretching of the wires without breaking them impossible. A sensing circuit is connected to the fence and includes voltage comparators and potentiometers for providing adjustable triggering levels. The comparators detect when the current flowing in the fence is altered and trigger an alarm if any of the wires are broken, or if any of the wires contact one another. The alarm can be turned off only by normalizing the fence and actuating a reset switch.

Abstract: A security fence system in which single-strand wires are arranged in pairs and stretched between conventional fence posts. Electrical current is passed through the pair of wires which are arranged such that upon disturbing the wires by attempting entry into the fenced area the current path will be altered, the condition sensed by a detection device, and an alarm is set off.
