  • Publication number: 20090192464
    Abstract: An implant for percutaneous implantation through the abdominal wall for encircling and engaging an externalised length of a body duct of a human or animal patient. The implant has an exterior ring section protruding outwardly from the abdominal wall with a free end which serves for mounting of a detachable device, and an interior section extending through the abdominal wall and inside the patient for internal fixation of the implant. The exterior ring section and interior section have a common axis. The internal circumference of at least a part of the exterior ring section above the interior section is arranged with a biocompatible, integrated ingrowth means for the exterior surface of the body duct wall.

  • Publication number: 20080167077
    Abstract: The invention discloses a system (200) for cellular mobile telephony, comprising a base station antenna (500, 600, 700) and a plurality of cells (203, 310, 320, 330). Each cell has an area defined by an azimuth (?1, a2) and a range (R0 R?), and the first (310) and second (320) cell cover respective areas, said areas being defined by first (?1,) and second (?2) azimuths and first and second ranges (Ro) respectively. The first and second cells are essentially adjacent to each other in azimuth, and the system also comprises a third cell (203, 330) with an area coverage defined by a third azimuth and a third range (R?). The third azimuth is essentially the same as, and coinciding with, the total azimuths of the first and the second cell, but the third cell has a range coverage which is much smaller than the first or second range coverages.

  • Publication number: 20080102776
    Abstract: An antenna device for a radio base station in a mobile cellular telephony network. The device includes a first sub-antenna with a first feed network for distributing signals within the first sub-antenna, and a second sub-antenna with a second feed network for distributing signals within the second sub-antenna. The first and second feed networks are connected to a common main feed network, thus providing the device with a single feed port. A first controller controls one or both of the sub-antennas, and may introduce time delays in signals being transmitted or received by one or both of the sub-antennas. The device may also include a second controller for controlling the common main feed network.

  • Publication number: 20060103489
    Abstract: A method and a system for transforming between one or more point type sources and a line source in a transmission line structure. A transmission line path controller is inserted between a first parallel-plate waveguide section and a second parallel-plate waveguide section. The transmission line path controller comprises a curved side to which one end of each waveguide is coupled. The transmission line path controller further comprises a waveguide slot, one side of which is a part of the curved side, coupling the waveguide ends that are coupled to the transmission line path controller. The ends of the waveguides that are not coupled to the transmission line path controller forms the point type source and the line source, respectively.
