  • Publication number: 20190276813
    Abstract: The present invention is in the field of automatic dishwashing detergent compositions, as well as methods of making and using same. In particular, it relates to an automatic dishwashing detergent composition comprising a new protease. The automatic dishwashing detergent composition provides improved cleaning and finishing. In particular the composition of the invention provides better proteinaceous removal at the same level of other proteases available in the market. This also alternatively allows for the use of a lower level of the protease of the invention and therefore a more cost effective composition.

  • Patent number: 10411831
    Abstract: A wireless charging in-band communication system includes a channel encoding for message error correction and detection. A modulation module performs biphase modulation for DC balanced signals and impedance switching to change reflected impedance seen by the source. A synchronization module prepends the message with a synchronization sequence having Golay complementary codes. A receiver module receives the message from the transmitter module. A preamble detection block has a Golay complementary code correlator used for message detection, synchronization, and equalization coefficient estimation and selection. A decoding module that performs biphase demodulation with error correction with a DC offset being estimated as the average value of the signal over the length of the message before channel decoding. The decoding module performs equalization, error correction and detection channel decoding.
