Patent number: 11957921Abstract: Disclosed herein is a delivery system for delivering a leadless pacemaker. The delivery system may include a catheter, which may be a guide catheter. The catheter includes a distal end, a proximal end opposite the distal end, a lumen extending between the distal end and the proximal end, and a locking hub operably coupled to the proximal end. The locking hub includes a lumen segment of the lumen. In one implementation, self-biasing of the lumen segment places the lumen segment out of alignment with a rest of the lumen. Deflecting the lumen segment against the self-biasing of the lumen segment places the lumen segment in coaxial alignment with the rest of the lumen. In another implementation, self-biasing of the lumen segment reduces an inner diameter of the lumen segment and actuation of the locking hub expands the inner diameter.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: PACESETTER, INC.Inventors: Brett Hillukka, Thomas B. Eby, Christopher Alan Hubbard, Bernhard Arnar, Bradley Knippel, Jeremiah Blue, Jennifer Heisel, Rebecca Stufft, Adam Weber

Publication number: 20240097727Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with an antenna, a receiver, and baseband circuitry coupled to the receiver over a digital interface. The receiver may receive radio-frequency signals using the antenna and may generate digital in-phase and quadrature-phase (I/Q) samples from the radio-frequency signals. The I/Q samples may have a bit width and may be transmitted to the baseband circuitry over the digital interface. The baseband circuitry may evaluate a radio condition of the receiver based on the I/Q samples. The baseband circuitry may adjust the bit width of the I/Q samples based on the radio condition. For example, the baseband circuitry may decrease the bit width when wireless performance metric data falls below a threshold and/or may increase the bit width when the wireless performance metric data exceeds a threshold. This may minimize power consumed by the digital interface without sacrificing wireless performance.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Thomas Hauser, Joachim Wehinger, Michael Weber, Andreas Augustin

Publication number: 20240078604Abstract: Systems and methods for transforming an electronic portfolio. A system includes an electronic crossing platform that receives data defining trade orders of the electronic portfolio during an initial time period; compares portions of the data to determine an imbalance of the trade orders remaining after the initial time period and receives, during a final time period, a final trade order from a fund agent device to offset the remaining imbalance. The platform receives, after the final time period, a benchmark value of the electronic portfolio from a fund device; compares the final trade order with the remaining imbalance to determine an adjustment value; converts the benchmark value to a final value by applying the adjustment value to the benchmark value; and transforms the electronic portfolio into the transformed portfolio by creating paired buy and sell orders among the trade orders received during the initial time period at the final value.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 9, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: NYSE Group, Inc.Inventors: Clifford Weber, Thomas Champion, Laura V.
