International Classification:

A61K039/08

US Classification:

424/239100

Abstract:

There is provided a method of reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles by repeatedly administering to a patient at defined time intervals a neurotoxin composition, such as BOTOX, said patient having been administered with an initial effective dosage of said neurotoxin composition based on said patient's diagnostic profile. The method comprises the step of, in accordance with a predefined administration schedule based on said patient's diagnostic profile and consisting of one or more time intervals, administering to said patient one or more incrementally decreasing amounts of said neurotoxin composition at each of said time intervals.

International Classification:

H01Q 138

US Classification:

343700MS

Abstract:

A communication system for transferring data through the air over a relatively short fixed distance comprising a transmitting antenna which comprises a leaky coaxial cable for radiating electromagnetic energy modulated with data to be transferred; and a plurality of non-linear fixed beam array antennas for receiving the modulated electromagnetic energy from the leaky coaxial cable. The plurality of fixed beam array antennas are juxtaposed with the transmitting antenna such that the transmitting antenna extends at least partially through the near-field regions of the plurality of fixed beam array antennas. The communication system also comprises a selection means which determines which radio frequency output from the plurality of non-linear fixed beam array antennas exhibits the greatest radio frequency power and outputs that particular radio frequency output to a receiver. Also described is a method of increasing the performance of an antenna system, which comprises the steps of inputting radio frequency signals from a plurality of antennas, selecting that radio frequency signal which comprises the greatest radio frequency power, and outputting the radio frequency signal comprising the greatest radio frequency power.

Abstract:

A communication system for transferring data through the air over a relatively short fixed distance comprises a transmitting antenna comprising a leaky coaxial cable for radiating electromagnetic energy modulated with data to be transferred; and a non-linear fixed beam array antenna for receiving the modulated electromagnetic energy from the leaky coaxial cable. The fixed beam array antenna is juxtaposed with the transmitting antenna such that said transmitting antenna extends at least partially through the near-field region of the fixed beam array antenna. The fixed beam array antenna comprises four conductive patch elements comprising two inner patch elements and two outer patch elements juxtaposed linearly on a substantially flat substrate, wherein each of the patch elements is arranged to transduce electromagnetic energy with corresponding electric signals. The antenna also comprises means for shifting the phase of the signals obtained from each of the two inner patch elements by an amount substantially equivalent to the difference between the time the electromagnetic beam is incident upon each inner element and the time the electromagnetic beam is incident upon each outer element; and signal adding means for coherently adding the phase-shifted signals from each inner element and the non-phase-shifted signals from each outer element.

International Classification:

H01Q 132
H01Q 138

US Classification:

343700MS

Abstract:

A composite antenna comprising a first and second antenna suitable for transceiving independent signals in the cellular communication and GPS bands. The first antenna has upper and lower electrically conductive discs of substantially the same size aligned substantially in parallel, a first means for application of a first electrical signal between and at substantially geometric centers of the discs, and a plurality of electrically conductive shunts. The second (GPS) antenna is attached atop the upper electrically conductive disc and has a second means for application of a second electrical signal to the GPS antenna which traverses the electrically conductive discs whereby there is no significant degradation in performance of either the first cellular antenna or the second GPS antenna. The shunts are electrically connected to the first electrically conductive disc and the second electrically conductive disc, whereby the first and second electrically conductive discs are spaced from each other by a volume of free space or a volume occupied by a dielectric material. Also described is an antenna for cellular communications alone, with first and second electrically conductive discs spaced from each other by a volume of free space or a volume occupied by a dielectric material, without the second GPS antenna.

Abstract:

An apparatus and method for exciting an antenna with dual frequency bands which comprises feeding a first channel of the antenna with a first signal in the VHF band such that a first current is established in a first direction resulting in a first polarization, feeding a second channel of the antenna with a second signal such that a second current is established in a second direction resulting in a second polarization, and isolating characteristics of the first channel from characteristics of the second channel and the characteristics of the second channel from the characteristics of the first channel such that both the first channel and the second channel are adapted to transmit and receive energy within the same antenna structure without appreciable coupling between the first channel and the second channel.

International Classification:

B61L 2300

US Classification:

246187C

Abstract:

A radio frequency coupling device used in conjunction with a communications system for effecting free space communications between adjacent cars on a multi-car vehicle, wherein each of the cars has coupling arms for connecting the cars to each other, and wherein each of the cars further comprises radio frequency transceivers. The RF coupling device of the present invention is implemented by mounting the first coupler housing on a coupler arm of a first car, the first coupler housing comprising a first antenna element and a third antenna element configured so as to transceive separate channels of radio frequency energy substantially out of phase from each other. The second coupler housing is mounted on a coupler arm of a second car and comprises a second antenna element and a fourth antenna element and located near the first coupler housing when the coupler arms of the cars are mechanically joined together. The second antenna element and the fourth antenna element transceive separate channels of radio frequency energy substantially out of phase from each other. The second antenna element is located near the first antenna element and substantially in phase therewith so as to couple a first channel of radio frequency energy therebetween.
