Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03021286A2] A needle assembly (10) including a cannula (12) having a sharpened distal end (20a), a line of elements (28) in the cannula (12) extending reward from the distal end (20a). A yieldable positioner (32) positions the elements (28) more proximate the distal end (20a). The positioner (32) may be in various forms including a plug (32), a tab (214) in the cannula (12) and a distortion (364). A stylet (22) engages the line of elements (28).

[origin: WO03021286A2] A method, apparatus, and computer-readable media for determining the position of a user terminal comprises receiving (202) at the user terminal a broadcast television signal from a television signal transmitter; determining a first pseudo-range between the user terminal and the television signal transmitter based on a known component of the broadcast television signal; receiving (206) at the user terminal a mobile telephone signal from a mobile telephone base station; determining a second pseudo-range between the user terminal and the mobile telephone base station based on a known component of the mobile telephone signal; and determining a position of the user terminal based on the first and second pseudo-ranges, a location of the television signal transmitter, and a location of the mobile telephone base station.
