The solar cell modular unit has a minimal number of components which are easily manufactured and have a relatively economical cost. It has a laminar substrate having an electrically conductive layer on its top surface with a printed electrical circuit. The middle layer is heat conductive and not electrically conductive. The bottom layer is thermally conductive. A solar cell is centrally mounted on the printed circuit board. A base assembly covers the solar cell and has a vertical tunnel extending from its top surface to the solar cell. A sun shield has an aperture in its top panel that aligns with the tunnel. The sun shield snap-locks onto the base assembly top. A secondary optical element telescopically mates with the aperture in the sun shield and the base assembly tunnel. A primary light ray refractive member is positioned at a predetermined spaced location above the SOE.

This invention is directed to a method for preventing or treating bipolar disorder comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of an enantiomer of Formula (I) or enantiomeric mixture wherein one enantiomer of Formula (I) predominates: wherein phenyl is substituted at X with one to five halogen atoms selected from the group consisting of fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine; and, R, R, Rand Rare independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C&#x2013;Calkyl; wherein C&#x2013;Calkyl is optionally substituted with phenyl (wherein phenyl is optionally substituted with substituents independently selected from the group consisting of halogen, C&#x2013;Calkyl, C&#x2013;Calkoxy, amino, nitro and cyano).

This invention provides methods of treatment and/or diagnosis and/or siting of viruses including the AIDS virus and others as well as the cells which they infect. The method comprises introducing near, into or onto the virus or the cell which the virus infects, or both, minute particles. These particles possess ferromagnetic, paramagnetic or diamagnetic properties. After being localized near, in or on the virus or the viral-infected cell, the particles are inductively heated by application of an alternating electromagnetic field. The inductive heating is continued for a period of time sufficient to bring about a temperature rise to a minimum necessary to kill the virus or cell or to desirably alter the behavior of the virus or infected cell. Prior to, during or after treatment, these particles can be used diagnostically to locate and/or map the virus in the living tissue.

An efficient off-line rectified, high-power, AC-to-DC power supply is provided. High-power factor and minimal circuit size, cost, and complexity are achieved by combining switchmode power converter operation as well as conduction-mode operation. The switchmode power converter is controlled such that only a fraction of the output power is converted by the switchmode power converter. Peak power is efficiently conducted directly from an AC line to a DC output without requiring the operation of the switchmode power converter. Such control method results in high efficiency, yet also maintains a high-power factor with optimally sized, cost-effective switchmode power converter electronics. A complete, self-contained system is provided including a soft-start, full-wave bridge.

A cell extender for use in digital cellular telephone systems comprises a control module, and scanning module, and several traffic modules. The control module bidirectionally repeats the donor cell site control channels. Voice modules therein bidirectionally repeat selected donor traffic channels for mobiles. The voice module amplifies and translates the Reverse Digital Traffic Channel RDTC (transmitted by the mobile). The voice module reframes the Forward Digital Traffic Channel, and advances its timing such that RDTC signals transmitted by the mobile and repeated by the cell extender arrive at the donor with the correct timing alignment. The timing advance compensates for RF path propagation delay between the donor and the cell extender, and for any additional delay through the cell extender. If the voice module determines that the mobile is leaving the cell extender coverage area, it sends a hand-off message returning the mobile to the assigned donor traffic channel.

A downlink between a communications dispatch console and a digitally trunked radio repeater system site controller efficiently transfers message data between the site controller and the console over a standard 9.2 kilobit per second landline. A downlink trunking card identical in structure to trunking cards used in the preferred embodiment system for RF channel signal processing interfaces the site controller with the landline link. A similar trunking card on the other side of the landline link interfaces the dispatch console processor with the landline link. Message protocol and format is translated between the site controller and the landline link and between the landline link and the dispatch console. Data buffering at each end of the landline link maximizes data transfer rate over the landline, and in addition, a priority scheme insures that more important messages are transmitted over the downlink before less important messages. Retransmit-until-acknowledged protocol is used to insure reliable message transfer--and also to permit receiving units along the downlink to slow down transmitting units in order to avoid message traffic blockage.

A diversity receiving apparatus includes first and second antennas and circuitry for selecting one antenna or the other. Control circuitry analyzes signal strength received from the selected antenna and determines when the antennas should be switched. The antennas are switched when the received signal strength falls below a running average thereof; the received signal strength falls below a threshold value; or a predetermined time has elapsed since the antennas have been switched. The antennas are switched when the received signal strength falls below a running average thereof; the received signal strength falls below a threshold value; or a predetermined time has elapsed since the antennas have been switched.

A system and a method for extending coverage of a cell site in a cellular radio telephone system include a plurality of repeaters or boosters which are spaced through the region where increased coverage is desired. A first booster is in radio communication with the transceiver for the cell site. The remaining boosters are linked together, by radio transmissions, in a series configuration with only one of those linked to the first booster. A movable transceiver operating in the extended area of coverage is in radio communication with the closest booster unit and, via the serial chain of boosters in communication with the controlling cell site. As the movable unit moves along the extended area of coverage from one booster area to another, it is automatically picked up by the approaching booster and dropped by the receding booster while continuing to be in communication ultimately with the cell site via the series coupled booster chain.

A treatment of infectious diseases and enhancement of genetic engineering processes is described comprising the use of external electromagnetic energy to alter electric and magnetic dipoles intracellularly. The process comprises introducing minute particles into the interior of cells in a host organism. These particles are capable of affecting the intracellular conductivity, dielectric properties, dipole content and membrane characteristics of the cell and nucleus. The particles are introduced intravenously, intra-arterially, and/or intra-lymphatically and the organism is then exposed to an alternating electromagnetic field to introduce energy into the cells.
