OPTICAL REMOTE NODE DEVICE AND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT FOR CONSTRUCTING AND EXTENDING FIBRE-OPTIC ACCESS NETWORKSThe Remote Node performs all-optical interfacing between a metropolitan ring and the access trees to the homes, thus enabling a transparent metro-access converged optical network. The device performs the functions of wavelength add&drop, ring protection and optical amplification with remote pumping. It is composed by a number of optical elements not requiring electrical power supply.

Measuring Technique for Reducing the Number of Voltage Sensors in a Modular Multilevel ConverterUsing this measuring technique, each voltage sensor is able to measure the capacitor voltages of multiple Sub-Modules (SMs) of a Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC). The proposed technique highly reduces the number of voltage sensors used in MMCs, reducing the costs and complexity of the data acquisition system. Partners to further develop the system and/or to establish commercial agreements along with technical cooperation are sought.

Biopolymer-containing calcium phosphate foam for bone regenerationThe Challenge Hidroxyapatyte is a natural mineral found in teeth and bones. It is commonly used as a filler to regenerate bone or as a coating to promote bone growth. The application of calcium phosphate cements, which can form hydoxyapatite, in the treatment of bone defects, begun more than two decades ago and many formulations have been developed so far. The ideal bone replacing cement should be osteoconductive and osteoinductive, to stimulate bone regeneration. Moreover, it should be resorbable and gradually replaced by newly formed bone. Although most of the developed calcium phosphate cements are more resorbable than sintered hydroxypatite ceramics, they still show relatively slow resorption kinetics and in many cases the cement remains stable in the implanted site during years. The absence of interconnected macropores is indeed a limiting factor to achieve resorption. If the designed material has macropores, cells can colonize it and the access of osteoclasts is facilitated increasing the rate of healing of the bone defect.
