Title: Resolution enhancement system for networked radars
Inventor: VENKATACHALAM CHANDRASEKARAN
IPC: G01S7/28
Filed: 2010-10-20
Granted: 2016-11-03
Abstract: Embodiments provide methods, systems, and/or devices that can provide measurements of the inherent reflectivity distribution from different look angles using N radar nodes. Doppler weather radars generally operate with very good spatial resolution in range and poor cross range resolution at farther ranges. Embodiments provide methodologies to retrieve higher resolution reflectivity data from a network of radars. In a networked radar environment, each radar may observe a common reflectivity distribution with different spreading function. The principle that the underlying reflectivity distribution should remain identical for all the nodes may be used to solve the inverse problem to determine intrinsic reflectivities.

Title: Piston valve
Inventor: COLLINS PHILIP JOHN
IPC: F16K1/32
Filed: 2011-05-10
Granted: 2015-11-05
Abstract: The invention relates to a piston valve comprising a piston chamber and a piston reciprocally moveable within the chamber between a closed position and an open position. A groove runs around the outer wall of the piston and retains a sealing element for sealing between the piston and the chamber. The 5 groove or inner wall of the chamber has a varying diameter such that when the piston is in the closed position the sealing element is compressed between the groove and the chamber, and when the piston moves towards the open position the sealing element moves to a position adjacent a diameter that causes at least a reduction in compression of the sealing element. This aids in reducing friction against piston movement when the valve is caused to open. 14-0~ '3'0
