Title: Improved frame structure for a communication system using adaptive modulation
Inventor: STANWOOD KENNETH L
IPC: H04Q11/00
Filed: 2001-11-15
Granted: 2012-03-20
Abstract: A system and method for mapping a combined frequency division duplexing (FDD) Time Division Multiplexing (TDM)/Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) downlink subframe for use with half-duplex and full-duplex terminals in a communication system. Embodiments of the downlink subframe vary Forward Error Correction (FEC) types for a given modulation scheme as well as support the implementation of a smart antennae at a base station in the communication system. Embodiments of the system are also used in a TDD communication system to support the implementation of smart antennae. A scheduling algorithm allows TDM and TDMA portions of a downlink to efficiently co-exist in the same downlink subframe and simultaneously support full and half-duplex terminals.  The algorithm further allows the TDM of multiple terminals in a TDMA burst to minimize the number of map entries in a downlink map. The algorithm limits the number of downlink map entries to not exceed 2n + 1, where n is the number of DL PHY modes (modulation/FEC combinations) employed by the communication system.

Granted: 2011-10-04
Abstract: A method for calibrating a position sensor for placement in a patient, the method comprising: receiving at a computer, for each of a plurality of frequencies, an indication of a characteristic value of the position sensor; measuring, at the computer, an actual value of the position sensor at each of the plurality of frequencies; determining at the computer, at each of the plurality of frequencies, calibration data indicative of a deviation of the actual value from the characteristic value; and storing the calibration data in the position sensor; wherein determining the calibration data at each of the plurality of frequencies comprises calculating by subtraction a difference between the actual value and the characteristic value. Because such deviations are generally small and fall within a narrow range of values, storage of such deviations rather than actual values generally reduces consumption of the limited memory typically available in the position sensor.

Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus and method used in the cleaning out of sand in underbalanced gas wells. The present invention includes a valve subassembly equipped with an emergency shut in device to remotely control the actuation of the valve via an air or hydraulic control line. Operatively coupled to the inlet of the valve subassembly is a swivel subassembly which further enables the coupling to a tubing string. A lifting assembly attaches the valve subassembly to an elevator of a well service rig. A hardened elbow coupled to an outlet of the valve subassembly directs the gas/sand mixture being removed from the well through a hose to a collection pit. The use of the apparatus of the present invention in a sand cleanout operation allows joints of pipe to be tripped into and out of the tubing string all the while keeping the emergency shutdown device actuator connected and operational.

Abstract: Described is a method as well as a plant for preheating particulate or pulverulent material such as cement raw meal or similar material in a cyclone preheater (1), comprising at least two cyclone stages, each comprising a riser duct (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) and a cyclone (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d). The method is peculiar in that a portion of the material which is fed to at least one cyclone stage is introduced to the first part of the riser duct, viewed in the direction of travel of the exhaust gases, and is heated from a temperature of maximum 450 ~C to a temperature of at least 550 ~C, and in that the remaining material which is fed to the same cyclone stage is introduced into the last part of the said riser duct. As a result, there will be a reduction in the amount of SO2 which is discharged from the cement plant preheater as emission, without a simultaneous increase in energy consumption.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des schémas efficaces de transmission de pilotes pour des système à antennes multiples. D'une manière générale, les récepteurs MISO préfèrent un pilote transmis dans une direction spatiale tandis que les récepteurs MIMO requièrent généralement un pilote transmis dans différentes directions spatiales. Dans un schéma de transmission de pilotes, un premier ensemble de T symboles de pilotes à l'échelle est généré avec un premier vecteur d'entraînement et transmis (par exemple, en continu) à partir de T antennes d'émission, où T > 1. Si un ou plusieurs récepteurs MIMO doivent fonctionner avec le système, au moins T-1 ensembles supplémentaires de T symboles de pilotes à l'échelle sont générés avec au moins T-1 vecteurs d'entraînement supplémentaires et transmis à partir de T antennes d'émission. Les vecteurs d'entraînement sont prévus pour différentes (par exemple, orthogonales) directions spatiales. Chaque récepteur MISO peut estimer sa voie MISO sur la base du premier ensemble de symboles de pilotes à l'échelle. Chaque récepteur MIMO peut estimer sa voie MIMO sur la base du premier ensemble et des ensembles supplémentaires de symboles de pilotes à l'échelle.
