Inventor: NISSOV MORTEN
IPC: H04B3/46
Filed: 2004-10-22
Abstract: The soft decision thresholds in a soft decision forward error correction (FEC) system may be adjusted based on mutual information of a detected signal. In one embodiment, a recursive algorithm may be used to optimize threshold values by maximizing the mutual information. In another embodiment, an adaptive scheme may be used to optimize threshold values based on a pre-knowledge of the noise in the channel. In a further embodiment, an adaptive scheme may be used to optimize threshold values without pre-knowledge of the noise in the channel.

Title: Method and conduit for transmitting signals
Inventor: MADHAVAN RAGHU
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2006-03-27
Abstract: An expandable tubular sleeve having utility for lining a downhole tubular member includes a tubular body having a portion that is predisposed to initiate expansion thereof under the application of internal fluid pressure. The predisposed portion of the body may be a plastically-deformed portion formed, e.g., by application of mechanical force to a wall of the body. The predisposed portion of the body may be defined by a portion of the body having reduced wall thickness. The reduced wall thickness may be achieved, e.g., by reinforcing the wall thickness everywhere except the predisposed portion. The predisposed portion of the body may be formed by modifying the material properties of the body, e.g., by localized heat treatment. The sleeve and related apparatuses and methods are useful for securing and protecting a cable having one or more insulated conductive wires for transmission of signals between locations downhole and at the surface.

Title: Intermittent application of syngas to nox trap and/or diesel engine
Inventor: LIU KE
IPC: F01N3/08
Filed: 2004-10-14
Abstract: A catalytic partial oxidizer (30) provides syngas (hydrogen and carbon monoxide) to an apparatus intermittently using syngas such as valves (34) feeding NOx traps (35), for brief periods of time. During turndown times when syngas is not being used, either the output of the CPO is diverted (33) to the inlet (13) of an engine (12) through the engine gas recycle (EGR) system (43-46), or the amount of fuel (19) and exhaust (23) applied to the CPO is reduced (24, 26; 59, 60) so that the CPO merely stays warm and in a reduced state, thereby being ready to restart immediately. A mini-CPO (62) may provide syngas and heat to the major CPO (30) during the turndown time when syngas is not being used by the NOx traps.

Title: Hydroconversion catalysts and methods of making and using same
Inventor: KLEIN DARRYL P
IPC: C10G45/06
Filed: 2004-11-18
Abstract: Stable catalyst carrier impregnating solutions can be prepared using a component of a Group VIB metal, e.g., molybdenum, at high concentration, a component of a Group VIII metal, e.g., nickel, at low concentration, and a phosphorous component, e.g., phosphoric acid, at low concentration, provided that the Group VIII metal is in a substantially waterinsoluble form and a particular sequence of addition of the components is followed, even when a substantially water insoluble form of the Group VIB component is used. The resulting stabilized impregnating solution can be supplemented with additional Group VIII metal in watersoluble form to achieve increased levels of such metal in the final catalyst. Furthermore, uncalcined catalyst carriers impregnated with stable solution and subsequently shaped, dried and calcined, have unexpectedly improved performance when used in the hydroprocessing of heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks. High conversion can be achieved at reduced levels of sediment, especially in comparison to standard commercial catalysts.

Abstract: A non-invasive method is described for identifying contours with complex structures having an error recognition rate tending towards zero, which method can be used to distinguish and identify features of a slaughtered animal body with respect to each other, said method being utilized on the basis of a characteristic piece in particular to determine, by means of image processing, data for calculating the muscle-meat percentage, the trade classification and the associated trade value and market value, and also to rate the quality of slaughtered animal bodies, taking into account legal requirements. In accordance with the invention, during error recognition of contours of a slaughtered animal body which have complex structures and which are to be distinguished and identified with respect to each other, an operator at a workstation in the form of a PC interacts with the computer and provides sufficient indications relating to the unidentified or incorrectly identified contour to be sought, in that by employing an image reproduction device at least one support point is in each case set in the illustration of an image of the region of interest of the slaughtered animal body in one or several regions, in which data is to be determined from measurements.
