Patent EP-3769424-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FISCHER GERALD R
IPC: H03L7/07
Filed: 2018-09-28
Abstract: A clock recovery circuit for providing clock recovery from a burst signal that is periodically present and absent in a noisy channel. The recovery circuit includes an outer main tracking second-order phase locked loop (PLL) having an analog phase detector, a digital loop filter, and an analog/digital hybrid numerically controlled oscillator (NCO) that operates so that the clock recovery frequency is "frozen" to its last value from the previous burst and the phase detector is disabled during the gaps between data bursts. The NCO is implemented with an inner loop PLL that operates as a high resolution synthesizer having a low internal control bandwidth that preserves VCO phase noise. The outer main loop achieves a higher control bandwidth through direct tuning of the inner loop VCO with the outer loop tuning signal.

Abstract: Quantifying an amount of sulfur in a petroleum sample includes sequential extraction and quantification of inorganic and organic sulfur species. An exemplary process includes extracting inorganic sulfur components from the sample to yield extracted inorganic sulfur components and a residual sample, and reducing the sulfur in the extracted inorganic sulfur components to yield a first quantity of hydrogen sulfide. The organic sulfur components are extracted from the residual sample to yield extracted organic sulfur components, and the sulfur in the extracted organic sulfur components is reduced to yield a second quantity of hydrogen sulfide. The amount of sulfur in the first quantity of hydrogen sulfide and the amount of sulfur in the second quantity of hydrogen sulfide are combined to yield a total amount of sulfur in the sample.
