Abstract: A compact solid-state laser has its cavity formed by
the reflection surface of a gain crystal and the reflection
surface of a chirped mirror. The pumping light is incident
to the cavity through the reflection surface of the gain
crystal or the chirped mirror, from which the laser output
is led out. Forming the cavity solely by the gain crystal
and chirped mirror enables the elimination of additional
component parts for the compensation of dispersion, so that
the whole laser system can be made compact and, consequently,
the repetition frequency can be made higher.

Title: Formation data sensing with deployed remote sensors during well drilling
Inventor: CIGLENEC REINHART
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 1998-05-27
Abstract: A method and apparatus for acquiring data representing
formation parameters while drilling a wellbore is disclosed.
A well is drilled with a drill string having a drill collar
that is located above a drill bit. The drill collar includes
a sonde section having transmitter/receiver electronics for
transmitting a controlling signal having a frequency F and
receiving data signals at a frequency 2F. The drill collar is
adapted to embed one or more intelligent sensors into the
formation laterally beyond the wall of the wellbore. The
intelligent sensors have electronically dormant and active
modes as commanded by the transmitter/receiver circuitry of
the sonde and in the active mode have the capability for
acquiring and storing selected formation data such as
pressure, temperature, rock permeability, and the capability
to transmit the stored data to the transmitter/receiver of the
sonde for transmission thereby to surface equipment for
processing and display to drilling personnel. As the well is
being drilled the sonde electronics can be positioned in
selected proximity with a remote sensor and, without tripping
the drill string, formation data can be acquired and
transmitted to the surface to enable drilling decisions based
thereon.

Abstract: A method for allocating utilization of multiple carriers in a wideband CDMA
transmission system first determines the carrier utilization/interference levels for each of
the multiple carriers. Based on the carrier utilization/interference level, carrier
assignments are allocated on an unequal basis. The allocation of the carrier assignment
biases the selection of the carriers away from higher utilized/interfered carriers. An
apparatus for implementing the method is also described.

Abstract: A tagged scene of a video stream transmitted from a first to second stations in
television broadcasting system is collected while preventing the tags from
being used for commercial cutting (i.e., indiscriminate tagged scene cutting).
The first station generates for each scene a tag includes a category, a location
for use in locating a beginning of the scene and a length. A second station
obtains a desired category from the user. Detecting a tag in the video stream,
if the category coincides with the desired category, the second station clips
from the video stream a part of the length defined in the tag from a position
located by using the location. Five solutions are disclosed: removing the length
information from tag; inserting counterfeit tags: the first station encoding a
part of tag and the second station decoding the encoded part; the first station
encoding the category and sending a category-encoded category table the
second station; and a syndrome of a combination of said category and a
parameter is used as an encoded category. The parameter may be used as
subcategory and/or super-category.

Abstract: A seat weight measuring apparatus for measuring the seat
weight including the weight of a passenger sitting on an
automotive seat comprises a seat connecting menchanisms
including arms for connecting the seat to seat fixing
portions. The arms comprise a seat side end thereof and a
car body side end thereof, wherein one end or both ends are
pivotally supported on pivots. Load sensor mechanisms for
receiving and detecting the seat weight are applied between
the car and the seat. Displacement restriction mechanisms
restrict the displacement of the seat relative to the seat
fixing portions within a predetermined range, and the
displacement is mainly caused by a pivotal motion of the
arms. Because the seat is connected to the car body by the
seat connecting mechanisms, which include pivotally
supported arms, the displacement of the seat relative to the
car body when the seat is loaded is regulated to some
extent. Hence, the characteristic of the load acting on the
load sensors is simplified, facilitating the measurement of
the weight of a passenger on the seat.

Abstract: An intravascular medical catheter (10) and method of manufacturing a medical
catheter are provided herein. The medical catheter includes a catheter shaft (12)
having an inner liner (30), a reinforcing section (32) and an outer shell (34). As provided
herein, a groove (18) is formed in the outer shell of the catheter shaft near a distal
end (20) of the catheter shaft with a laser. The groove can be filled with a fill section (33)
which is made of a relatively soft material. This improves the flexibility of the
distal end so that the medical catheter has improved tracking and movement in
the body vessel. Further, because the reinforcing section is continuous under
the groove, the catheter shaft is durable and inhibits kinking during movement in
the body vessel.

Abstract: An interposer for interconnection between microelectronic circuit panels (260) has contacts (250) at its surfaces. Each contact has a central axis normal to the surface and a peripheral portion adapted to expand radially outwardly from the central axis responsive to a force applied by a pad (262) on the engaged circuit panel. Thus, when the circuit panels (260) are compressed with the interposers, the contacts expand radially and wipe across the pads (262). The wiping action facilitates bonding of the contacts to the pads, as by conductive bonding material (246) carried on the contacts themselves.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A network switch executes high-speed switching operations using 100
Mb/s or 1 Gb/s wire rates using layer-2 (Ethernet or IEEE 802.3) or layer-3 (IPv4
or IPv6) protocol by concurrently executing a plurality of instructions in a

decisions for each received packet at either the layer-2 level or layer-3 level. The
switching logic includes a lookup processor configured for concurrently executing
a plurality of instructions within a prescribed number of clock cycles, where
separate logic components within the lookup processor perform an instruction
operation each clock cycle for a different instruction. Hence, the lookup
processor performs concurrent processing of multiple instructions without the
necessity of multiple redundant logical devices. The concurrent execution of
multiple instructions effectively eliminates the delays normally encountered from
accessing a memory over two clock cycles.
