Title: Fluid flow control devices and methods for selective actuation of valves and hydraulic drilling tools
Inventor: DEWEY CHARLES HENRY
IPC: E21B47/18
Filed: 1999-10-28
Abstract: Flow control devices (14) and associated control methods are described for use with hydraulic tools (12), such as those in a drill string (10). The flow control device (14) is typically incorporated into a drill string (10) and is selectively operable in either a flow-through mode or a valve control mode. In the valve control mode, fluid pressure is increased or decreased within the drill string (10) to selectively actuate a valve (26) which is associated with the flow control device (14). In the flow-through mode, fluid pressure may be increased or decreased without operating the valve (26). Techniques are described for selectively moving the flow control device (14) between the flow-through mode and the valve control mode. Wellbore fluid pressure readings provide signals to a rig operator for selectively moving the device in this manner.

Title: Transmitter for transmitting digitally modulated signals with minimal spectral spreading and digital receiver therefor
Inventor: CHANDLER STEPHEN ANTHONY GERAR
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1996-09-27
Abstract: A digital transmitter for transmitting digitally modulated burst signals generates waveform symbols representative of the digital data to be transmitted, convolves series of such symbol waveforms 61-64 in a transversal filter 70 such that each waveform is delayed with respect to and overlaps a previous waveform, thereby producing a combined waveform 60, with short ramp up and down times and equating to a sequence of digital data symbols, and linearly modulates a carrier waveform f<SB>c</SB> in a modulator 71 with the combined waveform. The transmitter produces, in principle, no spectral spreading at all and does so without the use of separate ramp up and ramp down waveforms. Also mentioned are methods of routing calls and location registration data of mobile units across a network of randomly distributed fixed transceiver stations and a fast switching transmitting and receiving device for use in such networks wherein a frequency dividing bistable circuit is provided upstream of a frequency generator so that transmissions from the transmit circuit may be disabled by inhibiting action of the bistable logic.
