IPC: H01J47/02
Filed: 2013-12-12
Abstract: A radiation detection assembly includes an ionization chamber for detecting radiation. The ionization chamber includes a volume of pressurized gas. An exterior enclosure houses the ionization chamber within an interior volume. The exterior enclosure includes a frangible section. A relief assembly defines a gas flow path from the ionization chamber to the frangible section of the exterior enclosure. The frangible section releases pressure from within the ionization chamber when the pressurized gas within the ionization chamber exceeds a predetermined pressure such that at least some of the pressurized gas flows through the relief assembly and through the frangible section of the exterior enclosure. The pressurized gas is then released to an exterior of the exterior enclosure. A method of reducing pressure within a radiation detection assembly is also provided.

Title: Method and apparatus for data transportation and synchronization between mac and physical layers in a wireless communcation system
Inventor: BEHAR JACQUES
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2000-10-26
Abstract: The present invention is a novel method and apparatus for efficiently transporting and synchronizing data between the Media Access Control (MAC) and physical communication protocol layers in a wireless communication system. Depending on the length of the MAC packet to be transported, the present invention either fragments or concatenates the MAC packet when mapping to the physical layer. When a MAC packet is too long to fit in one TC/PHY packet, the MAC packet is fragmented and the resultant multiple TC/PHY packets are preferably transmitted back-to-back within the same TDD frame. When a MAC packet is shorter than a TC/PHY packet, the next MAC packet is concatenated with the current MAC packet into a single TC/PHY packet unless an exception applies (e.g., a change in CPE on the uplink or a change in modulation on the downlink). When an exception applies, the next MAC packet is started on a new TC/PHY packet following either a CTG or MTG.

Abstract: A method for preventing a user from being lured into an electronic transaction that is different than one they intended to launch uses a transaction processor to encrypt a payment instruction message for private display and viewing by a user mobile electronics device. The mobile electronics device is configured to forward an encrypted payment instruction from the transaction processor to decoding and display circuitry secure from other access and reserved to the display of decoded payment instructions on a private display. The user is signalled when the private display is presenting a payment instruction from the transaction processor. The user is able to signal back to the transaction processor that the payment instruction is approved. Electronic transactions can only be completed if the user has signalled back to the transaction processor that the payment instruction is approved.

Title: Method of interpreting nmr signals to give multiphase fluid flow measurements for a gas/liquid system
Inventor: APPEL MATTHIAS
IPC: G01F1/716
Filed: 2014-12-05
Abstract: A method for assessing a gas phase in a flowing multi-phase fluid comprises flowing the fluid through magnetic resonance and pre-polarization modules and applying to the fluid a radio-frequency pulse sequence at least once with and at least once without a magnetic field gradient. The method further includes measuring an NMR signal. The method also includes using a calibration between the ratio of slope and intercept of the NMR signal and flow velocity for at least one non-gas phase with the gradient applied to determine that phase's velocity. A calibration between the signal intensity of the liquid phases as function of flow velocity is used, with and without gradient, to correct the gradient-induced attenuation of the liquid signals and to calculate a gradient-corrected signal intensity of the liquid phases without a magnetic field gradient. Additionally, the method includes subtracting the gradient-corrected signal intensity from the NMR signal to calculate the volumetric fraction of the liquid phase.

Title: Dynamically-selectable multi-modal modulation in wireless multihop networks
Inventor: ALEXANDER ROGER K
IPC: H04W24/00
Filed: 2015-01-19
Abstract: In a self-organizing wireless multihop network, each node device selects operation among short-range (SR) and long-range (LR) communication modes, among which the SR mode uses a higher data rate than the LR mode. Each node device advertises connectivity link availability for neighboring node devices, and selectively initiates a link in response to connectivity availability advertised by at least one neighboring node device. The availability advertising is performed in the SR and the LR communication modes, according to a periodicity that is dynamically-variable in response to prevailing circumstances in the local neighborhood. The link initiation is selectively performed in one of either the SR or the LR communication mode based on selection criteria that include data throughput performance associated with different neighboring node devices with which connectivity is available via a certain communication mode.
