Title: Method and apparatus for controlling transmission gated communication system
Inventor: BUTLER BRIAN K
IPC: H04Q7/30
Filed: 2000-07-18
Abstract: The present invention is a novel and improved method and system for communicating a frame of information according to a discontinuous transmit format. In particular, the present invention describes a method of transmitting eighth rate speech or data frames employing transmit gating and energy scaling which simultaneously reduces the battery usage of a variable rate wireless communication device (50), increases the capacity of the reverse link and provides reliable communication of the eighth rate frames. In the present invention, four methods are presented for transmitting an eighth rate data frame in which half of the frame is gated out and the remaining data is transmitted at nominal transmission energy to accomplish the aforementioned goals. In addition, a power control system identifies forward link power control bits that have been gated out by the remote station (50) and inhibits adjustment of the transmission energy in response to that identification.

Title: High efficiency integrated gasification combined cycle power plant
Inventor: ROLLINS WILLIAM S III
IPC: F02C6/18
Filed: 2007-07-27
Abstract: A system and method for integrating gasification processes with membrane oxygen separation, advanced steam conditions, and effective heat recovery. Through the integration of synergistic technologies, a highly efficient Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant can be constructed. A combined cycle power plant that includes substantial amounts of duct firing in its Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) can be used in conjunction with membrane oxygen separation to provide the necessary air heating to the range of 1470 to 1650° F. This high-end energy in the HRSG can also be utilized to create more steam at elevated conditions in the HRSG, and thus provide additional cold feedwater for cooling in the HRSG and for cooling in both the gasification and oxygen membrane separation processes. When CO2 release to atmosphere is to be minimized, the invention may utilize a synergistic hydrogen membrane separation technology.

Abstract: An absorbing layer of a low-E coating is designed to cause the coating to have a more neutral and/or green color at normal and/or certain off-axis viewing angles. In certain example embodiments, the metallic or substantially metallic absorbing layer (e.g., NiCr) is from about 20-30 angstroms (~) thick; this thickness has been found to unexpectedly provide less red and more neutral coloration for the coated article at certain off-axis viewing angles (e.g., at a 45 degree off-axis viewing angle). In certain example embodiments, the absorbing layer is provided between first and second nitride layers in order to reduce or prevent oxidation thereof during heat treatment thereby permitting predictable coloration to be achieved following the heat treatment. Coated articles according to certain example embodiments of this invention may be used in the context of insulating glass (IG) window units; vehicle windows, other types of windows, or in any other suitable application.
