Title: Traced fast fourier transform apparatus and method
Inventor: HU ZHONG
IPC: G06F17/14
Filed: 2001-04-09
Abstract: A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) arrangement for use in those situations in which not all of the outputs are desired is controlled in such a fashion that at least those multiplications (and possibly those additions) are not performed which do not contribute toward the desired outputs. The technique is usable in those situations in which the desired output signals are noncontiguous, or are in noncontiguous bins. The technique includes signal preprocessing in which the indices are adjusted so that the index for a particular stage points to those butterflies of the previous stage which contribute toward its output. The FFT is performed on the indexed data. In one embodiment, a pipelined FFT processor is controlled in a corresponding manner.

Abstract: A peristaltic fluid pump having a suction side and a pumping side. The pump comprises a pump housing (1) having a mainly arcuate support surface (4), a flexible tube (3) extending along this surface, a rotor (2) having two opposite rollers (10', 10") for during operation rolling over the flexible tube (3) along an entrance section (a-d) where the tube is successively compressed, a pumping section (d-e) extending across an angle of an arc of less than 180~, and an exit section (e-g) where the compression successively  ends, and a motor (12) for during operation making the rotor (2) rotate. The  arcuate support surface (4) is shaped in such a way that the rearmost and foremost rollers (10', 10") do not operate in synchronous phase opposition during their passage of the entrance and exit section respectively (a-d; e-g ). Thereby it is obtained that the peristaltic fluid pump is rendered capable o f pumping a fluid with less pressure difference and compressive pulsations in the fluid than hitherto known. The pump is especially suitable as blood pump  for pumping the patient's blood through a dialyser.

Title: Technique for signal detection using adaptive filtering in mud pulse telemetry
Inventor: BEATTIE MARK S
IPC: E21B47/18
Filed: 2000-12-08
Abstract: a mud pulse telemetry adaptive noise canceller (ANC) is provided to provide information on down hole conditions during a Measurement-While-Drilling/Logging-While-Drilling (MWD/LWD) operation. The ANC (181) employs a Signal Conditioning Box (175), Anti-Abasing Filter (177) and two transducers, each receiving a succession of signals due to a transmission device~ (158). A primary transducer (163), located downhole from both a mud pump (151) and a desurger, receives a primary signal. A reference transducer (165), located near the mud pump (151) and upstream from the desurger (153), receives a reference signal. The ANC linearly relates the reference signal to the primary signal by means of a recursive least squares algorithm and calculates weighting coefficients. The ANC (181) uses weighing coefficients to process a subsequent primary signal, thus enhancing transmission of MWD and/or LWD data thru a downhole drillpipe (157) via the medium of Mud Flow (155).

Filed: 2001-03-12
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for automatically sensing the presence (or absence) of spot dispensers such as pins in various possible mounting locations in the printhead of a microarray spotting instrument. Pin-location data obtained by the method and apparatus is provided to the computer controller of the instrument, which uses the data to control the motion of the printhead during operation of the instrument. A pin detection apparatus includes one or more sensor elements that automatically sense possible pin locations in the printhead for the presence of pins. The sensor elements are preferably arranged in an array corresponding to the array of pin locations in the printhead so that pin detection at each pin location can be performed simultaneously. Various types of sensor elements can be used to locate pins in a printhead. For example, sensors can be used that are remote from or attached to a printhead. Pin sensors can be used that sense pin locations from various positions relative to the printhead including above or below the printhead. Also, pin sensing can be by contact or non-contact mechanisms. The method and apparatus allow pin positions in a printhead to be quickly and accurately determined, and without significant risk of damaging the pins, which are fragile.
