Title: Non-linear compensation of timing jitter
Inventor: HAUENSCHILD JUERGEN
IPC: H04B10/00
Filed: 2005-01-31
Granted: 2012-01-03
Abstract: Systems and methods for compensating transitions in a data stream to account for fitter including laser fitter. Transitions in the data stream are delayed or advanced depending on the laser fitter and/or whether the previous transition is a rising or falling transition. The compensation of transitions is non-linear such that compensation applied to a rising transition is not necessarily the same as compensation applied to a falling transition. A history of more than one or more bits or transitions of the data stream can be used to further adjust the compensation of transitions in the data stream. When a transition is detected, the bit following the detected transition is peaked either positively or negatively such that the following transition is accordingly delayed or advanced.

Title: Method of manufacturing ethylene oxide from ethylene and oxygen
Inventor: EVANS WAYNE ERROL
IPC: C07D301/10
Filed: 2004-02-26
Granted: 2012-09-25
Abstract: Described is a method of manufacturing ethylene oxide using a high selectivity epoxidation catalyst. The method includes operating an ethylene oxide manufacturing system that comprises an epoxidation reactor system, an ethylene oxide recovery system, and a carbon dioxide removal system that are operatively connected to each other so as to provide for the partial oxidation of ethylene with oxygen to yield ethylene oxide and the recovery of ethylene oxide product. To provide for a low carbon dioxide concentration in an epoxidation reactor feed, a substantial proportion of the ethylene oxide recovery system carbon dioxide containing gaseous product of from at least 30 percent upwardly to 100 percent is fed to the carbon dioxide removal system which yields a carbon dioxide depleted gas stream. The carbon dioxide depleted gas stream is combined with oxygen and ethylene to provide the epoxidation reactor feed.

Abstract: A battery controller for charging and discharging a plurality of batteries is disclosed. The battery controller has a plurality of direct current to direct current (DC to DC) converters connected to each other in series. Each battery of a plurality of batteries is electrically connectable to a respective DC to DC converter. A co-ordinator connected to each of the plurality of DC to DC  converters controls charging and discharging of the battery electrically connected to the respective converter. The co-ordinator can also control charging and discharging of any one of the batteries to ensure that the battery retains sufficient electrical capacity, and, to increase the longevity of the respective batteries. Because each battery is electrically connected to a respective DC to DC converter, the energy from one battery can be used to charge another battery in order to monitor battery characteristics including energy capacity of each battery. Each of the DC to DC converters is selected to operate preferably below 30 volts while the total voltage of the entire battery system can be much more than 30 volts depending on the number of DC to DC converters placed in series.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des techniques de basse puissance permettant la détection de pulsations cardiaques dans un signal provenant d'un capteur (101). Un bloc (102) de détection de pulsations détecte le signal du capteur et il détermine son rapport signal/bruit. Après comparaison du rapport signal/bruit avec un seuil, le courant d'attaque des éléments photoémetteurs dans le capteur est ajusté de façon dynamique pour réduire la consommation d'énergie tout en maintenant le rapport signal/bruit à un niveau adéquat. La composante de signal du signal du capteur peut être mesurée par identification de transitions systoliques. Les transitions systoliques sont détectées à l'aide d'un mécanisme de calcul de moyenne de dérivée maximum et minimum. Le minimum mobile (301) et le maximum mobile (304) sont comparés à la somme (312, 313) mise à l'échelle du minimum mobile et du maximum mobile pour identifier les transitions systoliques. Une fois la composante de signal identifiée, la composante de signal est comparée à une composante de bruit pour calculer le rapport signal/bruit.
