Patent CA-2216059-C (CA)

Abstract: This invention relates to the recovery of oil from an oil-bearing formation having a natural fracture network with substantial vertical communication and wherein gravity drainage is the primary means of recovery. A downwardly inflating gas-cap is pressured up with a chase gas having a density less than that of CO2.CO2 is injected and a CO2-rich displacing slug is formed at the gas-liquid hydrocarbon contact. The chase gas is injected to facilitate displacing downwardly the CO2-rich displacing slug to recover hydrocarbon from the reservoir. CO2 is replaced in the displacing slug as the CO2 is solubilized into the oil, including matrix oil, to facilitate recovery thereof. The oil is recovered through production wells in fluid communication with the reservoir, preferably the inlet to the well is below the water-liquid hydrocarbon contact at such a level to prevent free-gas production. The chase gas has a density less than that of the CO2 and is comprised mostly of nitrogen; however, it can contain other gases such as methane, ethane, CO2, and miscellaneous gases. The chase gas is injected at a rate to minimize mixing of the chase gas with the CO2 and to facilitate gravity segregation of the CO2 from the chase gas. The CO2 in the CO2-rich displacing slug can be replenished by incorporating CO2 into the chase gas and permitting the CO2 to gravity segregate downwardly while the less dense gases move upwardly.

Title: Tcm decoder of high definition television receiver and decoding method
Inventor: SHIN HYUN-SOO
IPC: H04N19/70

Granted: 2000-08-15
Abstract: A trellis-coded modulation (TCM) decoder of a high-definition television (HDTV) receiver for a US-type terrestrial broadcasting, and a decoding method thereof.  The TCM decoder includes:  a segment sync suspension unit for directlyconnecting the data before and after 12 symbols from a segment sync when as input HDTV signal has passed through as NTSC rejection filter (8-state case), and for passing the input HDTV signal unchanged when the input HDTV signal has not passed through the NTSC rejection filter (4-state case); a field delay for directly connecting the data of the data segment just before the field sync segment to the data of the date segment just after the field sync segment; and a Viterbi decoder for decoding the output of the field delay in both an 8-state case and a 4-statecase.  Therefore, decoding is performed in consideration of the effects of uncoded segment sync and field sync signals, thereby achieving stable decoding.
