Abstract: Method for reconstructing subsurface Q models (110) from seismic data (10) by performing ray-based (60), centroid frequency shift (50) Q tomography. The seismic source waveform's amplitude spectrum is approximated by a frequency- weighted exponential function of frequency (40), having two parameters to adjust to fit the frequency shift data, thereby providing a better fit to various asymmetric source amplitude spectra. Box constraints may be used in the optimization routine, and a multi-index active-set method used in velocity tomography is a preferred technique for implementing the box constraints (100).

Title: High-voltage voltage divider and connector comprising said divider
Inventor: GARABIETA ARTIAGOITIA INAKI
IPC: H03H7/00
Filed: 2012-12-14
Abstract: The present invention relates to a resistive voltage divider comprising a plurality n of resistive elements in a configuration wherein the angles m=n-1 between each pair of elements are between 180° and 10°, characterized in that the group of elements is supported by a dielectric the shape of which is such that it allows the creepage distance of the divider to be equal to or longer than the sum of creepage distances of the individual resistances. This arrangement allows a correct insulation of the device because it maintains the outer insulation since in the event of short-circuit the current will flow through the resistances and not through the support.

IPC: H04W16/04
Filed: 2008-06-20
Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate employing distributed frequency planning and reuse factor optimization based upon forward link and/or reverse link interference management techniques. An optimal reuse factor for a base station can be determined based upon a metric that evaluates levels of service associated with neighboring base stations. Moreover, a subset of available resource sets can be selected for use by the base station;  thus, a base station specific collection of resource sets can be formed through such selection.  Further, mappings of each resource set to a set of physical resources can be disseminated in a network or portion thereof. According to another example, frequency hopping can be constrained to use of resources within a resource set (rather than across more than one resource set) as provided in a base station specific hopping pattern.
