Patent CA-2415875-C (CA)
Inventor: LIAN MING-REN
IPC: G06K17/00
Filed: 2001-08-21
Granted: 2009-12-01
Abstract: An electronic article surveillance (EAS) system and method utilizing two transmitted signals to generate and detect a marker signal is provided. The first signal is set at or near the resonance of the marker so its energy can be transmitted and stored in the marker. The second signal is a low frequenc y magnetic field that changes the resonant frequency of the marker. Because th e marker's resonant frequency is constantly varying in repsonse to the low frequency magnetic field, the marker's response to the first transmitted signal also changes. As a result, the marker performs a modulation on the first transmitted signal. Detection of a sideband of the modulated signal indicates the presence of the marker within an interrogation zone formed by the two transmitted signals. Multiple interrogation zones can be implemented by transmitting multiple low frequency signals, one low frequency signal for each interrogation zone.

Title: Lng production in cryogenic natural gas processing plants
Inventor: WILKINSON JOHN D
IPC: C10L3/06
Filed: 2002-04-15
Granted: 2008-11-25
Abstract: A process for liquefying natural gas in conjunction with processing natural gas to recover natural gas liquids (NGL) is disclosed. In the process, the natural gas stream to be liquefied is taken from one of the streams in the NGL  recovery plant and cooled under pressure to condense it. A distillation stream is withdrawn from the NGL recovery plant to provide some of the cooling required to condense the natural gas stream. The condensed natural gas stream is expanded (14) to an intermediate pressure and supplied to a mid-column feed point on a distillation column (17). The bottom product (41) from this distillation column (17) preferentially contains the majority of any hydrocarbons heavier than methane that would otherwise reduce the purity of the liquefied natural gas, and is routed to the NGL recovery plant so that these heavier hydrocarbons can be recovered in the NGL product.

Abstract: New random excitation vectors are generated using an excitation vector generator, a speech coder or a speech decoder comprising an excitation vector processing unit, by performing different processes on at least two previous excitation vectors in accordance with externally supplied indices. The different processes are different combinations of a plurality of specific processes and the externally supplied indices are numbers for indicating random combinations of the plurality of specific processes so as to generate the new random excitation vectors. This makes it unnecessary to store fixed vectors as they are in a fixed codebook (ROM), thereby considerably reducing the memory capacity.
