Title: Method and apparatus for electrosurgically treating tissue
Inventor: HASSLER WILLIAM L
IPC: A61B18/12
Filed: 1995-07-14
Granted: 1998-03-05
Abstract: Tissue impedance or tissue impedance in combination with tissue temperature is used to control electrosurgical tissue treatment. Tissue impedance alone provides better control of electrosurgical treatment by determining an initial maximum tissue impedance, a minimum tissue impedance selecting a point between the maximum and minimum impedances, preferably the average, as an impedance threshold, and turning off rf power to the electrosurgical instrument when the impedance reaches the threshold as it rises from the minimum. Control may also be by the combination of tissue impedance and temperature. Temperature is controlled to maintain a selected preferred temperature and a maximum temperature is also selected so that if the tissue reaches the maximum temperature, power is turned off. Impedance control is combined with temperature control so that the temperature of the instrument is maintained at a selected preferred temperature unless a maximum temperature is exceeded, which normally will not happen. The impedance is also monitored with maximum and minimum values being determined as well as a threshold impedance between the max and the min. When the threshold, preferably the average impedance, is reached, power is removed from the instrument.

Title: Stamped precision lightguide interconnect centering element
Inventor: PATTERSON RICHARD ALAN
IPC: G02B6/24
Filed: 1989-03-17
Granted: 1992-04-16
Abstract: Elements for making butt splices in optical fibers are simplified when formed of a deformable material and formed to define three surfaces (18,23,30) for contacting the fibers to be spliced. The surfaces are formed between two legs (20,21) of an element such that when the legs are closed onto the fibers the surfaces center the fibers and afford a resilient spring compression reserve force on the aligned fibers to maintain them in contact and the fibers are depressed into the surfaces slightly to center the fiber cores. Should one fiber be larger than another, the surfaces will deform sufficiently to clamp onto both fiber ends and be deformed even by the smallest of the two fibers. Thus, the splice element 11 will center the cores of the optical fibers such that in aligned position 90% or better of the surfaces of the core portions be aligned.

Title: Narrow band infrared water cut meter
Inventor: LANSANGAN ROBERTO M
IPC: G01N21/35
Filed: 1999-02-25
Granted: 2002-07-11
Abstract: The present invention provides a narrow band infrared water cut meter for detecting a full water cut range of a flow stream. The water cut meter includes a light source probe for irradiating the flow stream with a narrow band of infrared light and a light detector probe for sensing infrared light passed through the flow stream. For a narrow band of infrared light of a predetermined wavelength, there is a large difference in the absorption of infrared radiation between oil and water. At such a wavelength, the narrow band of infrared light is substantially transmitted through water content and gas content of the flow stream and substantially absorbed by oil content of the flow stream. The water cut meter thus differentiates oil by treating gas like water. Unlike other water cut meters, the narrow band infrared water cut meter is independent of variations of oil and water densities, salinity, oil emulsions, varying flow rates, and the gas content of a flow stream.

Title: Adaptive frequency planning in a cellular network
Inventor: PARANTAINEN JANNE
IPC: H04W16/04
Filed: 1997-09-26
Granted: 2001-03-08
Abstract: Radio frequencies of a base station in a cellular network are chosen adaptively so that when choosing the uplink frequency the base station measure at all frequencies or at some frequencies of the reception band used in the system what is the total power of the signal received at the frequency in question. The frequency at which the lowest power is received is chosen as uplink frequency. When choosing the downlink frequency, a tuning signal is transmitted at all frequencies or at some frequencies of the transmission band. Mobiles located in areas of other cells and operating at the same frequency experience the effect of the tuning signal as an interference. The base station is tuned to use that downlink frequency at which the interference caused by itself to other traffic is sufficiently low.
