Patent CA-2388900-A1 (CA)
Title: Method and system for testing subscriber loops using touchtone telephone signals
Inventor: ERVING RICHARD HENRY
IPC: H04M3/487
Filed: 2002-06-04
Abstract: A subscriber loop test apparatus relates to the testing of a subscriber loop by the use of a touchtone telephone. The touchstone buttons on a telephone provide Dual-Tone, Multiple Frequencies for each key pressed. For example, referring to Figure 1, pressing the '3' key causes tones at 697 and 1477 Hz to be sent across the telephone line. Pressing a sequence of keys provides discrete coverage of the frequency band from 697 to 1477 Hz, through the use of the touchtone telephone. The frequency band from 697 to 1477 Hz can be characterized in this fashion. Information about the line: loop loss (loop length), presence of bridge taps (i.e., excessively long bridge taps in particular) or loading coils, and the presence of Digital Loop Carriers (DLCs), et cetera. The use of the switch-hook flash provides the ability to determine the channel (impulse) response of the loop, including any noise and hum that may be on the loop due to imbalance or coupled interference.

Title: Milling apparatus and method for a well
Inventor: BEGG STEPHEN M
IPC: E21B7/08
Filed: 2002-06-25
Abstract: A downhole system includes a deflector with a reaction surface that is engageable to a mill. The deflector is coupled to a motion mechanism that is activable to move the deflector generally along a longitudinal direction. During operation, the mill is engaged to a surrounding downhole structure, and the mill is rotated. As the mill cuts an opening in the downhole structure, the motion mechanism moves the deflector, which allows the mill to move with the deflector. A smooth motion is provided by the motion mechanism to enable a more accurate cutting of the downhole structure (e.g., casing or liner).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil multiplexeur à insertion-extraction optique (OADM) incorporant un filtre réflecteur à mécanisme d'accord, une partie ajoutée ou écartée d'un signal lumineux étant branchée et extraite comme rayonnement lumineux de contrôle, ce rayonnement lumineux de contrôle étant ensuite dérivé en deux rayonnements lumineux. Après cette dérivation, un des deux rayonnements lumineux est passé à travers un filtre optique à dépendance de longueur d'ondes. Le rayonnement lumineux de contrôle passant à travers le filtre optique et l'autre rayonnement lumineux de contrôle ne passant pas à travers ce filtre sont ensuite guidés vers les détecteurs d'un circuit de détection. On obtient alors le rapport des puissances optiques des deux rayonnements de contrôle, et le mécanisme d'accord est régulé de façon que la valeur de ce rapport soit égale à une valeur prédéterminée.
