Abstract: A system and method that may be implemented in a power
inverter or controller, for example, that uses the speed of a rotor to control
the torque output of a motor of an electric vehicle. A rotor encoder coupled
to the rotor of the motor provides encoder signals that indicate the speed of
the rotor and thus the speed of the vehicle. Alternatively, wheel speed
sensors may be employed in lieu of the encoder to provide sensed signals that
are processed to produce traction control of the vehicle. By monitoring the
rate of change of the signals from the encoder or sensor, the controller
determines if the drive wheels are spinning due to loss of traction. If this
condition is detected, the controller reduces torque until traction has been
regained.

Abstract: A downhole fluid separation system is used with submersible pumping systems
to separate downhole fluids into different density fluids, recover the lighter fluids to the
earth's surface, and dispose of the heavier fluids downhole. The fluid separation system
includes a plurality of housings (38, 46) connectable one to another, each housing having
one or more fluid separators (36), such as hydrocyclones, therein with an inlet of each
fluid separator in communication with an inlet conduit (40), an overflow of each fluid
separator in communication with an overflow conduit (42), and an underflow of each
fluid separator in communication with an underflow conduit (44). The fluid separation
system can be configured for parallel flow where the conduits conveying fluids
downstream of a first housing have a greater cross-sectional flow area than
corresponding conduits in an adjacent second housing. Also, the fluid separation system
can be configured for series flow, for either the separated lighter or the separated heavier
fluids. The use of differing sized conduits in the housings as required for the actual flow
rates in each housing enable higher flow capacity fluid separators to be used than
previously possible for greater fluid handling efficiency.

Abstract: In an image packet communications system, in a
transmitter (101) side, a transmission clock (CLK1) is
generated subordinately synchronized to a reference clock,
and based on the transmission clock (CLK1), a transmission
standard signal (FLM1) is generated as synchronous with the
reference clock, so that a packet generator (104) generates
image packets based on the timing of the transmission clock
(CLK1) with reference to the transmission standard signal
(FLM1), with image packet headers attached thereto. Then,
in a receiver (105) side, a reception clock (CLK2) is
generated subordinately synchronized to the reference clock,
so that the reception clock (CLK2) is synchronized with the
transmission clock (CLK1). A packet receiver (107)
separates the image packet headers from the image packets,
and the buffer controller (109) generates a reception
standard signal (FLM2) with reference to the image packet
headers based on the reception clock (CLK2), thereby
controlling the writing and reading operation of the image
packets to and from a buffer group (108). Thus, the
transmitter and receiver ends can be stably synchronized,
despite occurrence of errors or packet losses, with simple
configuration.

Abstract: A method is provided of downloading a file from an Internet server
12 to an Internet client 10, preferably without action by the Internet
client. The method begins by associating the file into a set of
components at the server. A profile of the file is then generated. This
profile includes identifying information for the file as well as for each
component thereof. Such information preferably includes an identifier, a
size value, and a code uniquely identifying the component. The file is
transferred by initiating a download sequence by which each component is
transferred, one-by-one, from the server to the client using an Internet
protocol. When the download sequence is complete, the individual
components are reassembled into the file using the profile without action
by the Internet client. If the transmission is interrupted for any
reason, the download sequence is restarted with the component affected by
the interruption. This avoids the need to retransfer the entire file.

Abstract: When a surge occurs, a voltage is generated on the
neutral point of the Y-connected three-phase alternating
current transmission line because of losing a voltage
balance on the three-phase alternating current transmission
line. Thus the surge location is accomplished by detecting
the voltage generated at said neutral point. The neutral
point is grounded, and the surge locating system according
to the present invention is installed between said neutral
point and the grounding point. The voltage generated in
the neutral point is introduced into the surge locating
system and the detecting time thereof is stored. This
detecting time is stored in the respective stations, and
the surge point can then be located based on the detecting
time difference between the stations. This provides a
surge locating system and a method thereof locates the
surge with high accuracy and with relatively simple
