Abstract: The invention concerns a method for modelling degradation of hydrocarbons trapped in an oil deposit, or trapped by action of the bacterial population in a subjacent water zone. On the basis of data concerning the oil reservoir examined, concerning the shape and height of the reservoir, the physical characteristics of the porous environment, the thickness of the transition zone between the hydrocarbons and the water, the composition of the hydrocarbons, the flux of electron acceptors coming into the reservoir and data on the bacterial population in the water zone, a modelling is performed by discretizing the deposit by a meshing whereof the height of each mesh is the thickness of the transition zone, and the variation on the height of the deposit, of the proportion of heavy hydrocarbon fractions under the effect of biodegradation is determined by iterative adjustment within each mesh of the bacterial population to the amount of available hydrocarbons, to the available porous space, to the amount of electron acceptors present in the reservoir and the degradation capacities of said population. The invention is useful for determining the composition of oils in a deposit and in particular for locating the heaviest fractions.

Abstract: The present invention establishes a communications link between a
central office (CO) modem and a customer premise equipment (CPE) modem.
The CO modem then evaluates the performance of the communications link,
e.g. SNR measurement, automatic gain control (AGC) levels, bit error rates or input power.
Impairments on the communications link (e.g. crosstalk and bridged taps) are identified based on the evaluation
results. Next, adjustment parameters for improving the performance of the
communications link are determined. The CPE modem is then modified in
accordance with the determined adjustment parameters to establish an adjusted
communications link between the CO modem and the CPE modem e.g. a new carrier
frequency for the upstream band or a new power level for the CPE modem (power back off, PBO). In this way,
impairments such as bridged taps and cross-talk can be avoided.

Title: Method for changing voice coding mode, communication system, communication network and communication terminal
Inventor: NAGATA YOSHINORI
IPC: H04W88/02
Filed: 2003-03-25
Abstract: The invention provides a method, a communication system,
a communication network, a communication apparatus and a
communication terminal enabling the voice coding mode during
voice communication to be changed by a common operation
independently of diverse network configurations. 
     A first network monitors the communication situation
including quality of a radio link during voice communication
of a first terminal, and determines an appropriate coding mode
based on the communication situation. In addition, the first
network sends to the first terminal a first request for change
to the appropriate coding mode. Upon reception of the first
request, the first terminal sends a second request for change
of the coding mode to a second network. Upon reception of the
second request, the second network changes the coding mode of
the voice codec given to a second terminal engaged in voice
communication with the first terminal, and sends back to the
first terminal a response to the second request. The first
terminal, which receives the response to the second request,
sends back to the first network a response to the first request.
