Abstract: An arc crowbar with electrodes (34A, 34B, 34C) separated by a gap (35) in a protective case. Each electrode is connected to an electrically different conductor of a circuit. A sensor (42, 44) detects an arc flash condition on the circuit and signals a trigger circuit (52) to send an electrical pulse to an arc-triggering device (36) in the arc crowbar gap. The triggering device ionizes a portion of the gas between the electrodes, initiating a protective arc between the electrodes that absorbs energy from the power circuit and trips a breaker, eliminating the arc flash condition. The triggering device may be a plasma gun, especially one that injects plasma of an ablated material into the gap. The sensor may signal a circuit breaker (26) to open in the power circuit. Arc flash sensor types may include a differential current sensor and/or an optical sensor.

Abstract: Pilot transmission schemes suitable for use in wireless multi-carrier (e.g., OFDM) communication systems. These pilot transmission schemes may utilize frequency, time, or both frequency and time orthogonality to achieve orthogonality among the pilots transmitted by multiple base stations on the downlink. Frequency orthogonality is achieved by transmitting pilots on disjoint sets of subbands. Time orthogonality is achieved by transmitting pilots using different orthogonal codes (e.g., Walsh codes). The pilots may also be scrambled with different scrambling codes, which are used to randomize pilot interference and to enable identification of the transmitters of these pilots. Pilot interference cancellation may be performed to improve performance since subbands used for data transmission by one transmitter may also be used for pilot transmission by another transmitter. Pilot interference is estimated and then subtracted from received symbols to obtain pilot-canceled symbols having improved quality.
