Patent CA-2448055-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LOVSETH SIGURD WEIDEMANN
IPC: G01L1/24
Filed: 2002-05-22
Abstract: Optical device for distributed sensing of a measurand and/or changes thereof where the spectral transmission and reflection characteristics of the device depend upon the measurand. A passive sensing section have at least one Bragg grating sensing structure in a waveguide. The Bragg grating sensing structure comprises at least two superimposed or partly overlapping Bragg subgratings with at least two different Bragg wavelengths. At least two of the said Bragg subgratings comprise a phase-shift. The Bragg subgratings have their phase shifts spatially separated from each other along the waveguide sensing section. The sensing section can be made active by at least partly doping it with rare earth ions and forming a laser medium, or an active component.  Examples of using the passive as well as the active sensing sections in optical distributed sensors are described.

Patent CA-2452108-A1 (CA)
Inventor: JOHNSON MARK J
IPC: G01S5/12
Filed: 2002-05-13
Abstract: A first device (100) transmits a first signal to a second device (300) at a first time. A third device (110) detects a second signal from the second device (300) at a second time. The second signal was transmitted in response to detection of the first signal. Based on the first and second times, a sum of a first propagation delay (200) and a second propagation delay (210) is estimated. The first propagation delay (200) is between the first device (100) and the second device (300), and the second propagation delay (210) is between the second device (300) and the third device (110). The sum of the first and second propagation delays (200, 210) is then used to estimate a location of the second device (300).

Title: Super compressed detonation method and device to effect such detonation
Inventor: ZHANG FAN
IPC: F42B12/06
Filed: 2003-12-11
Abstract: A method and apparatus for high pressure compression of materials and for detonation of the compressed material by cylindrical implosion followed by an axial detonation to a detonation velocity several times that of TNT and a detonation pressure in excess of ten times that of TNT. The device provides a conical metal flyer shell within which is disposed a cylindrical anvil surrounded by explosive. The anvil retains a sample material to be compressed and detonated. A first detonation of explosive by impact of the flyer shell generates a reverberating oblique shock wave system for sample compression. Axial detonation of the compressed sample through any length of a sample is achieved following the principal of matching the axial velocity and compression time of the oblique shock wave system to the detonation rate and induction delay time of the compressed sample. The method and apparatus are also applicable to enhancing the effect of anti-armour and anti-hard-target munitions. The apparatus is also applicable to inert sample compression to the megabar range without using the axial detonation.
