Title: Methods and apparatus for polarization control
Inventor: ZHANG HONGBIN
IPC: H04B10/02
Filed: 2005-03-10
Granted: 2011-06-21
Abstract: Methods and apparatus of performing polarization control for optical transmissions are provided. The methods and apparatus enable polarization control devices to achieve a desired output state of polarization regardless of the input state of polarization. The desires state of polarization can be achieved by rotating waveplates in a polarization controller in a sequential fashion. Each waveplate may be continually adjusted or dithered so long as the feedback signal satisfies a feedback condition. Once the feedback signal exceeds the feedback condition, the next waveplate in the polarization controller is adjusted. This enables the methods and apparatus to rapidly adjust the state of polarization away from dead spots and minimize loss control problems.

Title: System and method for tank pressure compensation
Inventor: VAITSES STEPHEN P
IPC: F02M25/08
Filed: 2005-02-16
Granted: 2012-09-04
Abstract: A supplemental fluid tank (10), preferably having two chambers (16, 18) each partially containing a fluid (22), fluid communicated intermediate a fuel tank (6) and vent (14) to reduce fuel vapor emissions, particularly for a boat. More specifically, when fuel is used or cooled, pressure or volume, respectively, of the remaining fuel in the fuel tank (6) is reduced in prior art systems. Accordingly, air is drawn into the fuel tank (6) through the vent line (8) and becomes saturated with fuel (i.e., fuel vapor). Conversely, when fuel in the fuel tank (6) is warmed it expands and fuel vapor is forced out of the vent (14) into the environment. An exemplary embodiment reduces entry of air in through the vent (14) and escape of fuel vapor out of the vent (14) using two intermediate chambers (16, 18) in fluid communication with each other, each preferably having a non~-evaporative fluid (22) (e.g., oil), to provide volume/pressure compensation of the fuel in the fuel tank (6).

Title: Occupancy sensor and method of operating same
Inventor: WOYTEK TIMOTHY W
IPC: H05B37/02
Filed: 1998-02-04
Granted: 2008-11-18
Abstract: A multiple sensing technology-based occupancy sensor. Ultrasonic and infrared sensors are used to produce first and second occupancy estimator signals that are combined using a fusion based detection algorithm to produce a combined estimator signal. The combined estimator is then used to switch electrical loads when the combined estimator signal is above a predetermined threshold. The result is an occupancy sensor that has a very high probability of occupancy detection and a low probability of false tripping. In addition, infrared sensitivity is adjusted based upon an estimation of the background noise in order to minimize the occurrence of false tripping.
