Title: Wireless communication system using distributed switched antennas
Inventor: DESANTIS CHARLES MICHAEL
IPC: H04B7/06
Filed: 1995-07-20
Granted: 1999-12-07
Abstract: Increased coverage and macro diversity from a single base station in a wireless communication system by having a base station coupled to N antennas is described. Increased coverage and macro diversity are achieved by transmitting from the base station N control messages each via one of the antennas, and transmitting a data message addressed to a mobile unit via a particular one of the antennas previously assigned to the mobile unit for an active call. The mobile unit receives the control messages and the data message and analyzes the control messages to identify from the antennas a best antenna. * The mobile unit then transmits to the base station a new antenna request identifying the best antenna in an uplink control slot of a frame. The uplink control field is associated with the particular one of the antennas. The base station uses the best antenna to transmit subsequent data messages addressed to the mobile unit. A random access technique, to allow mobile units that are going from an inactive status to an active status, is provided byconnecting all base station antennas together during non-call-affiliated slots in the uplink portion of the frame.

Abstract: The method and apparatus includes lowering a blanking plug assembly into the bore of an oilfield tubular member and inserting a sealing assembly on the blanking plug assembly into the seal bore of the tubular member without sealingly engaging the seal bore.  A support shoulder on the blanking plug assembly lands on the landing shoulder of the oilfield tubular member. Wireline jars jar down on the lock sleeve of the blanking plug assembly to shift dog members radially outward into latching grooves in the oilfield tubular member.  The lock sleeve then locks the dog members into the latching grooves. The wireline jars then jar up on a plug of the blanking plug assembly to move the plug upwardly to an upper position within the blanking plug assembly. The sealing assembly is prevented from moving upward and a tapered surface on the plug is driven through the sealing assembly thereby radially energizing the sealing assembly into sealing engagement with the outer tubular member. As the plug moves upwardly, latch members disposed on the blanking plug assembly are received by grooves in the plug to maintain the plug in its upper position. The method provides definitive indications as to whether the dog members are locked into place, whether the sealing assembly is in metal-to-metal engagement with the outer tubular member, and whether the plug is latched in its upper position.

Abstract: A source position detecting method and a communications system, communications equipment and relay suitable for implementing this method. When relaying a coded data signal from one individual network to another individual network, a first relay, for instance, increases the length of preambles by 1 and when relaying to the next individual network, a second relay, for instance, decreases the length of preambles by 2.      Increment/decrement processing of the length of preambles can be carried out without decoding the main body of the coded data signal. Alternatively, preamble duration shortening accompanying the relay can be utilized and signal distortions accompanying signal transmission such as group delay and signal strength attenuation can also be utilized. Without processing the data at the relay, the destination equipment can obtain data concerning the position of the source equipment which transmitted the data signal, such as data concerning the transmission route of the data signal.
