Abstract: A synchronization burst processor (56) used in a processing satellite (12) in a satellite based communications system (10) is provided with a sync burst memory (72), a first double correlator (74), a second double correlator (76) and a modulus module (78). The sync burst memory (72) stores at least one sync burst (52) transmitted from a terrestrial terminal (14) to the processing satellite (12) where the sync burst (52) is formed from a quadrature pair sample set {p, q}. The first double correlator (74) performs an early correlation and a late correlation of the p samples relative to a sync burst slot (50) to generate an early correlation Pe and a late correlation Pl. The second double correlator (76) performs an early correlation and a late correlation of the q samples relative to the sync burst slot (50) to generate an early correlation Qe and a late correlation Ql. The modulus module (78) determines an early modulus Re and a late modulus Rl from the early correlations Pe and Qe and from the late correlations Pl and Ql. The early modulus Re and the late modulus Rl are used to determine if the sync burst (52) is present in the sync burst slot (50) and if the sync burst (52) is early or late relative to the sync burst slot (50).

Granted: 2010-08-03
Abstract: An improved radio frequency catheter system for ablating biological tissues of body vessel in a patient including a catheter (3), a deployable antenna guide (36) disposed at the distal portion of the catheter, and a radio-frequency ("RF") antenna (54) mounted on the antenna guide. The RF antenna includes an axial passageway to accommodate the antenna guide, is adapted to receive, and transmit RF energy for tissue ablation. Upon deployment, the antenna guide acquires a loop configuration which establishes line contact with the body vessel conformable to its internal contour to prescribe the precise, and affixed tissue ablation pathway despite body vessel movements. The RF antenna is carried by the antenna guide to be deployed along the established tissue ablation pathway. Alignment of the loop with the desired tissue ablation pathway is facilitated with the use of radiopaque markers, and intra-cardiac electrodes mounted along the antenna guide. The catheter, as well as the antenna, can be provided with steering or deflection mechanism for navigation through the body vessel passageways. A hollow coaxial cable is provided for the delivery of RF energy.

Abstract: Coatings (1, 2) on a glass substrate (3) are formed by laying down layers of different thermosetting materials one upon the other in powder form on surface (4). The powder of transparent coating (1) has a higher-cure rate than that of colour coating (2) so that when heat is applied, coating (2) remains in the melt condition while the coating hardens, to bond with and enable rolling out onto coating (1), as well as bonding with a backing (5).

Abstract: A peroxyacid antimicrobial concentrate and use composition is provided comprising a C1 to C4 peroxycarboxylic acid or a C1 to C4 peroxycarboxylic acid combined with a C6 to C18 peroxyacid in beverage processing. The combination of these materials produces a synergistic effect, providing a much more potent biocide than can be obtained by using these components separately. Other components can be added to the composition such as hydrotrope coupling agents, stabilizers, etc. An effective antimicrobial use solution is formed at low concentrations when the concentrate composition is diluted with water to a pH in the range of about 2 to 8. Sanitizing of substantially fixed, "in-place" processing lines in dairies, breweries, and other food and beverage processing operations is one utility of the composition.  Another utility is in processes including aseptic cold filling of beverage containers such as cans, glass bottles or two liter PET bottles.

Abstract: The invention uses the continuous inclination, direction and tool-face information supplied from either an MWD tool and/or a rotary steerable drilling system, and/or other downhole equipment, e.g., the at-bit inclination measurement (AIM), to give a prediction of the tendency of a rotary, steerable, or rotary steerable system. These measurements are used with a finite element mathematical model of the drilling process to continually calibrate in real-time the drilling parameters that are not obtainable from measurements, and to refine the subsequent tendency prediction in real-time.  The continuous data will be used in conjunction with the accepted survey measurements (which occur less frequently than the continuous inclination and direction measurements) so that the optimum slide and rotation ratio between well sections can be selected, and drilling targets can be more accurately hit.

Abstract: An interactive information distribution system according to the present invention a session control manager having a defective channel detection module, a channel re-allocation module, and a replacement-signaling module. The session control manager is coupled to receive signals from the plurality of set top boxes, and coupled to control the digital video modulators and the assignment of communication channels to nodes. The defective channel detection module receives signals from the plurality of set top boxes, and based on the error rate and other factors determines if any of the communication channels used by the digital video modulators are defective. Upon determining that a particular communication channel is defective, the defective channel detection module signals the channel re-allocation module. The channel re-allocation module re-allocates the streams being transmitted over the defective communication channel so that they are transmitted over the other unaffected and non-defective communication channels. The replacement signaling module also identifies the defective digital video modulator and transmits this information to the network management system which in response follows a pre-defined procedure such as paging service personnel to replace the defective digital video modulator. A method for detecting and correcting a defective transmission channel is also part of the present invention.
