Title: Method for providing assistance data to a mobile station of a satellite positioning system
Inventor: CORAZZA STEPHANE
IPC: G01S1/00
Filed: 2006-11-07
Granted: 2010-04-29
Abstract: Satellites of a satellite positioning system broadcast within the navigation signals ephemeris data having a certain period of validity. At a mobile station, ephemeris data are required for position-fixing. In assisted satellite positioning systems, acquisition of navigation signals emitted by the satellites is facilitated as assistance data are provided to the mobile station. At a server station, a request for assistance data issued by said mobile station is received, and the server station transmits ephemeris data as part of the assistance data to the mobile station in response to its request. The ephemeris data transmitted to the mobile station comprise long-term ephemeris data derived from satellite orbit predictions. The long-term ephemeris data have a period of validity substantially increased with respect to the ephemeris data broadcast by the satellites.

Title: Energy harvesting apparatus and method
Inventor: CLINGMAN DAN J
IPC: H02N2/18
Filed: 2007-11-01
Granted: 2013-05-09
Abstract: ENERGY HARVESTING APPARATUS AND METHOD An energy harvesting apparatus (10, 101, 200). In one form the apparatus (10) makes use of a pair of flexible beams (12, 14) that are supported at first ends (12a, 14a) thereof from a base (16). Second ends (12b, 14b) of each of the beams (12, 14) are operatively coupled to rigid links (22, 24). The rigid links (22, 24) are in turn operatively coupled to a mass component that is free to move linearly in a path generally parallel to the longitudinal axes of the flexible beams (12, 14). Movement of the mass component (18) in response to vibration forces causes a twisting moment to be applied at the second end (12b, 14b) of each flexible beam (12, 14). This causes a uniform flexing of each of the flexible beams (12, 14). A piezoceramic material layer (44, 46) on each beam (12, 14) generates electrical signals in response to the flexing motion of the beam (12, 14).

IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2007-06-13
Granted: 2012-02-16
Abstract: Method for efficient inversion of controlled-source electromagnetic survey data to obtain a resistivity model of the subsurface of the survey area. The method extracts the dimensions and location of sub-surface structures as they may be revealed by existing seismic or other available high resolution survey data from the subsurface area (33). This structure geometry information is used to construct a discretization (grid, or mesh) for the inversion computation (34) that is different from the mesh used for the forward modeling calculations (32) in that (a) it has fewer and hence larger cells; and (b) the cells honor the assumed structural information. The inversion need only extract resistivity information (35), the geometry of the resistive structures being specified by the inversion mesh.
