Title: Spatial modulation methods for MIMO which use power allocation or transmit waveforms exhibiting a peaky auto-correlation to aid antenna identification
Inventor: HAAS HARALD
IPC: H04B7/04
Filed: 2010-02-23
Abstract: Spatial modulation requires a plurality of transmit antennae and may be applied in a MIMO or MISO system. Spatial modulation selects which antenna to transmit on the basis of the information to be transmitted; i.e. the transmit antenna selection encodes information. This application is concerned with methods of deducing, at the receiver, the transmit antenna which was used and thus the data which was transmitted. A first embodiment achieves this by allocating power differently to the different transmit antennae. A second embodiment uses transmit waveforms which exploit differences in channel "signatures". For example, if the transmit waveform is a Dirac-delta function or any similar waveform with a peaky auto-correlation then the receiver can use differences in propagation delay to locate the correct transmit antenna (see Fig 12).

Title: De-stratification using venturi pump array
Inventor: ROBERTS PETER MILES
IPC: C02F1/00
Filed: 2010-03-16
Abstract: Water is pumped between depths in a body of water e.g. ocean, to reduce the surface temperature and / or to redistribute carbon dioxide from relatively shallow to relatively deep water, to increase the rate of absorption from the atmosphere. The pump system comprises a series of modules, each having an array of pipes 12 in a spaced side by side arrangement. A venturi is defined between adjacent pipes, and the pipes have a series of outlet holes 22 along their length, so that current flow across the module draws water through the pipes. Inlet holes 24 are positioned at a different depth so that water is drawn from a first depth 34 to a second depth 36. A further module may move water in the opposite direction (see figure 3).

Title: Characterising hydrocarbon fluids using mid infrared absorption
Inventor: MALCOLM GRAEME PETER ALEXANDER
IPC: G01N21/35
Filed: 2012-11-09
Abstract: A method and system for characterising a hydrocarbon fluid 2 is described. The method involves exposing the hydrocarbon fluid to an output field 6 generated by a mid-infrared laser source 4. The wavelength of the output field is then scanned and the field is scanned over an area of the hydrocarbon fluid so allowing for the absorption signal 9 of the output field by the hydrocarbon fluid to be measured. From this measured data a spectral profile or fingerprint of the hydrocarbon fluid can be produced. This spectral profile or fingerprint of the hydrocarbon fluid can then be used to identify the source of the hydrocarbon fluid or monitor for the presence of contaminants or foreign fluids entering the hydrocarbon fluid. The method and system finds particular application for real time monitoring of a hydrocarbon production flow.
