Title: Over-sampling digital processing path that emulates nyquist rate(non oversampling) audio conversion
Inventor: DYLAN A HESTER
IPC: H03H17/06
Filed: 2016-06-21
Abstract: The behavior of a NOS DAC and an analog filter may be emulated by electronic components of an integrated circuit (IC) by upsampling data and applying a digital filter to the upsampled data. For example, the IC may include a zero-order-hold circuit that upsamples data from a first input sample rate to a second, higher input rate. The upsampled data may be passed to an Asynchronous Sample Rate Converter (ASRC) that performs further upsampling (e.g., from 8*Fs - 64*Fs). The upsampled data may be passed to a digital low pass filter. The digital low pass filter may emulate, for example, a response of a fifth order Butterworth analog filter to mimic the effect of analog processing. The IC may integrate the upsampling circuit, the low pass digital filter, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and an amplifier to provide an audio solution for playing high-fidelity music in a mobile device.

Title: Cartesian loop circuits, transmitters, devices, and related methods
Inventor: NIR CORSE
IPC: H04L27/36
Filed: 2018-11-22
Abstract: Cartesian feedback loop circuit (transmitter) comprising adjustable (baseband) reference signal amplifier 412-432 coupled to a forward path 404 to provide an output (e.g antenna 402 via Power Amplifier 442), and coupled to the forward path output a feedback path 408. The forward path includes an up mixer 418, 438 to up-mix forward (baseband) path signal to a radio frequency (RF). Feedback path 408 includes down-mixer 460, 462 to down convert RF signal to a baseband reference signal, which is further inputted to the forward path (e,g summer 414,434). A gain controller 470 performs power control at a low power by controlling reference signal amplifier gain and to perform power control at a high power by controlling down-mixer gain. Alternatively at high power, the feedback path gain is controlled using for example a variable attenuator 466. At the high power, the controller may perform power control by further controlling the gain of the up-mixer and may further or alternatively activate Cartesian loop phase training, whilst the training is deactivated (not required) for low power (figure 3). A method of use is included (figure 2). The desired power may be preset into discrete indexes (e.g 0dBm, 5dBm to 30dbm) and compared against a threshold value (17.5dBm), those above the threshold corresponding to high power operation and below to a low power. Invention is suited to Terrestrial Trunked Radio Systems (TETRA), narrow bandwidth systems.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for laying out a minefield suitable for fluidized mining of coal resources. A main shaft (1) and a ventilation shaft (2) are respectively provided in a minefield region, with the bottom of the main shaft being located in a shallow coal seam zone, and the bottom of the ventilating shaft being located in a deep coal seam zone; horizontal main tunnels (3) are respectively arranged along two boundaries of the minefield in the direction in which a coal seam runs, and inclined main tunnels (4) are respectively provided along two boundaries of the minefield in the direction of inclination of the coal seam; and connecting tunnels (5) in communication with the horizontal main tunnels (3) are laid inside the minefield. When mining coal, an unmanned automatic coal mining machine (14) transforms coal resources into a fluidized energy product and/or electric energy, and the fluidized energy product and/or the electric energy are/is delivered to the ground through an energy delivery pipeline (8) laid in the various tunnels and the main shaft. By means of the minefield layout, the number of mine tunnels for the elevation and transport of coal, drainage, ventilation and supplying power is reduced, so that the construction and maintenance costs of the mine tunnels are reduced. Furthermore, there are nearly no residual coal pillars left in the minefield, so that the mining yield is high.

Title: Clamping pipelines
Inventor: FLORENT MENET
IPC: F16L3/12
Filed: 2020-08-06
Abstract: A method and apparatus of fixing a clamp 22, for example and anchor clamp, around a pipeline 10 comprises supporting the pipe between curved clamp parts, namely a cradle 30 and shells 32, that are assembled in mutual opposition about the pipe while fabricating the clamp. By placing the pipe into the cradle and then bringing the shells into contact with the pipe, those opposed clamp parts are simultaneously in contact with the pipe. Initially, a gap 50 is maintained at an interface between the clamp parts. A full penetration weld 52 is then formed in the gap. As the weld cools and shrinks, the clamp parts are drawn together, to a mutual spacing narrower than the original gap, to compress the pipe between them. The clamp is suitable for attaching the pipe to a structure such as the frame (16, figure 1) of a subsea pipeline accessory (12), for example a valve in fluid communication with the pipe.

Title: Clutch driven aircraft electric taxi system and method
Inventor: ISAIAH W COX
IPC: F16D13/00
Filed: 2015-11-05
Abstract: A clutch driven aircraft electric taxi system is provided with a clutch assembly 24 designed to be automatically selectively engaged or disengaged as required to drive an aircraft autonomously during ground operations. The clutch assembly 24 is mounted integrally with other electric taxi system components completely within an aircraft landing gear wheel 10 and may be designed with one way overrunning or selectable clutch engagement capability in one or both rotational directions, preferably using an arrangement of ratcheting struts and clutch elements. The clutch assembly may be positioned between a drive system 22 and a wheel section 26. The clutch assembly may automatically disengage in response to predetermined defined conditions or operating parameters. A failsafe overrunning capability ensures that the clutch assembly will not engage taxi system drive components so that an aircraft’s wheel will not be driven during aircraft operation when safety considerations dictate that the aircraft electric taxi system should not be engaged.
