Filed: 2008-07-29
Abstract: Un mode de réalisation exemplaire de l'invention inclut un procédé et un appareil pour effectuer des mesures de dispersion et de perte dans un tronçon de fibre en présence ou en l'absence d'éléments de compensation de dispersion (DCE). La technique peut être utilisée de manière à configurer une liaison de réseau en accédant à un signal optique sur un côté entrée d'un point de connexion d'un DCE en couplant un côté sortie d'un tronçon de fibre sur le côté entrée du DCE à un amplificateur optique à un point de connexion sur un côté sortie du DCE. La technique peut inclure une détermination de la dispersion chromatique du tronçon de fibre sur la base du signal optique et le rapport des informations associées à la dispersion chromatique. En conséquence, la technique peut être utilisée, par exemple, au cours de l'installation initiale d'un système lorsque les signaux de données utilisateur et le DCE ne sont pas présents, ainsi qu'une fois que le réseau a commencé à acheminer un trafic utilisateur et une fois qu'un DCE a été installé.

Title: Cbm horizontal hydrostatic bailer
Inventor: ADKINS GREGORY ALBERT
IPC: E21B37/00
Filed: 2009-01-21
Abstract: The CBM (Horizontal Hydrostatic Bailer) is used to clean out wells that are drilled horizontally into The ground in the oil and gas industry. This invention is different than other tools because it has a plunger in the bottom that brakes a surge disc, that enables you to utilize the well fluid to create it's own vacuum. The tool is attached to the bottom of the tubing string which allows the tubing to be run in the hole dry. When you reach the bottom of the well, the plunger is activated by the tubing weight when it hits bottom and allows the plunger to travel up inside the tool and break the surge disc. This allows the fluid in the well to enter the inside of the tubing creating a vacuums. The vacuum action sucks all the debris out of the bottom of the well.

Abstract: The Multi-Link Aircraft Cellular System makes use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques to improve the call handling capacity of the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network. These additional techniques can include polarization domain and ground antenna pattern shaping (in azimuth, in elevation, or in both planes). Further, if code domain separation is added, dramatic increases in capacity are realized. Thus, the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network can increase its capacity on a per aircraft basis by sharing its traffic load among more than one cell or sector and by making use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques.
