| 20110127036 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR A DOWNHOLE GAS GENERATOR - A downhole steam generation apparatus and method of use are provided. The apparatus may include an injection section, a combustion section, and an evaporation section. The injection section may include a housing, injector elements, and injector plate. The combustion section may include a liner having channels disposed therethrough. The evaporation section may include conduits in fluid communication with the channels and the combustion chamber, and a nozzle operable to inject a fluid from the channels to the combustion chamber in droplet form. A method of use may include supplying fuel, oxidant, and fluid to the apparatus; combusting fuel and oxidant in a chamber while flowing the fluid through a plurality of channels disposed through a liner, thereby heating the fluid and cooling the liner; and injecting droplets of the heated fluid into the chamber and evaporating the droplets by combustion of the fuel and the oxidant to produce steam. | 06-02-2011 |

| 20140023119 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING PAIR OF ORTHOGONAL SETS WITH WIDE RANGE OF SPREADING FACTORS - A method of generating a pair of orthogonal sets with a spreading factor N for a direct sequence spread spectrum communication system, includes selecting a two-level autocorrelation sequence of a period of N−1, the two-level autocorrelation sequence including elements, each of which includes a value of 1 or 0, and obtaining binary sequences based on the two-level autocorrelation sequence. The method further includes obtaining quasi-orthogonal sets based on the two-level autocorrelation sequence and the binary sequences, and generating the pair of the orthogonal sets based on the quasi-orthogonal sets. | 01-23-2014 |
| 20140056331 | TRAINING SEQUENCES AND CHANNEL ESTIMATION METHOD FOR SPREAD SPECTRUM BASED SYSTEMS - A method of a transmitter, includes multiplying a data sequence by a first code, and multiplying a training sequence by a second code that is orthogonal to the first code. The method further includes adding the multiplied data and training sequences, and transmitting, to a receiver, the added data and training sequences. | 02-27-2014 |
| 20140198830 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TIMING SYNCHRONIZATION AT SUB-SAMPLED RATE FOR SUB-SAMPLED WIDEBAND SYSTEMS - A method of timing synchronization in sub-band based ultra wideband systems, includes obtaining a coarse estimate of an offset in a time domain at a sub-sampled rate, and obtaining a fine estimate of the offset in an analog domain. The method further includes correcting a timing in the analog domain by transforming the fine estimate to an equivalent phase for the correcting. | 07-17-2014 |
| 20140301431 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CHANNEL MITIGATION USING PER-TONE SPREADING IN SINGLE CARRIER BLOCK TRANSMISSIONS - A method of per-tone spreading in single carrier block transmissions, includes generating a block of modulated symbols, and performing the per-tone spreading on the block of the modulated symbols. Also, a transmitter configured to perform per-tone spreading in single carrier block transmissions, includes a modulator configured to generate a block of modulated symbols, and a spreader configured to perform the per-tone spreading on the block of the modulated symbols. | 10-09-2014 |
