20090025052 | Method and Apparatus for Controlling the Bandwidth of SDV Programming Supplied to an Edge Device in a n SDV System - A switched digital video (SDV) system is provided that includes an SDV manager for coordinating SDV sessions requested by subscriber terminals associated with a service group. An input is provided for receiving content to be broadcast during the SDV sessions. At least one edge device is provided for receiving transport streams that include SDV programming provided by the input and for transmitting each transport stream over an access network to at least one of the subscriber terminals on one of a plurality of SDV channels. The SDV manager is configured to (i) monitor bandwidth used by the edge device to provide the SDV programming to the service group and (ii) cause a bit rate of at least one SDV program supplied to the edge device to be adjusted based on the monitored bandwidth usage. | 01-22-2009 |
20090031341 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING THE NUMBER OF CONTROL MESSAGES TRANSMITTED BY A SET TOP TERMINAL IN AN SDV SYSTEM - A method is provided by which a subscriber accesses an SDV channel using a set top terminal. The method begins when the set top terminal receives a user request to tune to a first SDV channel. An active services list is also received over an access network. The active services list includes an entry for each currently available SDV program and a time-to-live (TTL) associated therewith. Tuning information is identified for the first SDV channel from its entry in the active services list. The set top terminal tunes to the first SDV channel using the identified tuning information. The channel change information associated with the user request is locally stored in set top terminal for transmission over the access network at a later time. | 01-29-2009 |

20140021468 | DEVICE WITH LIGHT-RESPONSIVE LAYERS - An electrical device with light-responsive layers is disclosed. One or more electrically conducting stripes, each insulated from each other, are deposited on a smooth surface of a substrate. Then metal oxide layers, separated by a composite diffusion layer, are deposited. On top of the topmost metal oxide layer another set of elongated conductive strips are disposed in contact with the topmost metal oxide layer such that junctions are formed wherever the top and bottom conducting stripes cross. The resulting device is light responsive only when a certain sign of bias voltage is applied and may be used as a photodetector. An advantage that may be realized in the practice of some disclosed embodiments of the device is that this device may be formed without the use of conventional patterning, thereby significantly reducing manufacturing difficulty. | 01-23-2014 |

20140026654 | Interferometric Differential Gradiometer Apparatus and Method - A differential gradient of gravity is directly measured from the interferometric combination of two light beams which reflect from pairs of three freefalling test masses. Optical path lengths of two beam arms change relative to one another because of differential gradient of gravity effects the test masses differently simultaneous freefall. The relatively large background of gravity and the gradient of gravity are eliminated from the measurement while simultaneously achieving a high level of common mode rejection of other spurious influences. | 01-30-2014 |
20140026655 | Test Mass and Method for Interferometric Gravity Characteristic Measurement - A test mass used for light beam interferometric gravity characteristic measurement has a center of mass located equidistant and colinear with optical center points of two oppositely reflecting retroreflectors. Rotation of the test mass about its center of mass during freefall changes the path length of the oppositely reflected light beams by equal amounts, thereby achieving common mode cancellation of the effects of test mass rotation when the two reflected light beams are interferometrically combined. | 01-30-2014 |
20140260605 | Polarized Beam, Matched Coincident Beam Path, Interferometric Gradiometer Apparatus and Method - A gravity gradient is measured interferometrically from two polarized light beams having mutually different polarization planes which reflect from opposite surfaces of two freefalling test masses. The two polarized light beams project along matched coincident beam paths and divert from the coincident paths to interact with the freefalling test masses. An enhanced level of common mode rejection of adverse influences arises from traversing the coincident beam paths. | 09-18-2014 |
20140268329 | Polarized Beam Director and Method - Incident differently-polarized light beams are separately directed and combined by one or two corner cube structures, each having one or two walls formed as a beam splitter. One incident light beam is passed, while the other incident light beam is reflected. | 09-18-2014 |
20140318239 | Interferometric Gravimeter Apparatus and Method - A gravity value is measured using two light beams which each reflect from both a freefall test mass and a stationary reference test mass which is inertially supported by a long period isolation device. The optical path lengths of the light beams change equally and oppositely in response to gravity and equally in response to disturbances, resulting in cancellation of the undesirable effects of the disturbances by common mode rejection and in a desirable increase in the number of gravity induced measurement fringes, when the two light beams are combined interferometrically. | 10-30-2014 |
20150177410 | Gradiometer and Method of Changing an Optical Path Length to Directly Obtain a Value of a Gradient of Gravity - A gradient of gravity is defined by a change in the optical path length required to maintain equality in optical path lengths of two beam arms which direct light beams to impinge upon and reflect from two freefalling test masses. | 06-25-2015 |
