Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080276294LEGAL INTERCEPT OF COMMUNICATION TRAFFIC PARTICULARLY USEFUL IN A MOBILE ENVIRONMENT - Methods, structures, and systems are disclosed for implementing legal intercept of data which provide real-time correlation of broadband user information to network addresses (or other identifiers) across multiple and different authentication systems and user databases. In certain embodiments, an intercept coordinator module interacts with each authentication system to determine real-time a target address for a target user device, which it then uses to update mediation devices, external databases, etc., involved in performing a lawful intercept under the CALEA process. Probes are not required within the network to perform authentication system captures. A modular interface system provides support for existing CALEA equipment, and support for implementing additional interface modules for new or updated CALEA equipment. Exemplary intercept coordinator modules may communicate with multiple AAA systems, in multiple different sub-nets or networks, including geographically distant networks, and provides for pooling of common CALEA equipment resources for use in multiple networks simultaneously.11-06-2008

20110098929SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING SURFACE ELECTROMAGNETIC SURVEYS - A technique provides a methodology for improving surveys of subterranean regions. The methodology comprises estimating macro anisotropy and an intrinsic or micro anisotropy of an overburden. A surface electromagnetic survey is conducted, and the data from the survey is inverted based on or including information gained from estimating the macro anisotropy and/or intrinsic anisotropy. A processor system can be used to conduct the inversion with the adjustments for anisotropy to improve the information provided by the survey.04-28-2011

20090206946Apparatus and method for reducing propagation delay in a conductor - An apparatus and method is provided that reduces the propagation delay in a conductor carrying an electrical signal from a first area of a circuit to a second area of the circuit. The conductor is fabricated to include a first conductor extending from the first area to the second area. The conductor also includes a second conductor extending substantially parallel and along the first conductor and electrically connected to the first conductor. A third and additional conductors may also be used which extend substantially parallel and along the first conductor and are electrically connected to the first conductor. The additional second conductor (and any additional conductors) reduces the capacitance of the conductor thereby reducing the propagation delay in the conductor (increasing the speed of the signal). The additional conductor(s) effectively “shield” the first conductor from some capacitance that the first conductor would normally “see” without the use of such additional conductors.08-20-2009
