Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080234855ENHANCED REMOTE JOG HANDLE - A system for controlling a machine tool is provided. The system includes a user input device deflectable from a neutral position and a controller configured to receive information corresponding to an amount of deflection of the user input device from the neutral position and to output a control signal to control a movement of the machine tool in an axis of movement at a rate corresponding to the amount of deflection of the user input device from the neutral position. A machine is provided, including a work tool movable along an axis of movement and a control system including a user input device deflectable from a neutral position and a controller configured to receive information corresponding to an amount of deflection of the user input device from the neutral position and to output a control signal to control a movement of the work tool in an axis of movement at a rate corresponding to the amount of deflection of the user input device from the neutral position.09-25-2008

20100333132METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR INDEXING ON-DEMAND VIDEO CONTENT IN A CABLE SYSTEM - In one embodiment, an index is created by a first user for a specified video program that is applied when a second user request viewing the specified video program. The index is typically embodied by a file, which identifies one or more content segments of the video program that are not presented to the viewing user. The viewing user selects the program for viewing, typically using a video on-demand service offered by a cable service provider, and potentially indicates the index file to be applied when viewing the program. The cable service provider streams the video program to the user, but excises the one or more content segments identified in the index file, thus providing a customized viewing experience to the viewing user.12-30-2010

20110060572DYNAMIC SUBSURFACE ENGINEERING - An example system includes interconnected modeling modules that share knowledge to create a unified earth model dynamically representing a subsurface site. The system models and may simulate subsurface operations associated with, for example: hydrocarbon production and stimulation, natural gas storage, carbon capture and storage, aquifer maintenance, geothermal energy production, and in-situ leachable ore processing. The system integrates a reporting module, and also an economic module to evaluate cost versus benefit of each subsurface operation. A related example method for performing subsurface engineering includes generating a model of a subsurface site including a geological horizon, obtaining an offset relative to the geological horizon, and locating an operation based on the offset. When field data update the model in real time, positions of 3D objects and 3D surfaces are dynamically updated in the model, including the positions of the modeled operations.03-10-2011

20100097070METHOD FOR PERFORMING A SHIELD INTEGRITY TEST AND FOR ISOLATING TROUBLE IN THE SHIELD USING GRAPHICAL ANALYSIS - A method for evaluating the integrity of a cable shield utilizing wideband noise-to-ground measurements is provided. Upon determining that trouble with the cable shield exists, a method s is provided to isolate the location of the trouble with the cable shield. The method utilizes access locations along the cable and therefore does not require opening of the cable shield to isolate the trouble in the shield.04-22-2010
20100271039APPARATUS FOR DETECTING IMBALANCES IN A PAIRED LINE - A device for measuring and isolating noise-creating imbalances in a paired telecommunications line has an internal circuit. The internal circuit includes a pulse generator. Pulses provided by the pulse generator are applied to an interface which includes balanced pathways to the conductors. The pulses are applied simplex (longitudinally) to the pair of conductors. Upon encountering a fault in the pair, a reflected metallic voltage signal is received by the interface. The reflected metallic voltage signal is sampled by an analog-to-digital converter. Data relating to the sampled signal is displayed for detection and location of faults on the pair.10-28-2010

20090176477SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BENCHMARKING LOCATION DETERMINING SYSTEMS - Systems, methods, and software are described for benchmarking the location determination capabilities of a wireless communications network. A mobile communications device is configured to receive data identifying a reference location for the device. A communications network, communicatively coupled with the mobile communications device, calculates a computed location for the device using an alternative location determination technique. The reference location and computed location may be determined for any number of additional devices, as well. The accuracy and reliability of a system may then be assessed by comparing one or more computed locations with associated reference locations. The latency attributable to the calculation of one or more computed locations may also be determined.07-09-2009
20100261470EMBEDDED WIRELESS BENCHMARKING SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and methods for measuring the performance of a provider of communications service are described. A plurality of mobile communications devices measure average power received, signal to noise ratio, voice quality, blocked and dropped calls, or any combinations of such measurements. The device may also receive a set of data identifying the location of the device. The device may transmit one or more communications signals to a server computer system with such measurements and location data. The measurements and location data may be stored in a database, and new data may be created and transmitted illustrating a subset of the measurements and location data.10-14-2010
