| 20120014212 | CONTINUOUS COMPOSITE RELATIVELY ADJUSTED PULSE - The invention relates to continuously or near continuously acquiring seismic data where at least one pulse-type source is fired in a distinctive sequence to create a series of pulses and to create a continuous or near continuous rumble. In a preferred embodiment, a number of pulse-type seismic sources are arranged in an array and are fired in a distinctive loop of composite pulses where the returning wavefield is source separable based on the distinctive composite pulses. Firing the pulse-type sources creates an identifiable loop of identifiable composite pulses so that two or more marine seismic acquisition systems with pulse-type seismic sources can acquire seismic data concurrently, continuously or near continuously and the peak energy delivered into the water will be less, which will reduce the irritation of seismic data acquisition to marine life. | 01-19-2012 |
| 20120035853 | UNIQUE COMPOSITE RELATIVELY ADJUSTED PULSE - The invention relates to acquiring seismic data in either land or marine environments, but typically marine environments where a pulse-type source is fired in a distinctive composite pulse like a distinctive rumble. In a preferred embodiment, a number of pulse-type seismic sources, sometimes called an array, are fired in a distinctive composite pulse to be able to identify within the returning wavefield the energy resulting from the composite pulse. Firing the pulse-type sources creates an identifiable signature so that two or more marine seismic acquisition systems with source arrays can be acquiring seismic data concurrently and the peak energy delivered into the water will be less, which will reduce the irritation of seismic data acquisition to marine life. | 02-09-2012 |

| 20110012242 | LEAD FRAME BASED CERAMIC AIR CAVITY PACKAGE - A ceramic semiconductor package provides for being surface mounted on a printed circuit board or other mounting surface. A ceramic frame is directly attached to a lead frame to define a cavity in which the base of a semiconductor device is mounted to the portion of the lead frame exposed at the bottom of the cavity. Interface terminals of the semiconductor device are attached to electrical contacts on the ceramic frame inside the cavity. The ceramic package provides a hermetic insulated path through which the signals can be routed from the device to the external leads. Additionally, because the semiconductor device is directly attached to the lead frame, power dissipation, i.e., heat dissipation, is more effectively provided by this direct connection without intervening layers of ceramic or conductor. | 01-20-2011 |

Information used by the ADS-B system is extracted from the received reply transmissions and furnished to the ADS-B transceiver for broadcast over the ADS-B data link. | 02-16-2012 |

| 20080241359 | Method of making circuitized substrate with selected conductors having solder thereon - A method of making a circuitized substrate in which conductors are formed in such a manner that selected ones of the conductors include solder while others do not and are thus adapted for receiving a different form of connection (e.g., wire-bond) than the solder covered conductors. In one embodiment, the solder may be applied in molten form by immersing the substrate within a bath of the solder while in another the solder may be deposited using a screening procedure. | 10-02-2008 |
