  • Publication number: 20220271841
    Abstract: An optical transceiver may include an optical transmitter and an optical receiver. The optical transmitter and receiver may each include a grid including one or more lanes spaced apart. Each lane may correspond to a predetermined optical signal, or wavelength. The optical transmitter may include one or more sets of lasers to output one or more optical signals corresponding to the grid. Each set of laser may output a set of optical signals. Each set of lasers and, therefore, each set of optical signals may have a different passband. For example, the multiplexing and/or demultiplexing architecture may have a wide passband for the first set of optical signals and a narrow passband for the second set of optical signals. The narrow passband may be determined based on the space between two wider passbands.

  • Patent number: 11391128
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for producing heavy oil by generating solvents in situ in the reservoir, an electric heating device is used to heat up the crude oil in the reservoir near the wellbore to the target temperature. Chemical reaction additives are injected into the heating section to meet the preset reaction conditions for the high temperature thermal cracking and aquathermolysis of crude oil, so as to generate light hydrocarbon components and gases. Under the effect of heat and gravity, the light hydrocarbon components and gases rise to the steam chamber. The light hydrocarbons and some gases that move to the vapor-liquid interface of the steam chamber are dissolved in the crude oil to reduce the viscosity of crude oil and increase the production rate of crude oil.

  • Patent number: 11366842
    Abstract: A service monitoring system (SMS) transforms machine data from a monitored information technology (IT) environment into meaningful key performance indicators (KPIs) that each represents some measure of a service implemented by the environment on an ongoing basis. An overall health score for the service is determined from the KPIs and a prediction is made for a future health score. Data regarding a particular KPI and other KPIs is transformed to predicted future values for the particular KPI over a prediction window. Additionally, predicted future KPI scores may be used to determine a KPI impact score reflecting some measure of the degree to which the KPI, its related components, or processing related thereto, can influence the actual future health score. The KPI impact scores condition or direct the future operation of one or more SMS processes.
