Abstract: An analog signal can be received. The analog signal can preserve native RF characteristics of a device RF signal received from a wireless device operating in a closed environment. An analog signature of the wireless device can be generated based on the native RF characteristics of the device RF signal. A digital signature of the wireless device can be generated based on information of network packets received from the wireless device. The analog signature and the digital signature can be correlated with characteristics of each known device of a plurality of known devices. The wireless device can be determined to be an unauthorized device based on correlating the analog signature and the digital signature with the characteristics of each known device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining a pressure in an annulus between an inner casing and an outer casing. An acoustic transducer is disposed within the casing at a selected depth within the inner casing and is configured to generate an acoustic pulse and receive a reflection of the acoustic pulse from the inner casing. A time of flight is measured of the acoustic pulse to the inner surface of the inner casing. An inner diameter of the inner casing is determined from the time of flight. The pressure in the annulus is determined from the inner diameter. A processor can be used to measure time and determine inner diameter and annulus pressure.

Abstract: A fiber optic system includes an enclosure and a mounting bracket that cooperate to define a mechanical coupling interface including a slide interface and a snap-fit interface. The slide interface allows the enclosure to mount to the bracket along a first dimension and retains the enclosure at the bracket along second and third dimensions that are transverse to the first dimension and transverse to each other. The snap-fit interface, once triggered, retains the enclosure at the bracket along the first dimension.

Abstract: A method for developing an enhancement model for low-quality visual data, the method comprising the steps of receiving one or more sections of higher-quality visual data; and training a hierarchical algorithm. The hierarchical algorithm is operable to increase the quality of one or more sections of lower-quality visual data so as to substantially reproduce the one or more sections of higher-quality visual data. The hierarchical algorithm is then outputted.
