  • Publication number: 20240049012
    Abstract: A communications system may include user equipment (UE) devices, communications satellites, gateways, a satellite communications (satcom) network, and network performance monitoring devices. The monitoring devices may generate forward link signal information associated with forward link signals received from the satellites and may generate reverse link packets transmitted to the gateways via the satellites. The monitoring devices and the gateways may generate reverse link signal information associated with the reverse link packets. The satcom network may identify differences between the first and second reverse link signal information or between the forward link signal information and predicted forward link signal information for the monitoring devices. When the differences exceed a threshold value, the satcom network may generate and transmit error information used to diagnose, debug, and/or repair the potential errors in the constellation or gateways.

  • Patent number: 10300720
    Abstract: A container assembly may include a regulated tank to contain a fluid, a free tank to replenish the fluid in the regulated tank, a first expandable member between an interior of the regulated tank and ambient atmospheric pressure, a second expandable member between the interior of the regulated tank and an inflation port, a first valve to selectively connect the free tank to the regulated tank based upon a pressure differential between the interior of the regulated tank and an interior of the free tank and a second valve actuatable between an open state permitting an interior of the free tank to be pressurized and a closed state. The second valve is actuatable between the open state and the closed state based upon a position of the first expandable member.

  • Patent number: 10232629
    Abstract: In some examples, a container assembly includes a first body to supply a printing composition, the first body comprising a first port, and the container assembly includes a second body to store a reserve printing composition, the second body comprising a second port. An interconnect has a storage position to fluidically isolate the first body from the second body, and a use position to fluidically connect the first body to the second body to allow the reserve printing composition to flow from the second body to the first body to replenish the printing composition in the first body and to allow air in the first body displaced by the reserve printing composition to flow from the first body to the second body. The interconnect in the storage position has a first orientation to fluidically isolate the first port from the second port, and the interconnect in the use position has a second orientation rotated with respect to the first orientation to fluidically connect the first port to the second port.
