  • Patent number: 12237920
    Abstract: A preamble of physical layer (PHY) data unit includes a first legacy portion and a first non-legacy portion that follows the first legacy portion. The first non-legacy portion includes i) a first orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol that immediately follows the first legacy portion and that is modulated using binary phase shift keying (BPSK), and ii) a second OFDM symbol that immediately follows the first OFDM symbol and that is modulated using BPSK modulation rotated by 90 degrees (Q-BPSK). The modulation of the first and second OFDM symbols indicates to a receiver device that conforms to a first communication protocol that the data unit conforms to the first communication protocol. The first OFDM symbol being modulated using BPSK modulation causes a receiver device that conforms to a second communication protocol to determine that the PHY data unit conforms to a third communication protocol.

  • Patent number: 7267072
    Abstract: Submarines with air-charged cargo holds are provided. The pressurize hull of a traditional submarine's cargo hold is replaced by non-pressurized hull, which lowers costs for transporting dry cargo and solves strength and seal problems raised when providing large openings for hatches. The dive depth of the air-charged cargo submarines is not large, so the pressure and volume of the charged air in the cargo hold are limited. This allows problems associated with ensuring the safety of the crew and properly operating the submarine to be easily solved.

  • Publication number: 20030233982
    Abstract: To raise fly larvae (FL) as space food besides crop plants for waste recycling and food production. NASA has been cultivating crop plants as the space food. The feedstuff nutrition from both crew's waste (faces and urine) and crop's waste can be recycled by FL to achieve the goal of efficiently producing nourishing food. The water and nutrition leaving in the dreg after raising HFL can be recycled and fertilized the crop plant again. Raising HFL combining with crop plants could develop a self circular closed system from most wastes to enable human to live and work in space-independent of earth-provided logistics in long duration mission.
