  • Gas turbine engine with dual compression rotor
    Patent number: 8726635
    Abstract: The present invention provides a gas turbine engine having a combustion chamber section substantially forward of an axial compressor section. An example embodiment uses a centrifugal compressor section behind the axial compressor section to help route compressed air exiting the axial compressor section forward to the combustion chamber section.

  • Modified range requests enabling bandwidth requests and state of health reporting
    Patent number: 8300657
    Abstract: A modified ranging request in a broadband communications system. The modified ranging request includes a header, a management message header attached to the header, a management message payload attached to the management message header, and a CRC attached to the management message payload. The management message header enables bandwidth requests to be made by subscriber equipment without contention. The management message header also includes state of health information on the status of a downstream transmission for enabling a central location to determine how to assign subscribers to queues in an adaptive modulation scheme.
