  • Publication number: 20240179579
    Abstract: The provisioning of wireless networks in rural environments still represents a significant issue for network operators or government regulators or authorities. This arises from a variety of factors including reduced densities of users, reduced infrastructure such as cellular network towers and increase distances coupled with seasonal variations such as inclement weather in the winter, leaves on trees during the summer etc. Embodiments of the invention allow for wireless networks and more particularly wireless devices within the wireless network to provide increased connectivity and performance within rural wireless networks whilst maintaining compliance with the applicable local, region and national requirements as defined in the applicable specifications.

  • Patent number: 11602653
    Abstract: A flame front in a gas pipeline is extinguished by introducing an extinguishing agent at an overpressure at an extinguishing zone of the pipeline. Using an overpressure provides a better and finer atomization of the extinguishing agent, and permits a greater amount of the extinguishing agent to be provided in the extinguishing zone per unit time. In addition, a sealing fluid is introduced at sealing zone of the pipeline. Gas flowing through the pipeline must flow through the sealing fluid in the sealing zone. Preferably, movement of a flame front from one side of the sealing zone to the other side of the sealing zone is prevented or reduced by the sealing fluid.

  • Publication number: 20220111566
    Abstract: A system and method for achieving a one component growable resin system includes a quantity of growable resin and a quantity of growth initiator. The quantity of growable resin is in a final solid state, and the quantity of growth initiator is in an inactive form. A usable initiator portion, that includes a plurality of resin molecules and is from the quantity of growth initiator, contacts a usable resin portion, from the quantity of growable resin. Being in an inactive form, the usable initiator portion is unable to cause resin growth by being physically inactive or by being physically separate from the usable resin portion. The usable initiator portion is activated to initiate a chemical reaction amongst the plurality of molecules. The chemical reaction results with growth in the usable resin portion by increasing the molecular weight of the usable resin portion.
