Publication number: 20250190222Abstract: A system and a method for observable configuration delivery include, for each target tenants of a plurality of target tenants, determining a corresponding last unicast configuration change request (CCR) received; determining a number of previously unbooked unicast CCRs for the plurality of target tenants, a previously unbooked unicast CCR being a last unicast CCR received that has not been booked into a distribution to be submitted to a headend service (HES); booking the previously unbooked unicast CCRs into one or more distributions based on the number of the previously unbooked unicast CCRs and a configured capacity of each distribution of the one or more distributions; and sending the one or more distributions to the HES for sending the booked previously unbooked unicast CCRs to the plurality of target tenants.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2024Publication date: June 12, 2025Inventors: Elliott Buhr Edwards, Robert Wayne Simon, Andrew John Keats, Jason Wayne Estes

Patent number: 7724608Abstract: A system and method is provided that uses signals from a plurality of seismic sensors to define an acoustic lens for subsurface imaging. More specifically signals provided by an array of sensors/geophones may be utilized to form an acoustic lens that can be focused on a subterranean point by properly adjusting the signals recorded at each sensor prior to summation of those signals. To form such an acoustic lens, each of the seismic sensors is moved onto a hypothetical acoustic lens surface (e.g., spherical surface) having a focal point located on the subterranean point of interest in order to calculate a time delay for each signal. Once the signals for each sensor is time-delayed, information in the time-delayed signals, which is received from the point of interest, may be temporally aligned. Accordingly, the time delayed signals may be combined to generate reflection information for the point of interest.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2008Date of Patent: May 25, 2010Inventor: Wayne Simon

Publication number: 20070029132Abstract: A tailpipe for use with a vehicle moveable in a forward direction upon a support surface and adapted to be oriented substantially perpendicular to the support surface. The tailpipe includes a windward surface facing in the forward direction and a leeward surface facing opposite the forward direction. The tailpipe also includes a tubular body defining a main exhaust gas flow passageway adapted to direct an exhaust gas flow from a proximal end to a distal end of the tubular body and a plurality of exhaust ports. The exhaust ports are disposed between the proximal end and the distal end of the tubular body and pass through the leeward surface for permitting at least a portion of the exhaust gas flow, when present in the tubular body, to exit the tubular body through the plurality of exhaust ports.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2005Publication date: February 8, 2007Inventors: Robert Feight, Wayne Simons, Daniel Kieffer

Patent number: 6610633Abstract: A lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO3) substrate on which thin films of layered perovskite copper oxide superconductors are formed. Lanthanum aluminate, with a pseudo-cubic perovskite crystal structure, has a crystal structure and lattice constant that closely match the crystal structures and lattice constants of the layered perovskite superconductors. Therefore, it promotes epitaxial film growth of the superconductors, with the crystals being oriented in the proper direction for good superconductive electrical properties, such as a high critical current density. In addition, LaAlO3 has good high frequency properties, such as a low loss tangent and low dielectric constant at superconductive temperatures. Finally, lanthanum aluminate does not significantly interact with the superconductors. Lanthanum aluminate can also be used to form thin insulating films between the superconductor layers, which allows for the fabrication of a wide variety of superconductor circuit elements.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 1995Date of Patent: August 26, 2003Assignee: TRW Inc.Inventors: Randy Wayne Simon, Christine Elizabeth Platt, Alfred Euinam Lee, Gregory Steven Lee
