Patent number: 7090033Abstract: A valve assembly connects into a drill string for opening and closing at least one inner passage within the drill string of the drill string. The valve assembly includes an annular valve assembly carried in an annular passage that moves between the open and closed positions in response to downward fluid pressure from the surface through the annular passage. The valve assembly also includes an inner valve assembly carried in an inner passage of the drill string. The inner valve assembly is a two-way valve that is actuated between open and closed positions by pressure pulses from the surface through the inner passage. The valve assembly can be used within coiled tubing.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2003Date of Patent: August 15, 2006Assignee: Vetco Gray Inc.Inventors: Kwong-Onn C. Chan, Behrooz Movaffagh, Xiaoping He

Patent number: 7017682Abstract: A valve assembly connects into a drill string for opening and closing a passage within the drill string. The valve assembly has an inner valve member for opening and closing an inner passage of the drill string. The valve member moves between the open and closed positions in response to axial movement of the drill string. Lifting the drill string causes the upper portion to move upward relative to the lower portion, bringing along with it the valve member, while the valve sleeve remains stationary with the lower portion, opening the valve. The valve assembly can include an annular valve assembly for opening and closing an annular passage located around the inner passage. The annular valve assembly is opened and closed by increasing the pressure in the annular passage above the annular valve assembly.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2003Date of Patent: March 28, 2006Assignee: Vetco Gray Inc.Inventors: Kwong-Onn C. Chan, Behrooz Movaffagh, Xiaoping He, Loren Pierre Boisvert

Patent number: 6980800Abstract: Two types of contention channels are used to accommodate broadband packet data in a satellite communication network. A first contention channel is used by unsynchronized user terminals to access the system and request a traffic channel. The first contention channel is of a sufficient duration to accommodate a RACH message, as well as the timing uncertainty between user terminals within a given spot beam. A second contention channel is shorter in duration than the first contention channel, and is narrowband, so that more than one second contention channel may be transmitted within the bandwidth of the broadband traffic channels. The second contention channels are used by synchronized user terminals for transmitting packet RACH, or PRACH, messages. The more efficient nature of the PRACH channels accommodates the increased overhead associated with bursty packet data, without the capacity cost of the longer duration RACH channel.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2002Date of Patent: December 27, 2005Assignee: Hughes Network SystemsInventors: Anthony Noerpel, Channasandra Ravishankar, Xiaoping He, Abheek Saha

Patent number: 6289482Abstract: An approach for error flow control in a communications system involves receiving a plurality of frames of data; determining in said plurality of frames of data, two or more contiguous defective frames of data, the two or more contiguous defective frames of data being followed by at least one frame of data in said plurality of frames that is not defective; forming a group reject message indicative of a range of the two or more contiguous defective frames; transmitting the group reject message; and receiving replacement frames, the replacement frames corresponding to the two or more contiguous defective frames, wherein said at least one frame that is not defective is not received again in response to the group reject message.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 1998Date of Patent: September 11, 2001Assignee: Hughes Electronics CorporationInventors: Chandra Joshi, Anthony Noerpel, Xiaoping He, Prabir Datta

Patent number: 6282178Abstract: An approach for selecting an asynchronous paging interval involves selecting a set of possible paging schemes for one wireless system; selecting a paging interval for another wireless system that is asynchronous with the paging schemes selected for the one wireless system; determining, after some number of paging repetitions, the probability of collision between a first paging channel in the one wireless system, and a second paging channel in the other wireless system; reselecting the paging interval for the other wireless system, asynchronous with the paging schemes selected for the one wireless system, and repeating the determining of the probability, until after some number of page repetitions, the probability reaches a prescribed minimum; and reselecting the paging interval for the other wireless system, asynchronous with the paging schemes selected for the one wireless system, and repeating the determining of the probability, until the number of paging repetitions needed to reach the prescribed minimum iType: GrantFiled: July 13, 1998Date of Patent: August 28, 2001Assignee: Hughes Electronics Corp.Inventors: Anthony Noerpel, Xiaoping He
