  • Publication number: 20230117321
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to deblending of sources in multi-source geophysical survey data, including marine or land-based data. Multiple sets of deblended receiver traces are generated by iteratively applying a coherency filter to estimated sets of deblended receiver traces and updating a residual until a termination condition is reached. In some embodiments, applying the coherency filter during a current iteration may include determining coefficients of the coherency filter based on estimated sets of deblended receiver traces from an immediately prior iteration. In further embodiments, applying the coherency filter may include applying a 3D projection filter, such as an fxy projection filter.

  • Publication number: 20230117329
    Abstract: Communication techniques are disclosed for a distributed computing system. The technique may be applied to an inline clearing and settlement messaging protocol whereby a matching engine may issue a transaction request (or settlement request) upon matching a proposed trade, identifying the parties and assets for the trade. A message gateway may validate and transmit the transaction request to a sequencer which sequences the transaction request into a time-accurate event stream so that transaction requests are distributed to relevant parties in chronological order. Each party may respond to the transaction request by simply checking its account to confirm availability of the relevant asset for the proposed trade and issuing a clearance response. The clearance responses form the basis for a transaction response that the message gateway sends to the matching engine to indicate success or failure of the inline clearing and settlement.

  • Publication number: 20230117339
    Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for an adaptive ray-launcher for an electromagnetic response simulator. An adaptive ray-launching process is used to shoot electromagnetic rays at targets in a simulated environment. Uniformly distributed sparse electromagnetic rays are launched at the targets and the angular ray densities relative to the targets are calculated. Several propagation paths that include multipath effects are considered to determine the angular ray densities. Based on the length of the propagation paths of sparse electromagnetic rays with multipath related to each target, denser electromagnetic rays can be launched. The denser electromagnetic rays enable the fidelity related to targets in a far-range to be similar to the fidelity of closer targets. Additionally, any sparse electromagnetics that cannot be detected by a sensor can be disregarded. In this manner, an efficient and accurate electromagnetic response model may be approximated.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating travel of an electric off-road vehicle on an uncharted off-road route are provided. A method includes relating the uncharted off-road route to be travelled by the electric off-road vehicle to map data of a geographic area including the uncharted off-road route. Using the map data, one or more geographic characteristics of the uncharted off-road route are determined. Using the one or more geographic characteristics of the uncharted off-road route and predetermined battery consumption data associated with the one or more geographic characteristics, an estimated battery consumption for the electric off-road vehicle to travel the uncharted off-road route is determined. The estimated battery consumption is communicated to an operator of the electric off-road vehicle.

    Abstract: A central unit (CU) transmits synchronization timing information for a multicast broadcast service (MBS) single frequency network (SFN) data transmission in a synchronous manner to multiple distributed units (DUs). The CU transmits the MBS SFN data transmission to the multiple DUs for synchronous transmission to one or more user equipments (UEs). A DU receives synchronization timing information for a MBS SFN data transmission in a synchronous manner with at least one additional DU. The DU transmits the MBS SFN data transmission with a timing based on the synchronization timing information.

    Abstract: A sliding cover for a liquid delivery device, such as a cap (100) for a pen injector (200), incorporates a set of sensors including an optical sensor (110) with an output which changes during uncapping or capping motions on passing of a plunger (220) of the pen injector. This output is used together with a position sensor (120) to determine the position of the plunger along a cylinder (210) of the liquid delivery device. By monitoring changes in the plunger position, the quantity of dosages delivered by the liquid delivery device can be determined, displayed, stored and/or transmitted to an external device for further data processing or storage. Preferred implementations of the invention employ optical sensors with a converging beam (115), and/or position sensors employing linear potentiometer strips (132).
