Method for producing doped regions on the rear face of a photovoltaic cell. A doping paste with a first type of conductivity is deposited on a rear face of a semiconductor-based substrate according to a pattern consistent with the desired distribution of regions doped with the first type of conductivity. Then, an oxide layer is deposited at least on the portions of the rear face of the substrate not covered with the doping paste. Finally, an annealing of the substrate diffuses the doping agents in the substrate and forms doped regions under the doping paste.

An advanced multiple-beam GPS receiving system is achieved that is capable of simultaneously tracking multiple GPS satellites independently, detecting multiple interference signals individually, and suppressing directional gain in the antenna pattern of each beam in the interference directions. The GPS receiving system can be used for both planar and non-planar receiving arrays, including arrays that are conformally applied to the surface of a platform such as an aircraft. The GPS receiver combines spatial filtering and acquisition code correlation for enhanced rejection of interfering sources. Enhanced gain in the direction of GPS satellites and the ability to shape the beam patterns to suppress gain in the direction of interfering sources make the GPS receiving system largely insensitive to interfering and jamming signals that plague conventional GPS receivers.

An on-demand security service ensures isolation of the service provider's customers where the customers share resources at the system, subsystem, and storage level. The security service is provided in a pre-production phase and in a post production phase. The pre-production phase takes place prior to boarding the customer. In the pre-production phase the resources to be protected are defined in a security guide, and using the security guide, physical segregation at the facility, network, and technical and delivery support levels is planned and then implemented. In the post production phase, on going activities are proactive and reactive. Proactive activities include maintaining physical segregation by reviewing and updating the security guide, and testing physical segregation by performing security audits and penetration tests. Observations and finding of the audits and penetration tests are resolved. Reactive activities include identifying isolation failures, coordinating appropriate actions, and resolving the isolation failure. The service may be embodied in a system and in a computer implemented process comprising a security guide file (SGF), a security guide application (SGA), a security implementation application (SIA), a security validation application (SVA), and an event coordination application (ECA).

A multi-grounded neutral electrical isolation system for a personal-communication-system cell site consists of two standard distribution transformers separated by a distance greater than the zone of influence corresponding to the maximum expected ground potential rise at the PCS cell site. The primary winding of the first transformer is connected to the utility's low-voltage distribution system and is grounded through the network's ground. The secondary winding is connected to the primary winding of the second transformer through a high-voltage non-shielded insulated conductor and the frames of the two transformers are kept electrically isolated. The secondary winding of the second transformer energizes the PCS cell site and shares its ground connection, which is also common to the adjacent high-voltage transmission tower. All neutrals are grounded through their respective grounding systems. The second transformer is selected with a basic-insulation-level rating sufficient to withstand the maximum ground potential rise expected to occur at the cell site as a result of a fault or a lightening discharge at the high-voltage transmission tower. By separating the two transformers by a distance at least equal to the zone of influence corresponding to such a GPR, the isolation of the distribution grid from the cell site is ensured. Moreover, the BIL rating of the transformers protects the transmission grid from a sudden potential rise due to a fault in the transformer's insulation.
