A catalyst has a base catalyst layer containing platinum and barium as precious metal supported by alumina and an over catalyst layer containing platinum and rhodium as precious metal supported by zeolitr. The platinum and rhodium in the over catalyst layer activate NOx and HC so as to make them more reactive in terms of energy, and the barium in the base catalyst layer makes the platinum be more dispersive in the base catalyst layer. Under the existence of dispersive platinum, NOx in exhaust gas is decomposed and purified by reaction with reactive NO2 and partially oxidized HC generated in the over catalyst layer.

Exemplary systems and methods are directed to transmission of electromagnetic (EM) pulses in a downhole environment, which is located below a surface of a landform. A sequence of EM energy pulses is generated from a signal generator located at the surface of the landform. The energy pulses are reflected at a ring frequency by one or more downhole transducers. The reflected energy pulse is received at a receiver, which is located at the surface, during a predetermined time interval. The receiver detects the received energy pulses through a time domain or frequency domain technique. The detected ring frequency is correlated to a parameter or condition of the downhole environment.
