Periodic calibration for communication channels by drift tracking

A method and system that provides for execution of a first calibration sequence, such as upon initialization of a system, to establish an operation value, which utilizes an algorithm intended to be exhaustive, and executing a second calibration sequence from time to time, to measure drift in the parameter, and to update the operation value in response to the measured drift. The second calibration sequence utilizes less resources of the communication channel than does the first calibration sequence. In one embodiment, the first calibration sequence for measurement and convergence on the operation value utilizes long calibration patterns, such as codes that are greater than 30 bytes, or pseudorandom bit sequences having lengths of 2N−1 bits, where N is equal to or greater than 7, while the second calibration sequence utilizes short calibration patterns, such as fixed codes less than 16 bytes, and for example as short as 2 bytes long.

Connectable rod system for driving downhole pumps for oil field installations

Improved sucker rod joints for down hole petroleum pumping applications are provided within the form factor of standard API sucker rods, such that existing inventory in suitable condition is fully usable in more demanding applications. The pin ends are selected or processed such as to provide preselected axial distance between a flat pin end and at least one reference surface, such as a threaded region or reference shoulder or both. The coupler is dimensioned such that the pin ends are in abutment either with each other or with opposite sides of an intervening torque washer in the central region, when the connection is made to a selected level of thread engagement. Furthermore, the engagement is such as to put the pin ends in compression and the coextensive length of coupler in tension. This increases frictional restraints and locks the elements together to resist fatigue failure upon cycling and to insure together with an anaerobic adhesive sealant, against back threading. This arrangement enables standard quality sucker rods to be employed in a configuration which is mechanically secure and highly resistant to tensile, bending and torsional forces, thus assuring a greater strength at the joint than in the rod itself, and resisting the effects of material fatigue arising from long term and stressful cycling operations.

Communication Device, Communication System, Communication Method, Communication Program, and Communication Circuit

The present invention is a network layer protocol used for free-space optical transmission utilizing an LED or LD as a light source. In order to connect to a device, the network layer issues a connection request command (LAP_con_req2) to a lower layer when the network layer has received a connection request command (LM_con_req1) from an upper layer. Furthermore, when the network layer has received a connection confirmation command reception notification (LAP_con_conf1) from the lower layer, the network layer issues a connection confirmation command reception notification (LM_con_conf2) to the upper layer without issuing a data transfer request command to the lower layer. Accordingly, the invention provides a network layer protocol with which time for a connection or disconnection is reduced.

Nonvolatile memory and method for compensating during programming for perturbing charges of neighboring cells

Shifts in the apparent charge stored on a charge storing element of a non-volatile memory cell can occur because of the coupling of an electric field based on the charge stored in adjacent charge storing elements. To compensate for this coupling, the programming process for a given memory cell can take into account the target programmed state of one or more adjacent memory cell. The amount of programming is verified after each programming pulse and the standard verify level for the programming cell is dependent on the target state. The verify level is further offset lower dependent on the amount of perturbation from neighboring cells, determinable by their target states. The verify level is preferably virtually offset by biasing adjacent word lines instead of actually offsetting the standard verify level. For soft-programming erased cells, neighboring cells on both adjacent word lines are taken into account.
