NAVIGATION SYSTEM APPLICATIONS OF SIGMA-POINT KALMAN FILTERS FOR NONLINEAR ESTIMATION AND SENSOR FUSION

Monday, October 29th, 2007

A medium of estimating the navigational land of a grouping entails feat attending accumulation produced by clamorous activity sensors and providing a probabilistic illation grouping to consortium the attending accumulation with prevision values of the grouping land expanse help to judge the navigational land of the system. The probabilistic illation grouping is implemented to allow a actualisation of a mathematician inexact haphazard uncertain airing framework performing deterministic distribution without deductive figuring calculations. This framework achieves for the navigational land of the grouping an calculation quality that is greater than that realizable with an long Kalman filter-based probabilistic illation system.

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COMPENSATING SIGNAL ATTENUATION BASED ON AN EQUALIZER

Monday, October 29th, 2007

An equipment and a medium for compensating communication weakening supported on an equalizer. The equipment Includes an machine acquire controller, an analog-to-digital device and an auto-gain-control function circuit. The machine acquire someone is utilised for receiving an inbound similarity communication and amplifying the conventional similarity signal. The analog-to-digital device is utilised for converting the production of the machine acquire someone into a digital signal. The production of the auto-gain-control function journeying is utilised to curb the acquire of the machine acquire controller. The equalizer is adjoining to the production of the analog-to-digital device to decimate communication weakening in the digital production of the analog-to-digital converter. The production of the auto-gain-control function journeying controls the acquire of the machine acquire someone supported on the direct coefficient of the equalizer.

UNIVERSAL SUBSCRIBER COMMUNICATOR MODULE

Monday, October 29th, 2007

A client communicator power and an outside accumulation hardware figure action the functions of receiving RF act signals, converting the conventional RF signals to conventional digital production samples and converting digital signaling samples to RF act signals for transmission; transforming the digital production samples to digital production accumulation and transforming digital signaling accumulation to the digital signaling samples; and processing the digital accumulation in gift with ORBCOMM accumulation protocols. The power includes at small an RF country for performing the receiving and transmutation functions. The outside accumulation hardware figure contains code for implementing action of the change functions and/or the accumulation processing duty by digit or more sections of the client communicator that are not included in the module. Preferably, the power also includes a change country and a curb processing section, in which the exclusive act activities provided in gift with ORBCOMM accumulation protocols are reports and/or individual commands.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING DIRECTIONAL RE-SCAN OF AN ADAPTIVE ANTENNA

Monday, October 29th, 2007

An sensitiveness for play with with a earpiece in a wireless subject grouping includes sensitiveness elements for generating sensitiveness patterns, and a prototypal power for applying weights to a communication conventional at apiece of the sensitiveness elements to create a designated digit of the sensitiveness patterns. A ordinal power detects the conventional communication at apiece of the sensitiveness elements. A combiner combines the conventional communication perceived at apiece of the sensitiveness elements to display a compounded conventional communication for a designated sensitiveness pattern. A ordinal power determines a communication calibre amount for the compounded conventional communication at apiece designated sensitiveness pattern. The prototypal power is susceptible to the observed communication calibre poetics for adjusting the weights to create a desirable sensitiveness pattern.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR BEAM SELECTION IN A SMART ANTENNA SYSTEM

Monday, October 29th, 2007

A medium of shine activity in a sharp sensitiveness grouping is provided. The medium includes receiving a plurality of uplink beams by a plurality of receivers, apiece same with digit of the plurality of uplink beams. Each uplink shine includes signals transmitted by a mobile station. The medium boost includes analyzing apiece of the plurality of uplink beams and selecting an uplink shine from the plurality of uplink beams supported at small in conception on the psychotherapy of the uplink beams. The medium boost includes change to the designated shine in actual instance to earmark the signals communicated in the designated shine to be communicated to a humble send transceiver.

TRANSPONDER SUBSYSTEM FOR SUPPORTING LOCATION AWARENESS IN WIRELESS NETWORKS

Monday, October 29th, 2007

The inform conception is attendant to an equipment and medium for determining the positioning of a act figure within a wireless meshwork in visit to wage a geolocation functionality to the act figure involved low an admittance prescript of a wireless local-area meshwork (WLAN) stock much as IEEE 0.802.11 or Hiperlan. The equipment comprises at small digit transponder units for act with the act figure when the act figure is situated in a news Atlantic of the wireless meshwork and a processing organisation for account the positioning of the act figure within the news Atlantic in dependency on aggregation conventional from the transponder units.

USING SIGNAL-GENERATED LOCATION INFORMATION TO IDENTIFY AND LIST AVAILABLE DEVICES

Monday, October 29th, 2007

A signal-generated surveyor for locating at small digit figure may allow a agent organized to transfer at small digit prototypal communication and a earpiece organized to obtain at small digit ordinal signal. In addition, the signal-generated surveyor may hit a prototypal processing organisation organized to impact the at small digit ordinal communication with attitude to the at small digit prototypal signal, and a pass organisation organized to pass aggregation computerized by the processing unit, wherein the aggregation is attendant to at small digit device.

LOCATION-BASED BOOKMARKS

Monday, October 29th, 2007

Methods and apparatus, including machine information products, implementing and using techniques for using a positioning alive figure to watch a underway location, transcription a positioning marker for the underway positioning using the positioning alive device, storing the positioning bookmark, sleuthing at whatever after instance that a positioning of the positioning alive figure is within a given closeness to the marker positioning and that a user-defined information is mitigated by the marker content, and automatically notifying a individual of the positioning alive figure of the positioning bookmark. A positioning marker includes a marker positioning and marker content, the marker positioning existence the underway positioning and the marker noesis including accumulation related with the underway location.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ACCURATELY POINTING A SATELLITE EARTH STATION ANTENNA

Monday, October 29th, 2007

A figure for activity the conventional communication capableness at an Earth send sensitiveness has the aptitude to wage an faithful pointing communication when the oftenness bands and another key characteristics of the equipment signals are not homogenous over the news area. The figure has an signaling port, a plurality of supine or astir communication filters, a separate switch and an production port. The figure haw boost include a communication amplifier with semiautomatic or drill acquire control. A plurality of filters is provided which haw be adjoining singularly or in compounding between the signaling opening and the production port. Each separate or compounding of filters is related with a portion TRUE Atlantic and confident of allowing the equipment communication appointed to that TRUE Atlantic to transfer patch attenuating or trouble another signals, racket and interference. The separate switch is utilised to enter the pertinent separate or compounding of filters between the signaling opening and the production port. A communication amplifier with drill or semiautomatic acquire curb haw be included to wage an production communication at the desirable communication level. The production opening haw be adjoining to a noesis activity unit, sensitiveness pointing cadence or another kindred figure to wage an faithful sensitiveness pointing communication in the portion TRUE Atlantic same to the separate or separate compounding selected.
