20090201191AIRCRAFT TRACKING USING LOW COST TAGGING AS A DISCRIMINATOR - A simplified multilateration and ADS-B Surveillance System is used, to perform tagging for the FAA Low Cost Ground Surveillance program. This system may also be used as the foundation for a full multilateration system, if a customer wants to upgrade. The present invention uses just one active transmitter/receiver unit as opposed to multiple passive receivers. The present invention captures UF 5 and DF 5 data, thus providing Mode A identification, which then acts as the key to obtaining the call sign from a data fusion packages—thus making it an affordable and marketable product for small to medium-sized airports.08-13-2009

20080211709DEPLOYABLE PASSIVE BROADBAND AIRCRAFT TRACKING - In a first, preferred embodiment of the present invention, integrated tracking is provided using passive broadband. The invention takes the system for deployable passive broadband detection and extends it by incorporating the capability to decode position for ADS-B, SSR multilateration, and broadband multilateration. In a second embodiment, validation of a self-reported position is provided. The invention takes the system for deployable passive broadband detection and extends it by incorporating the capability to decode self-reported position for ADS-B, and compare it to line of calculated position, or line of precision, derived from multilateration techniques applied to various signals received from the aircraft. In a third embodiment, validation of a self-reported ADS-B position using independent surveillance is provided by the system.09-04-2008
20100149019METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ADS-B VALIDATION, ACTIVE AND PASSIVE MULTILATERATION, AND ELLIPTICAL SURVEILLANCE - A system and method are disclosed to track aircraft or other vehicles using techniques including multilateration and elliptical surveillance. Unlike conventional approaches that use time difference of arrival for multilateration at a fixed set of reception points, this technique allows targets to be tracked from a number of dynamic or moving reception points. This allows for triangulation/multilateration and elliptical surveillance of targets from combinations of fixed, fixed and moving or only moving ground-based receivers, sea-based receivers, airborne receivers and space-based receivers. Additionally this technique allows for ADS-B validation through data derived from only two receivers to assess the validity and integrity of the aircraft self-reported position by comparing the time of arrival of the emitted message at the second receiver to the predicted time of message arrival at the second receiver based on the self-reported position of the aircraft and the time of arrival at the first receiver. The benefits of using less than three receivers for validation include greater validation coverage areas using a smaller set of ground stations at a lower infrastructure cost.06-17-2010

20110083499ADJUSTABLE BELT DYNAMOMETER - An adjustable chassis dynamometer includes a fixed roller, an adjustable roller that moves with respect to the fixed roller, and at least one sensor that detects a rotational speed of the fixed or adjustable roller. A belt drive synchronizes rotation of the rollers. The belt drive includes a fixed pulley associated with the fixed roller, an adjustable pulley associated with the adjustable roller, and a tensioner pulley. A belt is provided with an inner surface and an outer surface, and surrounding the fixed, adjustable, and tensioner pulleys, such that each pulley engages the belt's inner surface. The belt drive further includes an idler pulley that moves with the adjustable pulley, is located outside of the belt, and engages the belt's outer surface.04-14-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090026397System, apparatus and method for controlling valves - Systems, apparatuses and methods for controlling valves through controlled power escalation towards the actuation threshold of the valve. A power signal is applied to a control input of a valve at a level less than a valve switch threshold at which the valve will be actuated. The power to the control input is then progressively increased. The valve is actuated when the power signal eventually reaches the valve switch threshold, thereby actuating the valve using a power signal commensurate with the actual valve switch threshold of the particular valve and its current operating conditions.01-29-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080209173Branch predictor directed prefetch - An apparatus for executing branch predictor directed prefetch operations. During operation, a branch prediction unit may provide an address of a first instruction to the fetch unit. The fetch unit may send a fetch request for the first instruction to the instruction cache to perform a fetch operation. In response to detecting a cache miss corresponding to the first instruction, the fetch unit may execute one or more prefetch operation while the cache miss corresponding to the first instruction is being serviced. The branch prediction unit may provide an address of a predicted next instruction in the instruction stream to the fetch unit. The fetch unit may send a prefetch request for the predicted next instruction to the instruction cache to execute the prefetch operation. The fetch unit may store prefetched instruction data obtained from a next level of memory in the instruction cache or in a prefetch buffer.08-28-2008
20080263373Token based power control mechanism - A token-based power control mechanism for an apparatus including a power controller and a plurality of processing devices. The power controller may detect a power budget allotted for the apparatus. The power controller may convert the allotted power budget into a plurality of power tokens, each power token being a portion of the allotted power budget. The power controller may then assign one or more of the plurality of power tokens to each of the processing devices. The assigned power tokens may determine the power allotted for each of the processing devices. The power controller may receive one or more requests from the plurality of processing devices for one or more additional power tokens. In response to receiving the requests, the power controller may determine whether to change the distribution of power tokens among the processing devices.10-23-2008
20090172362PROCESSING PIPELINE HAVING STAGE-SPECIFIC THREAD SELECTION AND METHOD THEREOF - One or more processor cores of a multiple-core processing device each can utilize a processing pipeline having a plurality of execution units (e.g., integer execution units or floating point units) that together share a pre-execution front-end having instruction fetch, decode and dispatch resources. Further, one or more of the processor cores each can implement dispatch resources configured to dispatch multiple instructions in parallel to multiple corresponding execution units via separate dispatch buses. The dispatch resources further can opportunistically decode and dispatch instruction operations from multiple threads in parallel so as to increase the dispatch bandwidth. Moreover, some or all of the stages of the processing pipelines of one or more of the processor cores can be configured to implement independent thread selection for the corresponding stage.07-02-2009
