  • Patent number: 11994617
    Abstract: An apparatus is for generating an emulated radar reflection signal of a target moving at a relative velocity. The apparatus includes a radar detector, an emulation transmitter, and a processor. The radar detector is configured to detect radar chirps emitted by a device under test (DUT), where the chirps are emitted at random time intervals. The emulation transmitter is configured to generate emulated radar reflection signals of the target being emulated. The processor is configured to generate control signals at intervals corresponding to the random time intervals at which the radar chirps are emitted by the DUT, where each control signal controls the emulation transmitter to generate a radar reflection signal. A relative phase of the control signals is adjusted according to a duration of each of the random time intervals between successive chirps and a magnitude and sign of the relative velocity of the target.

  • Publication number: 20240159052
    Abstract: A support assembly comprises a hub slidably coupled to a crossbar to support a sprinkler. A pair of opposed clip assemblies comprising a frame and a bracket couple the crossbar to the ceiling channel on either side. The frame comprises an opening that supports one end of the crossbar, a skirt with an elongated slot, and a leg that extends over the channel. The bracket couples to the frame to lock the clip assembly on the ceiling channel. The bracket comprises a ridge at one edge and a flange at an opposite edge. The ridge is configured to couple to a sidewall of the ceiling channel, and the flange is configured for a user to compress and tighten the bracket. A pair of opposing clamps on either side of the bracket ensures that the frame is securely coupled to the ceiling channel.

  • Patent number: 10838791
    Abstract: A system and method predicts events in a computer system. The system and method includes a controller that receives a crash profile. The controller generates granular information that identifies data indicative of a potential server cluster failure in an enterprise system without needing to identify an originating cause of the potential server cluster failure. The system and method trains a model by sampling portions of a profile that may include directives and data indicative of a normal operating state and a conditioned preamble operating state. The system and method provides a trained model to a prediction engine. The system and method modifies an allocation of computing resources in response to the prediction of the potential server cluster failure by the prediction engine monitoring one or more servers of a server cluster.
