Abstract: A method for diagnosing damage in the shift control actuator of an automated manual transmission, involving at least one of the following steps: (a) determining a shift control actuator is damaged if an actual period needed for synchronizing a gear differs from a nominal time period for synchronizing the gear; (b) moving a shift-control actuator to a limit stop after selection of a gear, and determining a shift-control actuator is damaged if the limit stop that has been reached is an internal limit stop of the shift-control actuator and not a gear transmission limit stop; (c) determining the shift-control actuator is damaged if an actual speed during the overlap phase is not within a speed range within which the engine speed is expected to lie during the overlap phase.

Abstract: An interferometric confocal method and assembly for terabyte volume optical data memories couples two-beam spectral interferometry to chromatic confocal technology and permits a longitudinal splitting of foci in the memory volume, with the foci having limited diffraction. A spectrometer is located downstream of the interferometer with confocal discrimination in the beam path. A diffractive optical zone lens (DOZE) with a usage of the first diffraction order is introduced into the interferometric beam path to achieve longitudinal chromatic splitting. The interferometer can be a fiber-coupled interferometer with a retroreflector in the fiber-coupled reference arm and with wavelength-dependent optical path difference modification by dispersion or diffraction. The optical path difference in the interferometer is set so that easily detectable wavelets are formed from detectable interferograms by spectral analysis.
