Coordinate Conversion Or Vector Resolver Patents (Class 708/809)
  • Patent number: 11686267
    Abstract: A system includes a control circuit and an adjustable low-pass filter. The control circuit is configured to receive an input signal and to control at least one engine output based on the input signal. The adjustable low-pass filter receives the input signal, and filters the input signal prior to forwarding the input signal to the control circuit. The adjustable low-pass filter has a first setting in which the adjustable low-pass filter has a first cut-off frequency and a second setting in which the adjustable low-pass filter has a second cut-off frequency. The first setting configures the control circuit to be used with a first sensor having a first dynamic range and the second setting configures the control circuit to be used with a second sensor having a second dynamic range.

  • Patent number: 8219603
    Abstract: This disclosure concerns a waveform corrector comprising a first portion calculating an offset value of an intermediate value between a maximum value and a minimum value of a signal with respect to a reference value; a second portion calculating an actual amplitude of the signal by subtracting the offset value from the maximum value or the minimum value; a third portion generating a first correction signal by subtracting the offset value from the digital signal; a fourth portion subtracting a value obtained by shifting a figure of the actual amplitude from the actual amplitude so that the actual amplitude converges into a reference amplitude; and a fifth portion subtracting a value obtained by shifting the first correction signal by an amount identical to a shift amount of the actual amplitude from the first correction signal so that the first correction signal converges into a second correction signal.

  • Patent number: 8094768
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a novel multi-channel timing recovery scheme that utilizes a shared CORDIC to accurately compute the phase for each tone. Then a hardware-based linear combiner module is used to reconstruct the best phase estimate from multiple phase measurements. The firmware monitors the noise variance for the pilot tones and determines the corresponding weight for each tone to ensure that the minimum phase jitter noise is achieved through the linear combiner. Then a hardware-based second-order timing recovery control loop generates the frequency reference signal for VCXO or DCXO. A single sequentially controlled multiplier is used for all multiplications in the control loop.

  • Patent number: 7869899
    Abstract: Apparatus and method for fitting a workpiece to geometric design data of a workpiece. Nominal data points are selected from the geometric design data. Command codes are created to generate measured data points. The measurement data points have associated nominal measurement points which are used to fit the workpiece to the geometric design data. The apparatus and method may also be used to determine whether a workpiece is within tolerance and for process control.

  • Publication number: 20090193067
    Abstract: Technologies are described herein for recalculating data-bound vector graphics on a server computer. A drawing program allows formulas to define how external data is utilized modify the attributes of a shape. When a request is received to publish a drawing to a server computer, any formulas are converted to server-optimized formulas. Once the formulas have been converted to server-optimized formulas, a published drawing is generated that includes the server-optimized formulas, a representation of the drawing in a vector format, and data identifying bindings between shapes within the drawing and external data. When a request to view the published drawing is received, the data bindings for the drawing are refreshed. The server-optimized formulas are then recalculated using updated values to generate new values for the shape attributes. The vector representation of the drawing is then updated with the new values and rasterized for display in a browser.
