Abstract: The present disclosure relates to transport link quality measurement in a distributed antenna system. A link quality indicator associated with the functional performance of a digital transport link in the distributed antenna system can be determined by a component of the distributed antenna system. An indication of a potential fault condition can be determined based on the link quality indicator before a fault condition associated with the potential fault condition occurs. The indication of the potential fault condition can be presented, for example, via a graphical user interface, a table, or an email alert.
Abstract: Described is a system for unsupervised domain adaptation in an autonomous learning agent. The system adapts a learned model with a set of unlabeled data from a target domain, resulting in an adapted model. The learned model was previously trained to perform a task using a set of labeled data from a source domain. The set of labeled data has a first input data distribution, and the set of unlabeled target data has a second input data distribution that is distinct from the first input data distribution. The adapted model is implemented in the autonomous learning agent, causing the autonomous learning agent to perform the task in the target domain.

Abstract: Fluid damped check valves are described herein. A representative check valve includes a piston assembly movably positioned within a housing. The housing can include a flow chamber, a damping chamber containing a damping fluid, and a leak chamber fluidly coupled between the flow chamber and the damping chamber. The piston assembly can include a poppet positioned in the flow chamber, and a flange positioned in the damping chamber. In operation, the piston assembly is movable between (i) a closed position in which the poppet sealingly engages the housing to at least inhibit fluid flow through the flow chamber and (ii) an open position in which the poppet disengages from the housing and permits fluid flow through the flow chamber. When the piston assembly moves between the open and closed positions, the flange moves through the damping fluid in the damping chamber to slow the movement of the poppet.
Abstract: A system for controlling an electric motor including a rotor supported by a lubricant upon a stator with a plurality of stator poles and stator windings includes monitoring a radial position and rotor angle of the rotor by a controller. The system includes generating adjustments by the controller to cause the stator poles to apply a net radial force to the rotor. This net radial force may be used, for example to cause the rotor to be centered upon a central axis of the electric motor and may be particularly advantageous for a lubricant supported rotor. A motor drive provides an AC current to the stator windings as well as phase current adjustments of the electrical current in one or more of the stator windings to apply the net radial force to the rotor in a direction perpendicular to the drive axis.
Abstract: An electronic grinder powered by a smartphone has an electronics housing removably attached to a container section. The electronics housing has a motor and a microcontroller powered by a smartphone connected by a universal serial bus connector. The container section is sealed at the top by an openable, swivel-mounted cap. The motor has a blade that extends into the container section. The blade connected to the motor by a magnetic connection and the blade is configured to grind material disposed in the container section when the container section is closed.
Abstract: A container includes a plurality of panels connected together at fold lines to extend at least partially around an interior space. A plurality of end flaps are each foldably connected to a respective one of the panels. The end flaps are overlapped with one another to enclose an end of the interior space. One of the end flaps is a main bird-feeder flap. A side bird-feeder flap foldably connected to the main bird-feeder flap. The main bird-feeder flap and the side bird-feeder flap are configured to deploy from a closed position cooperating with the plurality of end flaps to enclose the end of the interior space, to an open position with the main bird-feeder flap hinged outward from the interior space to form an opening in the end of the interior space, and with the side bird-feeder flap forming a side of the opening.

Abstract: Systems and methods for forming a liquid mixture having a predetermined mix ratio and reforming systems, reforming methods, fuel cell systems, and fuel cell methods that utilize the liquid mixture. The methods include apportioning a preselected volume of liquid from a liquid source. During the apportioning, the liquid is a first liquid, and the methods further include providing a first preselected volume of the first liquid to a mix tank. The methods also include repeating the apportioning with a second liquid providing a second preselected volume of the second liquid to the mix tank to generate the liquid mixture. The methods also may include providing the liquid mixture to a reforming region, reforming the liquid mixture to generate a mixed gas stream that includes hydrogen gas, and providing the hydrogen gas to a fuel cell assembly to generate an electric current.
Abstract: A vehicle includes an powerplant, a manual transmission, and a clutch. A vehicle controller is programmed to automatically control operation of the clutch allowing the driver to shift gears by just operating the gear shifter. The vehicle also includes an input allowing the driver to override the controller and operate the clutch. The input is located on the gear shifter and is in electric communication with the controller. The controller is programmed to, inter alia, command the clutch to reduce clutch capacity responsive to receiving a signal from the sensor indicating grasping of the shifter.
