  • Patent number: 11811411
    Abstract: A glitch filter system includes an input stage to receive an input signal, a first output to provide a first digital signal, and a second output to provide a second digital signal. A C-element of such system receives the first digital signal and the second digital signal and provides a third digital signal at a first logic state in response to each of the first and second digital signals having a second logic state opposite the first logic state. An output latch of such system provides an output signal at the second logic state in response to the first logic state of the third digital. The output latch also receives the first and second digital signals to maintain the first logic state of the third digital signal in response to one of the first and second digital signals changing from the second logic state to the first logic state.

  • Publication number: 20220343223
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to a system and method to predict the personalized boarding time dynamically. The personalized boarding time in real-time by considering flight schedule data, predefined flight configuration data, passenger details, historical boarding time data, real time invasive data, and non-invasive real time data. Estimating boarding service rate based on historical information, predefined airline policies and boarding arrangements. Herein, the method categorizes input data related to an airline history, airport history, and various airline reference data. Further, the system analyses the cause of delay in boarding by comparing with the average historical time which may include boarding related delays and service rate related delays. The system and method compute the personalized boarding time by considering dynamic operational hurdles and various input datasets.
