  • Publication number: 20220404223
    Abstract: A pressure measuring sensor having a ceramic pressure sensor includes a temperature transducer to provide a thermovoltage dependent on a temperature gradient. The temperature transducer includes two series-connected thermoelements, each of which has a galvanic contact between a wire of the thermoelement and a connecting conductor connecting the galvanic contacts of the two thermoelements to one another. The temperature transducer enables the compensation for a measuring error caused by a temperature gradient occurring along the pressure measuring sensor.

  • Publication number: 20220402310
    Abstract: Commercial vehicle tire of radial design with a tread with circumferential grooves formed to a profile depth, which divide the tread into at least two profile ribs (1) running in the central region of the tread with profile blocks (2) separated from one another by transverse grooves (3) and into shoulder-side profile ribs, wherein at least one of the circumferential grooves (4) adjoining a central profile rib (1) has, in cross section, a radially outer sipe-like narrow section (6) and a channel (8) adjoining this in the interior of the tread which is configured to be wider than the sipe-like narrow section (6) and which is delimited by two channel walls (8b) and a channel bottom (8a) forming the groove bottom, and wherein this circumferential groove (4) is interrupted in its course by entry points of transverse grooves (3). Opposite the entry points, a projection (9, 9?) is formed locally in each case on the channel wall (8b) located opposite the entry points of the transverse grooves (3).

  • Publication number: 20220406203
    Abstract: A control system in communication with one of an aircraft navigational aid system and an aircraft surveillance system is described. The control system obtains measurement data associated with radio frequency (RF) signals transmitted by the one of the aircraft navigational aid system and the aircraft surveillance system from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) reporting the measurement data. The control system also determines whether the measurement data indicates the RF signals are within a range of values based on a location of the UAV in an airspace proximate to the one of the aircraft navigational aid system and the aircraft surveillance system. The control system further controls the RF signals transmitted by the one of the aircraft navigational aid system and the aircraft surveillance system based on the measurement data and the location of the UAV. Methods performed by the control system are also described.

  • Publication number: 20220405880
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that improve output quality of any neural network, particularly an image generative neural network. In the real world, details of different scale tend to transform hierarchically. For example, moving a person's head causes the nose to move, which in turn moves the skin pores on the nose. Conventional generative neural networks do not synthesize images in a natural hierarchical manner: the coarse features seem to mainly control the presence of finer features, but not the precise positions of the finer features. Instead, much of the fine detail appears to be fixed to pixel coordinates which is a manifestation of aliasing. Aliasing breaks the illusion of a solid and coherent object moving in space. A generative neural network with reduced aliasing provides an architecture that exhibits a more natural transformation hierarchy, where the exact sub-pixel position of each feature is inherited from underlying coarse features.
