Abstract: A method is disclosed. In various examples, the method may include receiving an instruction for generating a ranging signal, and transmitting the ranging signal at least partially responsive to the instruction. In various examples the ranging signal may be transmitted via a terrestrial transmitter for transmitting radio waves having encoded messaging information and timing information for one or more of positioning, navigation and timing. In various examples, the ranging signal may exhibit a first ranging pulse and a second ranging pulse of a pulse group and an encoded transmitter identifier, the transmitter identifier encoded by modulating an inter-pulse interval defined between a start of the first ranging pulse and a start of the second ranging pulse.

The device may include a processor to decode the data at least partially responsive to the phases of the respective ones of the number of data pulses.

Abstract: A device is disclosed. In one or more examples, the device may include an antenna to receive a signal comprising a ranging signal and a data signal. The signal may encode timing information for one or more of positioning, navigation, and timing. The signal may include a first pulse having a first start time and a second pulse having a second start time. The second start time may be an integer number of inter-pulse intervals plus an encoding delay after the first start time. The encoding delay may encode data. The device may include a processor to obtain the data responsive to the encoding delay.

Abstract: A method of predicting the probability of injuries in ice hockey which consists of analysing data from accelerometers and gyroscopes on the torso of a player and assessing the work load of the muscles of the player as an indicator of the probability of injury. One aspect provides a method of predicting the probability of groin injuries in ice hockey which consists of analysing data from accelerometers and gyroscopes on the torso of a player and assessing groin load as an indicator of the probability of groin injury. A second aspect provides method of managing player availability by limiting injuries which consists of analysing data from accelerometers and gyroscopes on the torso of a player and identifying and counting the number of slap shots executed as a means of assessing the player load as an indicator of probability of injury.

Abstract: A moving magnet motor with a stator comprising first and second spaced coil-wound cores that each have a width, the cores separated by an elongated gap, and an elongated magnet located at least in part in the gap and lying generally along a motor depth axis that is in the gap and is generally uniformly offset from the cores, where the magnet has poles. The motor has a width axis that is perpendicular to the depth axis and is generally uniformly offset from the cores. The magnet has a width along the motor width axis and the cores each have a width along the motor width axis. Along the motor depth axis the ratio of the width of the magnet or a pole of the magnet to the width of a core varies.

Abstract: An acoustic device includes a resilient surround having a proportionately unequal distribution of half roll and inverted half roll segments. Half roll segments may be sized and located to provide additional clearance for internal components. Regions of transitional concavity may be sized and located to provide increased stiffness in one or more dimensions. Transitions between inversions of concavity may be smooth and free of localized inflexions.
