Abstract: Systems, methods and devices are disclosed for a variable-rate true-time delay (VR-TTD) decimator for receiving an input data signal and providing an output decimated signal. The VR-TTD decimator may comprise: a VR-TTD decimator input for receiving the input data signal; and a VR-TTD decimator output for outputting the output decimated signal; a numerically controlled oscillator (NCO) for receiving a time delay control signal and a desired rate signal and for controlling coarse filtering, fine filtering and decimation of the input data signal; and an accumulator for generating the output decimated signal, wherein the accumulator comprises a plurality of shift registers, controlled by the NCO. The system may comprise a beamformer for providing an output signal coherently summed from a plurality of paths, where each path comprises a VR-TTD decimator for providing VR-TTD to the respective signals of the plurality of paths.

Abstract: A low tire pressure warning system for a trailer having a frame for supporting the body of the trailer, having tandem axles equipped with normally inflated pneumatic tires, leaf spring suspension structure for the axles including a walking beam that is pivoted on the frame for tilting movement in opposite directions from a normal position in accordance with the deflation of a tire of either one of the axles, a signal member for indicating that one of the tires doesn't have enough air, a signal operating switch in circuit with the signal member, and mechanical actuating structure for the signal operating switch.
