  • Patent number: 11199629
    Abstract: A method for providing raw correction data for correcting atmospheric disturbances for satellite navigation includes checking whether a mobile satellite receiver for satellite navigation is in an immobile state using at least one sensor signal. The sensor signal represents a measurement variable dependent on a state of movement of the mobile satellite receiver. The method further includes evaluating at least one satellite signal transmitted between at least one satellite and the mobile satellite receiver in the immobile state with regard to a signal property dependent on atmospheric disturbances in order to generate the raw correction data. The raw correction data represents an item of information regarding the atmospheric disturbances.

  • Patent number: 11186079
    Abstract: A roller for a printing unit of a printing press, has a roller outer body, which is mounted on a roller inner body, so as to be movable axially in a reciprocating manner. For the axial movement of the roller outer body, in at least a first direction, a pneumatic drive is provided. The pneumatic drive has at least one first chamber, which is mounted in the interior of the roller in the manner of a cylinder/piston system between one or more structural elements, that are fixed to the roller outer body, and one or more structural elements that are fixed to the roller inner body. The chamber can be pressurized with compressed air. The parts of the structural elements adjoining the chamber, and that are movable axially relative to one another, form a non-contact seal between themselves on their mutually facing sides.

    Abstract: An amplifier arrangement has a plurality of function strings, which are required for nominal operation. In addition, the amplifier arrangement has a redundancy circuit and a redundant function string including a redundant converter and a redundant amplifier. If a function string is faulty, the redundancy circuit supplies the input signals of the faulty function string to the redundant function string. In addition, a high-frequency system with an inner housing and an outer housing is described, wherein an air gap separates the inner housing and the outer housing from one another so that high-frequency signals can be transmitted via the air gap between the inner housing and the outer housing.

  • Patent number: 11079729
    Abstract: A method is provided for controlling a multivalent energy supply system including at least two energy generators using at least two different energy carriers to provide heat, cold, and/or electrical energy. For each generator, a closed-loop controller controls variables of the generator. Each generator assumes one of three possible switching states: the generator must be switched on, must be switched off, or may be switched on or off. The system includes a control device for coordinatedly controlling the closed-loop controllers. The control device detects at least one request for heat and/or cold and/or electrical energy and determines whether a specific criterion is present which specifies exactly one of the three possible switching states for each generator. The control device determines target values for meeting the request depending on the request and the specific criterion and outputs the target values to the closed-loop controllers.

  • Patent number: 10992272
    Abstract: A high-frequency module can be used in communication satellites. The high-frequency module contains an electronic unit and a housing. The housing at least partially encloses the electronic unit, and the electronic unit is arranged at least partially in an interior space of the housing. An internal connector is arranged on the housing, which is coupled to the electronic unit such that electrical signals can be transmitted between the electronic unit and the internal connector. The internal connector is constructed integrally with at least a part of the housing. This allows a thermo-mechanical stress on the electronic unit to be reduced.
