Abstract: A system and method for operation of an autonomous vehicle (AV) yard truck is provided. A processor facilitates autonomous movement of the AV yard truck, and connection to and disconnection from trailers. A plurality of sensors are interconnected with the processor that sense terrain/objects and assist in automatically connecting/disconnecting trailers. A server, interconnected, wirelessly with the processor, that tracks movement of the truck around and determines locations for trailer connection and disconnection. A door station unlatches/opens rear doors of the trailer when adjacent thereto, securing them in an opened position via clamps, etc. The system computes a height of the trailer, and/or if landing gear of the trailer is on the ground and interoperates with the fifth wheel to change height, and whether docking is safe, allowing a user to take manual control, and optimum charge time(s). Reversing sensors/safety, automated chocking, and intermodal container organization are also provided.

Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device supported by the chassis and configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover, wherein activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle, a body for storing refuse therein supported by the chassis, a first hydraulic pump configured to convert electrical power into hydraulic power, a second first hydraulic pump configured to convert electrical power into hydraulic power, and a motor coupled to at least one of the body or the chassis and configured to drive the first hydraulic pump and drive the second hydraulic pump.

Abstract: Signals sent between a first device and a second device are split. A first user adjustable input signal equalization and gain compensates for losses to signals from the first device before the compensated signals are forwarded to the second device, a first analytic instrument and a second analytic instrument. A second user adjustable input signal equalization and gain compensates for losses to signals from the second device before the first compensated signals are forwarded to the first device, the first analytic instrument and the second analytic instrument.

Abstract: Transmissions from mid-bus test equipment to a first device and from a second device to the mid-bus test equipment are equalized. Equalization instructions are passed from the first device through the mid-bus test equipment to the second device. The mid-bus test equipment changes the quality of transmissions sent to the first device in order to steer the first device to produce equalization instructions that will produce optimized transmissions from the mid-bus test equipment to the first device and from the second device to the mid-bus test equipment.

Abstract: A replay analyzer is disclosed. The replay analyzer is able to capture traffic from a transmission medium such as a buss and store it in a trace buffer. The replay analyzer can replay that captured data repeatedly as desired and can trigger activity based on patterns found in the captured data. If desired, the captured data may be used for purposes of traffic generation.

Abstract: A passive aircraft proximity detector for use in highway vehicles. This invention includes a unique internal antenna (1) feeding a superheterodyne receiver (2). A novel reference system (3) provides phase synchronous local oscillator injection. A signal analysis system (4) determines the presence of a valid signal and activates a tracking indicator (5). The analysis system also provides range data to an indicator which displays the approximate range of the aircraft (6). A mutable timed audio alarm is also incorporated (7).

Abstract: A mechanical process for significantly improving the octane rating performance of gasoline powered engines (either conventional carburetion or fuel injection). An auxiliary system fractionates a precise portion of the required fuel and combines the fraction thus formed with a conventionally produced air/fuel mixture in states and proportions which optimize the combustion process. Different means of implementing the process are described utilizing an additional fuel controller which is connected to a fuel supply through an existing fuel pump which delivers fuel to both the fuel controller and an existing carburetion of fuel-injection system. Air for both is drawn through a common air filter. A proportioning system determines the proper amount of air and fuel entering the controller where they are mixed. The vapor fraction is enhanced and stabilized by passing the mixture through a heat exchanger.
