  • Patent number: 9179344
    Abstract: A ranging method, executed in a ranging device, comprising steps of: among a plurality of parameter sets under a specific constraint, selecting one parameter set which minimizes a statistical value of a rising time of a received wireless signal; obtaining a trip time of the received wireless signal, wherein the received wireless signal is a wireless signal from an object; and estimating a distance between the object and the ranging device according to a corrected trip time, wherein the statistical value of the rising time of the received wireless signal corrects the trip time of the received wireless signal to generate the corrected trip time.

  • Patent number: 9020442
    Abstract: A ranging method, executed in a ranging device, comprising steps of: obtaining a trip time of a received wireless signal, wherein the received wireless signal is a wireless signal from an object; calculating a statistical value of a rising time of the received wireless signal; when the statistical value of the rising time of the received wireless signal is smaller than the specific value, estimating a distance between the object and the ranging device according to a corrected trip time, wherein the statistical value of the rising time of the received wireless signal corrects the trip time of the received wireless signal to generate the corrected trip time.

  • Patent number: 7493115
    Abstract: A wireless communication interface (2) of a communicating device (1) to which an identification address (BD_ADD) is assigned for communicating. The interface (2) includes radio frequency circuits (4) and a memory (32) for recording data relative to an operating test phase of the radio frequency circuits. According to the invention, the memory (32) is rendered hardware interdependent of the radio frequency circuits (4) of the communication interface (2). The identification address (BD_ADD) is written into the memory (32). Applications of the present invention include wireless networks and pico-networks such as “Bluetooth,” “Zig Bee,” and similar protocol.

  • Patent number: 6355936
    Abstract: An electrical insulation circuit of the type connected between a peripheral circuit and a two-way bus. The electrical insulation circuit includes first and second optocouplers for transmitting differential signals in the peripheral circuit-to-bus direction, and third and fourth optocouplers for transmitting differential signals in the bus-to-peripheral circuit direction. The first and third optocouplers are associated with a first signal terminal on the peripheral circuit side and with a first data wire on the bus side, and the second and fourth optocouplers are associated with a second signal terminal on the peripheral circuit side and with a second data wire on the bus side. Further, the first and third optocouplers and the second and fourth optocouplers are connected such that the first and second optocouplers are off during transmission in the bus-to-peripheral circuit direction and the third and fourth optocouplers are off during transmission in the peripheral circuit-to-bus direction.
