Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with tracking packet identifiers are described. According to one embodiment, a method includes receiving a packet of data that includes an encoded packet identifier and decoding the encoded packet identifier into a decoded packet identifier. The method further includes estimating a reliability of the decoded packet identifier and determining a packet identifier of the received packet based, at least in part, on the estimated reliability of the decoded packet identifier.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with tracking packet identifiers are described. According to one embodiment, a method includes receiving packets of data, wherein each packet includes an encoded packet identifier, the encoded packet identifier being decoded into a decoded packet identifier, and after each packet is received, incrementing a first counter and a second counter for estimating a sequential value of the decoded packet identifier.

Abstract: A removable hitch attachment configured to couple a towable vehicle to the bucket of a piece of earth-moving equipment, the bucket having wall portions terminating in edges that define an opening of the bucket. The removable hitch attachment includes a hitch mount configured to permit mounting of a hitch onto the removable hitch attachment. The removable hitch attachment further includes an edge engaging structure configured to receive one of the edges of the bucket to secure the hitch mount to the bucket. The edge engaging structure is further configured to secure the removable hitch attachment to the bucket independent of engagement with the other edges of the bucket and free of any structural modification of the bucket.
