Abstract: A global navigation satellite system (GNSS) spoofing detection and classification technique is provided. An optimization problem is formulated at the baseband correlator domain by using an optimization algorithm such as the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) algorithm, for example. A model of correlator tap outputs of the intended received signal is created to form a dictionary of pre-computed waveform functions (e.g., triangle-like-shaped functions). Sparse signal processing can be leveraged to choose a decomposition of pre-computed waveform functions from the dictionary. The optimal solution of this minimization problem can discriminate the presence of a potential spoofing attack peak by observing the decomposition of two different code-phase values (authentic and spoofed) in a sparse vector output. A threshold can be used to mitigate false alarms. Furthermore, a variation of the minimization problem can be provided that enhances the dictionary to a higher resolution.

Abstract: Solid-state lighting devices, and more particularly, symmetrical lead frame structures for two-pin light emitting diode (LED) packages and methods for making the same are disclosed. The symmetrical lead frame structure can include a pair of leads that include symmetrical split cup portions that collectively, when placed next to each other, form a cup, across which an LED flip-chip can be placed.

A molded lens can be formed around the lead frame to protect the chip, as well as maintain a gap between the pair of leads of the lead frame structure. In some embodiments, a fill material can be added in the gap between the pair of leads.

Abstract: Light-emitting diode (LED) packages, and more particularly arrangements of light-altering coatings in LED packages are disclosed. Exemplary LED packages may include lead frame structures that are at least partially encased by a housing. Arrangements of light-altering coatings may be provided that cover one or more portions of lead frame structures exposed within LED package recesses.

Additionally, such light-altering coatings may be configured to reflect light emissions from LED chips before reaching portions of lead frame structures. Light-altering coating arrangements are disclosed where light-altering coatings are arranged in contact with LED chips or, alternatively, in a spaced relationship with LED chips.

Abstract: Symmetric key exchange via TLS on CAN bus interface for multiple devices. The key exchange is configured to elect a master PCA pump for a CAN bus network and prevent two PCA pumps from being master. Upon joining the CAN bus network PCA pumps exchange their MAC IDs with the PCA pumps in the CAN bus network. Once a bootstrap timeout ends, each PCA pump compares all MAC IDs to determine if it should advance to the voting stage. If the PCA pump has the lowest MAC ID, the PCA pump enters the voting stage. During the voting stage, the PCA pump sends master requests prompts to all the PCA pumps in the network. If the PCA pump's internal vote counter reaches a count of three the PCA pump becomes key master.

Abstract: A device that treats water with multiple wavelengths of light an optionally sound in order to modify the structure of the water. The device may have two light panels on two different sides of a transparent container that holds water to be treated. Each light panel may have light sources that emit three different wavelengths of light. Specific wavelength combinations have been found to produce the desired structural changes in water. Hydrogen and/or oxygen, and/or minerals and/or chromophores may be added to the water before or during treatment. Potential sources of hydrogen and oxygen may be an electrolysis unit attached to or integrated into the light treatment device, or a hydrogen bearing mineral that may be added to the water. Experiments that treat and then freeze the water demonstrate a novel structure via the formation of unusual crystalline forms in the frozen, treated water.

Abstract: A method of detecting ghost objects in sensor measurements of an environment of a vehicle involves obtaining map context information from a digital road map. Objects having associated attributes are recognized in an environment of the vehicle, and social context information of the objects in relation to one another is generated. All available data of a traffic situation with the vehicle and the objects is stored in a graph structure, having nodes and edges. Relational information is depicted in the graph structure by the edges. Anomalies and patterns are searched for in features of the graph structure while taking the map context information and the social context information into account, whereby ghost objects are classified using recognized anomalies and patterns.
