  • Publication number: 20210239786
    Abstract: Locating systems and methods for wireless seat belt monitoring in vehicles with removable or reconfigurable seats are provided herein. An example remote transceiver can be centrally located on a seat that is configured to be rearranged within a vehicle. The remote transceiver can include a processor and memory for storing instructions that include a unique code identifying the remote transceiver. The processor executes the instructions to receive low power signals from transmitters within an interior of the vehicle, determine received signal strength values of the low power signals. The received signal strength values are used by the vehicle receiver to determine a location of the remote transceiver within the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20130290150
    Abstract: Optimum Inventory Management is important in a variety of applications ranging from managing stocks of consumer perishables of a supermarket chain to managing number of magazines to be distributed to retail stores. Currently inventory decision making are done at certain segment or bucket level, thus making the implementation sub-optimal. In this invention, we develop a method and a system for performing analysis at much finer level of granularity. Moreover, widely used inventory models are not capable of handling the display effect and its interaction with price. Inventory decision making at customized scenarios is accomplished by leveraging business intelligence software that allow one to write scripts to perform real-time analysis under user specified input parameters. Inventory optimization at finer level of granularity is accomplished using a model that incorporates various drivers including the display and price effects, and latest statistical techniques to estimate the model with historical data.

  • Patent number: 8055219
    Abstract: A first value of an operational center frequency of a signal to transmit is determined according to received user input. The operational center frequency is centered within a first band of frequencies and the first band of frequencies has a first bandwidth. A single loop antenna is tuned to match the first value of the center frequency and the single loop antenna is arranged and configured to operate across a second band of frequencies having a second bandwidth. The first bandwidth is less than the second bandwidth. The signal is transmitted from the single loop antenna according to the first value of the operational center frequency to provide a transmitted signal.
