  • Publication number: 20030085802
    Abstract: A fast data transfer collection system using message authentication and contactless RF proximity card technology in non-contact storage and retrieval applications. The system is generally comprised of Host computers (application computer systems), Target radio frequency (RF) terminals, and a plurality of portable Tags (“smart” or “proximity” cards). A Host provides specific application functionality to a Tag holder, with a high degree of protection from fraudulent use. A Target provides control of the RF antenna and resolves collisions between multiple Tags in the RF field. A Tag provides reliable, high speed, and well authenticated secure exchanges of data/information with the Host resulting from the use of a custom ASIC design incorporating unique analog and digital circuits, nonvolatile memory, and state logic. Each Tag engages in a transaction with the Target in which a sequence of message exchanges allow data to be read(written) from(to) the Tag.

  • Patent number: 6547148
    Abstract: A collision resolution system and method for enhanced non-contact automated data collection. The data collection system generally includes a plurality of portable fare tags or token (“smart”) cards and a stationary target terminal. Each tag exchanges a series of messages with the target terminal to establish a communication link for the transfer of financial or other data. Concurrently, each tag and the target terminal process the messages to provide collision resolution, thereby ensuring that only one tag, at any instance, establishes the communication link with the target.

  • Patent number: 6535832
    Abstract: A vehicle exhaust system test fixture integrates separate dynamic controls to provide at least twelve degrees of freedom (DOF). In one embodiment, two separate test tables are integrated so that one of the tables supports mounting of an engine/powertrain or apparatus simulating the engine/powertrain when coupled to an exhaust system. The other table supports mounting of the exhaust system to be tested. Each table is linked to a set of actuators/accelerometers to control motion up to 6 DOF. The capability of twelve DOF allows the test fixture to accurately reproduce both the dynamic behavior of a vehicle engine/powertrain during operation, and the dynamic behavior of the vehicle chassis during operation in the area where the exhaust system is attached to the vehicle frame. In addition, generated thermal profiles and high frequency external vibrations can be applied to allow simulation of real-world vibrations, and thermal stresses caused by hot exhaust gases.

  • Publication number: 20030039450
    Abstract: Connector assemblies for tightly compacting end portions of a bundle of optical fibers together include a plastic tube surrounding the optical fiber end portions and a metal ferrule surrounding the plastic tube. The metal ferrule is crimped to maintain a compression force on the optical fiber end portions while the plastic tube acts as a buffer to prevent damage to the optical fiber end portions by the metal ferrule and is stiff enough to prevent the compression force from causing the optical end portions to sink into the plastic tube blocking light entering the optical fiber end portions.

  • Publication number: 20020142956
    Abstract: The invention is based on the finding that the secretin receptor is expressed in tissues present in the distal lung of humans. In patient with CF, levels of the receptor are elevated compared to normal tissue. Treatment of tissue by secretin stimulates the movement of negative ions in the tissue. The invention provides methods of treatment of cystic fibrosis or COPD in a patient by administering to said patient an effective amount of an agent which triggers anion efflux in respiratory tissue via the activation of a secretin receptor.

  • Patent number: 6401520
    Abstract: A personal sampling method and apparatus for real time respirable dust dosimetry for dust exposure assessment is provided to aid in assuring the respiratory health of workers. An embodiment uses a low flow-rate gas sampling pump for differential pressure measurements across a glass fiber collection filter in a disposable detector tube (12) or dust detecting device coupled to the pump inlet. The dust detecting device includes an elongated tubular element (12) having the filter (30) positioned between proximal and distal ends of the tube (12) for trapping dust mass. A pressure transducer (16) at the proximal end (36) measures the pressure from the flow of gas. The pump draws the flow of gas through the dust detecting device from the distal end (38) towards the proximal end (36) trapping the dust mass at the filter (30).

  • Patent number: 6304829
    Abstract: A method and system are provided for generating engine attachment control boundary conditions and corresponding control signals for an exhaust system laboratory test fixture which accurately reproduce both the dynamic behavior of a vehicle powertrain during operation, and the dynamic behavior of the vehicle frame during operation in the area where the exhaust system is attached to the vehicle frame. Road load data is collected in vertical, lateral, and longitudinal directions on the vehicle frame during vehicle operation at each of the locations where the exhaust system attaches. In addition, temperature and thermal cycling data are also collected during operation of the vehicle. The road load data is used to determine a best fit rigid body model. Accelerometer locations and directions are determined from statistical analysis and ranking to find the measures best fitting the determined rigid body.

  • Patent number: 6259769
    Abstract: A controller module is releasably received in a cradle portion of a transceiver assembly to form a portable smart card communication device. The transceiver assembly includes a transceiver and a connector to electrically connect the controller module to the transceiver. The controller module establishes a communication link between itself and a smart card by sending and receiving signals and data through the connector. Information is read from the smart card and forwarded to the controller module. Information is transmitted through the transceiver assembly and stored on the smart card. The controller module can easily be removed and used with other transceiver assemblies.
