Patent number: 7317537Abstract: A system and method for recovering lost data in an electronic gyroscope sensor system are disclosed, which use a linear adaptive predictive technique for determining what data was lost by the gyroscope sensor system during a disruptive interval involved. More precisely, a system and method for recovering lost data in a fiber optic gyroscope sensor system are disclosed, which continuously predicts “N” future samples of sensor data and stores the last known good “L” sensor values and the calculated “L” coefficients in a non-volatile memory. In the event that the fiber optic gyroscope sensor system becomes inoperable (e.g., due to a temporary loss of power to the gyroscope or other cause of electromechanical failure), and once the gyroscope sensor system resumes operation (e.g., power is reapplied), the stored “L” coefficients are retrieved from the non-volatile memory, and are used to calculate the data lost by the fiber optic gyroscope sensor system during the inoperative period involved.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2005Date of Patent: January 8, 2008Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventor: Jamal Haque

Patent number: 7173944Abstract: A digital subscriber line (DSL) communication system that utilizes the high frequency band of a standard telephone line does not require the use of a plain old telephone service (POTS) splitter in the resident's home, which provided isolation between the POTS frequency band (0 to 4 kHz) and the DSL frequency band. A digital subscriber line modem utilizes either constant envelope modulation or quadrature amplitude modulation for outputting DSL signals upstream to a central office. When a telephone in the resident's home is detected as being off-hook, then the constant envelope modulation is used by the DSL modem in order to lessen the intermodulation product distortion that results in audible noise heard by a user of the telephone. When the telephone is on-hook, then another type of modulation, such as QAM, is used to maximize the upstream data rate capability in the DSL frequency band, since any noise generated by the QAM is not a problem due to the non-use of the POTS frequency band.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2000Date of Patent: February 6, 2007Assignee: Conexant Systems, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth D.

Patent number: 6445733Abstract: A digital subscriber line communication system does not require the use of a plain old telephone service (POTS) splitter in the resident's home. Digital signal processing techniques are utilized to adapt to varying subscriber line conditions due to POTS telephone equipment. The digital signal processing techniques eliminate the need for a splitter by reducing susceptibility to distortion due to varying subscriber line characteristics. The digital subscriber line modem characterizes the subscriber line under a variety of conditions when the modem is in a non-idle mode. The digital subscriber line modem includes a control circuit which performs rapid retrain operation utilizing line characterization information.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 1998Date of Patent: September 3, 2002Assignee: Conexant Systems, Inc.Inventors: Edward S.
