  • Patent number: 10353681
    Abstract: A method for improving performance of an access triggered architecture for a computer implemented application is provided. The method first executes typical operations of the access triggered architecture according to an execution time, wherein the typical operations comprise: obtaining a dataset and an instruction set; and using the instruction set to transmit the dataset to a functional block associated with an operation, wherein the functional block performs the operation using the dataset to generate a revised dataset. The method further creates a pipeline of the typical operations to reduce the execution time of the typical operations, to create a reduced execution time; and executes the typical operations according to the reduced execution time, using the pipeline.

  • Publication number: 20180198388
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for a controlled motor assembly for use in a reaction wheel assembly (RWA). The controlled motor assembly is optimized to work with an AC motor, and includes a filter configured to inhibit electrical and electromagnetic noise from being coupled between a spacecraft power bus and a power bus internal to the RWA, as well as an arrangement of power switch elements providing a path for motor phase currents associated with the AC motor. A digital control system is implemented to receive a command input, position sensor feedback and to retrieve parameters associated with the AC motor from a memory device. Based on the command input, the position sensor feedback and the parameters associated with the AC motor, the digital control system controls activation for the arrangement of power switch elements, and generates data output.

  • Patent number: 9747197
    Abstract: A method for using an access triggered architecture for a computer implemented application is provided. The method receives a set of data at a designated functional block associated with a system memory location; performs an operation at the designated functional block, using the set of data, to generate a result, wherein the operation is performed each time information is received at the designated functional block; and returns the generated result to the system memory location.

  • Patent number: 9641287
    Abstract: A method for performing high-integrity data transmission is provided. The method obtains a first set of data at a first transmitter and a second set of data at a second transmitter; develops a first key for the obtained first set of data and a second key for the obtained second set of data; and when the first key matches the second key, provides a receiver indication of validity of the first set of data. In certain embodiments, the method stores the first key and the second key within a predetermined window of time. In some embodiments, when the first key matches the second key, the method also synchronizes operation of the first transmitter and the second transmitter.
