Abstract: This application discloses a network, including a first switch, a second switch, and a controller. A management port of the first switch is connected to a first forwarding port of the first switch, and a third forwarding port of the first switch is connected to a fourth forwarding port of the second switch. In a boot phase of the network, the first switch communicates with a DHCP server by using a preset flow table, and obtains an IP address of the first switch.

Abstract: Ultrasonic ranging systems and methods that use coding to distinguish emitted bursts from multiple transducers temporally stagger the bursts emitted from the transducers. The stagger delay between bursts from different transducers in a sensing frame can be randomized between different sensing frames to prevent blind zones. The stagger delay can be relatively small (e.g., between 3 ms and 10 ms) as compared to delays required between bursts in a single-tone ranging system (which would need to be more on the order of between 30 ms and 40 ms, depending on the maximum detecting range of the ranging system). The coding of bursts can be selected to utilize the entire bandwidth of the bursting transducer so as to preserve short-range sensitivity over transducer ringing. Schemes in which some transducers in a system only listen for bursts from other transducers but do not themselves burst within a sensing frame are also described.

Abstract: In an ultrasonic detection system that uses frequency-modulation coding to distinguish emitted bursts from multiple transducers, a receiver associated with a transducer uses dynamic thresholding to discriminate valid echoes from system and environmental noise in multiple envelope signals produced by multiple correlators. The time-varying dynamic thresholds are generated from the mean of noise in a respective envelope derived from the output of a respective correlator. Multiple thresholds can be combined together such that a single time-varying threshold is applied to all correlators' envelopes. Such thresholding has the benefits of a constant false-alarm rate with regard to detection of echoes (as opposed to false triggering from noise), and, owing to finer-resolution and adaptive thresholds, can detect targets or obstacles as further distances and with greater time responsiveness.

Abstract: In an ultrasonic detection system that uses frequency-modulation or phase-modulation coding to distinguish emitted bursts from multiple transducers, a receiver associated with a transducer uses peak search, peak buffer, and peak rank stages in one or more receiver signal processing paths to identify valid received ultrasonic signal envelope peaks in correlator outputs. The peak rank stage can support different modes respectively designed to handle one code, two or more codes, or two or more codes with support for Doppler frequency shift detection. Valid peak information (e.g., amplitude and time) can be reported to a central controller and/or stored locally in a fusion stage to generate more intelligent information for targets or obstacles using peaks from multiple bursts.
