  • Publication number: 20230159279
    Abstract: A method for managing an automation system involving asynchronous and synchronous zones, the method including: determining when a moving element enters a merge zone between an asynchronous zone and a synchronous zone; calculating additive jerk to be applied to the moving element, In some cases, the additive jerk is based on predetermined compensation profiles; determining if the master position change is different than a base logged; if so, interpolating additive jerk based on movement characteristics of the moving element; in either event, applying the additive jerk to the moving element; and determining if the merge is completed and, if yes, ending the merge and continue with synchronous operation but, if no, returning to calculating the additive jerk and repeat. A system including a processor/controller and a memory including instructions, which when executed by the processor/controller, perform the method.

  • Publication number: 20230104908
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for gathering electronic signatures to be applied to collaboration system content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). A collaboration system monitors changes made to the collaboration system content objects during electronic signature processing. A module of the content management system is configured to associate one or more instances of e-signing metadata to one or more of the stored content objects of the content management system. The e-signing metadata indicates whether or not a particular portion of the one or more of the stored content objects has been e-signed by a designated e-signatory. A collaborator who is not one of the designated e-signatories makes a change to one or more of the stored content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). The change is remediated on-the-fly and the e-signing process continues without having to restart the e-signing process from the beginning.

  • Publication number: 20230091610
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to using machine learning models to generate current time-series features using machine learning and validate time-series machine learning model output. At least one aspect is directed to a system with one or more processors, coupled to memory, to segment a time series range into a first segment for an instance of time, the segment associated with a value for a target feature and a timestamp for the value, segment the time series range into an input segment associated with a plurality of input features and a segment timestamp less than or equal to the timestamp, generate a model trained with input comprising values for the target feature and timestamps for the values less than or equal to the segment timestamp, and transform at least one of the input features based at least on the model.

  • Patent number: 11459877
    Abstract: A combinatorial frequency system and method for transmitting data from LWD downhole operations to a surface location is provided. The system and method include obtaining data from at least one downhole sensor, encoding data by combinations of different harmonics, and (optionally) modulating the data using various frequency modulation techniques to produce a series of 3-40 bit rates. The system and method include transmitting the series as pressure wave signals through drilling fluid or through earth media by electromagnetic waves, detecting the signals, identifying at a surface location each frequency, modulating characteristics of each frequency, decoding each signal and forming output signals.

  • Publication number: 20220289286
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a regulating device for regulating the steering angle for a vehicle, comprising a first controller unit with a controller superposed thereon, the controller having a feedback path and a prefilter. The feedback path provides a first adjustment variable based on actual steering angle information which is provided by the first controller unit as an output variable and the prefilter provides a second adjustment variable based on nominal steering angle information. The controller is configured to form input information for the first controller unit based on the first and the second adjustment variables, wherein the feedback path has a first correction element, the transfer behavior of which can be adjusted. The prefilter has a second correction element, the transfer behavior of which can be adjusted. The controller is configured such that at least the controller gain of the first controller unit can be adjusted.

  • Publication number: 20220281518
    Abstract: A railborne driver assistance device for supporting or automating the lateral control of a vehicle includes a first processing unit configured to control a steering torque intervention by establishing a steering angle with a stationary control accuracy of an electrically supported steering system. A second processing unit is configured to adjust the stationary control accuracy of the steering angle via the output of an accuracy request signal to the first processing unit in such a way that there is a scaling of the control accuracy between a lower and an upper threshold value. The second processing unit includes a control unit having an integrator with an input and an output, wherein the output of the integrator is connected to the input in a closed-loop manner with a weighting dependent on the accuracy request signal.

  • Publication number: 20220250678
    Abstract: A regulating device for regulating the steering angle of a vehicle includes a first controller unit having at least one integrating component and configured to receive a control difference between first steering angle information, which is deduced from nominal steering angle information, and an actual steering angle. The first controller unit provides actuation information for a motor operating the steering. A compensation control circuit superposed on the first controller unit is provided. The compensation control circuit has a feedback path receives actuation information of the motor, the output torque of the motor, and/or information dependent on the output torque of the motor as the input variable and, based on the input variable, provides steering angle compensation information.

  • Patent number: 11163068
    Abstract: A method of detecting and mitigating Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) spoofing events may comprise determining a first vehicle state based on an Inertial Navigation System (INS) without GNSS input, determining a second vehicle state based on an INS with GNSS input, and comparing the first vehicle states. When a difference between the vehicle states exceeds a predetermined threshold, the method concludes that GNSS spoofing is present, and utilizes only the first vehicle state as a correct vehicle state. The method may further implement at least one state processing path, comprising consecutive processing runs based on INS sensors. The method may further comprise reevaluating the vehicle state processing path, when the difference between the first vehicle state and the second vehicle state exceeds a threshold, to extricate a GNSS component from the processing path to at least a predetermined amount of time prior to when the GNSS spoofing was detected.
