Abstract: Techniques are provided herein for reducing vibrations in various modes of a dynamic system. One such technique comprises incorporating vibration limiting and sensitivity constraints into a partial fraction expansion equation model of the system so as to reduce vibrations to specific levels. Another technique comprises shaping a command determined using the partial fraction expansion equation model to produce a desired output. The entire command may be shaped or only selected portions thereof which produce vibrations. Another technique involves commanding in current to produce saturation in voltage. By doing this, it is possible to command voltage switches. The times at which the switches occur can be set to reduce system vibrations. Other techniques are also provided. These include varying transient portions at the beginning, middle and/or end of a move and using Posicast inputs, among others.

Abstract: A police radar and laser detector with networking capability is disclosed. By including the ability to wirelessly transmit the existence or even location of a detected radar or laser source, overall performance can be improved. Transmission of an actual radar or laser location gives other detectors advanced warning. Additionally, transmission of false alarm locations will allow other detectors to reduce false alarms.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention a method and apparatus are disclosed in which each data stream of a plurality of data streams is assigned to a queue and each queue is allocated a predetermined maximum numbers of buffers. Once the queue has exhausted its supply of buffers, the data from the corresponding data stream is discarded until buffers are refreshed thereby allowing the remaining data streams to operate in a normal fashion. Accordingly, excessive buffer usage by an individual data stream is prevented, as well as excessive demand of other related system resources such as CPU time. The data stream which has had its data discarded will begin having its incoming data processed upon the next refresh operation providing the queue associated with that data stream has had additional buffers allocated. The discarded data is lost and is not recovered. The refresh operation is performed in a manner that provides prioritization of the queues and a high degree of fairness within each priority level.
