Abstract: A method for initial alignment of an inertial navigation apparatus, comprising the following steps: providing an apparatus loaded with a sensor, and preprocessing the sensor; carrying out relative alignment to calculate an installation error angle of the sensor; carrying out absolute alignment to calculate an installation attitude angle error of the sensor to increase an accuracy of an error attitude angle calculated during the relative alignment. The relative alignment process calculates a relative error attitude angle, the relative error attitude angle being used as the initial value for attitude error in a stat vector in the absolute alignment process, thereby accelerating convergence of the Kalman filter. Alignment precision is further enhanced by the absolute alignment process.

Abstract: A fan apparency arrangement for an appliance is disclosed. The fan apparency arrangement includes a chamber having a port; a fan in the chamber for moving air out of the chamber, the fan having a discharge end, and an intake end having an intake tube; and a sail switch disposed in the intake tube. When activated, the fan moves air out of the chamber through the port and creates a pressure difference between opposite ends of the intake tube, the pressure difference causing the sail switch to change position and signal that the fan is activated. An appliance incorporating such a fan apparency arrangement is also disclosed.

Abstract: Alternative routing schemes in high-speed networks ensure fault tolerance in the event of a link failure. An heuristic algorithm, based on maximal-flow algorithm, is first used to partition the network into parts: one part carries regular or primary traffic and another part is reserved to carry re-routed traffic in the event of a link failure. The result of applying the algorithm is used to find alternative routes for a given call at the time of call setup. The scheme can be modified to accommodate hop-court limitations and loop avoidance.

Abstract: A multi-class connection admission control (CAC) method that supports cell loss and delay requirements. In this model-based CAC, the source traffic is described in terms of the usage parameter control (UPC) parameters. Through analysis and approximations, simple closed-form methods to calculate the bandwidth required to meet guarantees on quality of service (QoS) are used. In addition to being robust, the CAC achieves a high level of resource utilization and can be easily implemented for real-time admission control.
