Abstract: A fault monitoring and management method that collects readings from hardware components and software functions to deduce the source of a system failure by utilizing a system representation method based on directed graphs. The presented method utilizes a system description that establishes absolute dependence, which means that the failure of a component leads to certain failure of the successor components that depend on the output of the failed component, between system or process elements. The change in the system behaviour upon the failure of each system element is automatically determined by algorithms that process the graph depiction of the system architecture.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention includes a step of transmitting an OFDM waveform including several frequency carrier signals transmitted simultaneously, the frequency carrier signals being coded in order to improve the Doppler response. An embodiment of the invention includes a step of receiving the echoed waveform from the target. The initial phase of each frequency carrier signal is recovered from the echoed waveform. The recovered initial phase of each frequency carrier signal is cyclically shifted in order to compensate for the Doppler effect and subsequently decoded. A compressed pulse is synthesized from the decoded initial phases.
