Patent number: 10755490Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for brokering data exchanges between on-board and off-board systems of a vehicle. One method comprises receiving, at a data broker engine, one or more data requests from an origination system, wherein each of the one or more data requests specifies at least one or more of a request type and a target system. Then the data broker engine determines whether the request type is a one-time transmission, a periodic transmission, an event-triggered transmission, or a change-triggered transmission. Following the determination, the data broker engine retrieves data from the target system based on the determined request type and transmits the data to the origination system.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2018Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Raghu Shamasundar, Philip Toews, Srihari Jayathirtha, Kalimulla Khan, Mahesh Sivaratri, Sreenivasan Govindillam K, Robert Brownlee, Richard Snyder

Publication number: 20200177150Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and circuits that prevent energy that would produce a spurious resonance from lumped, distributed or waveguide circuit elements by using for example a low pass filter with a cut-off below the first spurious resonance frequency and bypassing the energy at frequencies at or above the first spurious resonance frequency through a secondary path. This secondary path is high pass in nature, with a cutoff substantially similar to the low pass filter. The two paths are combined at the common output, using a lowpass matching network.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2019Publication date: June 4, 2020Inventor: Richard Snyder

Patent number: 9714874Abstract: By correcting temperature measurements above a surface (such as the ground) for the first-order filtering associated with the thermal inertia of a temperature sensor (such as a thermocouple) that performed the temperature measurements, the heat flux conveyed from the surface by air can be accurately determined without requiring a calibration procedure. Instead, a predefined calibration value may be used. This predefined calibration value may be a function of a size of the temperature sensor and/or a distance between the temperature sensor and the ground. Moreover, the predefined calibration value may have a fixed value for a given size of the temperature sensor. In addition, the measurement of the heat flux conveyed from the surface can be used to accurately determine the residual heat flux that vaporizes water from the surface without a calibration procedure.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2014Date of Patent: July 25, 2017Assignees: The United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture, The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Thomas Michael Shapland, Kyaw Tha Paw U, Richard Snyder, Andrew McElrone
