Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a mobile receiver for determining a position of a mobile receiver RX, which moves in an unknown but at least quasi-stationary environment, on the basis of signals s(kT) which are emitted by a transmitter TX positioned at an unknown position and immobile in the environment, wherein the receiver RX receives as reception signal q ? ( k , ? ) = ? i = 0 N ? ( k ) - 1 ? S i ? ( ? ) a signal s(kT) which is emitted by the transmitter TX and which is transmitted via N(k) transmission paths as signal components si(?), where k:=time step, ?:=time delay, and i=0, . . .

Abstract: A physical layer device provides for synchronization of clocks in a communication network. A place holder for an alignment marker is inserted into a frame to be transmitted. Once the placeholder alignment marker is inserted into the frame, no additional data is added to the frame. Transmission of the frame including the placeholder alignment marker may also be delayed to allow data processing in subsequent blocks within a transmit block to complete prior to further processing of the frame including the placeholder alignment marker (e.g., timestamping, MACSec, etc.) to improve timing accuracy with a multi lane distribution environment.

Abstract: A dashpot featuring amplitude-dependent shock absorption, especially intended for the wheel of a vehicle and including a hydraulically parallel cylindrical pressure-compensation chamber (8). The pressure-compensation chamber is partitioned by an axially displaceable floating piston (10). At least one face (25) of the floating piston is provided with a resilient bumper (18). The object is a dashpot with a floating piston that arrives more gently at its limit inside the pressure-compensation chamber (8). The bumper is accordingly accommodated in an axial hollow (17) that extends through the body (15) of the floating piston.

Abstract: A process and a device for accelerated execution of a program by a stored-program controller (SPC) on a machine. The machine has actuators actuated by the SPC to perform machine actions and sensors to output machine status signals. According to the process, the subsequent actuator action is triggered independently of whether the machine action caused by the previous actuator triggering has been completed. For this purpose, a status evaluation device is connected between the SPC and the machine, which receives the actuator triggering signals and the status signals output by the machine, and which generates therefrom an acknowledge signal indicating the completion of a machine action caused by actuator triggering; the acknowledge signal is supplied to the SPC as feedback signals describing the machine.

Abstract: A data processing system which includes a processor having a processor memory and a mechanism for specifying an address that corresponds to a processor-requested data block located within another memory to be accessed by the processor. A hierarchical memory system is provided, which includes a cache and a long-term storage. An address of a requested data block is translated to a second addressing scheme, and is meshed, so that proximate data blocks are placed on different physical target disks within the long-term storage. A user-configuration mechanism is provided, which allows the user to define one or more user-configurable parameters which will control the access to the cache, and the transfer of data between the processor and the cache and between the cache and the long-term storage.

Abstract: A panel element for insulating acoustically undesirable vibrations is disclosed. The panel element comprises a closed-cell foam element for closing off a hollow body provided with an opening on at least one side. The foam element possesses a mounting structure by which it can be fastened to the hollow body. The foam element is configured to the shape of the opening, and has on its perimeter a mounting structure. The mounting structure consists of a self-contained peripheral groove open in the direction of the boundary. The groove and the boundary can be brought into engagement with one another in a sealing and positive manner.
