  • Patent number: 12227084
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a traveling motor, a traveling battery that drives at least one wheel, a low-voltage electric component, at least one processor, and a storage medium. The traveling battery includes battery modules each including battery cells and supplies electric power to the traveling motor. The low-voltage electric component operates at a voltage lower than an output voltage of the traveling battery. The storage medium stores a program to be executed by the processor. The program includes at least one command that causes the processor to perform a state-of-health (SOH) calculation process of calculating the SOH of the battery modules, and a selection process of selecting a low-voltage power feeder module from the battery modules based on the SOH calculated in the SOH calculation process. The low-voltage power feeder module corresponds to one of the battery modules to be used to supply electric power to the low-voltage electric component.

  • Patent number: 5512899
    Abstract: An active reflector including an antenna, a frequency converter, and a delay circuit is placed at a location within an area to be detected by a synthetic aperture radar. The active reflector receives an incoming radio wave emitted by the synthetic aperture radar and changes its frequency or delay time. The resultant radio wave is transmitted as a reflected radio wave toward the synthetic aperture radar. As a result, the position of the active reflector image displayed on the screen of the synthetic aperture radar is shifted. The ambiguity is quantitatively detected from the pixel value at the original display position at which the active reflector image was displayed before it was shifted, thereby evaluating the image quality of the synthetic aperture radar.
