Inventor: STAUFFER HANS FRED
IPC: C10L5/40
Filed: 1991-04-25
Abstract: The mixed material composed of sewage sludge and waste wood is composted in a plurality of process steps. For this purpose, the material is placed in a long container (10) and, during the composting process, is regularly mixed and broken up, slowly moved along the container (10) and the compost discharged from the container (10) by means of a conveyor machine (19). In this case, each particle of the composting material (21) is moved through a plurality of zones (13) of the container (10), at the same time the composting material (21) being aerated at intervals from the base (12). During this, a roughly stable heat and oxygen layering is formed in each zone (13) in the composting material (21) with an aerobic microorganism population, the temperature (T) of the composting material (21) preferably changing along the container (10). This controlled aerobic fermentation and possible ripening has the purpose of achieving the composting of each particle of the material (21) within an expedient residence time in the container (10) of 18 to 24 days. The compost produced is stabilised, odour-free and dry, has the appearance of soil and has a structure like peat; the end product is usable as a fuel for furnaces. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A frequency tracking arrangement comprises an input (30) to a frequency translation means (32) whose output is coupled to a filter and demodulator (34) which has both frequency (36), and amplitude (38) outputs. The frequency output is fed via a low pass filter (42) to a variable gain stage (44). The output of the gain stage (44) is fed to a feedback input of the frequency translation means (32). The amplitude output (38) of the filter and demodulator is fed to a control input of the variable gain stage (44). The amplitude output of the filter and demodulator is used to vary the amplitude of the feedback signal in the frequency tracking loop. When the arrangement is used in an FM radio receiver for audio, as the input signal weakens the frequency translation means (32) stops attempting to track the incoming signal. The subjective effect is that as the output signal amplitude diminishes relative to the noise, the receiver is less likely to search adjacent frequency bands and lock on to unwanted signals.

Abstract: A tracking system employing global positioning system (GPS) satellites provides extremely accurate position, velocity, and time information for vehicles or any other animate or inanimate object within any mobile radio communication system or information system, including those operating in high rise urban areas. The tracking system includes a sensor mounted on each object, a communication link, a workstation, and a GPS reference receiver. The sensor operates autonomously following intialization by an external network management facility to sequence through the visible GPS satellites, making pseudo range and delta range or time difference and frequency difference measurements. No navigation functions are performed by the sensor, thereby permitting significant reductions in the cost thereof. The raw satellite measurements, with relevant timing and status information, are provided to the communication link to be relayed periodically back to the workstation. Differential corrections may also be provided at the workstation to increase the accuracy of the object location determination. In normal operation, three satellite measurements are required to compute the location of the object, but for a short time period a minimum of two satellite measurements are acceptable with time, altitude, and map aiding information being provided by the workstation.

Abstract: A LCD vertical scrolling mechanism automatically tracks addresses of information scrolled on a LCD (30). A counter (12) is initialized to a value latched in a vector register when a frame signal is received. Subsequent BPCLK signals step the adder through a series of values. These values are relayed through two bus selectors (18, 22) to segment drivers (34) for the LCD. One of the bus selectors (22) is coupled to the counter in parallel with a subtracter (20). When a value from the counter exceeds a predetermined value equal to the MUX of the LCD, the subtracter takes the difference between the predetermined MUX value and the value received from the counter and directs the parallel bus selector to relay the difference to the RAM of a segment driver. An adder (16) is coupled to the other bus selector (18) and to the vector register (26). When the MCU (42) needs to fetch information from the segment drivers, the MCU relays a LCD address where the information is displayed, to the adder. The adder adds the address (a value) to the value latched in the vector register. The MCU directs the second bus selector to select the value determined in the adder and relay this address to the segment driver.

Abstract: A high-speed digital filter with a large dynamic range is constructed by operating two low-resolution filters (545,548) in parallel, which is referred to as an "overlap" mode of operation. In this overlap mode of operation, both low-resolution adaptive filters operate on the input data (a n ) simultaneously, but the characteristics of both filters are controlled so that one filter (545) performs a coarse level of filtering, while the other filter (548) performs a finer level of filtering and also removes any errors introduced by the first filter. Some application examples include echo canceling, equalization, and deghosting filters.

Filed: 1993-12-10
Abstract: 5n7 A clock recovery circuit capable of outputting decision point data without causing any slip of a recovered clock in the case of operation in a continuous mode in a demodulator in which received signals are sampled by a fixed frequency clock to obtain the recovered clock and symbol data are demodulated by using this recovered clock. A shift register stores digital received signals obtained by an A/D conversion of quasi-coherent detection received signals, and a clock phase estimator calculates an estimated phase difference between an output value of a phase generator operated by the fixed frequency clock and a symbol clock of the received signals and outputs timing information and phase information of a decision point for discriminating the data of the received signals. An interpolator inputs the output signal of the clock phase estimator, takes in the digital received signals from the shift register and calculates decision point data by interpolation to output the same. The interpolator operates at the same cycle as the symbol clock on an average.
