Inventor: MCCRADY DENNIS D
IPC: G01S19/11
Filed: 2002-08-15
Abstract: The position of a non-cooperating emitter is determined by detecting a signal from the
emitter at three or more receiver communication devices positioned at different locations.
The receiver communication devices determine respective detection times of the emitted
signal in respective local time reference frames. To establish a common time reference frame
for the emitted signal detections, each receiver communication device exchanges time
synchronization signals with a reference communication device. Since any of the receiver
communication devices and the reference communication device may be mobile, the signal
exchange allows each receiver communication device to accurately determine the signal
propagation time between itself and the reference communication device and factor the signal
propagation time into an accurate adjustment of the local time reference frame. Using
trilateration, the position of the emitter is determined from known positions of the receiver
communication devices and the emitted signal detection times from the receiver
communication devices.

Abstract: An implantable dual-chamber implantable stimulation device is
used in conjunction with an external programmer to perform a capture
verification procedure and then to generate a capture verification record
indicative of instances where pacing pulses delivered by the implantable
stimulation device have achieved capture and instances where the pacing
pulses have not achieved capture. The capture verification record may
also include data indicative of other cardiac and pacing events. The
capture verification record is visually displayed to a medical practitioner
for review and analysis. Optionally, a pacing threshold assessment test
may be initiated from the programmer to determine an appropriate pacing
threshold for the implantable stimulation device. A pacing threshold
assessment record representative of the results of the assessment test is
then generated and visually presented to the medical practitioner for
review and analysis.

Inventor: HEYDARI FEREIDOON
IPC: G11B21/10
Filed: 2002-05-31
Abstract: A new technique for Hard Disk Drive (HDD) servo-burst demodulation is
provided. A 4-samples per dibit Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) amplitude estimation
is used to calculate the read-head servo-position error signal. Comparatively, the
conventional method of burst demodulation ― called burst integration ― typically uses
more than 8 samples/dibit. Consequently, the new 4-samples/dibit DFT
burst-demodulation scheme requires fewer samples per dibit than does burst
integration, thus reducing the disk space occupied by the burst data while increasing the
performance as compared to burst integration. Furthermore, the DFT scheme does not
require the samples to be synchronized to any particular points of the servo burst, and
can include an averaging algorithm that further improves performance for a given Signal
to Noise Ratio (SNR). Moreover, the same sample-clocking circuit that detects the Gray
Code servo information can also implement the DFT burst-demodulation scheme to
demodulate the servo burst.

common FreeBSD operating system supports a dynamic routing protocol (DRP)
application 23, 25. Each v-net runs an independent copy of the DRP software and is
logically independent. A failure in one DRP copy does not adversely affect other copies.
