Title: Aiding beam identification in a satellite system
Inventor: ANDERSON JON JAMES
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 2002-10-23
Abstract: A system and method for determining timing offset errors in a satellite system based upon Doppler and Doppler rate of change is provided. A user terminal (110, 113) determines first and second timing offsets (902, 906) respectively associated with first and second satellite beams (1142, 1204) from respective first and second satellites (102, 104). Next, the user terminal (110, 113) determines the Doppler and Doppler rate of change associated with the first and second satellite beams (1100, 1102). A timing offset is estimated from the measured Doppler and Doppler rate of change and is then compared with the user terminal's own determined timing offset (906). If the comparison does not produce a value within a predetermined threshold, a beam identification error is declared.

synchronization hold section (6). A control section (7)
executes a positioning operation using the obtained range data
and the like, finds and outputs positioning information
indicative of a current position. Thereafter, the switch (23)

Abstract: L'invention concerne un porte-fraise réglable facilitant le contrôle de l'instrument par le chirurgien. Ce dispositif est facile à démonter aux fins de nettoyage. Il comporte une poignée susceptible d'être repositionnée, un anneau de verrouillage et une pièce élastique qui exerce une contrainte sur un mécanisme de verrouillage de poignée verrouillant la poignée sous différentes positions angulaires par rapport à un axe du porte-fraise. La pièce élastique en question exerce aussi une contrainte sur l'anneau de verrouillage, pour le mettre en position verrouillée. Cet anneau contribue à la tenue de l'ensemble. Le retrait de l'anneau, alors soustrait à la contrainte élastique de ladite pièce élastique, a pour effet de libérer une extrémité de l'ensemble pour faciliter le démontage et/ou le nettoyage. Le réglage de la position de la poignée par rapport au porte-fraise permet de modifier la place de la paume/l'emprise de chaque main, assurant un contrôle optimal sous différentes orientations. Ce réglage est souhaitable en fonction du choix de la position par rapport au patient, à sa gauche ou à sa droite, debout derrière ou devant lui, ou en fonction du choix de telle ou telle approche chirurgicale, mais aussi parce qu'il est important de tenir compte des différences entre chirurgiens gauchers ou droitiers naturels.
