Abstract: The invention relates to a method for increasing the sensitivity of a chain of amplifiers that comprises the steps of amplifying a signal by means of a first amplifier with a gain factor A1=A1,m*DeltaA1, where A1,m denotes a constant gain factor and A1 denotes a gain factor variation with 1<=A1,min<=A1<=A1,max, further amplifying the signal by means of a second amplifier with a controllable gain factor A2<=A2,max, where variations A1 of the gain of the first amplifier are compensated by reducing the gain A2 of the second amplifier, so that the difference between the chain gain factor AC=A1*A2 and a target chain gain factor AT<=AT,max becomes zero. To solve the object of the invention to provide a method for increasing the sensitivity of a chain of amplifiers that suffers from gain factor variations, it is proposed that that the signal at the output of the second amplifier is additionally fed into a divider that applies a fixed factor A3<=1 to its input, that variations A1 of the gain factor A1 of the first amplifier as well as the fixed factor A3 are at least partially compensated by the gain factor A2 of the second amplifier, so that the difference between the chain gain factor AC'=A1*A2*A3 and the target chain gain factor AT becomes minimum, and that the fixed factor A3 is chosen so that there exist at least some combinations of values A1 and AT for which said difference can be forced to zero, and some combinations of values A1 and AT, for which said difference can no longer be forced to zero due to the limitation A2<=A2,max. The invention further relates to a device for increasing the sensitivity of a chain of amplifiers.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de freinage électrohydraulique (10) qui comporte un frein auxiliaire actionné par la force musculaire et un frein de service actionné par une force extérieure. Pour passer du mode frein de service au mode frein auxiliaire, un tel système de freinage (10) comporte des soupapes de changement de mode de fonctionnement (12, 13) qui peuvent être commandées par un dispositif de commande (24) électronique. En outre, pour la simulation de la course de pédale en mode frein de service, le système de freinage (10), dans lequel une liaison de conduite de fluide sous pression reliant un cylindre de freinage principal (14) à un frein de roue (22) est interrompue par lesdites soupapes de changement de mode de fonctionnement (12, 13), comporte une unité piston/cylindre (56). Cette unité piston/cylindre reçoit le volume de fluide sous pression déplacé, dans le cylindre de frein principal (14), par l'actionnement de la pédale de freinage (18). Cette unité piston/cylindre (56) peut être fermée hydrauliquement quand le système de freinage (10) fonctionne en mode frein auxiliaire, cela pour que le volume de fluide sous pression déplacé dans le cylindre de frein principal (14) reste disponible au maximum pour la montée en pression au niveau des freins de roue (22). Pour qu'il soit possible de surveiller la fermeture de l'unité piston/cylindre (56) en mode frein de service, et, simultanément, d'avoir un système de freinage qui soit particulièrement compact et d'une réalisation bon marché, il est proposé, selon l'invention, que la sollicitation de l'unité piston/cylindre (56) par du fluide sous pression soit commandée par l'intermédiaire d'une des soupapes de changement de mode (12).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un terminal mobile qui fait une estimation de temps GPS. Ce terminal mobile comprend un récepteur cellulaire, un récepteur GPS, et un processeur. Le récepteur cellulaire est conçu pour recevoir des signaux de communication provenant de cellules dans un système de communication sans fil. Le récepteur GPS reçoit des signaux GPS et détermine une référence de temps GPS à partir de ceux-ci. Le processeur fait une estimation d'une référence de temps de cellule à partir des signaux de communication reçus, et génère des données de synchronisation cellule-GPS qui représentent un décalage temporel entre la référence de temps de cellule et la référence de temps GPS. Le processeur fait ensuite une estimation du temps GPS en fonction d'une partie indiquant le temps d'un signal de communication reçu et des données de synchronisation cellule-GPS. Le temps GPS estimé peut être utilisé par le récepteur GPS pour l'acquisition de signaux GPS.
