Abstract: The present invention provides a motor controller
capable of driving a synchronous motor having no position sensor
stably at high efficiency by carrying out simple control. In
order to attain this purpose, a reactive current is obtained
from a motor current and a rotation phase, an error voltage is
obtained from the reactive current and the command value of the
reactive current, thereby obtaining a motor applied voltage
command value Va that is used to compensate for the V/f
characteristic of the motor. Furthermore, the motor applied
voltage command value Va is applied to an output command computing
section, and computed with the rotation phase signal of a wave
generation section, thereby obtaining a signal for PWM driving
the switching devices of an inverter circuit.

IPC: G06Q40/00

Abstract: A method and apparatus system for managing virtual mutual funds. A plurality of investment managers manage a plurality of accounts for a plurality of investors. The investors directly hold assets in the accounts so that the investors may take advantage of any tax benefits generated by transactions using the assets in the accounts. An investor may have one or more accounts and thus one or more managers. A manager may have one or more investors and thus one or more accounts to manage. A virtual mutual fund manager uses a holdings matrix and a lot matrix to track the asset lots in the accounts. When a manager wishes to make a trade affecting an investor, the virtual mutual fund manager determines which asset lots held by the investor should be used to execute the trade. Optionally, each investor may be associated with a tax-managed account. The tax-managed account is used by the virtual fund manager to make deferred 'paper' trades thereby avoiding certain adverse tax consequences that may be created when an investor has multiple managers. Optionally, each investor may allow loss-harvesting trades to be executed on his or her behalf in circumstances where such trades may reduce the investor's tax obligations.

Abstract: A digital signal processor such as a watermark detector (12-18) operating with integer arithmetic circuits has a certain accuracy. Each processing step (multiplication, addition) increases the number of bits (the word length). For example, the Fast Fourier Transform (12) having a butterfly structure requires a plurality of such processing steps to be performed. In practical implementations, the processing steps are recursively performed by a single integer arithmetic circuit having a given word length, say N. After each step, the word length of the signal is reduced to the given word length N by rounding, truncation, or some other smart form of quantization. In order to prevent quantization errors, the signal is pre-processed by a pre-processor (19) which reduces the word length and which is invariant with respect to the subsequent process. This means that if the pre-processor operated with infinite accuracy, it would have no effect on the subsequent process. If such a pre-processor operates with finite accuracy, it will reduce the quantization noise.
