Abstract: The purpose of this invention is to sense the presence of a seated occupant in a vehicle such as an automobile, plane, train or bus, or in a room or location where it is desirable to detect if seats are occupied. The occupant presence detection device consists of a single seat-mounted electrode, an oscillator circuit, a bridge circuit, a detection circuit and a circuit for processing the detected signals. The oscillator circuit excites the electrode. If an occupant is present on the seat, additional capacitance from the human body is introduced into the bridge via the electrode. This created differences in the voltage and phase of the waveform in each arm of the bridge circuit which are amplified by a differential amplifier. The signal is then converted to a DC voltage that, when above a predetermined threshold, causes the device to outputs a signal that indicates the presence of an occupant. Using a bridge configuration and a differential amplifier allows the circuit to be operated over a wide range of supply voltages. It also reduces the need for high precision components and the need to regulate the amplitude of the waveform produced by the oscillator. The net result is a capacitive occupant sensing device that is less complex and less expensive that previous capacitive occupant sensing devices, yet is tolerant of power supply fluctuations, is able to function over a wide range of operating voltage and still provides failsafe functionality.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé destiné à localiser un défaut dans une section d'une ligne de transmission au moyen de mesures de courant de tension et d'angles entre les phases au niveau d'une première (A) et une seconde (B) extrémité de cette section. L'invention est caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend les étapes consistant à calculer, après la survenue d'un défaut le long d'une section, une distance (dA, dB) jusqu'à un défaut en fonction d'un courant de défaut mesuré au niveau d'une des première et seconde extrémités et des tensions de phase mesurées au niveau à la fois de la première et de la seconde extrémité (A, B), la distance de défaut étant calculée à partir de l'extrémité (A ou B) où le courant de défaut est mesuré. L'invention est particulièrement utile lorsqu'un transformateur de courant d'une des extrémités (A, B) est saturé. Si tel est le cas, une distance (d) jusqu'au défaut est calculée en fonction d'un courant de défaut mesuré au niveau de l'extrémité non affectée et des tensions de phase mesurées au niveau de l'extrémité affectée et de l'extrémité non affectée.
