Title: Method of operation for a vision-based occupant sensing system
Inventor: FULTZ WILLIAM W
IPC: G06V10/141
Filed: 2006-04-28
Abstract: Image processing parameters of an imaging chip (20b) in a vision-based occupant sensing system (VS) are adjusted for each frame based on ambient illumination responsive information obtained in the idle period preceding that frame (36, 42). The same sensing data is also used to determine if active illumination is needed to supplement existent ambient illumination during the ensuing image acquisition interval (38). The inter-frame ambient illumination is detected with an external light sensor (24) or with selected pixels of the imaging chip (20b), and the information is used to calculate and set the gain and integration time (42) of the imaging chip (20b). In applications where the resolution of the imaging chip (20b) significantly exceeds the resolution required for occupant sensing, intensity data from one or more otherwise inactive pixels (28) is averaged with the intensity data from the normally active pixels (26) to adapt the sensitivity of the imaging chip (20b) to changing ambient illumination.

IPC: H04B7/26

Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for facilitating the timing (e.g., the known relative timing differences) of base stations (Bss) (BS1, BS, & BS3) in asynchronous CDMA mobile communications systems (200). A plurality of mobile stations (MSs) (MS1,MS2, & MS3) measure the relative time differences between various pairs of BSs, and these measurements are stored by the BSs. A source BS sends (106) to an MS, in a neighbor list message, estimates of the relative time difference between the source BS and each of the BSs on the neighboring cell list. Each BS on the list can maintain a relative time difference estimate table, which can be updated continuously from the reports received from MSs. Subsequently, the BSs can send entries from this table to the MS in the neighbor list message. Using this novel technique, the BSs have known relative timing differences. Consequently, when the MS initiates a cell-search for a candidate BS, the MS already has an estimate of the timing of that BS as compared to its source BS. As such, the resulting cell-search procedure has a lower level of complexity and thus can be accomplished much quicker than with prior procedures. In addition, the relative time difference estimates can be compared with corresponding time differences that are measured by a second mobile station. Based on this comparison, the propagation delays of signals between the second MS and various BSs can be calculated to determine the position of the second MS.
