Title: Mapping an enhanced physical downlink control channel
Inventor: XIAOGANG CHEN
IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 2011-12-20
Abstract: LTE (long term evolution) air interface frames include a PDCCH (physical downlink control channel) for signalling. The next generation system LTE-A (LTE advanced) requires more signalling and more flexibility, hence the ePDCCH (extended/enhanced PDCCH) which will be mapped to the frame regions typically used for the PDSCH (physical downlink shared channel). The signalling for one UE (user equipment) can comprise one or more CCEs (control channel element). The invention proposes mapping the ePDCCH to either contiguous PRBs (physical resource blocks) 402/404 for frequency selectivity for static UEs or distributed PRBs for frequency diversity for mobile UEs 406/408. The invention proposes that the ePDCCH be mapped to distributed REs (resource elements) within a PRB with no adjacent REs assigned to a REG (RE group) [See Fig. 5].

Title: Control system and method of controlling a driveline
Inventor: ROB JERGER
IPC: B60W30/18
Filed: 2015-12-11
Abstract: A motor vehicle driveline control system configured to receive an environmental indication of the vehicle surroundings, determine from the environmental indication if there is a need to pre-emptively brake the vehicle, switching the vehicle from a two wheel drive mode (2WD) to a four wheel drive mode (4WD) if there is a need to pre-emptively brake the vehicle. The environmental indicator may indicate the presence of traffic lights ahead of the vehicle and may also indicate their state. The environmental indicator may indicate a speed limit or traffic ahead of the vehicle as well as its density or speed. The environmental indicator may be received from a camera, a radar module or a data link to the vehicle. The control system may additionally use map data alongside the environmental indicator to determine if there is a need to pre-emptively brake the vehicle. The control system may determine if there is a need to brake the vehicle based on the acceleration of the vehicle, gradient of the road, coefficient of friction between the wheels and road or the selection of driving mode the vehicle is operating in.

Title: Firewall for securing access to vehicle networks
Inventor: KENNETH WILLIAM TINDELL
IPC: H04L29/02
Filed: 2016-03-15
Abstract: A configurable vehicle firewall device filters traffic or data packets sent between the main vehicle bus of the vehicle 4 (the inside bus) and a potentially insecure bus 2 (the outside bus). The device may have a hardware interlock to control the filtering of messages based on the vehicles physical state (such as a physical key being turned in a lock to a particular position). The device may be embedded in an electronic control units (ECUs) 5 cable harness. The device may be configured by uploading rules into a firewall table which are stored in stable memory. The rules may determine the filtering of messages based on a message identifier, a message payload, or the real-time arrival pattern of a message. The device and rules can be authenticated using encryption and decryption. The firewall allows legitimate access to the internet 1 but aims to prevent any attack on the ECUs which may cause the vehicle to malfunction.

Title: Novel 25KV pantograph control circuit
Inventor: JIANYING LIANG
IPC: B60L5/28
Filed: 2015-10-29
Abstract: A novel 25KV pantograph control circuit, comprising two groups of sub-control circuits, each group of the sub-control circuits being used for controlling the uprising and descending of a group of pantographs, wherein each group of sub-control circuits comprises a pantograph uprising valve (PUV), a pantograph uprising relay (KAPU), an interlock relay (KAPI),a pantograph descending relay (KAPDW1), a high-voltage isolation attracting electromagnetic valve (PDCV) and a high-voltage isolation relay. When an instruction is input at a pantograph descending instruction input end, the third group of normally closed contacts of the KAPDW1 are disconnected, and thus, the PDCV loses power, so that coils of the high-voltage isolation relay lose power; and the normally open contacts thereof which are connected between the PUV and the KAPU are disconnected, and thus, the PUV loses power, and the corresponding pantograph finally descends. In the present invention, a corresponding pantograph automatically descends as long as an instruction is input at the pantograph descending instruction input end.
