Title: On-board unit for determining the route taken by a vehicle without the use of a global navigation satellite system for positioning
Inventor: HARRIS PHILIP J
IPC: C07C37/86
Filed: 2010-01-19
Abstract: An on-board unit for a vehicle is arranged to determine the changes in position of the vehicle and thus its route taken. The on-board unit comprises a map database containing constraint information that describes possible vehicle routes, an inertial measurement unit, and a data processor. The data processor is arranged to process the output of the inertial measurement unit combined with relevant positional and motion constraints from the map database, and from these determine the actual route that has been taken by the vehicle. The unit may be arranged to receive GSM communications indicative of the coarse position of the on-board unit relative to known GSM transmitter locations. The unit is arranged to determine the route taken by the vehicle without the use of a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) for positioning, and may therefore be less vulnerable to jamming, blockage, and spoofing.

Title: Magnetron with high gfrequency cathode heater power supply
Inventor: RICHARDSON ROBERT
IPC: H01J23/05
Filed: 2010-03-26
Abstract: A magnetron has an anode 1 (fig. 1) and a cathode indicated generally by the reference numeral 2 (fig, 1). The cathode assembly includes core 8 and outer sleeve 7 (fig. 1) which carry current to heater filament 9 (fig. 1.). Parts 7 and 8 are joined by sleeves 11 and 12 (fig. 1) of a nickel cobalt ferrous alloy spaced by an insulating sleeve 13 (fig. 1) of a ceramic material. Previously, a mains isolation transformer 14 was used to heat the filament 15. In accordance with the invention, a high frequency power supply of smaller bulk is used. As shown in fig.2, sleeves 11 (and 12) encircle cathode core conductor 8. Currents i (fig.2) are induced in the sleeves 11 and 12 by the magnetic field generated by the high frequency current in core 8, which here is not surrounded by outer sleeve 7. In accordance with the invention, the sleeves 11 and 12 are provided with a surface coating of conductive material 15 (fig.2), e.g. copper or silver. Induced currents are largely confined to the conductive coating due to the skin effect, avoiding losses in and heating of the ferrous alloy itself. The heater supply may operate in the frequency range 1 kHz to 1 MHz; the conductive coating may have a thickness of 1 to 50 micron (micro-metre).

Title: Calibration of accelerometer
Inventor: KOENIG MICHAEL
IPC: G01C25/00
Filed: 2010-09-20
Abstract: Methods for calibrating an accelerometer without needing to use external assistance signals, such as GNSS signals. The invention is applicable to accelerometers generally - in both GPS navigation devices and other devices. A method of calibrating an accelerometer, the accelerometer having a bias, comprises: rotating the accelerometer, wherein the orientation of the axis of the accelerometer changes with respect to the local gravity vector; collecting accelerometer measurements as the accelerometer is moving; and calculating the bias and/or scale factor; wherein the accelerometer measurements are primarily due to local gravity. Furthermore, some embodiments of the present invention include a self-calibration process —a process that does not engage the user's attention. For example, in a self-calibration process for an accelerometer in a cell phone the moving step may be the movement of the phone out of a user's pocket to hold it up to view the screen.
