Abstract: There is provided a vacant channel searching method for
use in a wireless communication system, capable of finding a
optimum vacant channel which is under least influence of the
disturbance by taking also into account the periodicity and burst
properties of disturbance waves. The short-term fluctuation
(short cycle T1) of disturbance waves is observed over each
observation interval length T2. Through repetitive observations
up to a repetition number N, the long-term fluctuation (long cycle
T3) of the disturbance waves is observed. As a result, constant
observations of disturbance generation are realized in such a
manner as to account for the periodicity and burst properties of
the disturbance waves. By determining a channel which is under
least influence of the disturbance based on the results of such
observations, it becomes possible to find an optimum vacant
channel.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de transmission de force de freinage destiné à un système d'assistance de freinage, qui comprend un élément de réaction élastique (7), un organe d'entrée (22) ayant une surface active associée (d3) et un organe de sortie (24) ayant une surface active associée (d4) et qui présente un premier rapport de démultiplication défini par un rapport, en liaison active avec l'élément de réaction (7), des surfaces actives. L'invention vise à fournir des moyens, à structure simple et agencés si possible sous la forme d'un bloc, qui assistent le conducteur du véhicule automobile de manière plus importante lorsque des puissances de freinage élevées sont demandées. A cet effet, le dispositif selon l'invention comprend des moyens (2,4, 6,11) qui, à partir d'une pression définie dans l'élément de réaction (7), réduisent d'une proportion définie la force de réaction induite dans l'organe d'entrée (22). Ainsi, une assistance supplémentaire est fournie au conducteur qui a besoin d'une augmentation de la force d'entrée relativement faible pour une nouvelle augmentation de la force de sortie. Après l'augmentation en échelon du rapport de l'amplification, le conducteur peut ainsi mieux doser les forces de freinage plus élevées nécessaires.
