Patent CA-2788866-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FRIEDLI PAUL
IPC: B66B5/00
Filed: 2011-06-28
Abstract: An elevator access control system monitors a secure area (12) including an elevator landing (6) and controls an elevator system with at least one elevator car (4) that is accessible from the elevator landing (6). Each elevator car (4) of the elevator system has a door (26) at the landing (6) that provides access between the elevator car (4) and the landing (6). The system includes an access monitoring device (14) that detects the presence of non-authorized individuals within the secure area (12) and produces a breach signal upon detecting one or more non-authorized individuals within or entering the secure area (12). Upon receiving the breach signal, an access system controller (22) in communication with the access monitoring device (14) initiates a security alert phase. For each elevator car(4) with an open door status during the security alert phase, the system prevents user control of the elevator car (4) and holds the respective doors (26) open for a remainder of the security alert phase.

IPC: G01H17/00
Filed: 2012-12-20
Abstract: In an adaptive phase discovery system a first audio signal is received via a first microphone and a second signal is received via a second microphone. Corresponding audio frames of the first and second signals are each transformed into the frequency domain and a plurality of frequency sub-bands are generated. A phase is determined for each frequency sub-band in each signal. Instantaneous phase differences are determined between the signals at each of the frequency sub-bands. Lower frequency instantaneous phase differences are filtered over time to determine current phase differences at lower frequencies. When SNR is high in lower frequency sub-bands, lower frequency sub-band phase differences are tracked to the higher frequency sub-bands. The tracked higher frequency phase differences are filtered over time to determine phase differences for the current frame. The phase differences may be used to rotate phases in each sub-band and sum signals and/or to reject off-axis signals.
