Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus used to the measure duty cycle of a clocking waveform utilizing minimal hardware and achieving high accuracy. This invention utilizes digital sampling of the signal to be measured at a rate that can be significantly lower then the clocking frequency of the signal to be measured. It accomplishes broad-band, multi-frequency use by using a time-varying frequency for the sampling clock to make sure that the sampling clock is asynchronous with the frequency of the clocking signal to be measured. The average ratio of the sampled ones (or zeros) as compared to the total number of samples is then computed to derive the measurement of duty cycle.

Abstract: Directionally sensitive motion detectors at the entrances to elevator cars provide a running count of passenger population aboard the cars. Passengers wear portable devices that transmit personal IDs, and a check of IDs of passengers on the elevator along with the total passenger count will determine if each of the passengers exiting the elevator corresponds to an ID authorized to enter a particular floor of the building, or determine if each of the passengers aboard the car corresponds to an ID authorized to make a particular trip (the particular elevator at a particular time). Unauthorized exit may cause an alarm or other events. If any passenger does not have an ID authorized for a secure trip, an announcement urges the unauthorized passenger to leave for some period of time, following which an alarm is sounded and the elevator is prevented from moving. Pairs of motion detectors may provide directional sensitivity, or doppler motion detectors may be used.
