Patent EP-0848156-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TAKAGI NAOYA
IPC: F02M25/08
Filed: 1997-12-15
Abstract: A fuel vapor feed controlling apparatus is provided for
a lean burn internal combustion engine for suppressing a rich
misfire or a surge when the fuel vapor is fed into the lean burn
internal combustion engine. A purge controlling unit controls a
fuel vapor amount to be fed from a fuel reservoir to the internal
combustion engine in response to an operational condition of the
internal combustion engine. A first compensation unit compensates
for the fuel vapor amount so that an engine revolution speed of
the internal combustion engine may be identical with a target
revolution speed. The purge control unit performs a purge control
on the basis of a compensation value compensated by the first
compensation unit. An air/fuel ratio judging unit judges a shift
from an air/fuel ratio corresponding to a lean burn to an
air/fuel ratio that is richer than the former air/fuel ratio in
the lean burn operation. A fuel restricting unit restricts at
least a purge amount out of the purge amount of fuel vapor
determined by the purge control unit and a fuel amount to be
injected from a fuel injection valve of the internal combustion
engine when the air/fuel ratio judging unit judges that the
air/fuel ratio is to be enriched. A fuel vapor compensation unit
compensates the fuel vapor on the basis of the operational
condition of the internal combustion engine. An injection amount 
changing unit changes the fuel injection amount to the internal
combustion engine on the basis of the compensated fuel vapor
amount. A correction controlling unit increases and decreases the
fuel vapor amount in response to the operational condition after
the injection amount change and controls a fuel injection timing
on an advance side or on a retard side.

Abstract: A system to reduce the acquisition time necessary to access a GPS signal used to
deterrffine the positional coordinates of a user associated with a wireless communications
system. A wireless communications system can provide telephony and data service to mobile
users throughout a large area. The wireless communications system provides transmissions
and reception in a plurality of spotbeams or cells (17, 18, 19) comprising the large area.
Each spotbeam or cell may be very large, up to 1500 km. in diameter for some satellite based
systems, which precludes determining the subscribers precise location from his spotbeam ID
or cell ID alone. With this invention, the wireless network broadcasts to user terminals
within each spotbeam or cell, the GPS ID of all satellites that are visible within the zone
along with Doppler and signal strength estimates for the visible GPS satellites. The user
terminal (20) has a GPS receiver which is capable of receiving the C/A codes from the GPS
satellites. The user terminal uses the broadcast GPS aiding data to quickly acquire the GPS
C/A signals for all visible GPS satellites (14, 15, 16). The user terminal then returns the GPS
C/A code measurements to the wireless network (24, 25, 11) which processes the
measurements in conjunction with separate GPS data which it also receives to determine the
users location. This precludes the user terminal from having to perform all the functions
necessary to compute the geolocation. In this manner, the location of the user can be rapidly
determined while reducing the cost of the user terminal.
