Abstract: A system and method for controlling speed of a vehicle
include determining whether or not a stand-by braking torque
is applied, determining an actual distance from a preceding
vehicle in front of a vehicle, comparing the actual distance with
a desired distance to determine whether the actual distance is
greater than the desired distance, determining motor/engine
torque to increase vehicle speed, and applying the
motor/engine torque when the actual distance is greater than
the desired distance. Application of stand-by braking torque is
terminated upon receiving operator torque request.

Abstract: A wall-thickness thinning rate at a not-measured
position is estimated using information having a small
number of measured points. Simulation of behavior of fluid
flowing inside a pipe line is performed based on wall-thickness
data of pips and three-dimensional layout data of
the pipe line including the pips using a computer, and
simulated wall-thickness thinned data of the pipes
composing the pipe line is calculated from change of the
simulated behavior of fluid.

Abstract: A system for digital barcode processing. A light reflected from a barcode is
captured by a photodetector to produce a photocurrent. The photocurrent is converted
to a voltage, amplified and filtered to produce a photovoltage. The photovoltage is
differentiated to form a first derivative signal and the first derivative signal is converted
to a digital first derivative signal and processed to identify logic transitions represented
by the barcode. The processing system subjects the photosignal to Gaussian filtering
and differentiates the digital first derivative signal to form a second derivative signal.
The digital first derivative signal is compared against a positive and a negative
threshold and the second derivative signal is examined to detect zero crossings. When
a positive peak of the first derivative exceeds the positive threshold and the second
derivative undergoes a negative zero crossing within a predetermined time before or
after the positive peak exceeds the positive threshold, a negative logic transition is
identified. When a negative peak of the first derivative exceeds the negative threshold
and the second derivative undergoes a positive zero crossing within a predetermined
time before or after the first derivative exceeds the negative threshold, a positive logic
transition is identified.

Abstract: An optical transmitter for digitally modulated RF sub-carriers
comprising an electroabsorption modulator integrated distributed feedback
laser (412) for transmitting the digitally modulated RF sub-carriers (406) in
the sub-octave frequency range. The negative bias is optimized for
maximum carrier signal to noise ratio (CNR) which occurs when the
composite triple beat (CTB) non-linear distortion is minimum that allows
higher modulation index without causing any in-band distortion. A higher
CNR increases the receiver sensitivity and thus more users can be served
from a single transmitter or the transmitting signal can be modulated with
higher order of digital modulation.

Abstract: A method, corresponding apparatus, and corresponding system, for
acquiring a received spread spectrum signal, the received signal
having a carrier component at a carrier frequency, a code
component having a code period, and a data component, the
acquiring including matching the phase of a replica of the code
component to the phase of the received code component and also
determining a possible shift in the carrier frequency away from
a nominal carrier frequency, the acquiring having an intrinsic
bandwidth that is substantially the inverse of a predetermined
fraction of a code period and also having a design bandwidth
that is a fraction of the intrinsic bandwidth including possibly
the entire intrinsic bandwidth, the method including performing
various correlations over sections of a code period, the number
of sections determining the intrinsic bandwidth, and adjusting
the design bandwidth to be possibly less than the intrinsic
bandwidth, so as to alter the characteristics of the
acquisition. In some applications, to achieve a desired
tradeoff between design bandwidth in the sense of a portion of
the frequency separation between successive coarse frequencies
spanning an interval over which the carrier frequency is assumed
to be found, cancellation of aliasing introduced by integration
of the received signal with the replica code in computing a
correlation of the received signal with the replica code, and
frequency resolution, any two parameters from among the set of
three parameters consisting of the design bandwidth, the number
of fine frequencies spanning the interval between two adjacent
coarse frequencies, and frequency resolution, in the sense of
the spacing between adjacent fine frequencies, are independently 
selected, and the other parameter is determined based on an
equation relating the three parameters.
