Abstract: The motor pump includes a high liquid level sensor (6) connected to an input of a microprocessor (8) and out of phase measuring system for measuring so as to send a start signal to the motor or pump only when the sensors detects a high liquid level. An out of phase stability monitoring unit includes a system for measuring the current level and includes an intermediate liquid level sensor (7) which detects a level between high and low corresponding to motor voltage cutoff. The immersed motor/pump unit includes a pump (2) and AC motor (1) having at least a working phase and a microprocessor integrated in one of the inputs to which a supply voltage is applied and to another input from which is sent a signal representing the current absorbed in the motor phase. The microprocessor includes a system for measuring the phase difference between voltage and current. The microprocessor includes: (a) A system for continuous monitoring of the phase difference stability after it has settled at a constant value; (b) Memory for storing out of phase values, and; (c) Supply voltage cutoff switches which interrupt the supply voltage to the motor when, after out of phase is stabilized, the out of phase value, during a set time period, reaches a value greater than the stabilized value and the signal representing the absorbed current is the current passing only through the working phase.

Abstract: For a noise resistant estimation of a Doppler spread for a radio signal transmission channel in a mobile communications environment, the Doppler spread is estimated on the basis of an autocorrelation function for predefined signal portions of a received radio signal, such as pilot bits of signals transmitted via a control channel in a mobile telephone system. The received radio signal and in particular the predefined signal portions are demodulated to obtain discrete autocorrelation coefficients for the predefined signal portions. First and second derivatives of the autocorrelation function are estimated on the basis of at least two of the autocorrelation coefficients. In dependence of used autocorrelation coefficients, influence of noise included in the received radio signal can be at least reduced with respect to an estimation of the Doppler spread. Using the autocorrelation coefficients being indicative of the autocorrelation function and of the estimated first and second derivatives thereof, the Doppler spread can be estimated.

Abstract: This invention discloses new methods, security devices and apparatuses for authenticating documents and valuable articles which may be applied to any support, including transparent synthetic materials and traditional opaque materials such as paper. The invention relates to moire intensity profiles which occur in the superposition of periodic or aperiodic geometrically transformed structures. By using a specially designed basic screen and master screen, where at least the basic screen is comprised in the document, a moire intensity profile of a chosen shape becomes visible in their superposition, thereby allowing the authentication of the document. If a microlens structure is used as a master screen, the document comprising the basic screen may be printed on an opaque reflective support, thereby enabling the visualization of the moire intensity profile by reflection. Automatic document authentication is supported by an apparatus comprising a master screen, an image acquisition means such as a camera and a comparing processor whose task is to compare the acquired moire intensity profile with a reference image. Depending on the match, the document handling device connected to the comparing processor accepts or rejects the document. An important advantage of the present invention is that it can be incorporated into the standard document printing process, so that it offers high security at the same cost as standard state of the art document production.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for estimating maximum rate of data and for estimating a transmission power required for transmission of a data with a rate of data in a communication system are disclosed. A terminal determines a quality metric of a communication link, over which data are to be transmitted, and modifies the determined quality metric by a quality metric margin. The terminal then estimates the maximum rate of data in accordance with the modified quality metric. Alternatively, the terminal then estimates transmission power required for transmission of a data with a rate of data in accordance with the rate of data and the modified quality metric. The quality metric margin may be pre-determined or dynamically adjusted. The terminal dynamically adjusts the quality metric margin in accordance with a result of comparison of a transmit power corresponding to the estimated maximum rate of data with an actual transmit power used to transmit the data.
