Abstract: A method and apparatus for charging the battery (84) of an electric vehicle (80) are provided. When the electric vehicle is connected to a charging station (82), it is interrogated to determine the nature of the charge controller (86) that is on board the vehicle; and logic decisions invoking the particular mode for charging the vehicle are made depending on the nature and type of charge controller that is on board the vehicle. Thus, delivery of charging energy to the battery (84) in the vehicle may be entierely under the control of a charge controller on board the vehicle (86); or if the control module in the vehicle is less sophisticated then delivery of charging energy will be under the control of a charging module within the charging station. Parameters of initial charging current and voltage are therefore set either by the on board battery charging controller, or the charge controller in the charging station; alternatively, those parameters may be set manually or by insertion of a card into a data interface to establish initial charging conditions. Under controlled conditions, a plurality of vehicles may be charged at a single establishment having a plurality of charging stations, either sequentially or simultaneously, depending on the cirteria to be established. The charging station may be privately owned, so as to charge a fleet of vehicles; or there may be a plurality of charging stations at a publicly accessible service station.

Abstract: A point-to-multipoint star configured terrestrial radio communication system having at least one base station transmitting to and receiving RF communication signals from a plurality of associated subscriber stations in the 0.3-300 GigaHertz (GHz) range. The system includes means for reducing frequency uncertainty, drift or error of the RF transmissions from each of the subscriber stations to the base station. Each subscriber station has a low cost local reference oscillator, and the system incorporates a reference broadcast signal of high frequency precision from the base station and at each subscriber station there is means for measuring frequency error and compensating for frequency drift/error in the low-cost oscillator at the subscriber station. Moreover, the system can provide an estimate obtained from measuring each subscriber frequency drift or error in the base station and relaying the measured error to the corresponding subscriber station to compensate for that subscriber's transmitter's local oscillator be out of frequency.

To establish the high and low-range drive connections between the input and the output, a first range sleeve (120) is supported for rotation with the input and is movable between a neutral position and an engaged position whereat the input is coupled to the planet carrier. In addition, a second range sleeve (122) is supported for rotation with the ring gear and is movable between a neutral position and an engaged position whereat the ring gear is coupled to a stationary brake plate (142). Accordingly, the high-range drive connection between the input and the output is established when the first range sleeve is in its engaged position and the second range sleeve is in its neutral position. Moreover, the low-range drive connection between the input and the output is established when the first range sleeve is in its neutral position and the second range sleeve is in its engaged position. Finally, a neutral mode is established whereat the output is not driven by the input when both the first and second range sleeves are in their respective neutral positions.

Abstract: Un dénumériseur (306), destiné à des prothèses auditives ou similaires, comporte un modulateur delta-sigma (204) et un démodulateur (208) de cycle de travail. Le modulateur convertit les données à débit moyen et haute résolution (202) en données à débit moyen et résolution moyenne (206), et le démodulateur convertit les données à débit moyen et résolution moyenne en données à basse résolution et débit élevé (210). Le démodulateur utilise une fonction de consultation (220) pour formater les données de sortie selon un format ayant des taux de transition inférieurs, ce qui diminue la consommation d'énergie. Le dénumériseur peut comporter un facteur de correction (93) dans au moins une de ses boucles de rétroaction, ce qui permet de compenser les caractéristiques des données de sortie provenant du démodulateur.
