Granted: 2005-01-04
Abstract: On présente un compteur servant à mesurer la constante diélectrique d'un matériau particulaire, en particulier de grains, en fonction de sa teneur en humidité. Le compteur comprend une cellule d'essai servant à contenir un échantillon du matériau particulaire soumis à l'essai. Un oscillateur comprend un circuit accordé à fréquence variable servant à faire varier la fréquence de la sortie d'oscillateur. Le circuit accordé comprend un condensateur de cellule d'essai utilisant un échantillon du matériau soumis à l'essai en tant que diélectrique, un condensateur standard à variable étalonnée et un condensateur d'ajustage variable. Un témoin est couplé au condensateur standard à variable étalonnée afin d'afficher une valeur représentant le paramètre de capacité du condensateur standard à variable étalonnée. Un contrôleur de fréquence compare la fréquence de sortie de l'oscillateur avec une fréquence sélectionnée, et un écran de champ zéro affiche la différence entre la fréquence de sortie de l'oscillateur et la fréquence sélectionnée. Dans l'invention, le contrôleur de fréquence génère des sorties c.c. de polarité opposée, selon que la fréquence de sortie de l'oscillateur est supérieure ou inférieure à la fréquence sélectionnée, et l'écran de champ zéro est un écran numérique affichant la différence de fréquence en tant que champ zéro lorsque la fréquence de sortie de l'oscillateur est égale à la fréquence sélectionnée, en tant que valeur positive lorsque la fréquence de sortie de l'oscillateur est supérieure à la fréquence prédéterminée, et en tant que valeur négative lorsque la fréquence de sortie de l'oscillateur est inférieure à la fréquence prédéterminée.

Granted: 2012-07-03
Abstract: A refueling system for vehicles including a dual valve receiver (14) connected in fluid communication with the fuel tank (12), and a jet sensor (16) inside of the fuel tank and in fluid communication with the receiver. The refueling system further includes a relief valve vent (18) in fluid communication with the fuel tank to vent the fuel tank and to relieve pressure that may otherwise build up inside the fuel tank during refueling. When refueling with an automatic shutoff nozzle (20), the sensor detects when a desired fuel level has been reached, and then informs the receiver to prevent fuel flow into the tank. When this occurs, the pressure inside the receiver and automatic shutoff nozzle increases, causing the nozzle to shut off automatically.

Abstract: The present invention balances the amplitude and phase of a received QPSK signal that may have been corrupted during transmission. The system determines the amplitude of the I and Q symbols of a received signal, compares them, and applies a correction to one or both channels to correct for amplitude imbalance. For phase imbalance, the system calculates the cross-correlation of the I and Q symbols which should average to zero. A correction factor is derived from the cross- correlation and applied to both channels, returning the phase cross-correlation to zero. The output from the system is a signal corrected in both amplitude and phase.
