Patent EP-1298042-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HURLBURT JOSEPH C
IPC: B62D7/10
Filed: 2002-09-04
Abstract: A utility vehicle is provided with a middle
axle that is mounted at the end of a bogey beam for
flotational movement relative to the frame of the
vehicle. The middle axle is restrained longitudinally by
support links that are pivotally connected at a location
forward of the rear drive axle. The middle axle is
formed by a pair of stub axles interconnected by a
support beam that is pivotally connected to the rearward
end of the bogey beam. Vertical movement of the middle
axle support wheels results in a corresponding vertical
movement of the rearward end of the bogey beam and a
rotation of the support beam about its pivotal connection
on the bogey beam. The configuration of the support
links provides sufficient slack in the drive mechanism to
the middle axle during flotational movement thereof so as
to allow a slight twisting of the drive mechanism during
oscillation of the middle axle.

Title: Predistortion for correction of non-linearities and group delay in satellite communications
Inventor: BEECH BRIAN HERBERT
IPC: H04L27/36
Filed: 2002-03-13
Abstract: A satellite communication apparatus has a corrector for reducing distortion of a signal in a communication channel. The corrector is formed by a forward model representative of a pre-calculated estimate of non-linearity and group delay of the satellite transmission/reception channel from the input to the up sampler through to the output of the down sampler. The forward model may also comprise a model of magnitude response of a satellite input multiplexer filter and output multiplexer filter. Cascaded identical stages of the corrector may be provided so that distortion in the channel is successively reduced towards zero by each successive stage. An initial approximator which is substantially the inverse of the distorting function of the forward model may be provided.
