GNSS Statistically derived ABS speedometer calibration

A vehicle (100, figures 1a, 1b) comprises a wheel (102) and a speed sensor (104) for determining a first vehicle speed, an inertial sensor (106) and a processor (110). The processor determines a second vehicle speed based on information from the inertial sensor and a satellite based system (220, figure 2) and, if the difference between the first and second vehicle speeds is statistically significant, responsively adjusts a wheel radius value. The first vehicle speed may be determined based on the wheel radius value. A distribution may be obtained of data points corresponding to differences between first and second vehicle speeds, a standard deviation may be calculated and particular data points greater than a threshold percentage of the standard deviation may be determined. The wheel radius value may be adjusted using a correction factor based upon the distribution of data points and the standard deviation.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING THE POSITION OF A VEHICLE

There is provided a system in which a transponder is carried by each vehicle traveling on or above the earth's surface which transmits a signal which is responsive to an interrogation signal to a ground station through two or more satellites and in the ground station, the position of the vehicle is determined from the propagation time differences of the response signals received via the satellites. In this system, the information indicative of the time lag which is required for the transpoder to receive the interrogation signal and to transmit the response signal responsive to the interrogation signal is included in the response signal and then such response signal is transmitted. Thus, the time lag which is peculiar to each transponder and corresponds to the time required from the reception of the interrogation signal to the transmission of the response signal can be corrected. With this system, the positioning accuracy of each vehicle can be improved.

GEOLOCATION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SATELLITE BASED TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

A method for determining the geolocation of a user terminal within a telecommunications system having a constellation of satellites which relay communications signals between earth stations and user terminals over preassigned channels. The method performs synchronization upon the telecommunications signals to calculate timing and frequency update information for the user terminals. The timing and frequency update information is also used within the earth station to calculate the geoposition of the user terminal. To do so, the earth station calculates a distance between the satellite and a user terminal based on the corresponding propagation time therebetween which is obtained from the timing information. Once the satellite to user terminal distance is obtained, a range solution line may be calculated therefrom. In addition, the frequency update information is used to calculate a Doppler solution line upon which the user terminal is positioned. Thereafter, the range and Doppler solution ...

Method and apparatus for determining the position of a vehicle

There is provided a system in which a transponder is carried by each vehicle traveling on or above the earth's surface which transmits a signal which is responsive to an interrogation signal to a ground station through two or more satellites and in the ground station, the position of the vehicle is determined from the propagation time differences of the response signals received via the satellites. In this system, the information indicative of the time lag which is required for the transponder to receive the interrogation signal and to transmit the response signal responsive to the interrogation signal is included in the response signal and then such response signal is transmitted. Thus, the time lag which is peculiar to each transponder and corresponds to the time required from the reception of the interrogation signal to the transmission of the response signal can be corrected. With this system, the positioning accuracy of each vehicle can be improved.

INTERFERENCE SUPPRESSION METHOD AND DETECTION DEVICE

An interference suppression method and a detection apparatus are provided. A radar determines a group of optimized phases of a transmit signal at a transmit end, and modulates an initial phase of the transmit signal into an optimized phase.

Device for monitoring movement of shipped goods

A device for monitoring movement of shipped goods and a related improvement include a detector for generating a signal in response to movement of the device during shipping when associated with the goods. A processor processes the signal to generate one or more movement events, and time-tags the movement events with time of occurrence information from a clock. A GPS chip locates the device, data from the GPS chip providing location information of where each of the movement events occurred. A first communications port communicates each movement event, tagged with the time of occurrence information and location information, to a receiver remote from the device.

Geolocation method and apparatus for satellite based telecommunications system

A method for determining the geolocation of a user terminal within a telecommunications system having a constellation of satellites which relay communications signals between earth stations and user terminals over preassigned channels. The method performs synchronization upon the telecommunications signals to calculate timing and frequency update information for the user terminals. The timing and frequency update information is also used within the earth station to calculate the geoposition of the user terminal. To do so, the earth station calculates a distance between the satellite and a user terminal based on the corresponding propagation time therebetween which is obtained from the timing information. Once the satellite to user terminal distance is obtained, a range solution line may be calculated therefrom. In addition, the frequency update information is used to calculate a Doppler solution line upon which the user terminal is positioned. Thereafter, the range and Doppler solution lines are combined to obtain points of intersection therebetween. These points of intersection represent potential geolocations of the user terminal. The earth station discriminates between these intersection points in one of several manners, such as the coverage beam spot or geographic cell assigned to the user terminal. Upon obtaining a single intersection point, the longitude and latitude of this point or output is the geolocation of the user terminal.

Vehicle locating system

A vehicle locating system (VLS) comprises a large number, for example, several million, vehicle-mounted transmitters (30, 32, 34) and several benchmark transmitters (40, 42, 44); first, second and third signal relay stations (46, 48, 50) and a central processing station (22) at which the transmitter locations are determined, the central station being connected by conventional links to subscriber stations (60, 62). One hundred microsecond-long RF signals are transmitted by each transmitter in a non-synchronized, mutually random manner. Each signal comprises a 20 microsecond synchronization symbol followed by six, four bit transmitter identification symbols, each of ten microseconds length. Following the identification symbols are 10 microsecond message and processing symbols. The control station includes correlation means for correlating the synchronization symbols on each relayed signal against stored data to identify the beginnings of the signals. Identification symbols of each signal are then decoded by correlation means to establish transmitter identification, a combination of 166 possible identifications being provided. Signals arriving in the central station are time-tagged upon arrival and the time differences of arrival (TDOA) are used to compute transmitter location. Benchmark tranmsmitter computed locations are used to calibrate the VLS. Means may be provided on the vehicle transmitters to enable the rate of transmissions to be varied, to thereby enable encoding preselected messages relating, for example, to vehicle motion, vehicle crashes and vehicle intrusion/theft, responsive to associated sensors. Alternatively, or in addition, specific, prestored messages may be encoded into the transmitted signals manually or automatically in response to sensor input.
