91 METHOD OF OPERATING A CONFOCAL WHITE LIGHT SENSOR ON A COORDINATE MEASURING MACHINE US15922825 2018-03-15 US20180203119A1 2018-07-19 Rudolf Kern; Jochen Burger; Kurt Brenner
A method for operating a confocal white light sensor on a coordinate measuring machine including a sensor carrier configured to couple a coordinate measurement sensor that is movable in a straight movement direction relative to a base of the coordinate measuring machine is provided. A confocal white light sensor is coupled to the sensor carrier and oriented in the straight movement direction toward a reference body. The sensor carrier and the reference body are moved relative to one another in the straight movement direction, and a measurement signal representing a distance between the confocal white light sensor and the reference body is generated at different movement positions. Information relating to a relationship between measurement signals of the confocal white light sensor and an actual distance of the white light sensor to a measurement object is obtained and a measurement value of the object distance is generated.

95 System and method for a virtual reference interferometer US13203186 2010-02-24 US08797539B2 2014-08-05 Michael Galle
An interferometer generates interference between two (or more) waves that have traveled separate paths so as to measure a quantity of difference between these paths. One of these paths, the reference path, is usually one with well known spatial and material properties (such as free 5 space). The other path(s) is(are) the test path(s). The main difficulties in interferometry stem from the production and operation of this physical reference path. The present invention solves this problem by replacing the physical reference path with a virtual one. This is done by suitable operation on the physically generated interference pattern of an unreferenced interferometer with a virtually generated sinusoid of frequency corresponding to the desired reference path length. The result is a new form of interferometer called a Virtual Reference Interferometer.
96 DISTANCE ESTIMATION USING SOUND SIGNALS US13698401 2011-05-13 US20130064042A1 2013-03-14 Ronaldus Maria Aarts; William John Lamb
An apparatus comprises a test signal generator (401) which generates an ultrasonic test signal by modulating an audio band test signal on an ultrasonic signal. The ultrasonic test signal is radiated from a parametric loudspeaker (403) and is demodulated by non-linearities in the air. A reflected audio signal may arise from reflections of an object, such as a wall. An audio band sensor (405) generates an audio band captured signal which comprises the demodulated reflected audio band signal. A distance circuit (407) then generates a distance estimate for the distance from the parametric loudspeaker (403) to the object in response to a comparison of the audio band captured signal and the audio band test signal. Specifically two signals may be correlated to determine a delay corresponding to the full path length. Based on the distance estimates an audio environment may be estimated and a sound system may be adapted accordingly.

A moving object detecting apparatus includes: a transmitting/receiving unit for radiating an ultrasonic wave and receiving a reflective wave reflected from an object present in a monitoring space; a phase detection circuit for mixing reference signals with a reflective signal and obtaining a pair of Doppler signals each having an amplitude depending on a phase difference from the reference signal, each of the Doppler signals having a different phase from each other; a rotation angle calculation unit for calculating a rotation angle; a cumulative addition unit for accumulating the rotation angle; and a comparison unit for comparing the accumulated rotation angle with a threshold value. In the moving object detecting apparatus, a single ultrasonic vibrator is commonly used in the transmitting unit and the receiving unit.

99 Real-time superresolution signal processing US689509 1996-08-06 US5748507A 1998-05-05 Theagenis J. Abatzoglou; Lawrence K. Lam; Homayoun Malek; John T. Reagan
A signal processing system and method capable of real-time implementation for extracting signal parameter information with high accuracy and resolution. Signals (101) are passed through a filter bank (102), downconverted and decimated. The superresolution technique of constrained total least squares (CTLS) is used to process the resulting samples to obtain frequency components and their amplitudes (106). CTLS may also be used to obtain decaying coefficients associated with each frequency components. If desired, the results of CTLS may be used to extend original data for higher resolution spectral analysis and output (109).
100 Method of formation of channels for a sonar, in particular for a towed-array sonar US582330 1990-09-14 US5058081A 1991-10-15 Christian Gulli; Jean Le Gall; Georges Grall
In a method of formation of channels for a sonar, after having sampled at a frequency T=1/4f.sub.0 (where f.sub.0 is the receiving center frequency of the sonar) the signals from the hydrophones of the sonar and having translated them to baseband, the signals thus translated are subsampled with a period T.sub.SE =kT (wherein k is an integer) substantially equal to 1.25 B, where B is the reception bandwidth of the sonar. A first set of signals is subsampled at identical times to form a frontal sector. Two further sets of signals are subsampled with delays between the signals from two adjacent hydrophones equal to T, which determines two side sectors adjacent to the frontal sector. The subsampled signals are then transmitted serially by the towing cable of the sonar device towed array and are processed in FFT circuits which allow to form in each sector a set of channels covering the sector. This allows to considerably reduce the data transmission rate between the towed portion of the sonar and the portion located in the towing ship.
