Terrestial-Signal Based Exclusion Zone Compliance
US Patent:
8054181, Nov 8, 2011
Filed:
Oct 14, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/905064
Inventors:
Peter Van Wyck Loomis - Sunnyvale CA, US
James M. Janky - Los Altos CA, US
Bruce Riter - Los Altos CA, US

Assignee:
Trimble Navigation Limited - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
G08B 1/08
US Classification:
34053913, 3405392, 34042615, 34042619, 340985, 340989, 340992, 340993, 342176, 342195, 342464, 342413
Abstract:
An exclusion zone compliance circuit comprises a terrestrial radio signal reception component for receiving a terrestrial radio signal comprising a unique identification of a transmission source. A non-volatile memory component of the circuit stores an encrypted data set describing boundaries of an exclusion zone. A navigation data deriving component of the circuit accesses a data set and compares the unique identification with a station identification of the transmission source and the geographic position of the transmission source. The navigation data deriving component derives a geographic position of the exclusion zone compliance circuit and determines whether the exclusion zone compliance circuit is located within an exclusion zone. A data blocking component of the circuit accesses the encrypted data set. A data control component of the exclusion zone compliance circuit blocks output of a signal in response to an indication that the circuit is located within an exclusion zone.

Abstract:
A circuit for exclusion zone compliance is recited. In one embodiment, the circuit comprises a satellite navigation signal reception component configured for receiving at least one signal from at least one Global Navigation Satellite System satellite and a navigation data deriving component configured for deriving position data and a clock time from the at least one signal. The circuit further comprises a non-volatile memory component configured for storing an encrypted data set describing the boundaries of an exclusion zone and a data blocking component configured for controlling the accessing of the encrypted data set. The circuit further comprises a data control component configured for blocking the output of a signal from the circuit in response an indication selected from the group consisting of: an indication that the circuit is located within an exclusion zone and an indication that output of said signal is not permitted based upon said clock time.

US Classification:
375147, 375149, 375150, 375343, 375142, 370210, 370335
Abstract:
A method for estimating an unknown spreading code in a received signal by using a set of genetic algorithms. The method comprises: selecting at least one seed of the unknown spreading code for initialization purposes, wherein the unknown spreading code comprises a plurality of chips, and performing a breeding process of the unknown spreading code by executing a breeding algorithm.
System And Method For Refining A Position Estimate Of A Low Earth Orbiting Satellite
US Patent:
8260551, Sep 4, 2012
Filed:
Dec 16, 2008

International Classification:
G01C 21/00
US Classification:
701469, 34235725, 34235743, 34235744
Abstract:
In a method for refining a position estimate of a low earth orbiting (LEO) satellite a first position estimate of a LEO satellite is obtained with a GNSS receiver on-board the LEO satellite. The first position estimate is communicated to a Virtual Reference Station (VRS) processor. VRS corrections are received at the LEO satellite, the VRS corrections having been calculated for the first position estimate by the VRS processor. The VRS corrections are processed on-board the LEO satellite such that a VRS corrected LEO satellite position estimate of the LEO satellite is generated for the first position estimate.
Methods And Systems For Harnessing Electrical Energy From Ambient Vibrational Motion Of A Moving Vehicle
US Patent:
7161254, Jan 9, 2007
Filed:
Jan 7, 2004

Assignee:
Trimble Navigation Ltd. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
F02B 63/04
US Classification:
290 1R
Abstract:
Vibrational motion caused by a moving vehicle is transduced into electrical energy by a vibrational-to-electric energy converter, and stored in an electrical energy storage device such as a rechargeable battery. The electrical energy storage device may then power one or more electronic components located on the moving vehicle. Where a radio transmitter is used, information produced by the electronic components located on the moving vehicle may be transmitted to other locations/devices.
