An alignment system uses a self-referencing interferometer that produces two overlapping and relatively rotated images of an alignment markers. Detectors detect intensities in a pupil plane where Fourier transforms of the images are caused to interfere. The positional information is derived from the phase difference between diffraction orders of the two images which manifests as intensity variations in the interfered orders. Asymmetry can also be measured by measuring intensities at two positions either side of a diffraction order.

The system can also receive energy from conventional sources such as batteries and manage the energy from all sources to meet the power requirements of the munition.

A vehicle motor-generator apparatus based on a field winding type of synchronous machine coupled to a power inverter and a battery, wherein the synchronous machine is controlled to operate as a motor to perform engine starting and thereafter be driven by the engine as an electrical generator, wherein during a short time interval at the commencement of engine starting, the armature winding of the synchronous machine is driven by a current such that magnetic flux is produced by the armature winding acting in the same direction as magnetic flux produced by the field winding, to thereby achieve increased torque during the time when maximum torque is required. In addition, the supplied field current is set at a maximum value during only an initial period when engine starting begins, until the first compression stroke of the engine has been completed, and thereafter set to a reduced value until the completion of engine starting, thereby reducing the amount temperature rise within the field winding during engine starting, while ensuring a sufficiently high value of initial torque.

A robust integer carrier frequency offset estimation method for OFDM systems is disclosed. Compared with conventional methods which use either two consecutive OFDM symbols or only one training symbol, the method is insensitive to the timing offset as long as the channel spread is shorter than the OFDM cyclic prefix length. Most importantly, it does not require any information on the scrambling code used in systems such as STiMi. The method improves the accuracy of integer carrier frequency offset, especially in channels with long and strong echoes. It offers the receiver more freedom in setting the FFT window since it is insensitive to the timing offset.

Signal processing for a receiver, such as a radio receiver within a cellular telephone, includes providing frequency conversion, preferentially passing a desired signal following the conversion, and introducing both phase-based filtering and equalization to the band-filtered signal. In one embodiment, the band filtering is provided by a low pass filter and the compensation occurs following operations by a polyphase filter, which implements the phase-based filtering. In many applications, the frequency conversion is a down conversion to either a zero intermediate frequency or a low intermediate frequency. The low pass filter reduces out-of-band interference and blocking signal strength, but may introduce phase-related distortions. The polyphase filtering and equalization cooperate to control the phase-related distortions.
