The sensor fault detector is one in which each sensor signal is compared with a reference signal provided by e.g. a model of the system being monitored. Prior art sensor fault detectors subtract the output of the sensor and the corresponding reference signal from each other, and a fault is declared when the residual difference exceeds a prescribed threshold. However, modelling errors (such as scaling discrepancies), d.c bias and noise mean that faults are often wrongly declared, or alternatively that only large faults can be detected. These problems are overcome according to the invention by comparing the "shape" of the sensor signal with that of the corresponding reference signal (i.e. comparing the signal outlines) over a finite time window, using e.g. correlation techniques. A fault is declared when the shapes differ by a prescribed amount.

The system and method of the present invention provides viewers access to a library of movies, or any other audio / video content available for viewing at anytime. Specifically, the method involves transmitting movies wirelessly to a set-top box in one's home and allowing movies to accumulate. A hard disk drive in the set-top box is used to store movies. In an exemplary embodiment, movies are wirelessly transmitted to the set-top box using a datacasting technology which allows data to be encoded onto standard television signals and transmitted using existing television transmitters and broadcast towers. Movies are transferred to the set-top box using a broadcast file transfer protocol and stored on the hard drive. Movies are “packetized” and these packets are continuously transmitted to the set-top box where they are incrementally reassembled. The user is not aware of what data is being sent to their set-top box. The movies are pushed down by the provider to reside passively in the box for a finite time period. Transmission of the data is controlled by the content or service provider. To ensure that movies are received in their entirety, the same movie may be broadcast to the set-top box several times. Any packets of data that were not received in the first attempt of transmission will be received with subsequent broadcasts. The set-top box is also connected to a phone line for billing purposes.

Signal “peak” and “valley” removal properties of mathematical morphology operators are exploited in a method and apparatus for detecting, removing, or improving fidelity of pacemaker signal components of the Electrocardiogram (ECG) at sampling rates well below the pacemaker signal Nyquist rate. The method works for the wide variability in pacemaker signal amplitude, width, firing frequency, and other characteristics encountered in practice, and it works for malfunctioning pacemakers that may fire at any point relative to the QRS complex of the ECG signal. Filtering operations require minimal digital storage and are computationally inexpensive (no multiplications), mainly involving “maximum” and “minimum” type signal detections over a finite time history of the input signal. This implies that the method can be inexpensively implemented on small instruments in either hardware or software. The method may also be used to estimate the height and polarity of the pacemaker voltage spike, even though the base sampling period may be longer than the width of the spike.

A method for presenting seismic data in a multidimensional visualization. Specifically, in the visualization technique of the current invention, seismic data is displayed in a multidimensional plan view utilizing at least four dimensions associated with the seismic data, such as for example, x, y, time / depth and offset. In the method of the invention, a plurality of time or depth windows are defined along a reflector or any other time or depth surface of interest on the prestack data as presented in standard CMP displays. In one embodiment of the invention, for each CMP gather, a window is defined around the data representing the reflector of interest. Passing through each window are individual seismic traces. The window, being defined on the seismic display, is associated with a finite time / depth segment and will contain several offsets. In addition, since each CMP gather has a constant x and y coordinate, the window is associated with specific spatial coordinates. These spatial coordinates are used to plot the window on an x-y plan view. Each window represents a segment of the seismic data associated with a reflector or other time / depth window. The data within each window can be analyzed to determine such things as, for example, the accuracy of the particular velocity model selected for data processing methods, such a migration. Furthermore, as multiple windows are plotted on the plan view, trends in the data become more prevalent to an observer. The resulting multidimensional plan view thereby permits presentation of the data utilizing at least four dimensions of the data. In another embodiment, additional information can be extracted from the multidimensional plan view by overlaying this plan view on additional representations of the data, such as for example, the underlying seismic structure. In addition, the visualization techniques could be used on poststack data to visualize several stacked traces around a point of interest.
