A method and apparatus is provided for high speed, non-contact method of measuring the 3-D coordinates of a dense grid of points on a surface, including high accuracy interpolation between grid points. A plurality of pulsed laser sub-projectors sequentially illuminates a plurality of discrete Gray code bar pattern transparencies carried on a spinning circular code disk to project high frame rate structured light. The structured light is reflected by the surface and recorded at high signal-to-noise ratio by a plurality of high frame rate digital cameras, then decoded and interpolated by electronic signal processing. A numerical formula is derived for numbers of equally spaced discrete code patterns on the code disk that allow each camera to receive pulses from all sub-projectors and all patterns at a constant frame rate. Methods to derive an extended complementary Gray code pattern sequence and to normalize measured signal amplitudes are presented.

A test pattern sequence is generated (101), then a logic simulation of the operation of an IC under test in the case of applying each test pattern of the test pattern sequence, and a logic signal value sequence occurring in each signal line of the IC under test (102). The logic signal value sequence in each signal line is used to register in a fault list parts (a logic gate, signal line or signal propagation path) in which a fault (a delay fault or an open fault) detectable by a transient power supply current testing using the test pattern sequence is likely to occur (103).

The invention concerns a method and a base station (21) for controlling beam forming in a mobile cellular network: Antenna units (212) of base stations (21) of a cluster of neighbored base stations (21) apply a respective beam pattern sequence on each sector of a cell served by the respective base station (21). The beam pattern sequence is selected from a respective predefined set of beam pattern sequences and each beam pattern sequence defines a sequence of beam subsets used for communication with mobile units (41, 42, 43, 44). One of the base stations (21) of the cluster which acts as trigger base station informs all neighbored base stations of the cluster of neighbored base stations (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27) not to change their beam pattern sequences. The trigger base station (21) controls the antenna unit (212) of the trigger base station (21) to change the beam pattern sequence applied on the sectors of the cell and sequently apply two or more different beam pattern sequences of the predefined set of beam pattern sequences on the respective sector. The trigger base station (21) triggers one or more mobile units (41, 42, 43, 44) located in the cluster of neighbored base stations to calculate one or more signal quality parameters for currently applied beam pattern sequences of the trigger base station (21). The trigger base station (21) selects an optimal beam pattern sequence from the set of the predefined beam pattern sequences based on the one or more calculated signal quality parameters and the antenna unit (212) of the trigger base station (21) applies the optimal beam pattern sequence as a new beam pattern sequence on the respective sector.

A parallel processing pattern generation system for an integrated circuit tester includes two pattern memories, a main pattern generator, and two auxiliary pattern generators. Each pattern memory may receive and store data patterns from a host computer before the test. All three pattern generators may produce data pattern sequences in a variety of ways by executing separately stored algorithmic programs. The pattern sequences generated by each of the two auxiliary pattern generators separately address the two pattern memories so that either one or both of the two pattern memories may read out pattern data during a test. The main pattern generator includes a routing circuit for receiving as inputs a portion of the pattern data generated by the main pattern generator itself and the pattern data read out of the two pattern memories. The routing circuit, controlled by another portion of the pattern data produced by the main pattern generator, selects from among its inputs on a bit-by-bit, cycle-by-cycle basis to provide pattern data for controlling tester activities during each cycle of a test.

A passive entry system receives an electromagnetic interrogation signal transmitted from an interrogation antenna to a remote transponder, wherein the interrogation signal includes a wakeup pattern data sequence. A plurality of channel signals is generated within the transponder from a corresponding plurality of antennas in response to the electromagnetic interrogation signal. Bit detection is performed on each of the plurality of channel signals to detect the wakeup pattern sequence. A received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of the interrogation signal is determined using the plurality of channel signals, wherein only channel signals on which a valid wakeup pattern sequence is detected are used for determining the RSSI. A wakeup signal is asserted to wake up a processing module in the remote transponder only when the wakeup pattern sequence is detected on at least one of the plurality of channel signals.

The present invention relates to a method of cataloguing a data structure and also preferably a method of searching through such as data structure to detect the presence of search patterns within the data structure. The catalogusing method of the present invention employs the formation of a catalogue data structure which is used to associate data items (transformed from data elements present within the data collection) with storage addresses. This catalogue data structure may be sorted to facilitate searching through same. Such searches may be completed through the formation of a plurality of search quries from a received search pattern sequence where the results of running these search queries may then be subsequently considered in conjunction with a search pattern sequence detection process.

A method that estimates the coordinates of the calibration points in the projector image plane using local homographies obtained from the imaging camera. First, a dense set of correspondences between projector and camera pixels is found by projecting onto the calibration object an identical pattern sequence as the one later projected when scanning the target, reusing most of the software components written for the scanning application. Second, the set of correspondences is used to compute a group of local homographies that allow projection back of any of the points in the calibration object onto the projector image plane with sub-pixel precision. In the end, the data projector is then calibrated as a normal camera.

An imaging system and method that captures compressive sensing (CS) measurements of a received light stream, and also obtains samples of background light level (BGLL). The BGLL samples may be used to compensate the CS measurements for variations in the BGLL. The system includes: a light modulator to spatially modulate the received light stream with spatial patterns, and a lens to concentrate the modulated light stream onto a light detector. The samples of BGLL may be obtained in various ways: (a) injecting calibration patterns among the spatial patterns; (b) measuring complementary light reflected by digital micromirrors onto a secondary output path; (c) separating and measuring a portion of light from the optical input path; (d) low-pass filtering the CS measurements; and (e) employing a light power meter with its own separate input path. Also, the CS measurements may be high-pass filtered to attenuate background light variation.

A monitoring system for determining the condition of an object includes an empirical model with reference data that indicates the normal operational state of the object, and input pattern arrays. Each input pattern array has a plurality of time-ordered input vectors, while each input vector has input values representing a plurality of parameters indicating the current condition of the object. The empirical model generates estimate values based on a calculation that uses an input pattern array and the reference data to determine a similarity measure between the input values and reference data. A differencing module compares the estimates values to the corresponding input values so that resulting values from the comparison can be used to determine the condition of the object.
