A device capable of autonomous motion includes a residual echo suppressor for suppressing echoes caused by an output reference signal. When the device outputs audio while moving with a velocity, it may receive echoes that are Doppler-shifted due to the motion. The residual echo suppressor generates estimated residual error data based on phase-shifted reference data to account for and suppress the Doppler-shifted echoes.

There is a need to monitor and control the state of relays and circuit breakers within power distribution systems. The monitoring of a relay state, i.e. open or closed, is often performed by applying a monitoring signal to sensing contacts added to the relay. Manufactures of such systems have chosen many different voltages for their own. monitoring systems making it difficult to interconnect dissimilar monitoring systems. A signal conditioning circuit is provided that can cope with a large input voltage range and can be configured to allow may items of equipment(which may be new item or legacy items) to be connected to a controller.

The present invention relates to a method of determining the magnetic flux φ of an electric machine, based on measurements (MES) of currents and voltages in the phases of the electric machine, on a dynamic model (MOD) of the magnetic flux and on an adaptive Kalman filter (KAL).

Described herein are systems and methods that allow for correcting a residual frequency offset in the GHz frequency range by using low-complexity analog circuit implementations of a broad-band frequency detector that comprises two analog polyphase filters in a dual configuration. Each filter comprises an RC network of cross-coupled capacitors that facilitate filters with opposite passbands and opposite stop-bands. In various embodiments, the outputs of the two filters are combined to obtain power metrics that when subtracted from each other, deliver a measure of the imbalance between the positive and negative halves of a frequency spectrum. Since the measure is substantially proportional to a frequency offset within a linear range spanning 5 GHz or more, the polyphase filters may be used in a broad-band frequency detector that, based on the measure, adjusts the frequency offset.

A filtering device includes a low-pass filter (LPF), a noise estimation circuit and a first combining circuit. The LPF receives and filters a pre-filtering signal to generate an output signal of the filtering device. The noise estimation circuit estimates an estimated noise signal according to the output signal and the pre-filtering signal. The first combining circuit subtracts the estimated noise signal from an input signal of the filtering device to generate the pre-filtering signal.
