A method for estimating the location of a wireless terminal at an unknown location, such as within a building. A location engine using the disclosed method receives and uses samples of barometric pressure measured by the wireless terminal to generate a characterization of a pressure wave in the vicinity of the wireless terminal. The location engine generates an estimate of the location of the wireless terminal based on the characterization of the pressure wave and, in some cases, the location of the source of the pressure wave, such as a building's door that is opening or closing. The location engine also bases the estimate of the wireless terminal's location on a propagation characteristic of the pressure wave, such as its speed of propagation.

A technique for estimating the location of a wireless terminal at an unknown location in a geographic region. The technique is based on a two-part recognition, the first part being that a transient in atmospheric pressure attributed to a particular source, such as an entry door of a building opening and closing, is detectable in some environments while not being present in others. The second part of the recognition is that a correlation exists between i) the presence of a transient in the characterization of a pressure wave in the vicinity of a wireless terminal and ii) whether the wireless terminal is indoors or not. Transients in pressure waves are often present indoors but not outdoors. By accounting for the transients being detected or not being detected in the vicinity of the wireless terminal, the disclosed technique is able to estimate whether the wireless terminal is indoors.

A polishing device has a substrate stage which holds a substrate Wf, a processing head which processes a surface of the substrate Wf, an indentation detecting system which detects a position of an indentation in the substrate Wf, a movement mechanism which moves the processing head in a radial direction of the substrate stage, and a rotation mechanism which rotates the substrate stage, and the indentation detecting system has a fluid injection nozzle configured to inject a fluid to a circumferential edge portion of the substrate Wf when the substrate Wf is held on the substrate stage, a fluid measuring device which measures a physical quantity which is pressure or a flow rate of the fluid, and a position detector which detects the position of the indentation formed in the circumferential edge portion of the substrate Wf based on a change in physical quantity.

Provided is a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) sensor adapter. The sensor adapter may include two chambers. The first chamber may include a tortuous pathway for fluid and/or air flow. The second chamber may be fluidly sealed or separated from the first chamber and may house electrical components. The tortuous pathway may include varying stepped segments having a decreasing diameter from a proximal toward a distal end. For example, a first segment at the proximal end may have a larger diameter than a second, middle segment. An entrance to a third segment from the second segment may have a greatly reduced size. The tortuous pathway may further include a vent inlet positioned at approximately the same height as the entrance but requiring an approximate 180? turn therebetween. The inlet may extend into two opposite substantially horizontal portions that each lead to a vent outlet on opposite sides of the sensor adapter. The turn from the inlet to the substantially horizontal portions may be approximately 90?. The sensor adapter and tortuous pathway may mitigate aeration of DEF. The sensor adapter may prevent aerated DEF from entering the sensor adapter and may allow air to vent out of the sensor adapter to prevent aeration of DEF within the sensor adapter.

In one aspect, a system for detecting ground engaging tool float for an agricultural implement may include an implement having a ground engaging tool pivotally coupled to a frame and a biasing element coupled between the frame and the ground engaging tool. The biasing element may be configured to bias the ground engaging tool to a predetermined ground engaging tool position relative to the frame. The system may also include a sensor configured to detect a parameter indicative of a current position of the ground engaging tool relative to the frame. Additionally, the system may include a controller configured to monitor the current position of the ground engaging tool based on measurement signals received from the sensor and identify a time period across which the ground engaging tool is displaced from the predetermined ground engaging tool position. The controller may be further configured to compare the identified time period to a threshold time period to determine when a ground engaging tool float event is occurring during operation of the implement.
