An Ethernet network is composed of one or more network infrastructure devices, such as a hubs, repeaters, switches or routers, which provides data interconnection and may provide operational power, or some part thereof, to remote network data terminal equipment such as a wireless access point, IP telephone, IP camera or network end station. Most Ethernet networks operate over a combination of the pairs in an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cable, or in some cases may operate over fiber optic cables. The individual links of Ethernet network, between the network infrastructure device and the Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) may be able to operate at one or more data rates such as 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, 1 Gb/s, 2.5 Gb/s, 5 Gb/s and 10 Gb/s, or any combination thereof. The invention discloses an Ethernet Physical Layer (PHY) circuit, in combination with an Integrated Connector Module (ICM), which may reside inside the network equipment at either end of the Ethernet link. The combined PHY-ICM physical layer network device provides the appropriate encoding/decoding and signaling to operate over the specific network cable medium at the required data rate(s). The electrical and mechanical design of the combined PHY-ICM enables a modular approach such that during final assembly, the PHY-ICM can be optimized for operation over the appropriate data rate(s), whether it supports the provision of operational power between the network equipment, and if so at what power level, as well as other functionality. Furthermore, the PHY-ICM is designed to maintain a common electrical and mechanical footprint regardless of which of the features are included or excluded, to optimize the system cost for a specific maximum data rate, as well as minimize any re-engineering necessary on the part of the network equipment designer.

An autopilot nonlinear compensation method includes providing an autopilot command for executing an aircraft maneuver, determining a desired aerodynamic moment of the aircraft based on the autopilot command, providing a measured pilot interface position, determining a total aerodynamic moment of the aircraft based on the measured pilot interface position and the autopilot command in combination with the desired aerodynamic moment, determining a ratio of the desired aerodynamic moment to the total aerodynamic moment, and adjusting the autopilot command with a corrective command based on the ratio. The method may be used to stabilize autopilot control of an aircraft following nonlinear deployment of a control surface.
