EMBEDDING TIMING GROUP INFORMATION IN REFERENCE SIGNALS FOR POSITIONING
Techniques are provided for embedding timing error group (TEG) information in reference signals. An example method for determining a timing error group associated with internal timing errors of a first station includes receiving the reference signal including embedded timing error group information from a first station, and determining a timing group error value based at least in part on the embedded timing error group information.
Reflective Environment Detection Systems And Methods
Systems and methods are provided that include a control module of a vehicle. The control module instructs at least one of a beacon and a plurality of sensors to broadcast a ping signal in response to a user device being within a threshold distance of the vehicle. The plurality of sensors communicate signal information to the control module, and the signal information indicates an amount of reflection of the ping signal measured by the plurality of sensors. A sensor calibration module (i) determines a presence of a reflective element based on the signal information, and (ii) in response to determining the presence of the reflective element and the user device being connected to a communication gateway of the control module, adjusts a measurement of a first sensor of the plurality of sensors based on the signal information.
Geolocation Calibration for Calibrating Radio Direction Finding System by Remote Control
A mobile radio direction finding (RDF) calibrator, and a method of using it to calibrate an RDF system aboard a vehicle. The calibrator has a GPS (global positioning satellite) or other GNSS (global navigation satellite system) receiver, which permits the calibrator to make its location known to the calibration process of the RDF-equipped vehicle. During calibration, the calibration process controls the calibrator remotely. As the RDF-equipped vehicle moves in a circle, it collects calibration response data, as well as location data, so that the calibration response data can be mapped to the correct azimuth.
SET BUFFER STATE INSTRUCTION
Input/output (I/O) operation requests from pageable storage mode guests are interpreted without host intervention. In a pageable mode virtual environment, requests issued by pageable storage mode guests are processed by one or more processors of the environment absent intervention from one or more hosts of the environment. Processing of the requests includes manipulating, by at least one processor on behalf of the guests, buffer state information stored in host storage. The manipulating is performed via instructions initiated by the guests and processed by one or more of the processors.
POSITIONING CALIBRATION WITH REFERENCE POINT
Disclosed are various techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may determine that the UE is or will be at a location within a calibration region. The UE may report, to a network entity, location information, the location information being associated with the location within the calibration region. In an aspect, a network entity may obtain calibration error information associated with a user equipment (UE) and a calibration region. The network entity may send the calibration error information to the UE, to a base station, or to combinations thereof.
System And Method For Aiding The Landing Of An Aircraft
The system for aiding the landing of an aircraft on a landing runway of an airport equipped with an Instrument Landing System (ILS) corresponding to an axis of a predetermined approach, includes: an ILS signals receiver and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to, when the ILS signals receiver) has not yet captured a Glide signal corresponding to a Glide axis of the approach as a function of items of information relating to the predetermined approach, acquired from a database, determine a protection volume in which there is no risk of the ILS signals receiver detecting a replica of the Glide signal; and when a current position of the aircraft is above the protection volume, inhibit the capture of the Glide signal by the ILS signals receiver and instruct the emission of an alert item of information in the cockpit of the aircraft.
Traffic signal emulation using genetic algorithm
Systems, components, and methodologies are provided for improvements in operation of automotive vehicles by enabling emulation of traffic signal operation by genertic algorithms, providing tunable solutions for efficient and safe operation.

Calibration of the Position of Mobile Objects in Buildings
The present disclosure relates to building management. Various embodiments may include methods for determining a current position of mobile objects in buildings including: transmitting a referenced item of position information to a mobile object; transmitting a building plan to the mobile object for display thereon; and providing a calibration calculation for determining the current position of the mobile object on the plans displayed on the mobile object based on the position information. The position information is unambiguously associated with the transmitting device and thus corresponds to a current location of the mobile object in the building. Transmission of the position information or of the reference thereto takes place within a directional radio emitting region.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE, DATE-AND-TIME ACQUISITION CONTROL METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Provided is an electronic device includes an oscillator circuit that outputs a clock signal of predetermined frequency, a clock circuit that counts date and time in accordance with input of the clock signal, a temperature sensor that measures a temperature relating to a change of the predetermined frequency, a receiver that receives a radio wave from a positioning satellite, and a first processor and/or a second processor. The first processor and/or the second processor estimates an amount of time count difference in date and time counted by the clock circuit on the basis of a history of temperatures measured by the temperature sensor, and combines date and time counted by the clock circuit, the estimated amount of time count difference, and part of date-and-time information obtained from a radio wave received by the receiver to identify current date and time.
