Vehicle braking assembly
The assembly comprises a body wherein there are defined a chamber, a supply valve adapted to connect the chamber to a pressure source or to the atmosphere, and a vent valve adapted to allow or prevent the connection of the chamber to the atmosphere. The valves are provided with control solenoids to which respective electronic switches are coupled. The assembly also comprises electronic control devices adapted to provide, as a function of the values of at least one input signal, logic control signals to the electronic switches so as to control, through the valves, the value of the pressure in the chamber. The control means comprise two processing and control devices independent of one another, both receiving the input signal and designed to execute strategies for controlling the pressure in the chamber, equivalent to one another.
DYNAMIC RESOURCE ALLOCATION AMONG DIFFERENT OFDM NUMEROLOGY SCHEMES
The present disclosure relates to a resource allocation procedure for allocating time-frequency radio resources by a scheduler in a mobile communication system. A plurality of numerology schemes are defined, each partitioning a plurality of radio resources of the mobile communication system into resource scheduling units in a different manner. A reference resource set is defined per numerology scheme, each being associated to a set of radio resources usable for being allocated according to the respective numerology scheme. The reference resource set of at least one numerology scheme overlaps with the reference resource set of at least another numerology scheme in the frequency and/or time domain. The resource allocation procedure is performed for allocating radio resources to one or more user terminals according to the numerology schemes. The resource allocation procedure is performed for each numerology scheme based on a scheduling time interval defined for the respective numerology scheme.

The first control unit may include a first microcontroller to control the signals of the first control unit using an artificial intelligence (AI) neural network having artificial neurons arranged in layers and connected with each other by connections.
SYSTEM, METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR POSITION-BASED PARKING OF VEHICLE
An example system includes a roadside apparatus and an in-vehicle device for position-based parking of a vehicle, for example, in environments with weak GPS signals. The roadside apparatus determines a first posture data of a vehicle that includes a relative position and an orientation of the vehicle. The relative position is with respect to a predetermined location associated with the roadside apparatus. The roadside apparatus transmits the first posture data, and the in-vehicle device receives the first posture data. The in-vehicle device dynamically evaluates a predetermined rule with the first posture data. The predetermined rule defines a target posture data with respect to both relative position and orientation. The in-vehicle device controls, in response to the predetermined rule failing to be satisfied, the vehicle to perform a posture adjustment operation based on posture adjustment data determined from a difference between the target posture data and the first posture data.
BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM
A brake control system for an aircraft is disclosed having a plurality of brake actuators. Each brake actuator includes a braked state imparting an unknown braking torque, and a parked state imparting a known braking torque. The system includes a controller to control the states of the brake actuators. In response to a parking signal, when at least one of the brake actuators is in the braked or parked state, the controller performs a parking procedure comprising maintaining a first brake actuator in the braked or parked state whilst changing the state of a second brake actuator from the braked state to the parked state. Also disclosed is an aircraft including the brake control system, a method of controlling a brake system for an aircraft, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium.
