Abstract:
The claimed subject matter provides systems and/or methods that facilitate combining analog and digital gain for utilization with CMOS sensor imagers. The analog gain can provide coarse gain steps and the digital gain can provide finer gain steps between adjacent coarse analog gain values. Further, since analog gain can suffer from low precision, dispersion, etc., on-chip calibration can be implemented to calibrate the analog and digital gain. For example, a digital amplifier can be calibrated to compensate for differences between actual and nominal analog gains associated with one or more analog amplifiers.
Abstract:
In a survey operation, survey measurement data obtained at each location is transmitted in real time as the measurement is made to avoid the limitations of the disk or other storage medium used in saving the data, to avoid loss or corruption of the data prior to the disk being delivered to its final destination, and to allow users to immediately view the results of the measurements while the rovers are still out in the field and readily capable of redoing measurements or supplementing the results with additional measurement points.
Abstract:
An extended Kalman filter (EKF) is combined with a fixed epoch smoother (FES) to produce a new variable lag smoother (VLS). The fixed epoch lags EKF measurement time-tags with variable time lag. The combination of EKF and FES is referred to herein as a variable lag smoother (VLS).
