Abstract: A method of measuring distance between a target and a receiver in a ranging system may comprise transmitting a first pulse at a first time determined by a sampling clock in a receiver, receiving the first pulse, sampling the first pulse at a predetermined amplitude threshold using the sampling clock and determining the time of arrival of the first pulse in terms of a number of periods of the sampling clock after the first pulse was transmitted. This may be repeated for a second pulse and the average times of arrival of the first and second pulses are determined to obtain an averaged estimated time of arrival. The distance between the target and the receiver may be determined by multiplying the averaged estimated time of arrival by the speed of propagation of the transmitted pulses. There is also disclosed an apparatus for measuring distance.

Abstract: An audio-visual reproduction apparatus is provided. The audio-visual reproduction apparatus includes a visual display screen and an ultrasonic transducer array having two or more transducer elements arranged around the periphery of the screen for generating an ultrasonic beam modulated with an audio-frequency signal. Non-linear effects in the air demodulate the audio-signal to generate an audio beam propagating perpendicular to the screen. Such an integration of audio and vision may make the user feel as if the sound is being generated from the display screen when he or she is watching it, and also may project the sound towards a target user and seldom, or never, disturb unrelated persons. The ultrasonic transducer array may be made up of independent transducer elements, or may comprise two or more sub-arrays of transducer elements.

Abstract: A receiver for CDMA signals, in which data intended for transmission to multiple intended receivers is spread by respective orthogonal spreading codes and scrambled by an aperiodic random scrambling code, includes a processing branch for each of a number of base stations from which the receiver may pick up CDMA signals. Each processing branch performs both channel equalisation based on a set of weights for that branch, and a decoding operation. The outputs of the branches are combined to produce a combined signal which is used both for determining the data intended for the receiver, and in a feedback loop to improve the sets of weights. The receiver is reliable even in the presence of mutipath fading and during soft handover.

Abstract: A system and method for determining position of, for example, a robot based on reflected signals comprises a transmitter for transmitting signals in a number of directions within a range of directions and a receiver for receiving echoes of the signals from any direction in the range. The transmitter has a first rotatable antenna and the receiver has a second rotatable antenna which is mechanically couplable to the second antenna. The received echoes are processed by a processor to derive echo data signals indicative of the distance of the system to one or more reflective surfaces and the direction of the reflective surface(s) relative to the system. The processor is arranged to determine the position of the system relative to a starting position from the derived echo data signals indicative of the distance of the system to the reflective surface(s) and the direction of the reflective surface(s) relative to the system.

Abstract: A local positioning system is proposed for wirelessly locating an object using existing features within a static environment, such as walls, as the references for determining the position of the system. An antenna 16 attached to the object transmits RF signals which are reflected by the surroundings. During a training mode, the reflected signals are used to train a neural network 22, 43 to map the position of the object to the characteristics of the reflected signals. During a working mode, the trained neural network is to identify the position of the object based on reflected signals in working mode. Optionally, the reflected signals may be subject to a clustering process before input to the neural network.
