Abstract:
A system to supply power to an electronic system, comprises a set of one or more power units each configured to transform an input voltage into an output voltage; and a line regulator coupled to a power unit and configured to modulate a duty cycle of the power unit and a load regulator configured to provide a second control signal to a power unit to selectively enable the power unit based on load information provided by the electronic system.
Abstract:
A method of forming an elongated tubular blank into a tubular structural component having a predetermined outer configuration, the method comprising: providing a shape imparting shell formed from a low permeability, rigid material which includes an inner surface defining the predetermined shape, plugging the open ends of the tubular blank, placing the plugged blank into the shell, and forming the tubular blank into the tubular component by inductively heating axial portions of the blank by axially spaced conductors adjacent the shell while or before forcing gas at a high pressure into the plugged blank until the blank conforms to at least a portion of the inner surface of the shell to form the structural component.
Abstract:
A 384X-based burst mode PWM controller includes an oscillator to generate a pulse signal of a constant frequency, an output circuit to generate an output signal based on the pulse signal, an error amplifier to generate an amplified error signal, a logic control current source connecting to a current sense input of a comparator, the comparator which compares the voltage of the current sense input with the voltage of the error signal to generate a comparison signal, a PWM latch to generate a pulse control signal corresponding to the pulse signal and based on the comparison signal. The pulse control signal controls the output circuit and the logic control current source in opposite conditions of turning on and off. The controller can replace 384X directly and save energy.

Abstract:
The present application proposes an airborne electromagnetic signal observation device and a system carried by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The device includes an inner frame, an outer frame and a flexible support that are connected to each other. The device and the system can enhance the stability of the sensor in flight and greatly suppress motion noise.
Abstract:
Provided are a geological target identification method and apparatus based on image information fusion. The method includes: generating a first digital sectional map and a second digital sectional map of the same depth from a first data volume and a second data volume, respectively; configuring data of the first digital sectional map and the second digital sectional map on a universal coordinate system to form a first registered color map and a second registered color map; pre-processing the first registered color map and the second registered color map to form a first source image and a second source image; decomposing the first source image and the second source image respectively into a low frequency sub-band image and a high frequency sub-band image; fusing the two low frequency sub-band images; fusing the two high frequency sub-band images, reconstructing the fused low frequency sub-band image and the fused high frequency sub-band image, and segmenting the occurrence position of a geological body in the fused image by using a segmentation method to obtain a spatial occurrence form of a detection target.
Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for generating statistical views in a database system. In one embodiment, a request is received to execute a database workload. One or more constraints pertaining to executing the database workload is retrieved. The database workload is evaluated to generate multiple statistical view candidates. The statistical view candidates are refined based on the one or more constraints. One or more statistical views are then generated based on the refined statistical view candidates.
