摘要:
An apparatus and method for signal separation and SINR improvement is disclosed. In particular, disclosed is an iterative technique whereby a noisy signal, that may include signals from one or more distinct emitters, is first improved through an SINR improvement technique. Next, one signal from the noisy signal is identified and a reference signal substantially free of noise and interference is generated for this signal, and then this reference signal is subtracted from the noisy signal. This process is repeated until no other signals may be identified. In this way, the signal with the highest SINR may be identified first and then removed from the original signal. As such, the identified signal is no longer present as interference for the remaining signals, thus improving each of the remaining signals' respective SINRs.

An apparatus for identifying a scrambling code used in the received CDMA-based signal. The apparatus includes a frame timing estimation unit configured to estimate a frame timing of the received CDMA-based signal, a searching unit configured to search for and select a scrambling code seed based on at least the estimated frame timing, and a seed evaluation unit configured to determine if the selected scrambling code seed is the correct seed used in the received CDMA-based signal. The searching unit is further configured to provide an identified scrambling code seed based on an indication from the seed evaluation unit that the selected scrambling code seed is the correct seed. The apparatus may also include a scrambling code generator configured to generate the scrambling code from the identified seed.

Disclosed is an apparatus for estimating the features of a radio frequency signal including a reference signal generator configured for generating a reference signal from a complex signal and one or more feature estimation units configured to generate one or more feature estimates from the reference signal and the complex signal. Techniques for creating reference signals from both signals spread by a scrambling code and FM signals are discussed.

An apparatus for identifying a specific emitter in the presence of noise and/or interference is disclosed. The apparatus includes a sensor configured to sense radio frequency signal data, the signal data containing noise and signal from at least one emitter, a reference estimation unit configured to estimate a reference signal relating to the signal transmitted by one emitter, a feature estimation unit configured to generate one or more estimates of one or more feature from the reference signal and the signal transmitted by that particular emitter, and an emitter identifier configured to identify the signal transmitted by that particular emitter as belonging to a specific device using one or more feature estimates. The emitter identifier identifies the signal transmitted by that particular emitter as belonging to a specific device using Gaussian Mixture Models and the Bayesian decision engine. The apparatus may also include an SINR enhancement unit configured to enhance the SINR of the data before the reference estimation unit estimates the reference signal.
摘要:
The present invention is a method for modifying a current gas or diesel engine, or building a new one, which utilizes a magnetic field produced by solenoids in the cylinders or cylinder cover to exert force on a modified piston to turn a crankshaft. The present invention removes the need for fuel and eliminates emissions. The present invention utilizes the alternator in normal operation to provide the current through the solenoids to produce magnetic fields. Vehicle speed is controlled by changing the amount of current going through the solenoid. This process changes the magnitude of the originating and induced magnetic fields of the solenoid and piston. The operation of the vehicle remains similar to traditional operation, except the greatly beneficial aspects of not needing fuel or producing emissions.
