摘要:
A navigation-satellite receiver support data network comprises a server connected to the Internet to provide initialization information to clients for faster cold starts. The server includes a GPS receiver that provides for tracking of a constellation of navigation satellites. When a client is started cold, time and frequency are initially unknown to it. Test messages are sent back and forth over the Internet and a path delay time is computed from the average of the quickest transit times. This yields the offset time between the server's time system and the client's time system. The server sends current time information to the client, and the computed path delay is added. The client can then compute correct time from the server and path delay information, and thereby select much sooner which satellites are correct to search.

A navigation-satellite receiver comprises a crystal oscillator that is affected by local ambient temperature in a repeatable way. After locking onto a GPS satellite, the receiver is used to calculate the true frequency bias of the local crystal oscillator. GPS-system lock provides an atomic-clock basis for such measurements of true frequency. The current temperature of the crystal is measured and recorded in association with the true frequency bias measurement. The data is then used to generate a ninth-order polynomial that describes the frequency drift of the crystal over temperature. Then during receiver initialization when the local reference oscillator is not in lock, the ambient temperature is measured and used to index the ninth-order polynomial to estimate the actual crystal frequency. Such frequency estimate is then used as a basis to find signal from visible SV's in an overhead constellation.

A management system includes a variable-period setting unit that sets a variable period in which quality-control values vary. Then, a retrieving unit retrieves events sandwiching the variable period. The events can be a maintenance of the semiconductor manufacturing device and/or a change of a correction value. An analysis-period setting unit sets an analysis period for analyzing a cause of variation of the quality-control values between the events retrieved by the retrieving unit.

In an ion implantation apparatus according to the present invention, ions are extracted from an ion source with the aid of extraction electrodes. The ions thus extracted are analyzed in mass by means of a mass analysis magnet apparatus and a mass analysis slit, so that the required ions are implanted in a substrate. Magnets for generating cusp magnetic fields are serially disposed along an ion beam line extending from the front part to the rear part of the mass analysis magnet apparatus.
