    摘要: A method for determining a location of remotely emplaced objects. The method including: (a) scanning a field for one or more remotely emplaced objects with a reference source signal from a reference source; (b) detecting the signal at one or more orientation sensors associated with each of the one or more remotely emplaced objects; (c) determining an angular direction of each of the one or more remotely emplaced objects relative to the reference source based on the signal received at the one or more orientation sensors associated with each of the one or more remotely emplaced objects; (d) directing a range signal from the reference source towards each of the remotely emplaced objects at a corresponding determined angular direction; (e) in response to the range signal, transmitting a response signal from each of the remotely emplaced objects to the reference source; and (f) determining a range for each of the one or more remotely emplaced objects relative to the reference source at the determined angular direction based at least partially on the range and response signals.

    摘要: A method for actuating a motor including: separating feed-forward signals corresponding to motion independent components of a required actuating force/torque from motion dependent components; filtering the motion dependent components of the feed-forward signals to at least reduce high frequency signals generated due to feedback signals; and either not filtering or filtering with a low pass filter having a higher cut off frequency the motion independent components of the feed-forward signals to at least reduce higher frequency noise and components; wherein higher frequency components of electronic power amplifier signals corresponding to the motion independent components of the actuating forces/torques are not eliminated by the low pass filter, thereby ensuring that the reaction forces/torques are provided to actuate the motor.
