In a wireless telecommunication network, hybrid (GPS and AFLT) mobile stations provide redundant position information, which is used for time base calibration and/or correction of position measurements. Every mobile station (i.e., handset or cellular phone) can be used as a test instrument, and data from regular wireless phone calls can be supplemented by data from drive-around field test units. The time base and/or position offsets are stored in a base station almanac data base along with other information used for obtaining the most reliable position fixes under a variety of conditions. An automatic system is provided for creating, updating, and maintaining the base station almanac data base. The automatic system not only characterizes the performance of the wireless network but also characterizes the performance of the position determination system. The automatic system provides performance feedback to system operators and customers.

Control pulses having a first frequency are supplied to the switches of an inverter by a controller. During initial operation of the inverter, however, a softstart circuit supplied pulses to the inverter switches of the inverter wherein the soft-start pulses have a second frequency. The second frequency is constant and higher than the first frequency.

A semiconductor package is present along with an associated method. The package comprises a substrate with a top surface and a bottom surface, the substrate having a plurality of electrically conductive vias extending from the top surface of the substrate to the bottom surface of the substrate. A semiconductor device having an active surface, the active surface having a plurality of bonding pads, is attached to the substrate by an adhesive that bas holes that align with the vias. The vias are also aligned with the bonding pads. Solder serves to electrically and mechanically couple each of the bonding pads with a corresponding via. Each of the vias, in turn, is coupled to a solder ball formed on the bottom of the substrate.

An inverter for use in a variable-speed, constant-frequency power conversion system of the type used in an aircraft, for example, includes a four subinverter pairs, each of which generates a respective set of waveforms. The four subinverter pairs are connected to a summing transformer having eight sets pairs of primary windings and eight sets of secondary windings coupled to the primary windings. A regulator is coupled to the output of the summing transformer and varies the phase angles between the waveforms generated by the four subinverter pairs based upon the voltage and current at the output of the summing transformer in order to regulate the voltage at the output of the summing transformer.

A regulator circuit for an inverter having first and second inverter sections that develop first and second AC waveforms which are phase displaced by a variable angle .alpha. wherein the first and second AC waveforms are combined to produce AC output power includes a reference signal generator that develops a reference signal having a transition between two states at a first time, a memory storing a plurality of words each representing a value of .alpha. add a circuit for accessing the memory with a deviation signal such that the memory provides a word at an output thereof. A counter is provided and a timing circuit causes the counter to load the word at a time prior to the first time. At the first time a gating circuit provides a plurality of clock pulses to a clock input of the counter whereby the counter decrements the loaded word as the clock pulses are received by the counter. A zero detect circuit and a one-shot coupled to the output of the counter produce a synchronization signal having a transition between two states at a second time subsequent to the first time when the loaded word is decremented to a particular value. The first and second inverter sections are controlled in accordance with the reference signal and the synchronization signal so that the parameter of the AC power is maintained substantially at a particular level.

An inverter for use in a power conversion system of the type used in an aircraft, for example, includes a first subinverter pair that generates a first pair of waveforms, a second subinverter pair that generates a second pair of waveforms, and a third subinverter pair that generates a third pair of waveforms. The three subinverter pairs are connected to a summing transformer having first, second and third transformers. A regulator is coupled to the output of the summing transformer and varies the phase angles between the three pairs of waveforms generated by the three subinverter pairs based upon the voltage and current at the output of the summing transformer in order to regulate the voltage at the output of the summing transformer.
