    摘要: A method for determining orientation of an instrument with respect to earth's gravity. The method includes measuring components of earth's gravity along mutually orthogonal axes. One of the axes is substantially parallel to an axis of the instrument. Tilt of the instrument along two orthogonal axes is measured. One of the tilt axes is substantially parallel to the instrument axis. The instrument is rotated about its axis, and biases of the sensors used to measure the components of earth's gravity perpendicular to the instrument axis are calculated by averaging measurements made by these sensors during rotation. The ratio of gains of these sensors is determined from the range of amplitudes of the output of these sensors during rotation. A roll angle is determined from the bias corrected measurements of components of the earth's gravity perpendicular to the axis. The tilt measurement with respect to the two orthogonal axes is then calibrated by using the calculated roll angle. Gain and offset calibration of all the sensors used to measure the components of the earth's gravity is performed using the calibrated tilt measurements and the orientation is calculated from the gravity measurements after correction for gain and offset of the sensors.

    摘要: A method of extracting a phase and amplitude modulation signal impressed on a carrier is disclosed. The method includes generating the carrier at a frequency which is a multiple of the bandwidth of the modulation signal. The multiple equals 4N+1, where N is an integer. The modulation signal is impressed on the carrier, generating a phase and amplitude modulated carrier, The modulated carrier is digitally sampled at a frequency of four times the bandwidth the modulation signal. The digital sampling is initiated substantially contemporaneous with initiation of generating the carrier. A 90-degree phase shift is applied to the digitally sampled carrier to generate a quadrature component of the digitally sampled carrier. A time delay is applied to the digitally sampled carrier to restore time coincidence between the quadrature component and said digitally sampled carrier, and the phase and amplitude modulation signal is extracted by commutation of the time-delayed digitally sampled carrier and the quadrature component of the digitally sampled carrier. In a particular embodiment of the invention, the phase and amplitude can be extracted from the extracted signal.

    摘要: An analog signal is oversampled as a digital time series. The data samples are divided into an even and an odd sequence. Each sequence is independently low-pass filtered and the resulting two reconstructed sequences will be identical to each other and to the original if no isolated error is present in the original sequence. When the three sequences are not equal, an error exists. By noting the location or sample number of the error, the exact location of the error can be determined and the correctly reconstructed sample value can be used to replace the erroneous sample in the original sequence.
