A vehicle control system which can ensure high reliability, real-time processing, and expandability with a simplified ECU configuration and a low cost by backing up an error through coordination in the entire system without increasing a degree of redundancy of individual controllers beyond the least necessary level. The vehicle control system comprises a sensor controller for taking in sensor signals indicating a status variable of a vehicle and an operation amount applied from a driver, a command controller for generating a control target value based on the sensor signals taken in by the sensor controller, and an actuator controller for receiving the control target value from the command controller and operating an actuator to control the vehicle, those three controller being interconnected via a network. The actuator controller includes a control target value generating unit for generating a control target value based on the sensor signals taken in by the sensor controller and received by the actuator controller via the network when the control target value generated by the command controller is abnormal, and controls the actuator in accordance with the control target value generated by the control target value generating unit.

Vehicle Control System

In a method for generating a data unit conforming to a first communication protocol, a first field and a second field to be included in a preamble of the data unit are generated. The first field includes a first set of one or more information bits that indicate a duration of the data unit and is formatted such that the first field allows a receiver device that conforms to a second communication protocol to determine the duration of the data unit. The second field includes a second set of one or more information bits that indicate to a receiver device that conforms to the first communication protocol that the data unit conforms to the first communication protocol. The first field and the second field are modulated using a modulation scheme specified for a field corresponding to the first field and the second field, respectively, by the second communication protocol.

Techniques for supporting operation of relay stations in wireless communication systems are described. In an aspect, a bitmap may be sent by a base station and/or a relay station to identify subframes of at least two types in multiple radio frames. For example, the bitmap may indicate whether each subframe covered by the bitmap is of a first type or a second type. UEs may use the bitmap to control their operation. For example, a UE may perform channel estimation or measurement for the subframes of the first type and may skip channel estimation and measurement for the subframes of the second type. In another aspect, a base station may transmit data and/or control information on resources not used by a relay station to transmit a reference signal. This may avoid interference to the reference signal from the relay station, which may improve performance for UEs communicating with the relay station.

The set contains any bits punctured from an original transmission corresponding to the retransmission. Other embodiments transmit, by a transmitter using hybrid automatic repeat-request (HARQ), a packet containing at least one punctured bit, select—without differently re-encoding data bits—at least one bit from any in a set to forward in at least one re-transmission of an incorrectly received packet, and retransmit the packet with at least one different punctured bit.

Position engine (pe) feedback to improve gnss receiver performance

A system and method for controlling a navigation receiver is disclosed. A current position is determined using the navigation receiver and then the navigation receiver is placed in a power-save mode. The current position is updated using information from position sensors. The navigation receiver is temporarily placed in an active mode at intervals to determine an intermediate position. The current position is also updated using the intermediate position. The navigation receiver may be a GNSS receiver, a cellular receiver, a WiFi receiver, or another position-fixing device. The position sensors may be accelerometers, gyroscopes, electronic compasses or mapping data. A power-save controller controls the power-save or active mode of the navigation receiver. A sensor conditioning circuit pre-processes the data from the position sensors before providing the data to the power-save controller. During the power-save mode, an RF subsystem and/or a baseband subsystem of the navigation receiver may be turned off.
