01 Jun 1991TL;DR: A description of the simulation model and the on-ground performances validation of the Acquisition and Tracking (PAT) subsystem and of the European SILEX program is presented.
Abstract: A description of the simulation model and the on-ground performances validation of the Acquisition and Tracking (PAT) subsystem and of the European SILEX program is presented. The SILEX scenario is composed of two terminals mounted on LEO orbit (SPOT 4) and geostationary orbit (ARTEMIS) spacecrafts. The PAT subsystem is in charge of the initialization of the link, of the tracking of the incoming beam and of the pointing of the emitted laser beam. A short description of the retained strategies (phases of the PAT mission and operating modes) and functional architecture (control laws and sampling frequencies) is presented. In order to validate the PAT performance assessment, a complete simulation software is developed. The model (equipment modeling, dynamical simulation of the terminal structure, and operating modes management) and the associated outputs are examined in detail. The chosen design and architecture of the PAT validation on a system testbed (STB) are described. The validation of a pointing system for optical intersatellite communication, thanks to the combination of simulations and STB measurements, is shown.

07 Jul 1997TL;DR: In this article, a radio terminal adapted to calls with a public mobile telephony network supporting voice transmission channels and data channels, and an extension unit which can be connected to a data interface of the terminal and allowing calls on the data channels of the network.
Abstract: The equipment comprises a radio terminal adapted to calls with a public mobile telephony network supporting voice transmission channels and data channels, and an extension unit which can be connected to a data interface of the terminal and allowing calls on the data channels of the network. This extension unit comprises a microphone, an earphone, a vocoder and a ciphering module. It has the same external appearance as a conventional mobile radio terminal. In a security call mode, the signal coming from the microphone of the extension unit is processed by the vocoder and then by the ciphering module in order to produce data sent to the data interface of the terminal, and the data received from the data interface of the terminal are processed by the ciphering module and by the vocoder in order to control the earphone of the extension unit.

23 May 1989TL;DR: The authors address the problem of speech enhancement in a car environment by describing the method used to characterize the noisy environment and the main effects of the noise on speech processing for speech recognition and transmission.
Abstract: The authors address the problem of speech enhancement in a car environment. After describing the method used to characterize the noisy environment, the main effects of the noise on speech processing for speech recognition and transmission are presented. Most of the noise reduction methods proposed in past years have been developed and evaluated in the case of additive white noise. The authors have found that the results obtained by this approach, without modification, are poor. With preprocessing of the noisy signal, improvements are shown, especially for speech recognition. >

07 Dec 1979TL;DR: In this article, an installation for vehicles moving automatically, without human intervention, between starting and arrival points along a predetermined path consisting of stops, junctions, crossings, inlets, outlets of elevators, etc.
Abstract: An installation for vehicles moving automatically, without human intervention, between starting and arrival points along a predetermined path consisting of stops, junctions, crossings, inlets, outlets of elevators, etc. An installation in which each self-propelling vehicle is adapted to carry a load and has steering-wheels and a central driving-wheel as well as optical detectors designed to read an optical track laid out on the ground and furnishing passive driving signals, the vehicle also being provided with an ultrasonic emitter-receiver assembly working as a radar and operative to detect obstacles along the path of movement of the vehicle.
