An apparatus and method to detect consumer choices of products by use of RFID tags associated with a product and RFID readers to detect movement of the tag, which can initiate a presentation of relevant digital media based on the event and tag detected. The present invention is a new method of utilizing digital merchandising software, and RFID tags or other similar emitter identification tags as a potential input technology. The concept of the present invention can be considered a concept of “reverse RFID”, where the RFID reader and supporting CPU keeps track of tags in proximity to the reader and then triggering events based on separation from reader (i.e. the RFID reader no longer detects the presence of an RFID tag because the tag has been moved out of the range of the reader). The movement of the tag out of the detection range of the reader can be the result of a potential customer picking up a product and removing it from the shelf, where the product has an RFID tag associated therewith.

An apparatus for determining a coincidence of a position with a reference position, wherein radio signals from fixedly positioned radio transmitters can be received at the position, having a provider for providing properties of the radio signals of the fixedly positioned radio transmitters at the position, wherein the provided properties of the radio signals include transmitter identifications identifying the radio transmitters, a separator for separating the radio transmitters into a first number of radio transmitters previously recorded transmitter identifications of which at the reference position are identical with transmitter identifications provided at the position, and into a second number of radio transmitters previously recorded transmitter identifications of which at the reference position and transmitter identifications provided at the position are different, and a determiner for determining a measure of matching for the position on the basis of the provided properties of the radio signals, wherein both properties of the first number of radio transmitters and properties of the second number of radio transmitters are taken into account in the determination of a measure of matching, and wherein the properties of the first number of radio transmitters and the properties of the second number of radio transmitters enter the measure of matching differently.

The present invention belongs to the technical field of radar emitter identifications, in particular to a radar emitter sorting and identification method and apparatus based on multiple synchronous compressive transformations. The method comprises: obtaining a time-frequency image of a radar emitter signal through multiple synchronous compressive transformations; preprocessing the time-frequency image and extracting a texture characteristic and a moment characteristic of the time-frequency image and building a characteristic parameter set by combining a signal power spectrum parameter characteristic with a square spectrum complexity characteristic; and regarding the characteristic parameter set, sorting and identifying the signal with a support vector machine (SVM) sorter. The present invention solves the problems of a low rate in sorting and identifying the radar signal, high complexity and the like, under a condition of a currently low signal to noise ratio, such that different modulation types of radar signals can be identified accurately under the condition of the low signal to noise ratio. Further, the present invention has the advantages of good identification effect, high efficiency and good anti-noise property for complexly modulated types of radar signals as well as strong ability of adapting to a change in a parameter of the signal. Therefore, high identification performance can also be achieved under a small sample size, such that it has a certain value of being applied to a project.

A control system for an actuator used to actuate a device. A receiver in the control system receives different transmitter identifiers from multiple transmitters. A central processor coupled to the receiver uses a received transmitter identifier as the address of a memory location. If the control system is set to a write mode when the transmitter identifier is received, a valid bit is set in the addressed memory location to indicate that the transmitter identifier is valid. If the control system is set to read mode when the transmitter identifier is received, the addressed memory location is examined to determine if a valid bit has been set. If the valid bit has been set, the central processor transmits a signal for actuating the device.

A system and method for providing aiding information to a satellite positioning system (“SPS”) receiver. A digital satellite radio system satellite receives aiding information communicated from a positioning system. The digital satellite radio system broadcasts the aiding information in the data signals it broadcasts to its subscribers. The subscribers receive the aiding information at satellite radio receivers and communicate the aiding information to the SPS receiver. The data signals may also be communicated to terrestrial repeaters for re-broadcast at a higher power. The terrestrial repeaters may input a transmitter identifier to permit the satellite radio receiver to determine a geographical location of the terrestrial repeater as its own.

A method is provided for determining a scan strategy to receive data for a digital unit associated with an electronic support measure receiver. The receiver scans a surrounding environment to detect and receive emitted signals while utilizing the digital unit to improve emitter identification. The digital unit is provided with the data according to requirements of digital signal processing algorithms implemented by the unit.

A method and system for identifying a distributed model for a nonlinear system represented by a block diagram. The distributed model identification can be achieved by first replacing all signal links across the block diagram with elastic links by augmenting each input port of a plurality of blocks with a signal generator that produces a replacement signal value (sig) for the value received by each of the plurality of blocks. Thereafter, the difference between the received value and the replacement signal values can be calculated and outputted as an auxiliary signal to control elasticity of the elastic links. Then, instead of global identification of the block diagram parameters, i.e. treating the diagram as a whole, the block parameters are identified locally based on the local data. Simultaneously, the auxiliary output signals are forced to vanish. Consequently, the solution found is also a solution to the global identification method.

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for position replacing and identification code changing of emitters of a TPMS system. The apparatus comprises a multimedia playing device and a receiver. The multimedia playing device outputs an emitter transposition protocol frame to the receiver when receiving an emitter position replacing instruction and selection of two emitters in need of replacing of positions. The multimedia playing device outputs an identification code changing protocol frame to the receiver when receiving an identification code changing instruction and a changed emitter identification code from an input device. A memory of the receiver stores a plurality of emitter positions and identification codes. Positions of the two emitters in the memory are replaced according to the emitter transposition protocol frame, and the identification code of one emitter in the memory is changed according to the identification code changing protocol frame. Compared with conventional operation modes, a scheme provided by the invention has the advantages of low cost and simplified operation.
