A contact-based calibration technique using a robot-mounted calibration probe, has been experimented with. The probe is to be implemented by utilizing a wrist-mounted force sensor. The technique is based on constraining the sampled robot joint poses to those where the probe end is in controlled contact with a planar surface. The paper illustrates how the technique may be used to achieve a joint...

r down tò 2 , it is a weakly monotone increasing function. But in a monotone function, a value can only appear once (or in one continuous range). Since the function is divided into two weakly monotone regions, a xed value can appear at most twice (or in two continuous ranges). This suuces to show that there can be at most two intersections between (I r) and O r , one in each weakly monotone reg...

Yeshurun and Levy (2003) [Transient spatial attention degrades temporal resolution. Psychological Science, 14, 225 -231.] have suggested that visual attention enhances the activation of the parvocellular system and thus delays the perceived offset of a stimulus. We tested this assumption in a spatial cueing paradigm in which participants responded to stimulus offset. Consistent with this assump...

A new frequency offset compensation technique for the MIPI Low Latency Interface (LLI) application is proposed. The proposed clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit has a composite structure of bang-bang and oversampling phase detectors with an offset estimator. Digitally estimated frequency offset is used to determine the gain of the 2nd order digital CDR. An elastic FIFO for the oversampled mul...

The key contribution of this work is to develop transmitter and receiver algorithms in discrete-time for turbocoded offset QPSK signals. The proposed synchronization and detection techniques perform effectively at an SNR per bit close to 1.5 dB, in the presence of a frequency offset as large as 30 % of the symbol-rate and a clock offset of 25 ppm (parts per million). Due to the use of up-sampli...

In this paper, we propose the residual carrier frequency offset tracking and sampling clock offset tracking algorithm that can be used in IEEE 802.11a and HIPERLAN Type 2 systems. Above Wireless LAN systems has short and long preambles, the carrier frequency offset is estimated and compensated. In case that the frame length is long, however, residual carrier frequency offset induces the severe ...

Surface offset is one of the most useful operations in Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD). However, an implementation of this operator is not trivial primarily because the offset surface, in general, does not have the same representation as the original surface. Hence, it is dif®cult or impossible to represent an exact offset in a system with limited surface forms. For this reason, some CAG...
