Sep 4, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/947057

Inventors:

David E. Lane - New York NY

Assignee:

The Rail Network, Inc. - New York NY

International Classification:

G08G 100

US Classification:

340901, 340905, 455517

Abstract:

The transit vehicle multimedia broadcast system comprises a multimedia broadcast system for broadcasting stored audio, video, graphic and/or text messages to passengers on transit vehicles that travel a predetermined route in areas where traditional multimedia broadcast is not available, such as in subway tunnels. The system includes at least one storage device along the predetermined route that stores multimedia data and wirelessly transmits the data to at least one transit transceiver located on the transit vehicles while the vehicle are stationary at a location corresponding to the location of the storage device. The multimedia can be stored on the vehicle and transmitted using one of a plurality of transmission devices to a plurality of video graphic display devices located in the transit vehicles. The broadcast can also be wirelessly transmitted via predetermined FM or wireless frequencies for receipt via passenger radios, laptop computers including wireless connection, cell phones, or any other device capable of receiving the FM or wireless transmission of multimedia. The multimedia data can include graphics, text, audio, video, or any combination thereof.

Inventors:

David Lane - New York NY, US

International Classification:

H04Q007/20

US Classification:

455/414100, 455/412100, 455/456300

Abstract:

The present transit wireless broadcast system wirelessly broadcasts multimedia content to passengers traveling in transit vehicles. The multimedia content stored on a storage device is retrieved, converted to a predetermined wireless frequency and the broadcast to the passengers. The wirelessly transmitted multimedia content may be received by devices and within the transit vehicle for delivery of the multimedia content to the passengers. The multimedia content may be prerecorded content or may be wireless received at the transit vehicle, converted, and stored on a storage device.

International Classification:

G06F 1546

US Classification:

364502

Abstract:

A method of estimating pH titration curves for use in the adaptive control of pH in a process, comprises gathering data points which each represent the ratio between a reagent added to the process and a flowrate to the process at a measured pH, storing the data points in a bin system according to pH, and using the stored data points to create a model of the titration curve for use in controlling the addition of reagent. Older points are replaced by newer points during the process to continuously update the model. The model was used to generate a gain schedule for operating a PI controller that is used in adding a reagent to the process.

International Classification:

US Classification:

12319012

Abstract:

A rotary valve system mounted to an internal combustion engines and method of operating the system primarily comprises a rotary valve mounted within a valve sleeve, which is in turn mounted within a longitudinal bore extending through an intake and exhaust manifold. Controllers vary the rotational and axial position of the valve sleeve, which provides the capability of adjusting the amount of fuel mixture entering the combustion chambers of the engine and the timing of the intake of such mixture. The method of operation includes in taking fuel mixture into, and evacuating exhaust gas from, an internal combustion engine, wherein fuel mixture flows into the manifold, is directed across the valve sleeve, through the rotary valve, across the sleeve, and into a combustion chamber. After combustion of the fuel mixture, the exhaust gases are directed from the combustion chamber through the sleeve, through the rotary valve and into an exhaust chamber. Then the exhaust gases flow through the sleeve and into an associated manifold exhaust passage.
