    Abstract: A LIDAR optical remote sensing system and method analyzes the falling edge profile of a return LIDAR signal that may be indicative of an object or an aerosol cloud, which is generally more diffuse. Using the falling edge profile permits burnthrough to an object that may be obscured by the aerosol cloud. The profile is compared against at least one threshold that may correspond, in various embodiments, to a negative slope of the falling edge, an integrated power under the falling edge, or a range estimate error for varying transmitted power values, varying transmitted pulse lengths and/or varying receiver detector field of view values.

    Abstract: Alignment of a clock signal to a particular phase is described. In one aspect, a method includes receiving an incoming clock signal and multiple phased clock signals, each of the phased clock signals having a different phase and a substantially same phase offset from another phased clock signal. At least one detection signal based on the incoming and phased clock signals is provided, and one or more errors contributed by noise in at least the incoming clock signal are corrected in the at least one detection signal. Based on the at least one detection signal, one of the phased clock signals is selected as the most closely aligned of the phased clock signals to the predetermined clock phase, and the selected clock signal is output.

    Abstract: An image editing application (or a blur classification module thereof) may automatically estimate a coherent defocus blur map from a single input image. The application may represent the blur spectrum as a differentiable function of radius r, and the optimal radius may be estimated by optimizing the likelihood function through a gradient descent algorithm. The application may generate the spectrum function over r through polynomial-based fitting. After fitting, the application may generate look-up tables to store values for the spectrum and for its first and second order derivatives, respectively. The use of these tables in the likelihood optimization process may significantly reduce the computational costs of a given blur estimation exercise. The application may minimize an energy function that includes a data term, a smoothness term, and a smoothness parameter that is adaptive to local image content. The output blur map may be used for image object depth estimation.

    Abstract: A signal transmitting circuit includes a driving circuit, and a plurality of receiving circuits receiving signals transmitted from the driving circuit. Each of the receiving circuits is coupled to the driving circuit consecutively via a transmission line. A voltage regulator is coupled to the driving circuit and the receiving circuits and provides power to the driving circuit and the receiving circuits. A number of capacitors are coupled between the voltage regulator and the ground for filtering the noise of the power output from the voltage regulator. The capacitors between the voltage regulator and the north bridge chipset filtering the noise of the power output from the voltage regulator maintain signal integrity as the terminal resistor does. It is of advantage that the signal transmitting circuit is simple to manufacture and very suitable for mass production.

    Abstract: A switched-capacitor ripple-smoothing filter includes a first pair of capacitors. The filter is configured such that either capacitor in the first pair may be reset and have a terminal coupled to a first input port and such that the remaining capacitor in the first pair is isolated from the first input port and has the terminal coupled to a first output port while the other capacitor is being charged. The filter further includes a second pair of capacitors, the filter being configured such that either capacitor in the second pair may be reset and have a terminal coupled to a second input port and such that the remaining capacitor in the second pair is isolated from the second input port and has the terminal coupled to a second output port while the other capacitor in the second pair is being charged. Advantageously, the filter is configured such that the capacitors in the first and second pair are reset responsive to the assertion of a single reset signal.
