Wireless Access Module With Integrated Antenna

View page
US Patent:
8280307, Oct 2, 2012
Filed:
Jan 13, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/686934
Inventors:
Timothy J. Talty - Beverly Hills MI, US
Alan T. Budyta - Grand Blanc MI, US
Daniel L. Hart - Rochester MI, US
Rod Niner - Royal Oak MI, US
Duane S. Carper - Davison MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
H04B 7/00
US Classification:
455 412, 455500
Abstract:
An integrated wireless antenna/transceiver module that has particular application for use on a vehicle. The module includes a plurality of antenna radiating elements integrated on a circuit board where a separate radiating element is typically provided for each wireless application desirable for the particular vehicle. The module further includes a separate transceiver integrated on the circuit board where each transceiver is electrically coupled to a particular radiating element. Each of the transceivers is also electrically coupled to a local area network hub that receives signals from the transceiver, where the hub multiplexes the signals onto a digital interface to be sent to the particular application in the vehicle.

Control Module Chassis-Integrated Slot Antenna

View page
US Patent:
8299971, Oct 30, 2012
Filed:
Mar 19, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/727298
Inventors:
Timothy J. Talty - Beverly Hills MI, US
Rod Niner - Royal Oak MI, US
Fred W. Huntzicker - Ann Arbor MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
H01Q 1/24
H01Q 13/10
US Classification:
343702, 343767
Abstract:
A control module has a conductive metal chassis with a chassis body and a chassis lid. A non-conductive opening is formed within the chassis body and a tab extends from the chassis lid engaging edges of the non-conductive opening to create a rectangularly-shaped non-conductive aperture with a longitudinal axis having a predetermined length for forming a slot antenna structure. The predetermined length is designed to communicate with a specific communications frequency. The slot antenna structure is signally interconnected to a transceiver housed within the chassis.

Method And System For Managing An Automotive Electrical System

View page
US Patent:
20100102630, Apr 29, 2010
Filed:
Oct 29, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/260752
Inventors:
KARIN L. TURSKI - Rochester Hills MI, US
ROD NINER - Royal Oak MI, US
Assignee:
GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS, INC. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
H02H 7/18
US Classification:
307 107
Abstract:
An automotive electrical system and a method for managing an automotive electrical system including a battery are provided. A state of charge of the battery is determined. An electrical system function is prevented from being performed based on the determined state of charge of the battery.

Analog-To-Digital Fault Detection, Isolation, And Mitigation For A Low-Voltage Communications Network

View page
US Patent:
20190084510, Mar 21, 2019
Filed:
Sep 18, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/707115
Inventors:
- Detroit MI, US
Shengbing Jiang - Rochester Hills MI, US
Dongyi Zhou - Sterling Heights MI, US
David Gumpert - Farmington Hills MI, US
Atul Nagose - Royal Oak MI, US
Rod Niner - Royal Oak MI, US
Aaron D. Motyl - Macomb Township MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B60R 16/03
B60R 21/01
Abstract:
A system includes control modules, a low-voltage communications bus, e.g., a CAN bus of a vehicle, a voltage sensor that measures a bus voltage and outputs 2.5-3.5 VDC high-data and 1.5-2.5 VDC low-data, and a host electronic control unit (ECU). The host ECU detects a recoverable fault using a data pattern in the bus voltage data when the data is outside of a calibrated range, and recalibrates the sensor. Recalibration may be by adjustment to a scaling factor and/or a bias value. Non-recoverable “stuck-at-fault”-type or “out-of-range”-type faults may be detected using the pattern, as may be a ground offset fault. A method includes measuring the bus voltage using the sensor, comparing the output data to a range to detect the fault, and isolating a sensor fault as a recoverable fault using the data pattern when the data is outside of the range. The sensor is then be recalibrated.

Detection Of Ecu Ground Fault With Can Bus Voltage Measurements

View page
US Patent:
20160320441, Nov 3, 2016
Filed:
Aug 27, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/837641
Inventors:
- Detroit MI, US
Shengbing Jiang - Rochester Hills MI, US
Atul Nagose - Royal Oak MI, US
David B. Gumpert - Farmington Hills MI, US
Aaron B. Bloom - Sterling Heights MI, US
Rod Niner - Royal Oak MI, US
International Classification:
G01R 31/08
G01R 31/02
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for detecting ground faults in a communications system. The method includes measuring a predetermined number of voltage points; determining if the measured voltage points represent recessive or dominant bits; identifying which of the predetermined number of voltage points represent inter-frame bits and which represent frame data bits based on whether the measured voltage points are recessive or dominant; calculating a maximum average voltage for the inter-frame bits; calculating an average frame voltage for all dominant bits within a frame; determining a high average dominant voltage count based on a number of frames for which the average frame voltage is greater than a high voltage threshold; and determining if a ground fault exists based on the average frame voltage and the high average dominant voltage count.
