The trend amongmanufacturers today is to produce smaller batches of more varied products. Without CIMautomation, this trend would result in higher costs associated with increased setup time

The switch will connect to the video users; in this scenario each power user has itown unshared collisionless connection to the switch.

In units of Hz, these peak frequencies are: f fk = k s = kf1 , k=0,1,…D-1 (3) Dwhere f s is the sampling frequency. The magnitude response of the FIR comb filter with D=10 anda=0.2 is shown in Figure 2. The noise reduction ratio (NRR) of this filter is NRR = (1 − a ) / 2 = 0.4 ,which corresponds to a 10 log10 (1 / NRR ) = 4 dB improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). A widely
