摘要:
A radio frequency transmitting and receiving apparatus comprising a filter and an antenna, wherein the input reactance of the antenna is substantially equal in magnitude and opposite in sign to the output reactance of the filter. This reactance relationship permits the antenna and filter to be collocated and avoids transformation of the input and output impedances to the conventional 50 ohms such that the filter and antenna can be connected with a conventional 50 ohm transmission line.
摘要:
An antenna for a communications device having configurable elements controlled to modify an antenna impedance and/or an antenna resonant frequency to improve performance of the communications device. The antenna impedance is controlled to substantially match to an output impedance of a power amplifier that supplies the antenna with a signal for transmission. The antenna resonant frequency is controlled to overcome the effects of various operating conditions that can detune the antenna or in response to an operable frequency band.

A communications device for receiving a propagating electromagnetic signal representing an information signal. The communications device comprises a first and a second radiator each comprising a plurality of structural elements; a controller for configuring one or more of the structural elements of the first radiator to produce first operating characteristics of the first radiator, the first radiator producing a first received signal responsive to the first operating characteristics; the controller for configuring one or more of the structural elements of the second radiator to produce second operating characteristics of the second radiator different than the first operating characteristics, the second radiator producing a second received signal responsive to the second operating characteristics and a signal processor responsive to at least one of the first and the second received signals for determining the information signal.

One embodiment of the invention relates to an antenna providing a tunable resonant frequency within a low frequency band and further providing a high resonant frequency, the antenna comprises a first radiating structure of a first effective electrical length, a second radiating structure of a second effective electrical length having a fractional integer relationship to a wavelength related to the high resonant frequency and a variable reactance element connecting the first and the second radiating structures, wherein varying a reactance of the variable reactance element tunes the antenna within the low frequency band.
摘要:
A dual band antenna comprising structurally different antenna elements and having common feed. The antenna includes a ground plane, a radiating element and an arm extending from the radiating element. In a first operating mode energy is radiated from the arm, the radiating element and the ground plane. In a second operating mode energy is radiated from the radiating element and the ground plane. Thus the antenna operates in two modes with two different resonant frequencies.

摘要:
An active balancing system for rotating machinery is provided which is light weight, solid state and powered by radiant energy. One or more balance rings coupled to the rotating machinery each have balancing elements which are moved to a selected position by actuators whose operation is controlled according to measured vibration resulting from imbalance of the machinery. The actuators are powered by an electrical energy generating device, such as a photo cell or a photovoltaic element, which is coupled to the machinery and located across an air gap from a source of radiant energy such as an array of light emitting diodes.
