摘要:
The radio-over-fiber (RoF) transponder includes a converter unit adapted to convert RF electrical signals into optical signals and vice versa, and an antenna system electrically coupled to the converter unit. The antenna system includes first and second Z-shaped patch antenna elements formed on an antenna substrate. These patches are adapted to respectively transmit and receive radio-frequency (RF) electromagnetic radiation at a first frequency fA (e.g., 2.4 GHz) over a first picocell. The antenna system also includes a square patch antenna element formed atop the antenna substrate surface between the first and second Z-shaped patch antenna elements. The square patch antenna is adapted to transmit and receive RF electromagnetic radiation at a second frequency fB (e.g., 5.2 GHz) over a second picocell substantially co-located with the first picocell. One or more spaced-apart transponders can be supported by one or more optical fibers to form an array of picocells.

A microwave applicator assembly includes a microwave applicator that excites TE modes and provides a generally circular heating pattern in a lossy dielectric material. The microwave applicator has a processing chamber bounded by a circumferential wall in which a plurality of indents are formed. The microwave applicator assembly may further include a feed waveguide coupled to the microwave applicator for inputting microwaves into the processing chamber. The microwave applicator assembly may further include one or more choking sections in communication with the processing chamber to enhance heating efficiency and reduce microwave leakage.

摘要:
Electromagnetic (EM) drying of a plugged ware is provided that includes subjecting the ware to an axially non-uniform EM radiation field that causes more EM radiation to be dissipated in either of the plugged regions than in the unplugged region. The EM radiation field is provided by a configurable applicator system that includes a feed waveguide and a conveyor path. The feed waveguide includes configurable slots. The configurable applicator system can be set to selectively vary the amount of EM radiation dissipated by each ware along the longitudinal axis of each ware as a function of ware position along the conveying path, thereby enhancing the EM drying process.
摘要:
A radio-over-fiber (RoF) optical fiber cable system with transponder diversity for a RoF wireless picocellular system that includes at least one optical fiber cable. The at least one optical fiber cable supports one or more groups of two or more transponders, wherein the transponders in a given group are arranged to form substantially co-located picocells. The transponders in each transponder group may also have one of two orthogonal antenna polarizations. A diversity combiner optically coupled to each transponder determines respective signal strengths from each transponder in each transponder group. The transponder with the greatest signal strength in a given transponder group is selected to form the picocell for the given group. This allows for the optical fiber cable system to adjust to changes in the signal strength of each picocell, such as caused by a transponder obstruction or failure.

摘要:
A loudspeaker enclosure having an improved full range driver and an improved enclosure assembly. The enclosure assembly comprise a hollow semicircularly curved internal and external casing thereby forming semicircular external baffles; a series of interconnected flat baffles forming an internal baffle placed inside the hollow semicircularly curved casing, the series of flat baffles peripherally bordered by the hollow semicircularly curved casing and enclosed with side panels to form a circuitous labyrinth of a constantly increasing cross section, the labyrinth subsequently splitting and terminating into an exit port for each split pathway, the side panels together with the hollow semicircularly curved casing forming the enclosure's external walls; a compression chamber inside the cylindrical top of the semicircularly curved casing behind the driver, the compression chamber having a back open end facing a sloping back semicircular wall to allow sound waves coming from the driver to travel down the labyrinth and prevent back waves from reflecting back to the driver; and, a base unit for holding and stabilizing the enclosure.
摘要:
A scheme for filtering noise from a signal, in which the noise fluctuates significantly in phase. The signal is sampled to produce N members of a time series and the phase of each signal extracted in the form of a magnitude and a phaser, i.e. for a time series .vertline.x.sub.1 .vertline.e.sup.i.theta..sbsp.1, .vertline.x.sub.2 .vertline.e.sup.i.theta..sbsp.2, . . . , .vertline.x.sub.N .vertline.e.sup.i.theta..sbsp.N, where .vertline.x.sub.n .vertline. is the magnitude of the nth member of the N time samples, and e.sup.i.theta..sbsp.N the phaser for the nth sample. The phasers are added to form a complex value s such that s=.SIGMA..sub.N=1.sup.N �Re(e.sup.i.theta..sbsp.n)+iIm(e.sup.i.theta..sbsp.n)!. Phase noise which fluctuates strongly will tend cancel itself in the sum s, whereas phase resulting from a stable signal will tend to reinforce. Thus the scalar .vertline.s.vertline. will be relatively large in the presence of stable tonals, and small in the presence of noise alone, making it an effective signal filter.
