摘要： An energy management system facilitates the transfer of high frequency energy coupled into an implanted abandoned lead at a selected RF frequency or frequency band, to an energy dissipating surface. This is accomplished by conductively coupling the implanted abandoned lead to the energy dissipating surface of an abandoned lead cap through an energy diversion circuit including one or more passive electronic network components whose impedance characteristics are at least partially tuned to the implanted abandoned lead's impedance characteristics.

摘要： One or more inductors and one or more capacitors are physically disposed relative to one another in series and are electrically connected to one another in parallel to form a bandstop filter. Chip inductors and chip capacitors having spaced apart conductive terminals are physically arranged in end-to-end abutting relation to minimize electrical potential between adjacent conductive terminals. The bandstop filter may be hermetically sealed within a biocompatible container for use with an implantable lead or electrode of a medical device. The values of the inductors and the capacitors are selected such that the bandstop filter is resonant at one or more selected frequencies, such as an MRI pulsed frequency.

摘要： A shielded three-terminal flat-through EMI/energy dissipating filter includes an active electrode plate through which a circuit current passes between a first terminal and a second terminal, a first shield plate on a first side of the active electrode plate, and a second shield plate on a second side of the active electrode plate opposite the first shield plate.

摘要： An antenna includes a differential transmission line and a center conductor, where the center conductor is at least partially contained within the differential transmission line and at least partially protruding therefrom. A first conductive flat element is connected to the center conductor and a flat meander-line structure is integral with the first conductive flat element.

摘要： Methods and systems for 3D comb filtering of a video signal are provided. Aspects of the method may include generating a plurality of interpolated pixels for corresponding video samples for a first video frame, determining at least one direction of least bandwidth among the video samples and the interpolated pixels, and blending combing according to the determined direction of least bandwidth. A plurality of interpolated pixels for corresponding video samples may be generated in a first pixel line of the first video frame. The plurality of interpolated pixels in the first pixel line may be generated, so that each of the plurality of interpolated pixels in the first pixel line is one quarter cycle phase-shifted from a corresponding adjacent pixel in the first pixel line.

摘要： A bracket for securing an antenna to a ceiling grid system has a first opening to allow the bracket to be secured to a connector mechanically coupled to the ceiling grid system and a second opening to allow an electrical connection to pass therethrough. The second opening is offset a distance from the first opening to allow the electrical connection to extend upwardly without being obstructed by the ceiling grid.

摘要： Separation of luma and chroma in a video. In an embodiment, values on a current line of the sampled video signal, at ¼-period intervals, are compared with values on a previous line of the sampled video signal, at ¼-period intervals. Values on the current line of the sampled video signal are compared to values on a subsequent line of the sampled video signal. This gives information about the vertical frequency content. Values on the current line are compared with values having the same chroma phase on the same line to provide information about horizontal frequency content. The data of vertical and horizontal frequency logic are used by the decision logic to determine the appropriateness of combing based on these comparisons. If combing is not appropriate, the signal is bandpass filtered instead of combed. The low-pass and combing filters are applied to the original signal, not an interpolated or resampled signal.

摘要翻译： 在视频中分离亮度和色度。 在一个实施例中，以1/4周期间隔将采样视频信号的当前行上的值与采样视频信号的前一行的值以1/4周期间隔进行比较。 将采样视频信号的当前行上的值与采样视频信号的后续行上的值进行比较。 这提供了有关垂直频率内容的信息。 将当前行上的值与同一行上具有相同色度相位的值进行比较，以提供有关水平频率内容的信息。 决策逻辑使用垂直和水平频率逻辑的数据来确定基于这些比较的梳理的适当性。 如果梳理不合适，则信号被带通滤波，而不是梳理。 低通和梳状滤波器被应用于原始信号，而不是内插或重采样信号。
