摘要:
A detuning apparatus for a receive coil for a magnetic resonance device includes a number of coil elements. The coil elements may be selectively connected to a receive channel of a data processing apparatus by way of a switching apparatus. Each of the coil elements includes at least one detuning assembly such as, for example, a PIN diode that may be switched between a detuning state and a receive state by way of a continuous switching signal. A controller is provided to switch the switching apparatus and to generate the switching signals. The detuning apparatus has first diplexers connected upstream of the switching apparatus for injecting switching signals for switching the detuning assembly for coil elements to be detuned dynamically. The detuning apparatus also includes detuning modules for each of the coil elements to switch the detuning assembly to the detuning state if there is no switching signal present.
摘要:
A preprocessing circuit for receive signals of a local coil in a magnetic resonance facility (1) includes an arrangement for supplying at least one auxiliary frequency signal of an auxiliary frequency. For at least one or the auxiliary frequency signal, a frequency multiplier generates the auxiliary frequency signal from an intermediate signal transmitted from a receive system of the magnetic resonance facility by way of a transmission link. The multiplier generates the auxiliary frequency signal with a frequency corresponding to a whole-number fraction of the auxiliary frequency.
摘要:
Method for operating an RF power amplifier (100; 200) with an approximately linear characteristic by adjusting at least one operating parameter of the amplifier or at least one active component of this amplifier, wherein a minimum collector or drain current of the active component or, respectively, an amplifier stage and the input signal level of the RF power amplifier are controlled in dependence on the quotient of harmonic power and useful-signal power of the amplifier output signal.
