摘要:
Although the duplexer in a full-duplex transceiver circuit may only be guaranteed by the duplexer manufacturer to have a transmit band rejection from its TX port to its RX port of a certain amount, and may only be guaranteed to have a receive band rejection of another amount, the actual transmit band rejection and the actual receive band rejection of a particular instance of the duplexer may be better than specified. Rather than consuming excess power in the receiver and/or transmitter in order to meet performance requirements assuming the duplexer only performs as well as specified, the duplexer's in-circuit performance is measured as part of a transmitter-to-receiver isolation determination. Transmitter and/or receiver power settings are reduced where possible to take advantage of the measured better-than-specified in-circuit duplexer performance, while still meeting transceiver performance requirements. Power settings are not changed during normal transmit and receive mode operation.

Disclosed are a system, method and device for generating an equalized signal from an input signal. Symbols in the equalized signal may be detected on each of a sequence of symbol intervals to recover a symbol value in the symbol interval. A feedback coefficient may be applied to a symbol value recovered in a previous symbol interval to generate the equalized signal in a current symbol interval. The feedback coefficient may be generated based, at least in part, on an estimated error associated with the equalized signal. The estimated error associated with the equalized output signal from among a plurality of candidate estimated error values.

摘要:
In accordance with the invention, an ultrasound imaging device includes a fluid flow path between a distal end having ultrasound transducers and a proximal end that is electrically coupled to the distal end to enable the exchange of electrical signals. Cooling fluid within the flow path transfers heat generated by the ultrasound transducers and other heat-generating components located at the distal end. The heat flow path is one element of an active thermal management sub-system, which may also include a Thermo Electric Cooler (TEC). The active thermal management sub-system may alternatively or additionally include a heat sink to transfer thermal energy. A temperature monitor may be used for the embodiment in which the sub-system dynamically provides thermal regulation.
摘要:
A laser driver circuit to provide a current signal to power a laser device is described. A bias current provided to the laser device may be changed while changes in the output power of a light signal from the laser device is monitored. A slope efficiency associated with the laser device may be determined based upon the changes in the bias current and changes in the output power.
