摘要:
A power amplifier circuit arrangement including a driver amplifier, a switch, an amplifier path having a band pass filter and a power amplifier, and a bypass path which bypasses the power amplifier when excess gain and output power are not needed. When an RF-analog signal from the driver amplifier is switched to the amplifier path, the signal is band-pass filtered and amplified. Then the signal is split into an in-phase and a quadrature signal. Either the in-phase or the quadrature signal is inverted and summed with the other of the in-phase or quadrature signal, and the summed signal is transmitted to an output port. When the RF-signal from the driver amplified is switched to the bypass path, the power amplifier is turned off and the bypass path directs the signal to the output of the power amplifier, which appears as a high impedance to the signal. The signal reflects off the power amplifier to the output port. This design preserves the benefits of bypassing the power amplifier by reducing the amount of switching loss introduced into the circuit.
摘要:
A power amplifier circuit arrangement including a power amplifier, and a bypass network for bypassing an RF-input signal around the power amplifier when excess gain and output power are not needed. When the bypass network is used, the power amplifier is turned off. A circulator connects the bypass network to the power amplifier output, thus removing the requirement of an output switch. The RF-input signal enters the circulator which routes the signal toward the output of the power amplifier. Because the amplifier is off, its output appears as a high impedance and reflects the signal back to the circulator. The circulator routes the reflected signal the signal output.

Portable workstation or desk apparatus and methods. In one embodiment, a portable workstation is comprised of a plurality of components including a work surface or upper element, a stem or support element, and an anchor or base element. In one variant, the work surface element (and/or the base element) can be mounted to the stem element in first and second configurations. The various configurations provides a substantially level work surface (relative to the base) or a substantially inclined work surface, and/or varying degrees of offset relative to the base.

A system and a method are provided for vibrating a portable device. The system includes a vibrator housing with stops, a vibrator circuit, and a controller. The controller has an output to supply alternating electric current. The vibrator circuit includes a vibrator coil and a magnetic vibrator rod. The vibrator coil is made of a conductive material and has an inside core space and inputs to accept the alternating electric current. The vibrator coil generates an alternating magnetic field through the core space in response to the alternating electric current and the vibrator rod moves in a reciprocating linear fashion in the core space in response to the alternating magnetic field. The vibrator rod has ends with audio damping pads impacting against stops in the vibrator housing. The vibrator housing vibrates in response to the vibrator rod impacting against the stops. The controller has an input for selecting frequency commands in response to predetermined portable device conditions and supplies electric current alternating at a frequency responsive to the commands. In one aspect, the portable device is a wireless communications device and the controller selects commands in response to received calls from calling telephone numbers.

A multi-mode receiver and methods are provided, which use blind source separation (BSS) analysis to distinguish the various wireless communication signals from each other. Specifically, different signal types can be identified by BSS. The different signal types can be in overlapping frequencies or they can be in completely different frequencies. The BSS analysis may use center or carrier frequency, bandwidth, modulation scheme, access scheme, or wireless communication resources as an input to assist in the BSS.

An amplifier circuit for providing an amplified signal in response to an input signal. The amplifier circuit includes an input network for applying the input signal to a selected at least one of a plurality of amplifier stages. An output network is provided for coupling the amplified signal from the selected at least one amplifier stage. The appropriate amplifier stage is selected by a control circuit in response to a desired power value of the amplified signal. By selectively activating only the amplifier stage(s) that are necessary to provide the desired level of output power, increased DC efficiency can be accomplished in applications that require an amplifier which operates linearly over a wide dynamic range.
