Abstract: A system includes a controller to provide at least one control output to an automated system in response to a control command received at a control input of the controller. The control output controls the operation of the automated system based on the control command. A signature analyzer generates the control command to the controller and receives an impedance signature related to a property of a material or object encountered by the automated system. The signature analyzer compares the impedance signature to at least one comparison signature to determine the property of the material or object. The signature analyzer adjusts the control command to the controller to control the operation of the automated system based on the determined property.

Abstract: A phase rotator corrects the IQ imbalance in a wireless transceiver. The phase rotator is a part of a compensation system that detects and separates reception impairment images from transmission impairment images. The disclosed phase rotator introduces a phase shift between the transmission channel and the reception channel without perturbing the phase mismatch and the gain mismatch in the reception path. The phase rotator includes a first local oscillation (LO) circuit that generates a first LO signal at a first carrier frequency and a second LO circuit that generates a second LO signal at a second carrier frequency that deviates from the first carrier frequency for a phase rotation period. The phase rotation period is sufficiently long such that the frequency deviation can introduce a prescribed phase shift between the first LO signal and the second LO signal.

Abstract: One example includes an ultrasonic ranging system. The system includes an ultrasonic transducer configured to transmit an ultrasonic signal and to receive reflected ultrasonic signal paths having been reflected from a plurality of target objects during a ranging operation. The system also includes a ranging processor configured to detect a location associated with the plurality of target objects based on monitoring phase information associated with the reflected ultrasonic signal paths.

Abstract: A method includes selecting a frame of an audio signal. The method further includes determining a first power spectral density (PSD) distribution of the frame. The method further includes generating a first reference PSD distribution indicating an estimate of background noise in the frame based on a non-linear weight, a second reference PSD distribution of a previous frame of the audio signal, and a second PSD distribution of the previous frame. The method further includes determining whether voice activity is detected in the frame based on the first PSD distribution of the frame and the first reference PSD distribution.

Abstract: From a current measurement circuit, digital samples are received of a current signal that flows through a battery cell within a measurement period. From a voltage measurement circuit, digital samples are received of a voltage signal across the battery cell within the measurement period. First voltage spectral components are generated based on performing a first transform operation on the digital samples of the voltage signal. A current spectrum is generated based on performing a second transform operation on the digital samples of the current signal. Second voltage spectral components are generated based on a first condition of the battery cell before the measurement period and a second condition of the battery cell after the measurement period. A voltage spectrum is including the first voltage spectrum and the second voltage spectrum is generated. An impedance spectrum of the battery cell is generated based on the voltage spectrum and the current spectrum.

Abstract: A method includes determining a droop component of a measured parameter of a device under test (DUT). The measured parameter is responsive to an excitation signal having a frequency component, and the droop component is determined responsive to a first value of the parameter at a first time and a second value of the parameter at a second time. The parameter at the first time has a first phase value, and the parameter at the second time has a second phase value. The first phase value is equal to the second phase value. The method also includes correcting a frequency domain representation of the parameter by applying the droop component at a frequency of the representation of the parameter corresponding to the frequency component of the excitation signal.

Abstract: A circuit for measuring an impedance of a device under test (DUT). The circuit includes: (i) circuitry for generating a stimulus wave at a stimulus frequency; (ii) an amplifier circuit coupled to the DUT to present a response signal from the DUT in response to the stimulus wave; (iii) switching circuitry for selectively coupling, between the stimulus wave and an input to the amplifier, either the DUT, a first calibration impedance, or a second calibration impedance. With the switching functionality, calibrations are performed so to provide a measure of impedance of the DUT in response to the plural calibrations.
