Abstract:
An antenna system includes a first antenna, a second antenna, a third antenna, an isolation metal element, and a nonconductive support element. The isolation metal element is disposed between the first antenna and the second antenna. The third antenna defines a notch region. The second antenna at least partially extends into the notch region. The distance between the third antenna and the second antenna is from 1 mm to 10 mm. The first antenna, the second antenna, the third antenna, and the isolation metal element are all disposed on the nonconductive support element.
Abstract:
A storage clustering system comprises storage front-ends and clustering modules. At least one clustering module receives an access command from a client. When the access command instructs that a data item be stored, a clustering module invokes at least one computing module to compute at least one derivative value of the data item, and at least one clustering module stores, based on an index, the derivative value or at least part of the data item through a storage front-end, and accordingly updates an instance of metadata. When the access command instructs that a data item be fetched, a clustering module examines the metadata to select a storage front-end, through which a clustering module fetches the data item. When the storage front-end returns a derivative value instead, the fetching clustering module examines the index according to the derivative value to synthesize the data item for the client.
Abstract:
An antenna structure includes a feeding radiation element, a first radiation element, a second radiation element, a nonconductive support element, and an accessory element. The feeding radiation element has a feeding point. The first radiation element includes a branch portion and a widening portion. The feeding radiation element is coupled through the first radiation element to a ground voltage. The second radiation element is coupled to the feeding radiation element and the first radiation element. The nonconductive support element carries the feeding radiation element, the first radiation element, and the second radiation element. The accessory element includes a nonconductive housing and an internal metal element. The branch portion and widening portion of the first radiation element are disposed on the nonconductive housing of the accessory element.
Abstract:
An antenna structure includes a feeding radiation element, a first radiation element, a second radiation element, a third radiation element, a fourth radiation element, a fifth radiation element, and a switch circuit. The feeding radiation element has a feeding point. The second radiation element is coupled through the first radiation element to the feeding radiation element. The third radiation element is coupled to the second radiation element. The fourth radiation element is coupled to the second radiation element. The fourth radiation element and the third radiation element extend in different directions. The fifth radiation element has a tuning point, and is coupled to the feeding radiation element. The feeding radiation element is disposed between the first radiation element and the fifth radiation element. The switch circuit selectively couples the tuning point to a ground voltage.
Abstract:
A surveillance method using multi-dimensional sensor data for use in a surveillance system is provided. The surveillance system includes a plurality of sensors installed within a scene, and the plurality of sensor are classified into a plurality of types. The surveillance method includes the steps of: obtaining each type of sensor data from the scene using the sensors; performing a local-object process on each type of sensor data to generate local-object-feature information for each type; performing a global-object process according to the local-object-feature information of each type to generate global-object-feature information; and performing a global-object recognition process on the global-object-feature information to generate a global-recognition result.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the invention introduces a method for accessing big data, which contains at least the following steps. A data access request is received from one of a plurality of database frontends of different kinds. A data access operation is performed for the data access request by using an API (Application Programming Interface) to manipulate one of a plurality of cloud file systems of different kinds.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a block storage gateway module comprising a receiver unit and an access unit. The receiver unit intercepts an operating system call indicating a local access to a storage volume in order to generate a proximal access command. The access unit proximally accesses a storage array based on the said command. The storage array corresponds to the storage volume; the proximal access corresponds to the local access. Also disclosed herein is a mediator system for storage, the system comprising a load balancer device and one or more storage resource devices. Each storage resource device comprises an aforementioned module and a daemon module. The load balancer device receives a remote access request, selects one storage resource device, and sends an address of the selected storage resource device in a grant message.
Abstract:
The invention introduces a method for indoor positioning, executed by a processing unit of a first reference node, which contains at least the following steps. Broadcast signals of second reference nodes are listened. Signal measurements of the broadcast signals are obtained. Identification information is obtained from broadcast messages sent by the second reference nodes. A distance associated with each identification information is obtained. A MLM (Machine Learning Model) is updated according to the signal measurements and the distances, where the MLM describes a linear function between signal measurements and distances.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an input/output (I/O) redirection method, comprising receiving a call from a virtual machine for a first procedure, selectively executing the first procedure, and selectively calling a second procedure based on an external arrangement. The first procedure is associated with an I/O operation on the virtual machine and executed when the external arrangement indicates that the second procedure not be called. The second procedure is called when the external arrangement indicates so, and executed outside of the virtual machine. Also disclosed is an I/O virtualization system, comprising a front-end module and a back-end module. The front-end module, disposed in an operating system of the virtual machine, calls the first procedure based on the I/O operation. The back-end module, disposed in a hypervisor managing the virtual machine, is configured to implement the said method. The said system may further comprise a device configured to execute the second procedure.
