  • Publication number: 20240162663
    Abstract: A connector for use with high-speed signals. The connector has a housing, which includes conductive elements held in a row by a housing. Each conductive element includes a thinner portion and a thicker portion. The conductive elements are configured to make contact with a mating component at the thicker portions. The thinner portions are closer to mating ends of respective conductive elements than respective thicker portions. The housing is configured to provide voids selectively disposed underneath the conductive elements. Such a configuration increases impedances for the conductive elements at locations that would otherwise have lower impedance and therefore reduces impedance variations along signal transmission paths. Such a configuration can also reduce stub size and therefore reduce insertion loss. Such a configuration meets signal integrity requirements in connectors designed for 64 Gbps and beyond, while conforming to a standard that constrains mating and mounting interfaces.

  • Patent number: 11982725
    Abstract: Magnetic resonance images with improved image quality consistent with those obtained using parallel radio frequency (“RF”) transmission (“pTx”) techniques are generated from data acquired using single transmission hardware (e.g., single channel RF transmission). A deep-learning framework is used to train a deep neural network to convert images obtained with single transmission into pTx-like images. The pTx-like images have reduced signal variations and dropouts that may otherwise be attributable to B1+ inhomogeneities.

  • Patent number: 11980785
    Abstract: A foam production method includes mixing liquid nitrogen with a foaming material to produce foam. A gas is produced in situ from liquid nitrogen. As the ratio of the volume of the gas produced by gasification of liquid nitrogen to the volume of the liquid nitrogen is relatively high, when a large gas supply flow is needed to generate a large foam flow, a liquid nitrogen storage device of a small volume can be used instead of bulky air supply devices such as high-pressure gas cylinders, air compressors, air compressor sets and the like, reducing the volume of the air supply device. In addition, the liquid nitrogen used in foaming will release nitrogen gas after the foam blast, such that the nitrogen is also able to inhibit combustion on the surface of burning materials, accelerating the extinguishing of the fire.
