  • Publication number: 20130264513
    Abstract: Phase change material microcapsules are obtained using a PMMA prepolymer and an organic-solvent free synthesis process. A polymer monomer and an initiator are subject to pre-polymerization in a water bath to form Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) prepolymer which is then prepared to be a stabilizer aqueous solution. A phase change material is added to the stabilizer aqueous solution and liquefied in advance, and stirred to form an emulsion by a homogenizing mixer. A starting agent, a cross-linking agent and a Polymethyl methacrylate methyl ester prepolymer are added to the emulsion containing the phase-change material. The emulsion is further stirred by the homogenizing mixer for micro-emulsification which then aggregates in water bath.

The RF transceiver includes a voltage-controlled oscillator, a power divider, a low-pass filter, a low-noise amplifier and a mixer. The voltage-controlled oscillator receives a signal from the modulator and produces a frequency modulated continuous wave signal. The power divider receives the frequency modulated continuous wave signal from the voltage-controlled oscillator. The low-pass filter receives the frequency modulated continuous wave signal from the power divider. The low-noise amplifier receives, amplifies and transfers a target echo signal. The mixer combines the frequency modulated continuous wave signal from the power divider with the echo signal of target from the low-noise amplifier so that the two signals are added up or subtracted from each other in a frequency band.
