  • Patent number: 11936418
    Abstract: A radar signal processing system with a self-interference cancelling function includes an analog front end (AFE) processor, an analog to digital converter (ADC), an adaptive interference canceller (AIC), and a digital to analog converter (DAC). The AFE processor receives an original input signal and generates an analog input signal. The ADC converts the analog input signal to a digital input signal. The AIC generates a digital interference signal digital interference signal by performing an adaptive interference cancellation process according to the digital input signal. The DAC converts the digital interference signal to an analog interference signal. Finally, the analog interference signal is fed back to the AFE and cancelled from the original input signal in the AFE processor while performing the front end process, reducing the interference of the static interference from the leaking of a close-by transmitter during the front end process.

  • Patent number: 11892562
    Abstract: A performing device of an impulse-like gesture recognition system executes an impulse-like gesture recognition method. A performing procedure of the impulse-like gesture recognition method includes steps of: receiving a sensing signal from a sensing unit; determining a prediction with at least one impulse-like label according to the sensing frames by a deep learning-based model; and classifying at least one gesture event according to the prediction. The gesture event is classified to determine the motion of the user. Since the at least one impulse-like label is used to label at least one detection score of the deep learning-based model, the detection score is non-decreasing, reaction time of the at least one gesture event for an incoming gesture is fast, rapid consecutive gestures are easily decomposed, and an expensive post-processing is not needed.

  • Patent number: 10985443
    Abstract: An antenna packaging structure includes a top substrate, an antenna chip, a bottom substrate, and a plurality of antenna transmission lines. The top substrate includes an antenna. The bottom substrate includes a circuit. The antenna chip is mounted on the bottom substrate, and is electrically connected to the antenna of the top substrate through the circuit of the bottom substrate and the antenna transmission lines. Since the antenna chip is directly electrically connected to a processor through the circuit, a plurality of communication lines do not need to be electrically connected between the antenna and the circuit. Further, since the antenna transmission lines just need to transmit a simple antenna signal between the antenna and the antenna chip, an amount of the antenna transmission lines is smaller than an amount of communication lines. Moreover, the total size of the antenna packaging structure is reduced.

  • Patent number: 10810411
    Abstract: A performing device of a gesture recognition system for reducing a false alarm rate executes a performing procedure of a gesture recognition method for reducing the false alarm rate. The gesture recognition system includes two neural networks. A first recognition neural network is used to classify a gesture event, and a first noise neural network is used to determine whether the sensing signal is the noise. Since the first noise neural network can determine whether the sensing signal is the noise, the gesture event may not be executed when the sensing signal is the noise. Therefore, the false alarm rate may be reduced.
