  • Patent number: 12726326
    Abstract: Disclosed are exemplary methods and devices (e.g., circuits, compensators, low-gain signal boosters, repeaters, signal amplifier devices, etc.) for providing time division duplexing synchronized compensation between a terminal device (e.g., mobile phone, user equipment within a vehicle, a coupling antenna on a wireless charger, etc.) and an antenna (e.g., a vehicle roof antenna, etc.) or antenna connection, etc. In an exemplary embodiment, a circuit includes at least one detector, at least one control unit, at least one uplink path including at least one transmission amplifier, and at least one downlink path including at least one reception amplifier. The uplink and downlink paths are configured to be operable for respectively amplifying uplink and downlink signals having a same frequency according to time division duplexing. The control unit is configured to be operable for activating the uplink path and deactivating the downlink path before an uplink signal is transmitted by a terminal device.

  • Patent number: 12725969
    Abstract: A connector assembly includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes a first housing and a first terminal held by the first housing, the first terminal has a first contact portion which extends in a first direction. The second connector includes a second housing and a second terminal held by the second housing, the second terminal extends in the first direction and has a second contact portion. In a mating process of the first connector and the second connector, the first connector and the second connector firstly move toward each other along the first direction, then move along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction relative to each other to make the first contact portion of the first terminal contact the second contact portion of the second terminal and make the first connector and the second connector mate with each other.

  • Patent number: 12700698
    Abstract: An inline electrical connector system includes male and female connectors and a mate assist slider. The male connector includes first and second spaced apart projections which engage with rotatable gears on the female connector, and the mate assist slider includes a gear track which engages with the gears. Axial movement of the female connector and mate assist slider relative to the male connector causes engagement of the first and second projections with the first and second gears, thereby causing the first and second gears to rotate relative to the gear track and draw the female connector and mate assist slider onto the male connector. A releasable connector position assurance device is provided on the mate assist slider to lock the components into a locked position.
