Publication number: 20240097324Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a first antenna fed by a first path and a second antenna fed by a second path. A first coupler may be disposed on the first path, a second coupler may be disposed on the second path, and a feedback path may couple the couplers to a receiver. A low-pass filter may be disposed on the second path. The first antenna may transmit signals in a low band. Some of the signals may couple onto the second antenna. The second coupler may pass the coupled signals to the receiver. Control circuitry may generate a scattering parameter value characterizing the coupling of the signals from the first antenna onto the second antenna. The scattering parameter value may be used to determine when to switch the first antenna out of use and the second antenna into use for covering the low band.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2022Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Yuancheng Xu, Thomas E Biedka, Jingni Zhong, Hongfei Hu, Simran Singh, Allen S Kwon, Carlo Di Nallo, Jayesh Nath, Mattia Pascolini

The grip portions or grip areas are preferably spaced apart by a center portion that secures the assembly to a bicycle steerer tube. A channel or detent is formed in the body proximate at least one, and preferably proximate each grip portion or grip area. A dampener formed of a different material than the body is disposed in the detent and dissipates at least a portion of vibration of the body to reduce vibrations communicated to the hands of the rider from handlebar vibration. An optional grip assembly cooperates with the handlebar assembly and is constructed to further dampen handlebar vibration.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2015Date of Patent: January 29, 2019Assignee: Trek Bicycle CorporationInventors: Ryan Galstad, Jeffery Staszak, Michael Leighton, Allen Hu

Publication number: 20090212608Abstract: A seat system for providing a substantially normal contact angle between the seat and the ischial tuberosities of a rider seated thereupon. The seat system includes variable padding that is configured to generally cooperate with the physiology of the rider. The padding is secured to a base that includes a pair of rails extending from an underside of the base. The rails are attached to permit controlled motion of the seat during pedaling operation in response to the change in orientation of the rider's physiology relative to the seat. The deflection of the seat cooperates with the motion of the rider's physiology through a substantial portion of a rider's pedaling motion.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2008Publication date: August 27, 2009Inventors: Damon Rinard, Jeffrey R.
