Abstract: An ultrasound system includes an ultrasound probe, N switch elements and a processing unit, wherein the N switch elements are electrically connected to the ultrasound probe, the processing unit is electrically connected to the ultrasound probe and the N switch elements, and N is a positive integer. The ultrasound probe transmits and receives an ultrasound signal by a scanning frequency. Each of the switch elements has a main output frequency. The processing unit converts the ultrasound signal into an ultrasound image. The processing unit determines whether a noise exists in the ultrasound image. When the processing unit determines that the noise exists in the ultrasound image, the processing unit adjusts the main output frequency of at least one of the N switch elements.

Abstract: Data communication methods and systems for a host computer to access communication via a radio device. The current computations are interrupted when the host computer receives an interrupt signal, radio frequency (RF) control signals, and baseband data signals from the radio device. The host computer processes modem tasks and performs relative computation operations to obtain computation results, and sends the computation result back to the radio device.

Abstract: A method and system thereof for maintaining and broadcasting frame numbers in a digital communication system. The system monitors a frame number controller through a central controlling unit. The frame number controller maintains the frame numbers required by the system, as well as broadcasts the frame number for the subsequent data frame to each frame number receiver in the operational components. Each frame number receiver generates a frame boundary signal when a complete frame number is received from the frame number controller, and notifies the corresponding operational component to start using the frame number just received. The operational component can also determine if unfinished work according to the frame boundary signal exists, and report the error to the system. The aim is to provide a simple mechanism to maintain the synchronization of the system, and utilizes the serial port to transmit information related to the new frame number.
