  • Patent number: 11710900
    Abstract: An antenna device includes a first antenna unit, a second antenna unit and a third antenna unit. An angle between the second antenna unit and the first antenna unit is substantially equal to 90 degrees. An angle between the third antenna unit and the first antenna unit is substantially equal to 90 degrees. The first antenna unit and the second antenna unit are configured to generate a signal having a first polarization when the third antenna unit is turned off. The third antenna unit and the second antenna unit are configured to generate a signal having a second polarization different from the first polarization when the third antenna unit is turned off. A method of generating polarized signals is also disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 11506537
    Abstract: An optical sensing circuit including a capacitor, a light sensing unit, a compensation unit, and a switching element is provided. The light sensing unit, the compensation unit, and the switching element are electrically connected to the capacitor. The light sensing unit senses the light of a first color. The compensation unit senses the light of a second color complementary to the first color. When a light illuminates the light sensing unit and the compensation unit, a first light component of the light corresponding to the first color causes the light sensing unit to generate a first current, and a second light component of the light corresponding to the second color causes the compensation unit to generate a second current, which reduces the amount of the charging or the discharging current when the first current charges or discharges the capacitor whose voltage is read as information for determining light color.

  • Patent number: 11131582
    Abstract: An optical sensing circuit includes a first, a second, and a third optical sensing element and a sampling circuit. The first sensing element provides a first current from a first node to a second node according to an ambient light and a sensing signal. The second optical sensing element drains a second current from the second node to the first node according to the ambient light and the sensing signal. The third optical sensing element is coupled between the first node and the second node. The third optical sensing element receives a first color light, and transmits the first current to the second node or transmits the second current to the first node according to the first color light. The sampling circuit is turned on according to the sampling signal to output a detection signal based on the voltage level of the second node.
