Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for improving communication by various computing systems in a network. Each computing system can be used to receive and process data. The data can be associated with a process represented by a chain of tasks. The computing systems can determine various parameters associated with the chain of tasks for determining a risk associated with the chain of tasks. The computing system can also determine a risk associated with multiple chains of tasks and aggregate the risks associated with the multiple chains of tasks. Determining the risk associated with each chain of tasks in the multiple chains of tasks can normalize a risk represented by the chains of tasks. Determining the risk associated with each chain of tasks or normalizing the risks represented by the chains can improve communication by the various computing systems in the network.

Abstract: Embodiments are described of devices and methods for processing a signal using a plurality of vector signal generators (VSGs). A digital signal may be provided to a plurality of signal paths, each of which may process a respective frequency band of the signal, the respective frequency bands having regions of overlap. The gain and phase of each signal path may be adjusted such that continuity of phase and magnitude are preserved through the regions of overlap. The adjustment of gain and phase may be accomplished by a complex multiply with a complex calibration constant. The calibration constant may be determined for each signal path by comparing the gain and phase of one or more calibration tones generated within each region of overlap. Each signal path may comprise a VSG to convert the respective signal to an analog signal, which may be combined to obtain a composite signal.

Abstract: Power leveling a system under test (SUT). An input signal is provided at an initial power level to the SUT. Multiple iterations are performed, each including measuring, over a specified measuring interval, power of a signal produced by the SUT in response to the input signal, and dynamically adjusting the power of the input signal in response. The measuring interval is increased over the iterations, thereby increasing accuracy of the measuring over the iterations while converging the signal to a specified power level. An initial power leveling operation may be performed for the SUT to establish a specified power level, after which the SUT is tested, during which multiple power leveling operations are performed, each including measuring power of a signal from the SUT over a specified measuring interval, and adjusting the input signal in response, thereby maintaining the specified power level during the testing while correcting for thermal droop.
