  • Patent number: 8498837
    Abstract: The invention discloses a paramagnetism-based remote temperature measurement method for magnetic nanoparticles, and the method comprises: applying multiple times of excited magnetic fields on the area of a magnetic nano sample, constructing an equation group between the different excited magnetic fields and corresponding magnetic susceptibilities according to the Langevin's paramagnetic theorem, and obtaining the information of temperature and sample concentration via the equation group. The invention is capable of more precisely and more quickly detecting the temperature of an object, and especially applicable for the detection of thermal motion at bio-molecular level. Experiments indicate the measurement error is less than 0.56K.

  • Publication number: 20130128735
    Abstract: A “Universal Rate Control Mechanism with Parameter Adaptation” (URCMPA) improves real-time communication (RTC) sessions in terms of delay, loss, throughput, and PSNR. The URCMPA automatically learns network characteristics including bottleneck link capacity, inherent queuing delay, inherent packet loss rates, etc., during RTC sessions. The URCMPA uses this information to dynamically adapt rate control parameters in a utility maximization (UM) framework. The URCMPA operates reliable RTC sessions across a wide range and combination of networks near full throughput rates while maintaining low operating congestion levels (e.g., low queuing delay and low packet loss). Examples of networks applicable for use with the URCMPA include, but are not limited to, combinations of mobile broadband (e.g., 3G, 4G, etc.), WiMAX, Wi-Fi hotspots, etc., and physical networks based on cable, fiber, ADSL, etc.
