  • Publication number: 20230326325
    Abstract: Cell Secure Phone is a newly invented security system for vehicles designed to identify and photograph a vehicle intruder or thief. The system is paired with a software application, allowing an in-vehicle camera to take a photograph of the thief and automatically send the photo to the software application for immediate identification The ‘Cell Secure Phone’ main body part was constructed by plastic molding injection method. In other words, plastic pellets are heated to high temperature where it becomes molten liquid at a superheated temperature. The liquefied plastic is poured into special made prefab, forged cast iron which is in the shape preferred to form the casing and the cover that will carry the electronic equipment to protect the integrity of the equipment. The nature of the built is tough to resist easy breakage because of the plastic material used for durability and longevity.

  • Patent number: 11196390
    Abstract: Power amplifier devices and methods for fabricating power amplifier devices containing frontside heat extraction structures are disclosed. In embodiments, the power amplifier device includes a substrate, a radio frequency (RF) power die bonded to a die support surface of the substrate, and a frontside heat extraction structure further attached to the die support surface. The frontside heat extraction structure includes, in turn, a transistor-overlay portion in direct thermal contact with a frontside of the RF power die, a first heatsink coupling portion thermally coupled to a heatsink region of the substrate, and a primary heat extraction path extending from the transistor-overlay portion to the first heatsink coupling portion. The primary heat extraction path promotes conductive heat transfer from the RF power die to the heatsink region and reduce local temperatures within a transistor channel of the RF power die during operation of the power amplifier device.

  • Patent number: 11098522
    Abstract: We disclose methods of blocking the transmission of COVID-19 and other airborne pathogens between people standing on either side of a door separating an interior space from an exterior space. In a preferred embodiment, the method comprises hingedly mounting a rigid transparent gate directly to the door so that the gate swings independently of the door. Preferably, the gate is dimensioned to substantially fill the width defined by the frame holding the door. The method further comprises releasing the gate from a storage position against the door, coupling the gate to the door frame and opening the door.

  • Patent number: 10720703
    Abstract: Various embodiments presented herein relate to determining mutual coupling between a pair of antennas in an array antenna. Various operations presented herein enable comparison between a magnitude and phase of a signal transmitted from a first feed network (via a first antenna) and a magnitude and phase of a portion of the signal received at a second feed network (via a second antenna). Electrical effects engendered by any of the first feed network, a first switch, a first local circuit, the second feed network, a second switch, and a second local circuit can also be determined and their effects mathematically removed. Based upon the foregoing, a mutual coupling between the pair of antenna is determined.

  • Patent number: 7065302
    Abstract: A high efficiency optical feedback modulator and method of operation are provided. The high efficiency optical feedback modulator (30) includes an optical modulator (52) and an optical feedback system (54). The optical modulator (52) includes first and second optical inputs (66a, 68a) and first and second optical outputs (66b, 68b). The optical feedback system (54) is coupled between the second optical output (68b) and the second optical input (68a). The second optical input (68a) receives an optical feedback signal (70) from the optical feedback system (54). The first optical input (66a) receives an input light beam (56). The input light beam (56) and the optical feedback signal (70) are modulated with an electronic input signal (26a) to produce a high modulation depth optical signal (36) output from the first optical output (66b).
