  • Publication number: 20210355422
    Abstract: A fluidic device, a fluidic system and a method for developing a cellular starting material into a three-dimensional cellular structure. The fluidic device includes a base body which includes a chamber in which a matrix is received, into which the cellular starting material to be developed can be introduced, and at least two fluid reservoirs. Each fluid reservoir includes a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet and a separating device which is partially permeable to a fluid medium and which separates the associated fluid reservoir from the chamber and forms a common plane interface with the chamber, via which the fluid medium can diffuse into the matrix.

  • Patent number: 8626089
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a circuit comprises an adaptive predistorter and a nonlinear element coupled to an output of the predistorter. The predistorter is operative to predistort an input signal according to predistortion control parameters at a given sampling rate. The circuit further comprises an identification unit and a translation unit. The identification unit identifies nonlinearity parameters representing the nonlinearity of the nonlinear element by sampling the output of the nonlinear element at an identification sampling rate lower than twice a bandwidth at the output of the nonlinear element. The translation unit translates the identified nonlinearity parameters into the predistortion control parameters. Other systems and methods are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 7885797
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention is a method for producing a system for describing an electrical network. An output signal of the electrical network is sampled at a frequency that corresponds to the Nyquist criterion for the input signal to the electrical network. A model with a memory is developed for the output signal, which is sampled at a low sampling rate, with this model approximating the output signal. The model is then transformed by suitable interpolation to an interpolated model with a memory. The interpolation results in the model created in this way providing a good approximation to an output signal which is sampled at a high frequency. The resultant system can be used for predistortion.
