Abstract: The present invention proposes a method for constructing investment portfolios, which includes calculating the logarithmic return and the momentum factor through a processor based on historical stock prices, storing the logarithmic return and the momentum factor, the processor calculates the information coefficient (IC) values based on the logarithmic return and momentum factor, and stores the IC values as an investment target screening indicators, utilizes the processor to exanimate the momentum IC value in the time interval, deletes the stocks whose stock price is too small, ranks and stores the stocks according to the strength of the momentum, and utilizes the processor to determine the stock list in the portfolio based on the ranking by the equal weighting method, and then stores the portfolio.

The system firmware may receive channel information from the WLAN module, determine a state of the antenna corresponding to the received channel information using the look-up table, and tune a frequency of the antenna corresponding to the determined state via the tuning circuit.

Abstract: Techniques for controlling RF output of portable devices are described. In an example, an indication of a mode of a portable device is received. The mode is based on an inclination of the portable device. The inclination is measured in reference to a screen of the portable device and a horizontal surface. Based on the mode, an RF power level defined for the mode is determined. The RF power output of the portable device is controlled based on the RF power level.
