  • Publication number: 20240113854
    Abstract: Internal phase shifting is achieved by adding a feedback divider to a feedback loop of a phase locked loop circuit configured to determine a transmission frequency of a wireless transmission terminal and adding a phase adjustment current to a loop current. Since the phase adjustment current is applied to an adder circuit, a phase difference is maintained even when the feedback loop is in a stable state, and accordingly, an output of the feedback divider maintains the phase difference with a reference frequency as intended by the phase adjustment current applied to the adder circuit.

  • Patent number: 11415269
    Abstract: A system and a method for sensing hydrogen charge state of a fuel cell electric vehicle are provided. The system includes an infrared transmission unit that transmits a fuel door sensing infrared signal for sensing a fuel door opened while charging hydrogen and a nozzle sensing infrared signal for sensing a charging station-side hydrogen charging nozzle connected to a hydrogen charging inlet of a vehicle. An infrared reception unit receives the fuel door sensing infrared signal and thereafter, reflected on a fuel door and the nozzle sensing infrared signal transmitted from the infrared transmission unit and thereafter, reflected on the hydrogen charging nozzle. A controller determines that the vehicle is being charged with hydrogen when sensing an open state of the fuel door and a hydrogen charging inlet connection state of the hydrogen charging nozzle.
