  • Patent number: 11954895
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for automatically identifying south troughs by improved Laplace and relates to the technical field of meteorology. The method includes the following steps: acquiring grid data of a geopotential height field; calculating a gradient field of the geopotential height field in an x direction; searching for a turning point where a gradient value turned from being negative to being positive, and cleaning the gradient field; calculating a divergence of the x direction to obtain an improved Laplacian numerical value L?; performing 0,1 binarization processing on the L? to obtain a black-and-white image and a plurality of targets of potential troughs, merging the black-and-white image and the plurality of targets of the potential troughs by expansion, recovering original scale through erosion, and selecting an effective target through an angle of direction of a contour and an axial ratio.

  • Patent number: 9614575
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed to couple a transmission amplifier and a reception amplifier to a shared medium. An output of the transmission amplifier is directly coupled to an input of the reception amplifier to form a common connection. The transmission amplifier and the reception amplifier may receive a first amplifier bias via the common connection. In response to the first amplifier bias, the transmission amplifier provides a first communication signal to the shared medium and the reception amplifier does not provide a second communication signal from the shared medium. Alternatively, the transmission amplifier and the reception may receive a second amplifier bias via the common connection. In response to the second amplifier bias, the reception amplifier provides the second communication signal from the shared medium and the transmission amplifier does not provide the first communication signal to the shared medium.

  • Patent number: 9118367
    Abstract: Embodiments provide transmitter topologies that improve the power efficiency and bandwidth of RF transmitters for high transmission power applications. In an embodiment, the common-emitter/source PA of conventional topologies is replaced with a current-input common-base/gate PA, which is stacked on top on an open-collector/drain current-output transmitter. The common-base/gate PA protects the output of the transmitter from large output voltage swings. The low input impedance of the common-base/gate PA makes the PA less susceptible to frequency roll-off, even in the presence of large parasitic capacitance produced by the transmitter. At the same time, the low input impedance of the common-base/gate PA reduces the voltage swing at the transmitter output and prevents the transmitter output from being compressed or modulated. In an embodiment, the DC output current of the transmitter is reused to bias the PA, which results in power savings compared to conventional transmitter topologies.
