Abstract: A fractioning device for an ion implantation device with at least one fractioning wall, wherein the fractioning device is suitable for being inserted within a channel. The channel is configured to connect an ion source, which is at a first pressure p1 and a processing chamber, which is at a second pressure p2 in an ion implantation device.

Abstract: An electronic monitoring bracelet, comprising a ring-shaped body (2) configured so as to be mounted around a limb or an object, and an electronic monitoring system positioned in the body, the electronic monitoring system comprising an integrity detection system (4) and an internal source of energy (12). The ring-shaped body (2) is in the form of a rigid shell containing a chamber or several chamber sections in which are positioned components of the electronic monitoring system, the ring-shaped body entirely encircling the bracelet.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for compensating I-Q imbalance in a wireless receiver. The receiver may employ a quadrature downconverter configured to receive an RF signal input and output an in-phase component and a quadrature component at an IF, an IF rotation block configured to downconvert the in-phase and quadrature components to baseband and an I-Q correction block configured to compensate for an I-Q imbalance in the received signal, wherein the I-Q correction block is positioned downstream from the IF rotation block in the signal path. Performing the I-Q correction after conversion to baseband may allow the compensation calculations to operate at a reduced digital rate. Similarly, digitally adjusting the gain of the signal prior to I-Q compensation may reduce the number of bits that are manipulated during the compensation process. These features may represent significant efficiencies as compared to I-Q corrections performed at IF.
