  • Patent number: 11740339
    Abstract: A ranging system includes: a source generating a wideband incident wave that is transmitted toward a target and that is reflected by the target to form a reflected wave; a feedback detector to detect the reflected wave to generate a detected signal; an operator configured to perform low-pass filtering on the detected signal at an adjustable filtering bandwidth to generate a filtered signal, and calculate cross-correlation of a feedback signal that originates from the filtered signal and a reference signal that corresponds to the incident wave to generate a cross-correlation result; and a controller calculating a distance to the target based on an operation output that originates from the cross-correlation result.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: August 29, 2023
    Assignee: National Tsing Hua University

  • Patent number: 9163976
    Abstract: A level transducer has a power supply module, a tuning fork module, a sensing-phase corrector and a controller. The tuning fork module has a tuning fork, at least one piezoelectric driving element, and at least one piezoelectric sensing element. The at least one piezoelectric driving element and the at least one piezoelectric sensing element are stacked on each other, and are mounted on the tuning fork. The power supply module is electrically connected and outputs a voltage to the at least one piezoelectric driving element to deform the at least one piezoelectric driving element. The at least one piezoelectric sensing element is extruded and outputs a voltage signal. The sensing-phase corrector obtains the voltage signal and outputs a clock signal to feedback control the voltage on the at least one piezoelectric driving element to optimize a deformation frequency of each piezoelectric element.
