    Abstract: The photochromic helmet visor includes a transparent piece, an adhesive layer attached to the transparent piece, a flexible base layer attached to the adhesive layer, a self-repairing layer attached to the flexible base layer, and a number of photochromic elements integrated with the flexible base layer or the self-repairing layer. The self-repairing layer includes a. PU layer and a. Siloxane layer attached to the PU layer. The photochromic elements are integrated with the flexible base layer or the self-repairing layer. The flexible base layer is made of PU, TPU, PVC, or PET, and may be tightly and smoothly joined to the transparent piece along with the adhesive layer. The self-repairing layer allows self-repairing to scratches or abrasions under a high temperature, thereby preventing the malfunction of the photochromic elements out of wear and usage and the resulted constant replacement, and enhancing the visor's durability.

    Abstract: A decoding method adopting an algorithm with weight-based adjusted parameters and a decoding system are provided. The decoding method is applied to a decoder. M×N low density parity check codes (LDPC codes) having N variable nodes and M check nodes are generated from input signals. In the decoding method, information of the variable nodes and the check nodes is initialized. The information passed from the variable nodes to the check nodes is formed after multiple iterations. After excluding a connection to be calculated, a product of the remaining connections between the variable nodes and the check nodes is calculated. Next, an estimated first minimum or an estimated second minimum can be calculated with multi-dimensional parameters. The information passed from the check nodes to the variable nodes can be updated for making a decision.

  • Publication number: 20220393712
    Abstract: A method for cancelling radio frequency interference (RFI) and a communication system thereof are provided. In the communication system, digital signals of a frequency domain are converted from analog signals and received by the communication system generally carry RFI, and the signals are processed by an equalizer and a far-end crosstalk canceller. Then, for preventing erroneous signals from forming due to an occurrence of a notch, masking parameters applied to the equalizer and the far-end crosstalk canceller are modified for not processing frequency bands that are RFI-affected. The frequency bands can be ignored by masking corresponding bins in the frequency domain after a fast Fourier transformation. The signals processed by the equalizer and the far-end crosstalk canceller are then outputted to an RFI canceller, and the signals with RFI cancellation can be obtained.

  • Patent number: 11454663
    Abstract: A signal processing method is provided. The signal processing method is used in a Gigabit Ethernet system including a device under test (DUT) and a link partner (LP), and includes the following steps. Firstly, an interference detector is configured to detect whether the Gigabit Ethernet system is interfered by other signal sources. Next, a physical layer (PHY) of the DUT or a PHY of the LP is used to, in response to the Gigabit Ethernet system being interfered by the other signal sources, set a request signal indicating whether or not the physical layer enters a low power idle (LPI) mode as FALSE. Which PHY of the DUT and the LP is used to set the request signal indicating whether or not the PHY enters the LPI mode as FALSE depends upon which one of the DUT and the LP is provided with the interference detector.
