  • Patent number: 10709255
    Abstract: An inflation identification connector and an air mattress system having the same is provided. The inflation identification connector is insertable into a connection seat of a gas delivery host. The connection seat has a light detection component coupled to a controller disposed in the gas delivery host. The inflation identification connector includes a body and an identification structure. The detection result of the light detection component depends on the identification structure and thus is conducive to identification. Upon its insertion into the connection seat, the inflation identification connector is identified by the gas delivery host, enhancing ease of use and protecting manual operation against mistakes. The gas delivery host is not only applicable to different types of air mattresses but also conducive to streamlined management of the air mattress system and reduction of management costs and risks.

  • Patent number: 10616015
    Abstract: A signal processing system and method, and an apparatus are provided. A phase recovery apparatus may be used to: receive a feedback signal fed back by an information iteration apparatus, perform, based on the feedback signal, phase recovery on a signal output by an equalizer, and output a phase-recovered signal to a post filtering apparatus, so that the post filtering apparatus performs noise filtering on the phase-recovered signal, and outputs a noise-filtered signal to the information iteration apparatus. To be specific, the phase recovery may be performed, based on the signal fed back by the information iteration apparatus, on the signal output by the equalizer. Because output of the information iteration apparatus is more accurate in determining the signal, precision of the phase recovery can be improved, cycle skipping is reduced, and input signal quality of the post filtering apparatus is improved.
