Abstract: A non-contact cardiogram measurement method is disclosed. The method includes: measuring, by a Doppler radar or a pulse radar, a distance change between the radar and a skin surface through an electromagnetic wave, a light wave and a sound wave; deriving a displacement curve indicating a change in a human heart volume; taking first-order and second-order derivations of the displacement curve to acquire velocity and acceleration curves; taking zero points and extreme points of the velocity and acceleration curves as velocity and acceleration information, and as characteristic points of different stages of atrial and ventricular systole and diastole; acquiring time, volume change, velocity and acceleration information of atrial and ventricular systole and diastole in a cardiac cycle. The present disclosure features low cost and low radiation hazard, avoids direct contact with the human body, and provides a convenient and easy way for daily cardiac diagnostic measurement of special patients.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for a complex domain radio frequency (RF) frontend, adaptive beamforming can separate the relatively slowly changed waveform delay information required from wideband RF signals, upon which a self-contained beamforming system is implemented with a low-speed baseband. By introducing vector RF multipliers in the frontend of the present invention, the amplitude and phase of RF signals are simultaneously controlled by the real and imaginary parts of complex numbers, such that beamforming algorithms derived in complex domain can be directly applied without any form of transformation. By doing so, the massive use of conventional T/R modules and high-speed baseband devices can be avoided, thus simplifying the realization and decreasing the cost of wideband digital beamforming systems for use in low cost, power efficient beamforming applications.

Abstract: A gyrotropic metamaterial structure that include a plurality of chiral metamaterials forming one or more pairs of dipole structures. A plurality of lumped circuits are positioned between the one or more pairs of dipole structures. The lumped circuits have a plurality of subwavelengths antennas that are combined to change the polarization states of an incident polarized wave by producing Faraday-like rotation allowing for nomeciprocal propagation of the incident polarized wave.
