  • Publication number: 20240054377
    Abstract: A perturbation radio frequency (RF) signal generator is provided which generates a perturbed RF output signal to cause a signal classification change by an RF signal classifier. The perturbation RF signal generator may include a quantum computing circuit configured to perform quantum subset summing; and a processor. The processor may be configured to generate a game theory reward matrix for a plurality of different deep learning signal perturbation models, cooperate with the quantum computing circuit to perform quantum subset summing of the game theory reward matrix, select a deep learning signal perturbation model from the plurality thereof based upon the quantum subset summing of the game theory reward matrix, and generate the perturbed RF output signal based upon the selected deep learning signal perturbation model to cause the signal classification change in the RF signal classifier.

  • Patent number: 11617568
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a disposable assembly and a reusable assembly. The disposable assembly includes a fluid input port, a fluid output port, and a tube configured to provide fluid communication between the fluid input port and the fluid output port. The reusable assembly includes a housing, a fluid management assembly that is configured to transition between an open position and a closed position, and a sensing assembly. The fluid management assembly is configured to prevent fluid from traveling past the tube to the fluid output port in the closed position. The sensing assembly is configured to sense fluid accumulating within the tube while the fluid management assembly is in the closed position. The sensing assembly is also configured to drive the fluid management assembly from the closed position to the open position when the sensing assembly detects fluid within the tube at a predetermined range.

  • Patent number: 11588613
    Abstract: Systems and methods for operating a quantum network system. The methods comprise, by a network node: generating optical clock pulses and photons using the optical clock pulses; generating a combined signal by combining the optical clock pulses with at least some of the photons such that a consistent temporal offset exits between the optical clock pulses and the first photons and/or a wave function of each photon at least partially overlaps an envelope of a respective one of the optical clock pulses; and transmitting the combined signal over a first quantum channel in which the optical clock pulses co-propagate with the photons.

  • Publication number: 20220008287
    Abstract: A compression measurement and feedback system which measures the magnitude and the angle of manual CPR force applied to a patient and provides the measured magnitude and direction information as compression data feedback to the person applying CPR to the patient. Any variation in the magnitude or direction of the compression force applied may be calculated from the compression data measured by the compression sensor. A monitor receives the compression data and processes the compression data to generate feedback data to the CPR provider indicating the magnitude and direction of the applied CPR compression along with ideal CPR compression characteristics for comparison.
