  • Patent number: 12638431
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to an environment analysis platform for air composition estimation. The environment analysis platform may receive a set of environment information corresponding to an environment from one or more environment information sources. The environment analysis platform may generate an estimated air composition using an environment analysis model. The environment analysis platform may generate a cumulative particle score based on the estimated air composition. The environment analysis platform may determine whether or not the cumulative particle score satisfies a criteria. The criteria may indicate whether the environment is a compliant environment or an outlier environment. The environment analysis platform may send one or more commands directing a user device to display a user interface based on the determination.

  • Patent number: 12134125
    Abstract: Methods for manufacturing rotary target materials that allow a material to be cast in a melting zone of a casting vessel while the vessel is rotated such that a melting zone is below a casting zone. The vessel is sealed and the pressure inside the vessel is reduced and the exterior of the vessel is heated. The melting zone of the vessel is heated to a temperature that melts the material and releases any trapped gasses which can be pumped out using the vacuum pump. Once the melting zone and molten material have reached a specified temperature, outgassed, and the casting zone has reached a temperature to maximize adhesion and reduce voids and defects, the vessel is rotated until the melting zone is directly above the casting zone to transfer the material from the melting zone to the casting zone.

  • Patent number: 11133576
    Abstract: A rectenna for high efficiency RF-to-DC wireless energy harvesting that includes an off-center-fed patch (OCFP) antenna and a rectifying circuit. The input impedance of the antenna may be tunable and directly conjugate matched to an impedance of the rectifying circuit over a wide range of frequencies and/or under different operating conditions. An impedance matching network required by rectenna systems may therefore be eliminated using the methods disclosed for the design and implementation of the OCFP rectenna. The OCFP rectenna offers consistently high RF-to-DC power conversion efficiency over a wide range of frequencies and under different operating conditions.

  • Patent number: 11083391
    Abstract: Aspects of the present invention are generally directed to impedance spectroscopy in an active implantable medical device (AIMD) comprising a component with one or more electrodes. In an embodiment, the AIMD applies a signal at a plurality of frequencies using one or more of the electrodes. Measurements are then obtained for the applied signal to determine impedance(s) at the applied frequencies of the tissue in which the electrodes are located.
