Abstract: A pipeline separation device for liquid-propellant rocket comprising a first flange pipeline, a second flange pipeline, a clamping unit, a push-and-pull unit and an actuation unit. The first flange pipeline and the second flange pipeline dock along a first direction, a docking end surface docking with each other is limited by the clamping unit, and end surfaces opposite to each other after docking of the first flange pipeline and the second flange pipeline are respectively used for connecting with different medium pipelines; the actuation unit is used for pushing the push-and-pull unit so that the clamping unit relieves limit on the docking end surface. Being provided with a clamping unit and an actuation unit, the pipeline separation device for liquid-propellant rocket is capable of quickly pushing the clamping unit out when the actuation unit works, thereby relieving the limit on the first flange pipeline and the second flange pipeline.

Abstract: Apparatus and method embodiments are provided for improving power efficiency in an outphasing amplifier with a non-isolating combiner. The embodiments include reducing the driving power to two power amplifiers (PAs) of the amplifier circuit in the low input signal power region in an asymmetric manner between the two PAs. An embodiment method includes receiving, at a signal decomposer, an input signal, detecting a power amplitude of the input signal, and determining whether the input signal corresponds to one of a plurality of operation modes according to the detected power amplitude of the input signal and a plurality of power thresholds corresponding to the operation modes. Upon determining that the power amplitude of the input signal corresponds to a first mode from the operation modes, the input signal is decomposed into two component signals including at least one signal that has a reduced and scaled amplitude proportional to the input signal.

Abstract: Pre-distortion, whose magnitude—and preferably phase—are frequency-dependent, is applied to an input signal in order to reduce spurious emissions resulting from subsequent amplification of the signal. In preferred embodiments, the pre-distortion technique of the present invention is implemented in combination with the (frequency-independent) magnitude and phase pre-distortion technique described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/395,490 (“the '490 application”), where the frequency-dependent pre-distortion corresponds to amplifier distortion that has a magnitude that is proportional to the frequency offset from the carrier frequency and a phase shift of ±90° on either side of the carrier frequency. The frequency-dependent pre-distortion is generated by differentiating waveforms corresponding to pre-distortion parameters with respect to time and then applying the resulting differentiated pre-distortion parameters to the input signal.

Abstract: Current and previous input signal power measures are used to generate a combined index value that is applied to one or more composite look-up tables (e.g., an I LUT and a Q LUT) to retrieve one or more pre-distortion parameters (e.g., I and Q). In one embodiment, a combined index value is generated by concatenating current and previous power measures, where each composite LUT maps all possible combinations of the current and previous power measures to the corresponding pre distortion parameters values. By using a composite LUT for each of I and Q, the overall signal processing time of the pre-distortion processing can be greatly reduced relative to the prior art, resulting in a significantly smaller RF delay line used to delay the input signal and thereby providing a less costly and more efficient amplifier system.
