  • Publication number: 20240324974
    Abstract: The system includes a computed tomography gantry, a cart, a rail system, a rotary bearing and a lifting apparatus. In a translational operating state of the system, the cart is mounted to be movable along the rail system in a first translational motion along the rail system. The computed tomography gantry, the rotary bearing and the lifting apparatus are each held in the cart such that they follow the first translational motion of the cart. In the transitional operating state of the system, the cart is mounted to be movable, via the lifting apparatus, along a vertical axis of rotation relative to the rail system in a lifting motion, wherein the computed tomography gantry is held in the cart and follows the lifting motion of the cart relative to the rail system.

  • Publication number: 20240243713
    Abstract: A circuit structure including: a first amplifier stage having an input, and a second amplifier stage connected to the first amplifier stage. The second amplifier stage has an output. The first amplifier stage and the second amplifier stage carry a signal. A controller is configured to measure and modify at least one operational parameter of the signal. A first offset polarity detector-low pass filter (OPD-LPF) circuit connects the second amplifier stage output to the controller through a first controller input. A second OPD-LPF circuit connects the second amplifier stage to the controller through a second controller input. The controller measures an operational parameter of the signal for offset based on input from the first OPD-LPF circuit and the second OPD-LPF circuit. The controller modifies the operational parameter of the signal to correct signal offset.

  • Patent number: 10768221
    Abstract: A test equipment has a signal input/signal output and a use-site calibration unit for determining a user-site compensation function. The user-site compensation function has a compensation magnitude function and a compensation Hilbert phase function. The calibration unit has a level meter and a calculator. The level meter is configured to measure a magnitude characteristic of the electrical signal, the magnitude characteristic being the basis for the determination of the compensation Hilbert phase function. The calculator is configured to determine a Hilbert phase characteristic of the electrical signal based on a Hilbert transformation of a function dependent on the measured magnitude characteristic and to determine the compensation Hilbert phase function on the basis of the Hilbert phase characteristic.
