  • Patent number: 8774333
    Abstract: A signal processing apparatus includes a signal generating block arranged to generate a target estimated signal of a specific signal component in an input signal. The signal generating block includes a reference signal generating circuit, a signal processing circuit, and a signal adjusting circuit. The reference signal generating circuit is arranged to generate a reference estimated signal for the specific signal component in the input signal. The signal processing circuit is coupled to the reference signal generating circuit, and arranged to process the reference estimated signal and accordingly generate a signal processing result. The signal adjusting circuit is coupled to the signal processing circuit and the reference signal generating circuit, and arranged to output the target estimated signal by adjusting the reference estimated signal according to the signal processing result.

  • Patent number: 8570154
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for operating a system of first and second readers. In the method, a processor is provided to produce a command. The command is used to get the first reader in an active mode and the second reader in a standby mode. The second reader is wakened up so that the first and second readers are in the active mode at the same time. The first reader is switched to the standby mode while the second reader is retained in the active mode.

  • Publication number: 20130106670
    Abstract: An antenna disposed on a substrate includes a radiating portion, a first coupling and feeding portion, and a second coupling and feeding portion. A length of the radiating portion is substantially equal to a half wavelength of electromagnetic signals radiated by the radiating portion. Each coupling and feeding portion includes a feeding part and a coupling part. The feeding part feeds the electromagnetic signals to the radiating portion via the coupling part so as to achieve effects of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna. A gap is defined between the coupling part and the radiating portion to improve an isolation of the MIMO antenna.

  • Patent number: 8174441
    Abstract: A configurable calculating circuit includes a multiplexer, a mixer and an accumulator. The multiplexer is for receiving input signals including at least a first and a second input signals, and selectively outputting at least one of the input signals. The mixer is for mixing a selected input signal outputted from the multiplexer with a local oscillation signal to generate a mixed signal. The accumulator is for accumulating the mixed signal to generate an accumulated signal. When the configurable calculating circuit is operated under a first mode, the multiplexer selects the first input signal, and the accumulator performs a first accumulating operation upon the mixed signal; and when the configurable calculating circuit is operated under a second mode, the multiplexer selects the second input signal, and the accumulator performs a second accumulating operation, different from the first accumulating operation, upon the mixed signal.
