Abstract: The present invention is related to a signal spectrum analysis technology based on linear frequency modulation transformation (LFM) and fast digital pulse compression, which comprises two parts: a circuit for linear frequency modulation signal and an algorithm for fast digital pulse compression. Wherein, in the circuit the modulated chirp signals are obtained by the input signals mixing with the LO chirp signal and then filtered by the band-pass filter the intermediate frequency (IF) chirp signals are produced. The IF signals are composed of the chirp signals with the same frequency band and the chirp rate, but different initial times. Due to the IF chirp signals being orthogonal to each other, the spectrum of the input signals is extracted by the initial time and the orthogonal accumulation. The full spectrum of the input signal is obtained by changing the start position of the sampling data sets along the time axis.

Abstract: A reconfigurable antenna array capable of utilizing a common antenna aperture which can cover a wide frequency range in a continuous way. With the basic antenna element based on a slot-ring and using a self similar structure approach and RE' switches, the antenna array operates without grating lobes. The antenna array exhibits polarization diversity and single-side radiation capability. When varactors are implemented into the array, the antenna array can cover the frequency range by continuously tuning the center frequency with a relatively narrow instantaneous bandwidth.

Abstract: A social networking system selects a set of groups for presentation to a user of the social networking system. To select groups, the social networking system determining scores for various groups representing a likelihood of the user interacting with the groups. When determining a score for a group, the social networking system accounts for a likelihood of the user providing content to the group as well as the user accessing or viewing content associated with the group. Based on the scores, one or more groups are selected and presented to the user. Additionally, the social networking system may apply one or more diversity rules so that the selected groups have a variety of characteristics.
