    Abstract: An antenna structure with wide radiation bandwidth in a reduced physical space includes a metallic housing, a first feed portion, and a second feed portion. The metallic housing includes a metallic side frame and a metallic back board. The metallic side frame defines a slot, and first and second gaps. The metallic side frame between the first gap and one end of the slot forms a first radiation portion. The second gap divides the first radiation portion into first and second radiation sections. The first feed portion feeds current and signal to the first radiation section, and the first radiation section works in a GPS mode and a WIFI 2.4 GHz mode. The second feed portion feeds current and signal to the second radiation section, and the second radiation section works in a WIFI 5 GHz mode.

  • Publication number: 20240085867
    Abstract: A static auto-tuning system and method for controlling operation of a motor in a system. A speed reference signal is generated resulting in a speed response of the motor. Closed-loop feedback magnifies the rotating friction effect to an observable level. Inertia and rotating friction coefficient values of the system are estimated based on the speed frequency response and a virtual damping coefficient. A fixed low frequency speed signal may result in a first frequency response function for determining virtual damping, and a variable frequency excitation signal may result in a second frequency response function for determining the inertia and rotating friction characteristics. Closed-loop gains are determined based on these characteristics. The excitation signal may be sampled and a peak value in each interval may be identified and stored to produce an envelope of peak values for determining the gain response. Operation of the motor is controlled using the determined gains.
