  • Patent number: 8798968
    Abstract: A computing device and a method for scattering parameter equivalent circuit reads a scattering parameter file from a storage device.

  • Patent number: 8768993
    Abstract: A direct current compensation method for S-parameter rational functions reads S-parameters f(sk), which are generated at given frequency sk, from a storage unit. An S-parameter, which is generated at frequency sk=0 is supplemented into the S-parameters f(sk), upon the condition that there is no S-parameter which is generated at the frequency sk=0. An S-parameter ration function is generated according to the S-parameters f(sk). A DC level of the S-parameter rational function is compensated to generate a compensated S-parameter rational function.

  • Patent number: 8744795
    Abstract: A method for modulating multiple-instruments and multiple-sensors using an electronic device. The electronic device controls an instrument to measure the working parameters of an object, and controls a sensor to detect the working temperature of the object. By comparing the working parameters against a predefined range, and comparing the working temperature against a predefined temperature value, the electronic device determines whether the instrument and the sensor need to be modulated. If any of the working parameters is not within the predefined range or if the working temperature is greater than the predefined temperature value, the electronic device controls the instrument and the sensor to be modulated by using a modulation transfer function and a predetermined direction.

  • Patent number: 8626482
    Abstract: A simulation system for producing equivalent circuits reads data corresponding to a tabular W element format in a storage device, and adds data of the tabular W element format file using interpolation algorithm. A frequency-dependent transmission matrix is transformed into an N-port network matrix describing electrical properties of a multi-input and multi-output network. An N-port network matrix is transformed into a S-parameter matrix. A range of frequency of a s-parameter is determined and numbers of pole-residue, times for recursion and durable maximum system errors in the equivalent circuit is also determined. A vector fitting algorithm is performed and a rational function matrix composed with s-parameters is produced, to produce a general SPICE equivalent circuit based on the generated rational function matrix.
