20090146740 | Average power efficiency enhancement and linearity improvement of microwave power amplifiers - A biasing circuit is used to provide low distortion and high efficiency operation of a microwave power amplifier. The biasing circuit utilizes the nonlinear rectified current of a microwave diode or transistor for biasing the amplifying transistor self-adaptively. The biasing current not only reduces the DC bias power during low-power operation and increases self-adaptively during high-power operation, but also manipulates the intermodulation distortion minimum dynamically. Meanwhile, the biasing circuit distorts the input signals with positive gain and negative phase deviations. Therefore, the average power efficiency of the operation is enhanced, the linearity of the input-output characteristic is improved and the radiated level of adjacent channel power is suppressed. | 06-11-2009 |

Fluid with a lower temperature from the fluid inlet header pipe enters into the heat collector panels, where it is heated to a higher temperature by the solar energy stored therein, and then discharges from the system via the fluid outlet header pipe for energy reuse. The heat collector panels are mounted on the inner surface of the cladding panels of the building, so that the outer appearance of the building will not be negatively influenced by the system. | 11-10-2011 |

20100295659 | IDENTIFYING RFID CATEGORIES - The set T of all categories in a population of RFID tags is estimated within a specified error bound. For each of one or more frames, a reader broadcasts a probability p, a multiplicity d, a frame size M, and a seed value R to the present tags. A deterministic algorithm on each tag, and known to the reader, calculates (i) whether the tag will transmit in this frame, and, if so, (ii) in which slots the tag will transmit a single “1.” When the tags have responded, the reader calculates set T by initially assuming that all possible categories are in set T and then eliminating those categories that would have transmitted in those slots in which no tag transmitted. Alternatively, the reader initially assumes that set T is empty, and adds those categories that would have transmitted in those slots in which one or more tags did transmit. | 11-25-2010 |
