Abstract:
A device and a method for analyzing an analyte in a liquid sample are provided. The device comprises a detecting chamber included in a detection device for containing a detecting element; a liquid sample transferring chamber; and a film with small pores disposed between the detecting chamber and liquid sample transferring chamber. When the detection device is inserted into a liquid sample collecting chamber, the liquid sample in the collecting chamber enters the liquid sample transferring chamber but can not enter the detecting chamber via the film with small pores. When a piston is inserted into the liquid sample transferring chamber, the piston forces a part of liquid sample in the liquid sample transferring chamber to enter the detecting chamber via the film with small pores. Using the device and the method can determine an analyte in a sample quantitatively and can complete the detection in one step.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for impairment shifting may comprise receiving radio frequency (RF) signals in a receiver, downconverting the signals to baseband frequencies, and synchronizing the receiver to received signals. The frequency of a local oscillator (LO) may be adjusted to shift residual impairments to fall between desired baseband signals where they are least visible. The received RF signals may comprise analog, satellite, or cable, television signals. The LO frequency may be adjusted to configure the DC offset impairments to fall between luminance and chrominance harmonics. The LO frequency may be adjusted to configure I/Q imbalanced impairments from residual in-phase and quadrature mismatch of a picture carrier signal to fall about 300 kHz from a sound carrier signal in the analog television signals. The LO frequency may be adjusted to configure the I/Q imbalanced impairments from residual I/Q mismatch of a sound carrier signal to fall between luminance and chrominance harmonics.
Abstract:
A receiver includes a static I/Q calibration block and a correlation/integration block. The static I/Q calibration block is configured to substantially eliminate mismatches between in-phase and quadrature components of a portion of the spectrum having associated I/Q mismatches that are relatively frequency-independent. The correlation/integration block is configured to substantially eliminate mismatches between the in-phase and quadrature components of portions of the spectrum having associated I/Q mismatches that are relatively frequency-dependent in accordance with a pair of signals generated by the static I/C calibration block.

Abstract:
A spiral-wound membrane structure includes a central pipe and a film roll. The central pipe comprises a filter body and end covers separately connected to two ends of the filter body. A passage is formed in the center of the filter body, and two ends of the filter body are embedded in the end covers to be bonded on and sealed by the end covers. The film roll includes a guide cloth, a membrane and a mesh. The film roll is wound on the central pipe. The central pipe is directly made of a filter material, can be used as a pre-filter or post-filter, and can be matched with the film roll in the spiral-wound membrane structure to form a highly-integrated two-in-one composite filter. The composite filter can be mounted on a water purifier.

Abstract:
A device includes an analog front end for receiving a radio frequency (RF) signal. The analog front end contains a local oscillator that is tuned to a local oscillation frequency for down-converting the received RF signal to a first intermediate frequency (IF) signal. An analog-to-digital converter module converts the first IF signal to a digital baseband signal. The device also includes a digital processing unit for processing the baseband signal. The digital processing unit generates multiple clock signals from a reference oscillator having digitally adjustable reference frequency. The reference frequency and the multiple clock signals may interfere with the local oscillator and generate several frequency spurs that may fall within the bandwidth of the received RF signal. In a preferred embodiment, the digital processing unit adjusts the reference frequency by a certain amount so that the spurs do not fall within the RF signal bandwidth.
