    Abstract: A signal processing device includes: an amplitude reducing unit to reduce, when a phase shift control signal indicating a phase shift of a transmission wave whose frequency is modulated is output, among amplitudes of a beat signal having a difference frequency between the transmission wave and a reception wave, an amplitude of the beat signal at a timing at which a phase of the transmission wave is shifted in accordance with the phase shift control signal; and a signal converting unit to convert the beat signal whose amplitude at the timing at which the phase of the transmission wave is shifted is reduced by the amplitude reducing unit into a signal in a frequency domain.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a medical imaging system (10), comprising:—an X-ray image acquisition unit (20);—a shield placement unit (30);—a radar unit (40); and—a processing unit (50) The X-ray image acquisition unit is configured to acquire an X-ray image of a patient. The shield placement unit is configured to move at least one shield to cover at least one part of the patient to stop or limit X-ray exposure of the at least one part of the patient. The processing unit is configured to control the shield placement unit to move and position the at least one shield. The radar unit is configured to obtain radio frequency “RF” data, wherein the RF data is obtained from the emission of RF radiation and the sensing of reflected RF radiation, and wherein the reflected RF radiation comprises RF radiation reflected from a shield of the at least one shield. The processing unit is configured to control the shield placement unit to move the shield with respect to the patient, and wherein the control comprises utilization of the RF data.

    Abstract: Wireless communications network architecture options for cooperative sensing and positioning. A sensing management function (SnMF) may be deployed as a network entity within the core network that supports, manages, analyzes, etc., the sensing output(s) of nodes of a wireless network. The SnMF may obtain radio frequency (RF) signal metrics from wireless nodes of a radio access network (RAN), such as base station(s), user equipment (UE), vehicle-based UE(s), wireless nodes deployed within a factory setting, and the like. The RF signal metrics may correspond to, or otherwise be associated with, reflections of RF signal transmissions off of objects. The SnMF may process the RF signal metrics to identify or otherwise determine the various properties of the objects. An application layer entity, such as an application function (AF), may also be implemented within the core network that issues sensing queries and receives reports about the sensing procedures from the SnMF.

    Abstract: A balanced power amplifier includes a first power amplifier configured to apply a first gain having a first predetermined magnitude and a first programmable phase adjustable phase to generate a first amplified signal, the first programmable phase being adjustable to either a first phase or to a second phase that is 180° phase shifted relative to the first phase; a second power amplifier configured to apply a second gain having a second predetermined magnitude and a second programmable phase to generate a second amplified signal, the second programmable phase being adjustable to either the first phase or to the second phase; and a 90° hybrid coupler configured to receive the first amplified signal and the second amplified signal and generate and output a first output signal or a second output signal based on a combination of the first amplified signal and the second amplified signal.
