Testing a plurality of communication devices. A plurality of signals may be received from the plurality of communication devices. The plurality of signals may include a signal from each of the plurality of communication devices, where a first subset of the plurality of signals has a different frequency than a second subset of the plurality of signals. The received signals may be combined into a combined signal. The combined signal may be downconverted to a combined signal, e. g. , by mixing the combined signal with an output from at least one local oscillator. The downconverting may generate a plurality of lower frequency signals, each corresponding to one of the plurality of received signals. Testing may be performed on each of the plurality of lower frequency signals.

Abstract:
A robotic mower boundary sensing system includes a boundary driving circuit on a charging station transmitting an encoded signal on a boundary wire, a boundary sensor on a robotic mower and including an inductor receiving the encoded signal, and a vehicle control unit on the robotic mower receiving the encoded signal from the boundary sensor and decoding the signal and cross correlating the received signal to determine the distance of the boundary sensor from the boundary wire.
Amplitude/Phase Delay Calibration For Envelope-Tracking Amplifier

National Instruments Corporation - Austin TX
International Classification:
H04B 3/46
US Classification:
375224, 375232, 375297, 375298, 375308
Abstract:
A system and method for estimating a time delay introduced by an envelope tracking amplifier (ETA) of a transmitter. The ETA receives a first baseband signal that is generated by the transmitter and operates on the first baseband signal to produce an output signal. The receiver receives a second baseband signal in response to the transmitter's transmission of the output signal. The receiver generates a model signal that represents an estimate of the first baseband signal. The receiver computes a first time delay between the amplitude envelopes of the second baseband signal and the model signal. The receiver computes a second time delay between phase signals derived respectively from the second baseband signal and the model signal. The receiver estimates the time delay that is introduced by the ETA of the transmitter by subtracting the second time delay from the first time delay.

International Classification:
G06F 15/00
US Classification:
702123
Abstract:
System and method for testing units under test (UUTs). A test sequence is provided that includes an acquisition sequence and a processing sequence. The acquisition sequence may include a sequence of acquisition functions for performing acquisitions on one or more UUTs. The processing sequence may include a sequence of processing functions for processing measurement data resulting from the acquisitions. Each acquisition function may be performed, including performing a plurality of acquisitions, thereby generating respective measurement data sets, and storing the respective measurement data sets in order of the acquisitions. Each processing function may be performed, including retrieving and processing each respective measurement data set in order of acquisition. At least one processing function of the processing sequence may be performed concurrently with at least one acquisition function of the acquisition sequence.

Assignee:
Motorola, Inc. - Schaumburg IL
International Classification:
H01G 900 H01G 210 B65D 5100 H05K 900
US Classification:
361500
Abstract:
An energy storage assembly is made of an energy storage device, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield, and an adhesive positioned between the EMI shield and the energy storage device for affixing the energy storage device to a surface of the EMI shield. The EMI shield is a metal that is shaped to partially enclose an electrical component other than the energy storage device.
Collecting Data To Generate An Agricultural Prescription
A method begins by a drive unit affiliated with farm equipment receiving data from the farm equipment to produce agricultural data. The method continues with the drive unit determining a filtering constraint based on one or more parameters selected from a plurality of lists of agricultural parameters and filtering the agricultural data based on the filtering constraint to produce filtered agricultural data. The method continues with the drive unit determining processing of the filtered agricultural data and executing the processing of the filtered agricultural data.
