| 20090096455 | ARRANGEMENT TO TRANSMIT MAGNETIC RESONANCE SIGNALS - An arrangement to transmit magnetic resonance signals has at least two reception branches. Each reception branch contains a single antenna of a local coil as well as an amplifier connected with the single antenna, such that an amplified magnetic resonance signal is formed from a magnetic resonance signal that is acquired via the single antenna. In a multiplexer, each input is connected with a respective reception branch, such that the amplified magnetic resonance signals of the reception branch are combined by the multiplexer into a resulting signal using a time multiplexing method. A transmission path is connected on one side with an output of the multiplexer and on the other side with a receiver, such that the resulting signal is transmitted from the multiplexer to the receiver via the transmission path. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090179705 | IMPEDANCE-MAPPING AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT WITH EXCLUSIVELY REACTIVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK - An amplifier circuit has a transistor element that has an input terminal, an output terminal) and a third terminal. An input signal to be amplified is supplied to the input terminal. The amplified input signal is emitted as an output signal at the output terminal. The input terminal is connected with the output terminal via a first reactance. The third terminal is connected via a second reactance with a zero potential. One of the reactances is fashioned as an inductor and the other of the reactances is fashioned as a capacitor. An inductance value of the inductor and a capacitance value of the capacitor are dimensioned such that the quotient of the inductance value of the inductor and the capacitance value of the capacitor is equal to the product of a desired input impedance that is effective at the input terminal and an output impedance associated with the output impedance. Based on this dimensioning, the output impedance associated with the output terminal is mapped to the input terminal at the same level or scaled. | 07-16-2009 |

| 20090286478 | ARRANGEMENT TO TRANSMIT MAGNETIC RESONANCE SIGNALS - An arrangement for transmitting magnetic resonance signals, with a transmission link that connects a local coil with a receiver, has a first channel of the local coil with a first single antenna to acquire a first magnetic resonance signal, as well as a first mixer connected with the first single antenna. The first mixer forms an intermediate-frequency first signal from the supplied first magnetic resonance signal. A second channel of the local coil has a second single antenna to acquire a second magnetic resonance signal, as well as a second mixer connected with the second single antenna. The second mixer forms an intermediate-frequency second signal from the supplied second magnetic resonance signal. The local coil has a device for signal combination that, by frequency multiplexing, that combines the intermediate-frequency first signal of the first channel and the intermediate-frequency second signal of the second channel so that it arrives at the receiver via the transmission path. The receiver has an A/D converter at which one of the transmitted intermediate-frequency signals of an associated channel arrives in order to be sampled with a sampling frequency for digitization. For frequency conversion, a first local oscillator frequency is connected at the first mixer and a second local oscillator frequency is connected at the second mixer. the first and second local oscillator frequencies are selected such that intermediate-frequencies formed by the frequency conversion are mirror-symmetrical relative to the sampling frequency of the A/D converter. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20100117653 | DIPLEX FILTER AND METHOD TO FILTER SIGNALS - A diplex filter is formed by two impedance-transforming filters with separate transmission frequency ranges and with separate cut-off frequency ranges and a connection node at which two series elements of the two filters are connected. These two series elements are each fashioned as a parallel oscillating circuit, each parallel oscillating circuit exhibiting a predetermined reactance in a midband of the respective transmission frequency range and a parallel resonance in a midband of the respective cut-off frequency range. The diplex filter can be realized in a simple and cost-effective manner without ferrite-containing special components, for instance inductively coupled coils or tapped coils thereby allowing use thereof in a magnetic resonance tomograph, for example. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100157859 | REMOTELY FED MODULE - In a method and device for the transmission of a multiplicity of signals having different frequencies between a base station and a module situated at a location remote from the base station via a single, common cable connection, some of the signals being transmitted from the electronic assembly to the module and, in general simultaneously, the remaining signals are transmitted in the opposite direction. Each of the base station and the module has bandpass filter bank therein having a multiplicity of bandpass filters, the number thereof being a function of the number of channels to be transmitted, with which the respectively received signals are spectrally separated from one another so that they are available for further signal processing in the base station, or for further use in the module. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100274086 | POSITION CONTROL OF MEDICAL APPLIANCES IN THE HUMAN BODY BY MEANS OF PHASE DIFFERENCE MEASUREMENT - A system measures a change in position of a medical appliance, such as an endoscopy capsule. A device uses this measurement in order to influence the position of the medical appliance. The medical appliance sends a signal that is received by a multiplicity of spatially separate receiving devices. The time profile of the phase differences between the received signals and a reference signal provides an indication of whether the medical appliance has moved. In the event of a movement being detected, a maneuvering device can be regulated by a regulating means in such a way that the maneuvering device generates forces and/or torques and applies them to the medical appliance to counteract the detected movement. | 10-28-2010 |
