Device uses and device stereotypes

Deformable mirror device uses in frequency excision and optical switching.

A spatial light modulator is described which consists of a row of 1200 electrostatically deflectable mirror elements. This deformable mirror device is included in an acoustooptic spectrum analyzer and, as such, allows the removal of interfering signals from 333 frequency bands. Radiometric scans demonstrate the contrast and resolution possible with the device. Based on these results, the suitab...

Solver Device for Powdery Drugs

Pharmacotherapy is a major treatment method in healthcare centers, and the injection of powdered drugs is among common pharmacotherapy techniques. Medication errors and nosocomial infections are among major health issues in the world. On the other hand, powdered drugs are widely used in hospitals; however, drug mixture is a very time-consuming process. The objective of this invention was to acc...

Performance Analysis of Device to Device Communications Overlaying/Underlaying Cellular Network

Minimizing the outage probability and maximizing throughput are two important aspects in device to device (D2D) communications, which are greatly related to each other. In this paper, first, the exact formulas of the outage probability for D2D communications underlaying or overlaying cellular network are derived which jointly experience Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh multipat...

Developing a Device for Automated Peritoneal Dialysis

Background: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an efficient alternative for hemodialysis. Removal of waste metabolites and excess water from the blood circulation are the two main tasks done during dialysis. These are done by using a filter; in PD, the naturally semi-permeable peritoneal membrane acts as the filter. Automated PD machines control intelligently the operations to enhance the efficiency a...
