A method includes receiving a signal from a remote transmitter via an electrically-tunable antenna having a tunable element. An adjustment, to be applied to a response of the electrically-tunable antenna, is calculating by analyzing the received signal. The response of the electrically-tunable antenna is adapted by controlling the tunable element responsively to the estimated adjustment.

A resonant magnetic coupling wireless power transfer system with calibration capabilities of the resonant frequencies of its power transmitter(s) and power receiver(s) is disclosed. The system detects the peak voltages of the coil inductors or the resonant capacitors and tunes the resonant capacitors until the detected peak voltages reach their maximal values given proper setup conditions, so as to calibrate the inductor-capacitor (LC) resonance frequencies of the power transmitter(s) and the power receiver(s) in the resonant magnetic coupling wireless power transfer system to achieve the highest power transferred to the load and a high PTE.

The present disclosure is aimed at correcting a frequency of a clock signal of a sensor based on a clock signal input from a microcomputer. A detection system includes a sensor and a microcomputer. The sensor is configured to be able to output sampling data generated by performing analog/digital conversion on an analog signal sampled based on a clock signal. The microcomputer generates a clock signal and outputs the clock signal to the sensor, and reads out the sampling data from the sensor. The sensor corrects the frequency of the clock signal based on the clock signal.

Auto-tunable antenna devices and methods of using the same are described herein. One method for tuning an antenna of a device includes comparing a reference phase of a reference signal to a return phase of a return signal of the antenna and sending a correction signal to a tunable circuit element of the antenna in response to the reference phase being out of phase with the return phase.

A signal input from a microphone is A-D converted by an A-D converter, is frequency differentiated by a pre-emphasis circuit, and is input to a shift control circuit. The shift control circuit includes a limiter circuit, a phase shifter, and a harmonic suppressor. The limiter circuit performs amplitude limitation so as to limit the amplitude of the input control target signal to be equal to or less than a first threshold. The phase shifter shifts, for the control target signal having the amplitude limited, a phase of a frequency component within the predetermined frequency range. The harmonic suppressor suppresses, for the control target signal phase-shifted by the phase shifter, a frequency component equal to or greater than a second threshold, and outputs an information signal that is the control target signal having the frequency component of equal to or greater than the second threshold suppressed. The modulator performs frequency modulation on a carrier wave in accordance with the information signal. The transmitter produces a transmission signal from the frequency-modulated carrier wave, and transmits the transmission signal via an antenna.
