An embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus, comprising an input port and a dynamic impedance matching network capable of determining a mismatch at the input port and dynamically changing the RF match by using at least one matching element that includes at least one voltage tunable dielectric capacitor. The matching network may be a “Pi”, a “T”, or “ladder” type network and the apparatus may further comprise at least one directional coupler capable of signal collection by sampling a portion of an incident signal, a reflected signal or both. In an embodiment of the present invention, the apparatus may also include a control and power control & logic unit (PC LU) to convert input analog signals into digital signals and sensing VSWR phase and magnitude and processing the digital signals using an algorithm to give it a voltage value and wherein the voltage values may be compared to values coming from the coupler and once compared and matched, the values may be passed to a Hi Voltage Application Specific Integrated Circuit (HV ASIC) to transfer and distribute compensatory voltages to the matching network elements.

A new methodology for dealing with the Electric-Magnetic Anti-skid Braking System (EMABS) and recycling the regenerating energy on braking is proposed. Developing a dynamic damper which comprising positive and negative type resistors connected in series becomes a fast switch with adaptation, attenuation and fast recovery system properties, is a crucial turnkey. For braking purpose, the most general configuration is to couple the fast switches to the stator and rotor coils in an AC alternator that is driven by the vehicle's wheels or propellers. After performing the dynamic impedance matching in this braking system, the EMABS effect and recycling of the regenerating energy on braking are accordingly obtained.

A resonant circuit tuning system and a method for tuning are provided. The resonant circuit tuning system may include a resonant circuit having a first capacitive element in series between a transmitter and an antenna coil and a second capacitive element in parallel with the transmitter and the antenna coil. At least one of the first capacitive element and second capacitive element may be configured to be varied. The resonant circuit tuning system also may include a controller for controlling a variable value of at least one of the first and second capacitive elements.

The present invention provides a technique for enabling multiple devices to be interfaced together over a bus that requires dynamic impedance controls. In one embodiment, an apparatus is provided for enabling a multi-device environment on a bus, where the bus requires active termination impedance control. The apparatus includes a first node and multi-processor logic. The first node receives an indication that a corresponding device is at a physical end of the bus or that the corresponding device is an internal device. The multi-processor logic is coupled to the first node. The multi-processor logic controls how a second node is driven according to the indication, where the second node is coupled to the bus.
