智能手机的硬件也能帮助减少电力消耗,并实现更快的数据传输。目前,无线产业仍然面临着一个根本问题:越来越多的功能和越来越高的数据传输速度,正越来越快地消耗手机的电池。幸好,手机内的一些部件还有改进的余地,将电能转换成射频能量的“功率放大器”就是其中之一。现在,科学家们正在着力研究智能更高的功率发大器,希望籍此降低电能的浪费。 Smartphone hardware can also help reduce power consumption and enable faster data transfer. At present, the wireless industry still faces a fundamental problem: more and more functions and higher and higher data transmission speeds are rapidly depleting the cell phone’s battery. Fortunately, there are still some room for improvement in some parts of the phone, one of which is the “power amplifier” that converts electrical energy into radio frequency energy. Now scientists are working hard on smarter power amplifiers, hoping to reduce the waste of energy.
