Could anyone check my English, please?(^^)

In RF receiver, magnetic-coupling from a local oscillator causes self-mixing. This phenomenon generates large DC offset at the mixer output. It ends up malfunction at the system level. Although there are some factors to cause the self-mixing, the most possible reason is the leakage from on-chip inductor used as a part of tank circuit for the local oscillator. The inductor essentially spreads the magnetic flux abroad. It becomes serious problem in case of this leakage penetrating into the loops formed by the Power/Ground line or the input at the Low Noise Amplifier. To overcome the self-mixing, we propose novel shape of inductor. We name it “Back to Back Anti Phase Inductor”. This shape contributes to the reduction of the magnetic-coupling.
We went to "Roppongi Hills". This was my wife's request and the first time to hang around.I felt the same wave of some kind of European city. Buildings are modern and neat. Probably 20% of pedestrians are foreigner.I noticed just one blemish in that city. That is living cost. Let's take food cost for example.I can guess that business person needs to spend about 1000 yen for lunch. I can't believe it.At the canteen at the company I work for, I can have lunch/dinner with 450 yen. If you deliberately pick up dish, 300 yen is good enough. It's located in suburban area though.

I'm afraid we missed the chance to beget children. In some reasons or other, we procrastinated to become a parent.It's physically impossible for my wife to be pregnant at this time. Her body is removed the function to gestate because of surgery of uterus myoma.In retrospect, we should have had our children. What made me feel? Two reasons here.First, I begin to envy somebody having their children. The other day, I visited one of my colleagues in Kagoshima pref.He has two kids who are keen to football, swimming and English. He and his wife strongly dedicated themselves to support their kids.I could see their demeanor I've never seen in our office. But I felt the smell of "Family bond".Now I'm thinking that I wish we could have our kids.Besides, I can guess NO kids and relatives attend my death. I have a little worry about having to rely on help from others.Even if we have kids, I won't give them trouble for my care. But at least I want someone to be in at my finish.
