An integrated circuit includes an RF receiver having an AGC module that generates an automatic gain control signal based on a strength of a received signal, and a low noise amplifier that amplifies the received signal based on the AGC signal. The method includes the steps of exciting the first atom of the pair of spinspin coupled atoms within the magnetic resonance imaging system at a Larmor frequency of the first atom and exciting the second atom at the Larmor frequency of the second atom. The at least one pivoting mechanism retains a container thereon. The location or position estimate of the MT can be calculated based upon at least the preamble broadcasted by the neighbor base stations.
