Centurion+ Patent Holders as of August 27, 2024

Herman Wiegman

Team member and Fellow at Beta Technologies.

Herman’s expertise is in technical analysis of power and control systems, and the construction of multidisciplinary models that directly feed real designs. Before BETA he worked on energy storage for GE Global Research where he was Principal Engineer in their Electric Power Technology Center.

Patent №: 12071223 (August 27, 2024) – System and method for automated flight correction in an electric aircraft.

This system includes an input control to generate a control datum, sensors to detect a status datum and a flight controller connected to both. The flight controller determines a command datum by comparing the control datum to a limitation set by the status datum and calculates a modified control datum based on the aircraft’s flight plan via a remote device.

Eric Matthew Kurtz

CAE Senior Manager at Hyundai America Technical Center, Inc. (HATCI).

Expert in thermodynamics, fluid flow, heat transfer, and combustion. 

Patent №: 12071886 (August 27, 2024) – System and method for engine cold start. Methods and systems for reducing emissions from an internal combustion engine involve using an electric heater and a selective reduction catalyst in a passage downstream of the combustor. Urea is injected into the catalyst to reduce NOx emissions produced by the combustor.

Patent №: 12070721 (August 27, 2024) – Engine cold start system and method. Methods and systems for reducing emissions from an internal combustion engine include using a combustor after shutdown to purge stored NOx from a passive NOx absorber and preparing for the next engine start. The released NOx is then reduced using a selective catalytic reduction catalyst.

Rajavelsamy Rajadurai

Principal Architect at Samsung.

Patent №: 12075243 (August 27, 2024) – Method and apparatus for authentication of integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node in wireless network. The method involves obtaining authorization information, verifying the IAB node’s authorization, and assigning a unique identity during setup processes. This identity is stored in the UE-context for use in authentication checks during IAB-Distributed Unit (DU) setup.

Arvind Srinivasan

Consulting Member Of Technical Staff at Oracle.

Patent №: 12074799 (August 27, 2024) – Improving end-to-end congestion reaction using adaptive routing and congestion-hint based throttling for IP-routed datacenter networks.

Methods to improve congestion management in IP-routed datacenter networks use adaptive routing and congestion-hint-based throttling. Network switches detect congestion, create congestion notification packets (CNPs), and send them back to the senders via non-congested or fastest paths. CNPs include flow identifiers, congestion levels, and timestamps to manage congestion and filter outdated notifications. Endpoint network interfaces store a table tracking congestion levels of different flows.

Hidehiro Fujiwara

TSMC Academician / Senior Manager.

Hidehiro received his B.E., M.E., and Ph.D. degrees from Kobe University, Kobe, Japan, in 2005, 2006, and 2009, respectively.

Dr. Fujiwara is a member of the IEEE Solid-State Circuit Society.

Patent №: 12074156 (August 27, 2024) – Memory array circuit and method of manufacturing same.

A memory array includes a first and second memory cell arranged in a first column along a first direction. A bit line extends over these cells in the same direction. The bit line comprises a first conductor in a first conductive layer and a second conductor in a different conductive layer, both extending in the first direction.
