Centurion Patentors as of November 19, 2024

Patrick J Turner
VP Technology at Resonant Inc., MuRata Company.
Patent №: 12149227 (November 19, 2024) – Transversely-excited film bulk acoustic resonator package.

Acoustic resonator devices feature a piezoelectric plate with a diaphragm over a substrate cavity. Interdigital transducer fingers and contact pads form a first conductor pattern. An interposer encloses the diaphragm, with a second conductor pattern connecting the first contact pads to external contact pads.

Patent №: 12149948 (November 19, 2024) – System, method, and apparatus for providing dynamic, prioritized spectrum management and utilization. Systems, methods, and apparatuses enable dynamic, prioritized spectrum management using monitoring sensors, a data analysis engine, applications, a semantic engine, a rules editor, a tip and cue server, and a control panel. The tip and cue server combines environmental awareness with processed data to generate actionable insights.

Patent №: 12149946 (November 19, 2024) – System, method, and apparatus for providing optimized network resources. Systems, methods, and apparatuses optimize network resources by monitoring and analyzing the electromagnetic environment. They integrate customer goals and user-defined policies to extract actionable insights, enabling resource optimization.

Ronny Hadani
Associate Professor of mathematics at University of Texas at Austin.
Patent №: 12149386 (November 19, 2024) – Method and apparatus for determining a channel state of an impaired data channel.

Methods use pilot waveform bursts to create 2D channel state models, optimizing data transmission by leveraging imperfections like echoes. Wireless channels benefit from detailed models using polarization and multiple antennas, enhancing both legacy and modern communication systems.

Jesper Bruun Jensen
Fellow, Demant (Oticon A/S), Prof. Aalborg University.

Patent №: 12149882 (November 19, 2024) – Hearing device comprising a noise reduction system. A hearing device captures electric signals with an input unit, estimates target speech using a noise reduction system, and detects the user’s voice with an own voice detector based on a probability threshold. Noise is identified during segments when the detector indicates the signal likely originates from the user’s voice.

Hiroyuki Kobayashi
Hiroyuki Kobayashi received the B.S. in nuclear engineering from Nagoya University, Japan, in 1997, and the M.S. and Ph.D. in quantum engineering and systems science from Tokyo University, Japan, in 1999 and 2002, respectively.
He joined Hitachi’s Mechanical Engineering Research Laboratory, Tokyo. In 2004, he transferred to Hitachi’s Central Research Laboratory.
His current research interests include plasma etching for semiconductor devices and gas temperature measurement in various kinds of plasmas.
