Latest Patents

Reed is associated with 1 patent, titled “Neural Volumetric Reconstruction for Coherent Synthetic Aperture Sonar.” The invention describes a system for measuring underwater objects with high-resolution synthetic aperture sonar (SAS), which coherently combines data collected by a moving array to produce imagery.

The system receives measurement waveforms and optimizes them for deconvolution through an iterative process. Its adaptable waveform-compression approach tunes performance using sparsity and smoothness parameters. It then applies pulse deconvolution and uses the resulting waveforms in an analysis-by-synthesis optimization process with an implicit neural representation. The stated aim is to produce higher-resolution imagery and improved volumetric reconstructions of underwater objects.
