Title: Hans N. Toussaint and Optical Signal Receiver Innovation.
Introduction
Hans N. Toussaint is an inventor associated with Munich, Germany, and Siemens Aktiengesellschaft. His patent work includes a receiver designed to improve the processing of optical digital signals through dark-current compensation.
Latest Patents
Toussaint is credited with 1 patent: “Receiver for Optical Digital Signals with Dark Current Compensation.” The invention describes a receiver with a transimpedance amplifier connected to an illuminated photodiode and a comparator. An operational amplifier uses a separate, unilluminated photodiode to account for dark current, while a voltage divider derives the comparator’s reference voltage from the operational amplifier’s output. This arrangement is intended to support more reliable signal detection.
