Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a "Method and system for exchanging real-time data in a ring network." This invention pertains to communication among stations interconnected by a ring of physical links, operating at a base symbol rate. Each station has an upstream and a downstream link and relays messages originating from the upstream link to its downstream link. Logical links are provided on the ring, each associated with a symbol rate divisor and a link index. Each station transmits messages composed of strings of symbols on a selected logical link by transmitting the message on its downstream link at the base symbol rate divided by the symbol rate divisor associated with the selected logical link, and offset by the link index of the selected logical link. Additionally, a station generates a first synchronizing sequence on its downstream link at the base symbol rate divided by the symbol rate divisor associated with a first logical link not used for data, and offset by the link index of the first logical link, and a second synchronizing sequence at the base symbol rate divided by the symbol rate divisor associated with a second logical link not used for data, and offset by the link index of the second logical link.

Another significant patent is the "System and method for balancing energy storage devices." This system is designed for balancing a series connection of energy storage devices. It includes an intermediate storage element coupled between a pair of sections of one or a number of adjacent energy storage devices of a series connection. The sections each have a more positive terminal (A) at one end and a more negative terminal (B) at its other end. A switching device is used for switching sequentially between coupling terminals (A) to each other via the intermediate storage element and coupling terminals (B) to each other via the intermediate storage element, wherein the sections are non-adjacent. A method for balancing a series connection between energy storage devices is also disclosed.
