Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Noise riding threshold control with immunity to signals with high pulse repetition frequencies and high duty cycles." This invention discloses a system and method for a radar receiver, such as a wideband crystal video early warning receiver, to automatically detect the noise level of the radar receiver while maintaining immunity to high pulse repetition frequencies and high duty cycle signals. The noise riding threshold circuit utilizes high-frequency components of the noise and, to the attenuated extent present, high-frequency components of the video signal to produce the noise riding threshold voltage. An amplifier gain control allows for adjusting the noise-riding threshold to a fixed relative level. In a preferred embodiment, this control utilizes current feedback amplifiers for wide bandwidth, high gain video amplifiers.
Another significant patent is the "Multi-function radio frequency signal warning system." This system detects various types of RF signals, such as radar signals, across different RF bands and provides indications of the type of radar signal and the RF band. It is capable of detecting pulsed radar signals with different pulse repetition frequency (PRF) ranges, high duty cycle radar signals, and continuous wave radar signals. The system includes a receiver processor that detects and video amplifies the radar signals with baseline correction, processing them to determine the type of radar signal, including the RF band and PRF range. The receiver processor generates audio and visual control signals, transmitting them to remote units that provide audible alarms and visual indicators.
