Latest Patents
Jonathan holds a patent for a groundbreaking invention titled "Joint equalization and timing acquisition for RZ signals." This patent describes an apparatus and method for jointly equalizing a return to zero (RZ) signal while detecting timing errors. The invention utilizes values or indices from equalizer taps, including a set reference tap that remains fixed. A timing error detector is employed to identify timing errors based on group delay measurements derived from equalizer tap information. The adjustment circuitry modifies samples of the received RZ signal before their equalization to correct any timing errors. Methods for modifying the samples include adjusting the timing of the sampler or using intermediate, interpolated samples generated by a timing interpolation filter. Jonathan's innovative work in this area has resulted in 1 patent.
