Title: Innovations of Juan C Juarez
Introduction
Juan C Juarez is a notable inventor based in Windsor Mill, MD (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of optical communications, holding a total of 7 patents. His work focuses on enhancing data transmission through innovative technologies.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is the "Automatic repeat request network transport system for turbulent free-space optical communications links." This invention features a free-space optical (FSO) retransmission device that includes a memory bank partitioned into a source buffer indexed by segment identifications (IDs). It also has an interface that communicates with an optical terminal and an Ethernet network, along with a programmable circuit designed to execute data processing operations. These operations involve receiving data from the Ethernet network, generating an FSO segment, and transmitting an outgoing FSO frame to the optical terminal. The outgoing FSO segment is stored in the source buffer until an acknowledgment is received in an inbound FSO frame from the optical terminal.
Another significant patent is the "Free-space optical terminal." This device comprises an optical fiber bundle with at least one optical data fiber and three optical tracking fibers. It includes a mirror package that directs an incoming optical beam to the optical fiber bundle, along with at least three detectors that convert portions of the incoming optical beam into electrical tracking signals. A controller processes these signals to generate feedback control for the mirror package's position.
