Latest Patents

One of Nadeau's latest patents is titled "Coherent summation in wireless sensor platforms." This invention describes techniques for improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a wireless sensor platform. The device that interrogates a wireless sensor node, known as an interrogator, is configured to determine the quantity to be measured by extracting information from multiple echoes produced in response to various interrogation pulses. By keeping only portions of the received signal that exhibit unique characteristics specific to the wireless sensor node, the SNR can be improved. Furthermore, the echoes can be summed together coherently, resulting in an echo with an amplitude greater than that of each individual received echo.

Another significant patent is "Rotational transition based clock, rotational spectroscopy cell, and method of making same." This invention includes a millimeter wave atomic clock apparatus and a chip-scale vapor cell. The fabrication method involves providing a low-pressure dipolar molecule gas in a sealed cavity with a conductive interior surface that forms a waveguide. Non-conductive apertures allow electromagnetic entrance to and exit from the
