Title: Innovations of Stephane Kirmser
Introduction
Stephane Kirmser is a notable inventor based in Munich, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of digital signal processing and semiconductor testing. With a total of 3 patents to his name, Kirmser's work has had a substantial impact on technology.
Latest Patents
Kirmser's latest patents include a measuring device and method for measuring relative phase shifts of digital signals. This invention involves receiving M periods of the test signal and the reference signal, both of which are in each case Tlong. The test signal is sampled with N sampled values at a sampling frequency of f=1/T. The relationship N*T=M*T is maintained, where N is greater than M. The sampled values are progressively numbered by n, ranging from 0 to N-1. These values exhibit a defined relative phase shift concerning the reference signal. The phase shift T is calculated using a constant K, with Idx(i) corresponding to the number n, which can either be the first sampled value after a test signal zero crossing during the reference signal's i-period or the last sampled value before a test signal zero crossing during the reference signal's i-period. The invention focuses on either rising or falling zero crossings.
Another significant patent is a test apparatus for digitized test responses, which includes a generator and a signal extractor. The generator employs direct digital synthesis to create a set of n digital reference signals that are orthogonal to one another, where n is a natural number greater than 1. The signal extractor features a test input and reference inputs. The test input receives a digitized test response, while the reference inputs connect to the reference signals generated by the generator. The signal extractor computes scalar products from each reference signal and the test response, using these products to determine whether a combination of reference signals is present in the test response.
