Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Digital frequency difference estimator for signals received from different antennas." This invention provides a device and method for estimating the frequency difference between antennas that have asynchronized local oscillator references. The frequency meter is designed to connect with radio frequency signals from two antennas and outputs a measured frequency difference between the baseband filtered signals. The frequency meter includes a phase meter, a quadrant transition, and a frequency meter counter, which work together to establish a measure of the frequency difference between the two radio frequency signals.
Another notable patent is "Signal processing apparatus and methods." This invention offers a signal processing apparatus and method that allows for the dynamic selection of a subset of subcarriers from a received frequency division multiplex (FDM). It includes at least two first phase aligners, a digital cross-connect, and at least two second phase aligners, all configured to provide automatic gain control and coherent combining of the pairs. This innovation enhances the efficiency of signal processing in communication systems.
