Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Protection switching mechanism." This invention describes a system and method for protection switching in a transmission network. The protection switching mechanism includes a multiplexer, a transmission path for each output of the multiplexer, and a remote circuit. The multiplexer receives an input signal and outputs multiple signals. Each transmission path is designed to receive an associated output signal from the multiplexer. Additionally, the system incorporates redundant transmission paths, allowing signals directed to a faulty path to be redirected to a redundant one. The remote circuit facilitates the selective switching of a redundant path for a faulty one at a subscriber.
Another significant patent by Lu is "Fault characterization using information indicative of echo." This invention analyzes faults associated with a communication medium by correlating two sets of information indicative of echo. The fault is characterized based on the correlation between these two sets of information, which can include echo canceller coefficients generated by an echo canceller connected to the communication medium.
