Title: Yasuhiko Endo: Innovator in Beam Forming and Underwater Detection Technologies
Introduction
Yasuhiko Endo is a notable inventor based in Kobe, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the fields of beam forming and underwater detection systems. With a total of 2 patents, his work showcases innovative solutions that enhance technology in these areas.
Latest Patents
One of Yasuhiko Endo's latest patents is a beam forming device. This invention relates to forming a uniform radiation beam and/or a reception beam. In radiation, the transducer is vibrated in a manner that determines the pressure of a sound wave produced from each point of the vibrating surface based on a weight function. This process effectively forms a radiation beam. In reception, electric signals are derived based on the sound energy received, with the amplitude level of the electric signal determined by a weight function. The derived signals are then combined to form a reception beam.
Another significant patent is an underwater detection system. This system includes a transmitting and receiving unit that radiates an ultrasonic wave pulse into the water within a narrow sector. It receives echo signals through multiple reception beams and rotates the unit by a predetermined angle to search another narrow sector after completing the search within the initial sector. This method allows for a comprehensive search of the water within a wide angular range.
