Title: Innovations of Yun-Lung Chou
Introduction
Yun-Lung Chou is a prominent inventor based in Hsinchu, Taiwan. He has made significant contributions to the field of communications technology, holding a total of 6 patents. His work focuses on improving network efficiency and optical communication systems.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Methods for allocating transmission bandwidths of a network." This method is designed for a network that includes an office terminal and peripheral terminals. The peripheral terminals communicate with the office terminal using time division multiplexing during a sequence of transmitting cycles. The method involves receiving requested bandwidths from uploading messages sent by the peripheral terminals, arranging an uploading order based on these messages, and adjusting the order according to the size of the requested bandwidth. This approach ensures fairer transmission bandwidth allocation and reduces delays, effectively improving the average delay experienced by users.
Another notable patent is the "Burst mode optical receiver and system and method therefor." This communications system features an optical receiver that converts optical signals into electrical signals. It includes a transimpedance amplifier for filtering these signals and a limiting amplifier for further processing. An automatic threshold control (ATC) is also integrated, providing a reference voltage for the limiting amplifier. The ATC consists of a common emitter circuit and an emitter follower circuit, which help determine logic high and low signals based on the reference voltage output.
