Publication number: 20240080007Abstract: A coupled resonator filter including a first parallel resonator including a first capacitance connected in parallel with a first inductance. The filter includes a second parallel resonator including a second capacitance connected in parallel with a second inductance and a third parallel resonator including a third capacitance connected in parallel with a third inductance. Magnetic coupling between the first inductance and the second inductance, between the second inductance and the third inductance, and between the first inductance the third inductance occurs in accordance with first, second and third coupling factors, respectively. A frequency response of the coupled resonator filter includes a notch when values of the first coupling factor, the second coupling factor and the third coupling factor satisfy predetermined conditions.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Ali FARD, Mats CARLSSON, Jan RAPP, David WESTBERG, Omid Esmaeilzadeh NAJARI

Publication number: 20210265047Abstract: A facility provisions a worker in a software system. The facility retrieves from an identity management system information about the worker. The facility determines, based upon the information retrieved from the identity management system, that a user profile should be created for the worker in a software system. The facility further determines, based upon the retrieved information, a set of user profile fields that should be populated for the worker in the software system. The facility causes a user profile to be created for the worker in the software system. For each of the determined set of user profile fields, the facility maps between the user profile field and a field among information maintained for the worker by the identity management system, and causes the determined field of the created user profile to be populated with the mapped field among information maintained for the worker by the identity management system.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2020Publication date: August 26, 2021Inventors: Datla Anjaneya Raju, Jan Rapp, Jose C. Galindo, Paul A. Cooke

Patent number: 7742751Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and device directed to a receive path for a node in a communication system such as a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system. In one aspect, the receive path includes a filter operable in multiple modes and configurable to have different bandwidths in the various modes of operation. For example, in one mode, the filter samples a DC component while configured to have a relatively wide bandwidth. As another example, the filter may be operated in another mode to hold the sampled DC component while the filter is configured to have a zero or close to zero bandwidth. As yet another example, the filter may be operated in still another mode to filter received signals and cancel the sampled DC offset from the received signals while configured to have a relatively narrow bandwidth. Additional embodiments are described and claimed.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2006Date of Patent: June 22, 2010Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Scott Chiu, Issy Kipnis, Jan Rapp, David Westberg

Patent number: 7612684Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a dual mode power amplifier is capable of operating in either linear mode such as class A operation, or a non-linear mode such as class F operation. The power amplifier may be utilized in an RFID interrogator. The power amplifier may be biased to operate in a linear mode if the power amplifier is operating in a higher linearity mode, or may be biased to operate in a non-linear mode if the power amplifier is operating in a higher efficiency, lower power mode. The power amplifier may comprise two or more amplifiers coupled in parallel. A current mirror circuit may turn on more amplifiers if the power amplifier is operating in a higher power mode, and may turn on fewer amplifiers if the power amplifier is operating a lower power mode.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2007Date of Patent: November 3, 2009Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Issy Kipnis, Daniel Bjork, Jan Rapp

Publication number: 20090003487Abstract: Mechanisms for reducing amplitude-modulated noise in a wireless transceiver are generally described. In one example, an apparatus includes a radio-frequency identification (RFID) transceiver, a digital-analog converter (DAC) coupled with the transceiver, a reconstruction filter coupled with the digital-analog converter, and hold logic associated with the reconstruction filter to enable the reconstruction filter to hold its output voltage.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2007Publication date: January 1, 2009Inventors: Scott Chiu, Marc Loyer, Thomas J. Barnes, Jan Rapp, Jimmy Carlsson

Publication number: 20070004355Abstract: Apparatus, system, and method for multi-class wireless receiver are described. The multi-class receiver includes a first down-converter coupled to an input port, a filter coupled to the first-down converter, and a second down-converter coupled to the filter. In a first mode, the filter is configured as a first filter and the second down-converter is disabled. In a second mode, the filter is configured as a second filter and the second down converter is enabled. The system includes a wireless module and a wireless transceiver in communication with the wireless module. The method includes receiving multi-class RF signals, converting at least a first class of RF signals in a first mode of operation, and converting at least a second class of RF signals in a second mode of operation with said multi-class receiver.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2005Publication date: January 4, 2007Inventors: Issy Kipnis, Scott Chiu, David Westberg, Jan Rapp, Jonas Johansson
