  • System and method for low-power close-proximity communications and energy transfer using a miniature multi-purpose antenna
    Patent number: 10461396
    Abstract: A system for providing information to a magnetic card reader. The system comprises an antenna (in one embodiment comprising a multi-purpose antenna or an antenna module) and a microprocessor for applying a differential signal to the antenna. The differential signal represents data stored in a memory segment of the microprocessor or in a memory connected to the microprocessor. The antenna transmits an alternating magnetic field representing the information the alternating magnetic field is responsive to the differential signal and received by the magnetic card reader.

  • Antenna With Microprocessor Control and Drive
    Publication number: 20190020095
    Abstract: An antenna for transmitting electromagnetic radiation. The antenna comprises a core further comprising at least one layer of contiguous core material and windings disposed on the core forming a plurality or winding segments. The windings define gaps between each winding segment. A microprocessor supplies current to the antenna in the form of a bit stream. The microprocessor controlling the current to control parameters of the bit stream, the parameters further comprising bit amplitude, bit width, bit rate, timing, delays, bit direction, bit order, and frequency. A material of the core comprises an amorphous or annealed material, further comprising metal or alloys, comprising one or more of nickel or nano-crystalline or nano-materials.

  • Accordion antenna structure
    Patent number: 10074888
    Abstract: An antenna for transmitting electromagnetic radiation. The antenna comprises a core further comprising at least one layer of contiguous core material and windings disposed on the core forming a plurality or winding segments. The windings define gaps between each winding segment, wherein parameters of the gaps and parameters of the windings are selected to generate a balanced magnetic field. A material of the core comprises an amorphous or annealed material, further comprising metal or alloys, comprising one or more of nickel or nano-crystalline or nano-materials.
