Patent number: 11994901Abstract: A clock data recovery circuit includes a deglitch filter circuit and a timer circuit. The deglitch filter circuit is configured to remove pulses of less than a particular duration from a data signal to produce a deglitched data signal. The timer circuit is coupled to the deglitch filter, and is configured to compare a duration of a pulse of the deglitched data signal to a threshold duration, and identify the pulse as representing a logic one based on the duration of the pulse exceeding the threshold duration.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2022Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATEDInventors: Michael Ryan Hanschke, Pankaj Pandey, Joseph Pham, David Wayne Evans

Patent number: 11961172Abstract: A system and method for object monitoring, detection, and segmentation in electro-optical (EO) satellite imagery data comprising an image processing engine configured to prepare EO data for analysis by an inference engine which utilizes one or more trained models to perform object detection or image segmentation. The workflow begins with ingesting satellite data, followed by de-hazing to remove atmospheric interference. Image enhancement improves resolution and geo-registration ensures precise spatial alignment. The processed image is then fed into a machine learning-based object detection or image segmentation network, trained to identify specific objects of interest. This integrated approach leverages advanced technologies to extract actionable insights from satellite data, enabling efficient and precise object monitoring, detection, and segmentation.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2023Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: ROYCE GEOSPATIAL CONSULTANTS, INC.Inventors: Adam Estrada, Andrew Ryan, Casey Backes, Joseph Bader, Kenneth Joyce, Jason Dodge, Dave Rabrun

Patent number: 11909646Abstract: A congested network link is identified. Applications that are contributing to the congestion are also identified. The contribution of each of the identified applications to the congestion is then determined in order to determine whether the application's usage of the network should be throttled. A control signal is generated in order to indicate to the application that it is to perform an application-specific throttling operation to reduce the network bandwidth consumed by the application. If the application-specific throttling does not sufficiently reduce network congestion, a more aggressive throttling operation is performed.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Bradley David Rutkowski, Todd Carlyle Luttinen, Sachin Ramakanth Kulkarni, Vijay Rajesh Kumar, Joseph Ryan Warren
