Patents by Inventor Lothar Winkler

Lothar Winkler has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9042429
    Abstract: A radio receiver apparatus includes a serving cell detector configured to generate a detected serving cell signal based on a serving cell detector input signal. The radio receiver apparatus further includes a first interfering cell detector configured to generate a detected first interfering cell signal based on a first interfering cell detector input signal and a first interfering cell synthesizer configured to generate synthesized first interfering cell signal based on the detected first interfering cell signal. A serving cell interference removing unit is configured to remove the synthesized first interfering cell signal from a serving cell signal to generate the serving cell detector input signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8677150
    Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus for managing a plurality of cipher processor units. A cipher module may receive a cipher instruction indicating a cipher algorithm to be used. The cipher module may identify a cipher processing unit of the plurality of cipher processing units associated with the cipher algorithm. The cipher module may execute the cipher instruction using the cipher processing unit and the common register array. The cipher module may store a state of a common register array to be used by the cipher processing unit of the plurality of cipher processing units.

  • Patent number: 8340170
    Abstract: A receiver for receiving a data signal having a channel profile may include an equalizer, to which the data signal is feedable, the equalizer having a plurality of filters and a switching device coupled to the filters, a selection device, which is disposed such that it determines a first number and a second number in dependence on the channel profile, and the switching device is disposed such that it connects a number of linear filters corresponding to the first number to form a first overall filter and connects a number of linear filters corresponding to the second number to form a second overall filter.
