Patent number: 11973508Abstract: A system and method that measures the code non-linearity of a phase mixer (PMIX) during active operation of a clock and data recovery (CDR) circuitry. The PMIX circuitry generates a clock signal based on the PMIX codes. The PMIX circuitry receives a plurality of codes and based on the code value, adjusts the phase of the PMIX output clock signal. A number of times each of the plurality of PMIX codes occurs within a respective time period is determined. Non-linearity values are determined based on the number of times. The non-linearity values are stored in a memory.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Synopsys, Inc.Inventors: Ayal S. Shoval, John T. Stonick, Michael W. Lynch, Dino Anthony Toffolon

Patent number: 11962676Abstract: A system and method which compensates for phase mixer circuit non-linearities within a clock and data recovery (CDR) system during active operation. The CDR system includes compensation circuitry and phase accumulation circuitry. The compensation circuitry generates a first compensation signal based on a first compensation value. The phase accumulation circuitry receives the first compensation signal and a phase accumulator input update signal. The phase accumulation circuitry combines the first compensation signal with the phase accumulator input update signal to compensate for a first non-linearity within phase mixer (PMI) circuitry.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Synopsys, Inc.Inventors: Ayal S.

Patent number: 9520919Abstract: A system and method of communicating a signal is disclosed. An aircraft is moved so that an aircraft-based coil is within a selected volume defined by a ground-based coil. A current is modulated in one of the aircraft-based coil and the ground-based coil to generate a magnetic field in the volume. A current generated in the other of the aircraft-based coil and the ground-based coil in response to the generated magnetic field is measured to communicate the signal.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2014Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignee: SIMMONDS PRECISION PRODUCTS, INC.Inventors: Sanjay Bajekal, Michael Anthony Lynch

Patent number: 8654758Abstract: Synchronizing a wireless sensor includes receiving a first command at the wireless sensor, noting a first timestamp value indicating when the first reply is sent, responding to the first command with a first reply, receiving a second command at the wireless sensor that contains a second timestamp value indicating when the first reply was received and a third timestamp value indicating when the second command was sent to the wireless sensor, noting a fourth timestamp value indicating when the second command was received by the wireless sensor, and determining an offset at the wireless sensor using the first, second, third, and fourth timestamp values. The presence of the first timestamp value may be interpreted as a request to provide timestamp information for synchronization. An access point may communicate with the wireless sensor.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2011Date of Patent: February 18, 2014Assignee: Simmonds Precision Products, Inc.Inventors: Radoslaw Romuald Zakrzewski, Michael Anthony Lynch

Patent number: 8131420Abstract: A health and usage monitoring system (HUMS) and method for monitoring the health and/or usage of one or more components of a vehicle. In various embodiments, the present invention uses a plurality of wireless sensors configured, when activated by a vibration of the vehicle, to monitor one or more components of the vehicle and to communicate health and/or usage data of the one or more components of the vehicle to a data access point. The data access point may relay real-time health and/or usage data to an operator of the vehicle, or the health and/or usage data may accessed later. Such a system allows critical components of the vehicle to be monitored so as to reduce failures, and so that repairs to, or replacements of, the critical components of the vehicle may be planned, thus reducing unscheduled downtime.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2008Date of Patent: March 6, 2012Assignee: Simmonds Precision Products, Inc.Inventors: Michael Anthony Lynch, Robert Zeliff, Eric Robert Bechhoefer

Patent number: 7680510Abstract: A transceiver system for RF communications in a wireless network includes a transceiver having first and second receivers and a transmitter. The first receiver and transmitter are connected to first antenna section. The second receiver is switchable between connection to a second antenna section and connection to the first antenna section. In a dual diversity mode, the second receiver is connected to the second antenna section, and the two receivers are tuned to the same RF channel set. Thus, multi-path faded signals in the RF channel set are received at the two antenna sections. In a cross-connected mode, two of the transceivers are used together, with the second receiver in each being connected to the first antenna section. Each transceiver supports one antenna, and the receivers in each transceiver (as well as the transmitters) are respectively tuned to different RF channel sets. Thus, system capacity is doubled in conjunction with diversity reception.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2005Date of Patent: March 16, 2010Assignee: Alcatel-Lucent USA Inc.Inventors: Michael A.
