  • Active noise canceling system for mechanically cooled germanium radiation detectors
    Patent number: 8704186
    Abstract: A microphonics noise cancellation system and method for improving the energy resolution for mechanically cooled high-purity Germanium (HPGe) detector systems. A classical adaptive noise canceling digital processing system using an adaptive predictor is used in an MCA to attenuate the microphonics noise source making the system more deployable.
    Type: Grant
