Patent number: 11978961Abstract: An antenna array may include a plurality of printed circuit boards (PCBs) oriented in a stacked arrangement, parallel to and spaced apart from one another. Each of the PCBs may include a linear array of antenna elements, which cooperate with the linear arrays of antenna elements on other PCBs to form a two-dimensional array of antenna elements. The PCBs may be supported at one end by a common backplate in a cantilevered manner, with the linear arrays of antenna elements located near the free end of the PCBs. The PCBs may include a thicker portion and a thinner portion, and the thinner portion may include a heat sink or other thermal dissipation structure.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2022Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: Taoglas Group Holdings LimitedInventors: Jeffrey Keith Shamblin, Vladimir Furlan, Patrick Carl Frank

Patent number: 10434252Abstract: A flow rate sensor is provided in a wireless, leadless package. The flow rate sensor includes a MEMs sensor coupled to an ASIC and an antenna. The flow rate sensor is powered by radiation received from a control module adjacent the flow rate sensor. The flow rate sensor is placed within a fluid and monitors the flow rate of the fluid. The control module is not in the fluid and receives flow rate data from the flow rate sensor.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2015Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: STMicroelectronics, Inc.Inventors: Nicholas Trombly, Patrick Furlan

Patent number: 9220457Abstract: A device for correlating trend data with respect to a patient's weight and lower extremity displacement can identify conditions indicative of congestive heart failure. An imaging mechanism is operable to measure lower extremity displacement over a period of time. An over-time trend analysis of both the patient's weight and the lower extremity displacement measurements is performed to determine whether over a particular sample period an increase in a patient's lower extremity displacement can be correlated with an increase in the patient's weight. When such a correlation does not exist, an alert can be issued of conditions indicative of congestive heart failure.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2014Date of Patent: December 29, 2015Assignee: STMicroelectronics, Inc.Inventor: Patrick Furlan

Patent number: 8926522Abstract: A device for correlating trend data with respect to a patient's weight ankle displacement can identify conditions indicative of congestive heart failure. A weight scale or similar device coupled with imaging mechanism operable to measure ankle displacement collects a plurality of measurements over a period of time. Over time trend analysis of both the patient's weight and the ankle displacement measurements can be obtained and compared to identify whether over a particular sample period an increase in a patient's ankle displacement is or is not correlated with an increase in the patient's weight. When an increase in ankle displacement is identified as not correlating to a corresponding change in the patient's weight an alert can be issued of conditions indicative of congestive heart failure.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2011Date of Patent: January 6, 2015Assignee: STMicroelectronics, Inc.Inventor: Patrick Furlan
