  • Patent number: 7353436
    Abstract: A system, method and computer software product are provided. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for generating and employing numerical sequences that may be used for synchronization codes. In one embodiment of the present invention, the derivation of numerical sequences, or codes is based on an encoding algorithm. These codes enable synchronization between communicating devices, and may also be used for channelization. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules that allow a reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the disclosure contained herein. This Abstract is submitted with the explicit understanding that it will not be used to interpret or to limit the scope or the meaning of the claims.

  • Patent number: 6836223
    Abstract: An ultra-wideband pulse modulation apparatus, system and method is provided. The pulse modulation method increases the available bandwidth in an ultra-wideband, or impulse radio communications system. A set of different pulse transmission, or emission rates are employed to represent different groups of binary digits. The modulation and pulse transmission method enables the simultaneous coexistence of the ultra-wideband pulses with conventional carrier-wave signals. This method may be used in wireless and wired communication networks such as CATV networks. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules that allow a reader to guickly ascertain the subject matter of the disclosure contained herein. This Abstract is submitted with the explicit understanding that it will not be used to interpret or to limit the scope or the meaning of the claims.

  • Patent number: 6782048
    Abstract: A method to increase the available bandwidth across a wired network is provided. The method includes transmitting an ultra-wideband signal across the wired network. One embodiment of the present invention may transmit a multiplicity of ultra-wideband signals through a community access television network. The present invention may transmit an ultra-wideband signal across an optical network, a cable television network, a community antenna television network, a community access television network, a hybrid fiber-coax network, an Internet service provider network, and a PSTN network.

  • Patent number: 6374816
    Abstract: An apparatus for combustion initiation in an internal combustion engine is provided. A capacitive spark plug boot uses the engine cylinder head as an outer capacitor member. The capacitive spark plug boot contains the inner capacitor member and an insulator. The insulator surrounds the inner capacitor member, with an outer surface of the insulator sized to engage a cylinder head cavity surrounding the spark plug. The capacitor stores electrical energy received from a power source, and delivers it to the spark plug upon formation of a spark.
