Abstract: An important component in digital circuits is a phase rotator, which permits precise time-shifting (or equivalently, phase rotation) of a clock signal within a clock period. A digital phase rotator can access multiple discrete values of phase under digital control. Such a device can have application in digital clock synchronization circuits, and can also be used for a digital phase modulator that encodes a digital signal. A digital phase rotator has been implemented in superconducting integrated circuit technology, using rapid single-flux-quantum logic (RSFQ). This circuit can exhibit positive or negative phase shifts of a multi-phase clock. Arbitrary precision can be obtained by cascading a plurality of phase rotator stages. Such a circuit forms a phase-modulator that is the core of a direct digital synthesizer that can operate at multi-gigahertz radio frequencies.

Abstract: Described is a cognitive blind source separator (CBSS). The CBSS includes a delay embedding module that receives a mixture signal (the mixture signal being a time-series of data points from one or more mixtures of source signals) and time-lags the signal to generate a delay embedded mixture signal. The delay embedded mixture signal is then linearly mapped into a reservoir to create a high-dimensional state-space representation of the mixture signal. The state-space representations are then linearly mapped to one or more output nodes in an output layer to generate pre-filtered signals. The pre-filtered signals are passed through a bank of adaptable finite impulse response (FIR) filters to generate separate source signals that collectively formed the mixture signal.
