Alain Vallauri has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Satellite (GPS) assisted clock apparatus, circuits, systems and processes for cellular terminals on asynchronous networks
    Patent number: 8805376
    Abstract: An electronic circuit for use with time of arrival signals from a network, including a position determination unit, a first clock, a second clock, and processing circuitry coupled to said first clock, said second clock, and said position determination unit. The processing circuitry is operable to project a relatively-accurate subsequent global time based on said first and second clocks and to then return said relatively-accurate subsequent global time to said position determination unit to facilitate a subsequent position determination by said position determination unit.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 8, 2012
    Date of Patent: August 12, 2014
    Assignee: Texas Instruments Incorporated
    Inventors: Joergen Boejer, Alain Vallauri, Ilyas Berk Guvelioglu
