Patent number: 8503940Abstract: A method for interference suppression, including receiving a sample of an aggressor communication signal from a sensor embedded in a flex circuit, emulating interference that the aggressor communication signal imposes on a victim communication signal, and suppressing the imposed interference in response to applying the emulated interference to the victim communication signal. In other aspects, the flex circuit comprises a plurality of traces running substantially parallel to one another along a surface of the flex circuit, and the sensor comprises one of the plurality of traces and one of a plurality of traces of another flex circuit. In still other aspects, the flex circuit comprises a plurality of traces running substantially parallel to one another and the sensor comprises a trace of the flex circuit running perpendicular to the plurality of traces running substantially parallel to one another.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2012Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Quellan, Inc.Inventors: Edward Gebara, Andrew Joo Kim, Joy Laskar, Anthony Stelliga, Emmanouil M.

Patent number: 8005430Abstract: Signals propagating on an aggressor communication channel can cause interference in a victim communication channel. A sensor coupled to the aggressor channel can obtain a sample of the aggressor signal. The sensor can be integrated with or embedded in a system, such as a flex circuit or a circuit board, that comprises the aggressor channel. The sensor can comprise a dedicated conductor or circuit trace that is near an aggressor conductor, a victim conductor, or an EM field associated with the interference. An interference compensation circuit can receive the sample from the sensor. The interference compensation circuit can have at least two operational modes of operation. In the first mode, the circuit can actively generate or output a compensation signal that cancels, corrects, or suppresses the interference. The second mode can be a standby, idle, power-saving, passive, or sleep mode.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2009Date of Patent: August 23, 2011Assignee: Quellan Inc.Inventors: Edward Gebara, Andrew Joo Kim, Joy Laskar, Anthony Stelliga, Emmanouil M.

Patent number: 5708659Abstract: The port in a packet network switching system that a packet should be associated with is determined by retrieving packet address information for a packet that is to be transmitted. A predetermined number of bits from the packet address information is selected to use a hash key, which is used to compute a table address. The contents of the table at that address are compared with the packet address information. If it matches, the packet is transmitted over the port associated with that particular destination address. If it does not match, the table address is incremented by one, and the contents of the new table location identified by the incremented address are compared with the packet address information. A high speed digital video network apparatus which utilizes the hashing function is implemented on a single integrated circuit chip, and includes a network protocol processing system interconnection, compression/decompression circuits, and encoder/decoder circuits.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 1995Date of Patent: January 13, 1998Assignee: LSI Logic CorporationInventors: Michael D.
