Patent number: 10272343Abstract: One aspect of the disclosure relates to providing an online game for facilitating assumption of a player identity. The online game comprises a player account associated with the player. By facilitating assumption of a first player identity associated with a first player account, game support personnel and/or an administrator may be substituted for a player in the online game. The assumption of the first player identity may be accomplished through transmission and/or implementation of a private key stored on a client computing platform associated with the first player account, in order to facilitate a different client computing platform (e.g., associated with support personnel) to be authenticated to the first player account. This may allow the support personnel and/or an administrator to directly experience the player problems in the online game.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2018Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: Electronic Arts Inc.Inventors: Charles Bowman, Brian Brause

Publication number: 20160021923Abstract: A gelatinous or “gummy” confection is supplemented with low-DHA, low-chlorophyll, high-protein microalgal cells. Because the microalgal cell walls encapsulate the microalgal protein, the microalgal cells do not interfere with the setting process of the confection. The confection can be produced by combining gelatin or other gelling agent with sweetener, color, flavor, and intact high-protein microalgae. The microalgae can be obtained from heterotrophic cultivation of Chlorella protothecoides or other microalgal cells under nitrogen replete conditions with washing, pasteurization and drying to obtain microalgal flour with at least 50% microalgal protein by weight.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2015Publication date: January 28, 2016Inventors: Starla Paulsen, Beata Klamczynska, Ken Plasse, Charles Bowman

Patent number: 9025500Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and apparatus for maximizing the spectral efficiency of a communications spectrum by providing a means to transmit information continuously in both directions of a radio link on the same center frequency at any given time. One embodiment may be directed to a method of communicating in a point-to-point radio system. The method may include receiving a first signal at a first antenna of a radio head. The first signal may include a transmitted data signal and interfering signals. The method continues by determining a correction signal from a transmitter of the radio head and processing the first signal to remove the interfering signals using the correction signal, and sending a second signal using a second antenna. The first and second signals may be sent and received at substantially the same time.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2013Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignee: REMEC Broadband Wireless, LLCInventors: Charles Bowman, Behzad Moeenziai

Patent number: 8750792Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods, apparatuses, and systems for implementing a point-to-point radio architecture in which the isolation needed between the transmitter and receiver may be achieved through the use of separate antennas. One embodiment is directed at a radio head comprising a transmitter configured to operate at a first frequency, a receiver configured to operate at a second frequency, and a processor coupled to both the transmitter and the receiver. The transmitter is further coupled to a first antenna interface coupled to a first antenna configured to transmit signals at the first frequency. The receiver is further coupled to a second antenna interface coupled to a second antenna configured to receive signals at the second frequency.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: June 10, 2014Assignee: Remec Broadband Wireless, LLCInventors: Charles Bowman, Behzad Moeenziai
