  • Patent number: 10826633
    Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods that enable the delivery of rich digital content over terrestrial base frequency modulated broadcast systems. The digitally rich content may include, but not limited to live or recorded video, command and control information. Access to the content may be on a free, pay-per-use, pay-per-view, or pay-per-broadcast or multicast method.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 29, 2015
    Date of Patent: November 3, 2020
    Assignee: Nu Lightwave Logic LLC

  • Publication number: 20080112845
    Abstract: An air cleaning unit is provided. The air cleaning unit includes a housing having an air intake and an air outlet. Intermediate the air intake and air outlet is an air filtration medium. Also within the housing is at least one UV-C lamp. The air cleaning unit also includes an odor-reducing medium, such as a photocatalytic oxidation (“PCO”). filter. A method for filtering air using the air cleaning unit is also provided.

  • Patent number: 6828935
    Abstract: In a system according to the proposed technique (see figure), the signal received by each element of the array antenna would be subjected to downconversion, and spread-spectrum demodulation and correlation as necessary; this processing would be performed separately from, and simultaneously with, similar processing of signals received by the other antenna elements. For the GPS implementation, following downconversion to baseband, the signals would be digitized, and all subsequent processing would be digital. In the digital process, residual carriers would be removed and each signal would be correlated with a locally generated model pseudo random-noise code, all following normal GPS procedure. As part of this procedure, accumulated values would be added in software and the resulting signals would be phase-shifted in software by the amounts necessary to synthesize the desired antenna directional gain pattern of peaks and nulls.

  • Publication number: 20040061659
    Abstract: An AM radio antenna circuit having a ferrite bar loop antenna comprises a resonating structure forming a balanced antenna circuit, a varactor diode tuning structure presenting a controllable capacitance to said winding structure, a DC path including the winding structure coupled to the varactor constructed and arranged to deliver a tuning signal to the varactor, and means for connecting the antenna circuit to the input of an external detector integrated circuit.
