  • System and method for an intelligent radio frequency receiver
    Patent number: 8620243
    Abstract: A method a system for receiving signals from plural frequency bands and plural communication protocols. An interchangeable radio frequency (“RF”) front end may receive RF signals from plural frequency bands and plural communication protocols. Intermediate frequency (“IF”) circuitry may produce one or more common IF signals from the received RF signals. A common digital back end may then receive digitized versions of the IF signals, modify IF signal bandwidth as a function of the plural communication protocols, and process plural received signals without knowledge of the underlying communication protocols.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and system for storing trace events in a database table
    Patent number: 8413121
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method for storing trace events in a database table includes reading a group of parameters from the table. The group of parameters includes parameters indicative of the maximum number of records, the most recently added record, and the total number of records in the table. The method further includes receiving a trace event. The method also includes storing the trace event as a record in the table based on the group of parameters. The method further includes updating the group of parameters before receiving the next trace event.
