Abstract: Hybrid analog-digital processors and related methods are described. A hybrid analog-digital processor or related method may carry out an algorithm for efficiently performing a Fourier Transform with lower power consumption and higher speed compared with fully-digital processors. A hybrid analog-digital processor or related method may use a digital processor to perform some portions of a Fourier Transform, such as sizing signals for input into an analog accelerator (such as a photonic accelerator). The analog accelerator may be configured to perform some portions of the Fourier Transform by performing matrix-vector multiplication on the sized signals using light. Further efficiency may be provided by in some environments by batching signals that are input into the analog accelerator into 2D arrays, or by performing matrix-vector multiplication using a submatrix of a full Fourier Transform matrix.

Abstract: A photonic processor uses light signals and a residue number system (RNS) to perform calculations. The processor sums two or more values by shifting the phase of a light signal with phase shifters and reading out the summed phase with a coherent detector. Because phase winds back every 2? radians, the photonic processor performs addition modulo 2?. A photonic processor may use the summation of phases to perform dot products and correct erroneous residues. A photonic processor may use the RNS in combination with a positional number system (PNS) to extend the numerical range of the photonic processor, which may be used to accelerate homomorphic encryption (HE)-based deep learning.

Abstract: The disclosure refers to a static mixer for use in an exhaust system for a combustion engine and for the mixing of an additive injected into an exhaust system. The mixer consists of a tubular housing encircling a central axis X. The housing comprises an input opening at the end in the direction of central axis X and at the opposite end an outlet opening, whereby the inlet opening is used for the supply of additive injected into the exhaust system. The housing is closed in the section of the inlet opening and in the section of the outlet opening in circumferential direction around the central axis X. The static mixer is designed to generate little counterpressure, to guarantee rapid and complete reducing agent preparation and at the same time to be resistant to production tolerances.
