Patents by Inventor Feihua Zhang

Feihua Zhang has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10911270
    Abstract: Described are systems and methods take advantage of properties of sinc filters that remove frequency components at specific integer multiples of a noise frequency. In various embodiments, sampling of multi-channel systems at sufficiently high rates allows for removal of unwanted signals and harmonics from multi-sample sequences. Advantageously, a multi-sample sequence scheduling scheme eliminates the need for noise filtering one channel at a time at each channel's own sampling rate using a separate filter.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: February 2, 2021

  • Publication number: 20150301638
    Abstract: System and method for substantially reducing an involvement of an applications processor in receiving data from a touchscreen display. In one aspect, the system includes a controller may be configured in an autonomous mode where it automatically measures the touchscreen display based configuration information received from the applications processor, determines notable events based on the measurement data, stores data and event identifiers related to the notable events in a memory, and sends a notification to the applications processor when event data is available In another aspect, the system includes a controller that filters user interactions events and transmits data related to only notable events to the applications processor. Because of the autonomous and event filtering operations of the touchscreen controller, there are substantially less communications between the controller and the applications processor. This improves the speed and efficiency of the applications processor.
