Fumiya NAKATANI 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).

  • Publication number: 20220252710
    Abstract: A radar signal processing device is provided. The radar device may include processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to generate a processing signal based on a beat signal of a transmission signal and a reception signal, and generate a plurality of extracted beat signals by applying a plurality of window functions on the processing signal, and convert the plurality of extracted beat signals to amplitude data indicating a relationship between a distance and an amplitude, and integrate a plurality of the amplitude data into integrated data.

  • Publication number: 20220252692
    Abstract: A radar signal processing device includes: a processing circuitry configured to generate a processing signal based on a beat signal obtained from a transmitted signal and a received signal, generate a smoothed signal by filtering the processing signal using a smoothing filter in a time domain; and detect an interference signal included in the beat signal based on the processing signal and the smoothed signal.

  • Patent number: 11313945
    Abstract: A radar device includes a transmitter, a receiver and processing circuitry. The transmitter transmits a first pulse signal and a second pulse signal, a pulse width of the second pulse signal being wider than a pulse width of the first pulse signal. The receiver may receive a first reception signal including a reflection signal of the first pulse signal and a second reception signal including a reflection signal of the second pulse signal. The processing circuitry may be configured to compare, in a first section that is at least partly in a distance direction, a signal intensity of the first reception signal with a signal intensity of the second reception signal, and generate a display signal based on a result of the comparison.

  • Patent number: 10677912
    Abstract: A signal processing device and method to accurately detect a distress signal from a search and rescue transponder and reduce a calculation load for the detection. The device may include an instantaneous frequency change rate calculating module configured to calculate a change rate of an instantaneous frequency of a complex reception signal generated from a reception wave received by a wave receiver, a memory configured to store a value obtained based on a reference frequency sweeping speed that is a frequency sweeping speed of the distress signal, and a distress signal determining module configured to determine whether the distress signal is issued from the search and rescue transponder, based on a comparison result between the instantaneous frequency change rate calculated by the instantaneous frequency change rate calculating module and the value obtained based on the reference frequency sweeping speed stored in the memory.
