Patents by Inventor Gudmundur Bogason

Gudmundur Bogason 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: 9282406
    Abstract: A digital microphone, the microphone includes a microelectromechanical (MEMS) component and a frequency boost component. The MEMS component is configured to convert. sound into an electrical signal. The frequency boost component is configured to receive the electrical signal and ultrasonically boost the electrical signal to create a frequency response. The frequency response does not substantially affect an audio band of interest of the microphone.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20130058495
    Abstract: An electronic circuit, a digital audio component, an interface system and a method for streaming PDM data from or to at least one audio element are provided. The electronic circuit comprises a VDD connection for receiving a VDD potential, a GND connection for receiving a potential numerically lower than said VDD potential, a CLK connection for receiving a clock signal having a high and a low part, a DATA connection for communicating said PDM data to or from a host and/or another such electronic circuit, an L/R connection for receiving a DC potential designating whether to communicate substantially synchronously with said high part or said low part of said clock signal. The electronic circuit further comprises an I/O circuit configured for communicating control data via said L/R connection.

  • Patent number: 7340068
    Abstract: A device for detecting the presence of wind noise in an array of microphones including two or more separate sound inlet openings, and a sound to electrical converting element or microphone in relation to each sound inlet opening. The microphones each generate time dependent signals which are fed to a signal processing device that provides one or more output signals. The signal processing device has means for generating a time dependent cross correlation function between a first and a second microphone signal, and means for generating a signal corresponding to a time dependent auto correlation function of either the first or the second of the microphone signals.

  • Patent number: 6975739
    Abstract: A hearing aid includes a signal path having an input transducer, a processor and an output transducer, the hearing aid further including a radio frequency receiver, where the receiver includes a single crystal oscillator providing a single oscillator frequency and where means are provided for generating a further number of receiving frequencies by transforming the oscillator frequency to the desired receiving frequencies. The hearing aid and the RF receiver may be separate or integrated. The invention further relates to a separate element comprising a RF receiver, the separate element being adapted for mounting on a hearing aid.
