  • Publication number: 20250260469
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for adaptive beamforming and interference mitigation using a time synchronized scalable cohered on-array processing system (“system”). The system may be a phased array implementing a software-defined radio using multi-input-multi-output antenna elements. The system includes multiple subarray elements which are configured into a tiered array of scalable subarrays that performs intermediary collation, coherence, noise reduction, and adaptive beamforming operations through processor nodes disposed between tiers. The intermediary collation operations process discrete portions of node excitation data to enable the phased array to generate an adaptive beam profile that directs high-directionality beams toward desired targets while adaptively partitioning interference sources between subarray elements.

  • Publication number: 20240361419
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for time synchronization of a distributed sensor array system (“distributed system”). The distributed system includes multiple sensor nodes, which are time-synchronized using a combination of RF signal data and message-based time techniques across multiple communications mechanisms. Time synchronization is implemented both internally between a sensor node's components and over-the-air between different sensor nodes. The distributed system further employs multiple layers of standardized and custom synchronization protocols to build a scalable, potentially zero-hop, time transfer network. The time synchronization accuracies achieved by the time transfer network enable coherency in the distributed system.

  • Publication number: 20240340818
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for time synchronization of a distributed sensor array system (“distributed system”). The distributed system includes multiple sensor nodes which are time synchronized using status information of a sensor node (e.g., timestamp of an occurrence of an event such as receipt of a request for local timestamp, a receipt of a calibration signal). A timestamp of an occurrence of the event at a sensor node is determined for each of the sensor nodes and a time offset between a timestamp of an occurrence of the event at a reference node of the distributed system and the timestamp of the corresponding sensor node is determined. The distributed system synchronizes each of the sensor nodes based on the time offset of the corresponding sensor node to time align data signals received by the sensor nodes. The time aligned signals are cohered for further processing.

  • Patent number: 11811472
    Abstract: Systems and methods for improving power efficiency of electronic systems are disclosed. An intelligent voltage regulator module (VRM) can self-regulate the output power provided to one or more components of an electronic system. For example, output voltage to a component can be increased when more computational power is needed or lowered when appropriate. The intelligent VRM can regulate the output power, for instance, based on one or more of usage or activity of the component. In some cases, the intelligent VRM can independently regulate the output power without input from a host device or override one or more output power parameters. Adjustment of the output power can be performed using machine learning (ML).
