Patent number: 11784850Abstract: A communication network includes nodes configured into a wireless ring network operating at one or more millimeter-wave frequencies. At least one of the nodes is configured to send and receive millimeter-wave wireless signals through an obstruction. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the network, one or more of the nodes may include small, phased-array antennas and transceivers, configured with radio electronics to mitigate the path loss through certain obstructions, such as walls, floors, ceilings, and other barriers within buildings, as well as attenuation from free-space path-loss, including moisture in air (humidity). The network may include multiple pairs of nodes to form one or more wireless communication paths through various obstructions. This may allow a high-speed, wireless, multi-ring network to be established, for example, within a structure, such as a building, without requiring additional cabling or wiring.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2018Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: AIRVINE SCIENTIFIC, INC.Inventors: Hatch Graham, III, Harry William Peterson

Patent number: 10560178Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for wireless millimeter-wave communications are disclosed. An apparatus is configured to rotate about an axis so as to improve transfer of wireless signals. The apparatus includes a support having a first side and a second side. A first phased array antenna is mounted to the support facing away from the first side. A second phased array antenna mounted to the support facing away from the second side. The apparatus further includes a means for rotating the support, such as a hinge or a pivot. By rotating the support in the field, the coverage of the wireless signals to/from at least one of the phased array antennas may be improved.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2018Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: AIRVINE SCIENTIFIC, INC.Inventors: Hatch Graham, III, Harry William Peterson

Patent number: 10454562Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods that allow millimeter-wave communication signals to pass efficiently and reliably through obstructions are disclosed. An apparatus includes a first wireless transceiver and a first phased array antenna coupled to the first wireless transceiver. A second phased array antenna is also coupled to the first wireless transceiver. The apparatus additionally includes a second wireless transceiver and a third phased array antenna coupled to the second wireless transceiver. The third phased array antenna is adapted to emit a third millimeter wave beam through an obstruction. A fourth phased array antenna is also coupled to the second wireless transceiver. The fourth phased array antenna is adapted to receive a fourth millimeter wave beam through the obstruction. A controller is included in the apparatus for managing data transfer between the first wireless transceiver and the second wireless transceiver so that a fully duplexed communication path is available between the antennas.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2018Date of Patent: October 22, 2019Assignee: AirVine Scientific, Inc.Inventors: Hatch Graham, III, Harry William Peterson, Karl Douglas Triebes

Patent number: 5142487Abstract: A numerically controlled oscillator includes a phase accumulator which generates sequences of phase word phase signals. A demultiplexer 104 directs the odd and even numbered phase angle words of the sequence to identical but independent lookup tables to generate corresponding waveform signals. The wave form signals at the output of each lookup table occur at one-half the frequency of the system clock. A multiplexer 108 interleaves the output signals from the lookup tables to provide a properly ordered sequence of waveform signals at the frequency of the system clock. The maximum system clock frequency can be approximately twice the maximum operating frequency of each lookup table.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 1991Date of Patent: August 25, 1992Inventor: Hatch Graham, III

Patent number: 4786904Abstract: An electronically programmable gate array comprises a plurality of rows of logic cells with each cell having a plurality of inputs, at least one output, and a plurality of electronically programmable voltage levels for configuring the cell. A plurality of sets of interconnect lines are formed in the array with one set of interconnect lines provided between adjacent rows of logic cells with electronically programmable contacts connecting inputs and an output of each cell in a row of cells with two adjacent sets of interconnect lines. Each row of logic cells preferably includes alternating three-input cells and two-input cells.
