Patent number: 7215984Abstract: The present invention involves method and apparatus for analyzing measured signals that are modeled as containing primary and secondary portions. Coefficients relate the two signals according to a model defined in accordance with the present invention. In one embodiment, the present invention involves utilizing a transformation which evaluates a plurality of possible signal coefficients in order to find appropriate coefficients. Alternatively, the present invention involves using statistical functions or Fourier transform and windowing techniques to determine the coefficients relating to two measured signals. Use of this invention is described in particular detail with respect to blood oximetry measurements.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2004Date of Patent: May 8, 2007Assignee: Masimo CorporationInventors: Mohamed K.

Patent number: 7093206Abstract: A computer aided design (CAD) system. A template generation engine generates templates from interconnect configuration files. A field solver generates high frequency passive element relationships from the templates. A circuit builder generates circuit description files from device technology models and from high frequency passive element relationships. Parameterized circuit description models may be generated for large range of sensitivity analyses. A simulator simulates circuit responses for transmission line models from the circuit description files. Interconnect configuration files may be generated by a geometry and material definition module that receives process description data from a designer.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2003Date of Patent: August 15, 2006Assignee: International Business Machines Corp.Inventors: Minakshisundaran B. Anand, Matthew S. Angyal, Alina Deutsch, Ibrahim M. Elfadel, Gerard V. Kopcsay, Barry J. Rubin, Howard H. Smith
