Patent number: 11750030Abstract: A wireless charging system is configured to charge one or more receiver devices simultaneously. The wireless charging system includes multiple coils that may be driven independently based on a feedback system with one or more feedback channels. Each coil is driven by a coil driving signal selected based on a set of target characteristics. A coil drive circuit receives an input of a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal and outputs the coil driving signal to a corresponding coil.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: AIRA, INC.Inventors: William Paul Abajian, Jules Marie Xavier Laffitte, John MacDonald, Viswajit Natarajan, Christopher William Sarli, Lixin Shi, Jake Lee Vander Ploeg, Xiaoping Zhu, Mark Huan Mekkittikul

Patent number: 11336116Abstract: A wireless charging system is configured to charge one or more receiver devices simultaneously. The wireless charging system includes multiple coils that may be driven independently based on a feedback system with one or more feedback channels. One of the feedback channels may be a voltage and/or current measurement of coil driving signals from the coils that are indicative of receiver device presences on the wireless charging system. A coil driving signal may be sampled and processed using discrete Fourier transform to determine amplitude and phase information of the signal.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2020Date of Patent: May 17, 2022Assignee: AIRA, INC.Inventors: William Paul Abajian, Jules Marie Xavier Laffitte, John MacDonald, Viswajit Natarajan, Lixin Shi, Jake Lee Vander Ploeg, Xiaoping Zhu

Patent number: 11336117Abstract: A wireless charging system is configured to charge one or more receiver devices simultaneously. The wireless charging system includes multiple coils that may be driven independently based on a feedback system with one or more feedback channels. One of the feedback channels may be demodulated communication signals from the one or more receiver devices. The demodulation may be performed by a communication demodulation circuit with configurable gain. The demodulated communication signals are processed for error correction at a bit level and a packet level, which improves accuracy despite presence of multiple receiver devices and noisy conditions.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2020Date of Patent: May 17, 2022Assignee: AIRA, INC.Inventors: William Paul Abajian, Jules Marie Xavier Laffitte, John MacDonald, Lixin Shi, Jake Lee Vander Ploeg, Xiaoping Zhu

Publication number: 20150200861Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus to control a web loading time in a network. A method of a network controller to control a web loading time of a terminal includes acquiring information regarding at least one terminal currently accessing a base station. The method also includes detecting a transmission control protocol (TCP) session to download a web content of the terminal. The method further includes among a main object and at least one embedded object included in the web content, adjusting a priority for a transmission of the main object. Accordingly, a loading time of a web content is decreased by increasing a transmission priority of a main object constituting the web content in a network congestion situation.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2015Publication date: July 16, 2015Inventors: Jake Lee, Young-Joong Mok, Jung-Shin Park, Antony Franklin

Patent number: 8705504Abstract: A method and apparatus, such as a pico service gateway, for reducing backhaul traffic in a broadband wireless access system are provided. The pico service gateway operatively receives an uplink packet including a contents request from a Mobile Station (MS). Upon receipt of the contents request, the pico service gateway determines whether the requested contents have been cached. If the pico service gateway determines that the contents have not been cached therein, the pico service gateway communicates with a corresponding server to receive the requested contents. Thereafter, the pico service gateway transmits the contents to the MS. Further, if the pico service gateway determines that the contents have not been cached, the pico service gateway caches the contents. In contrast, if the pico service gateway determines that the contents are cached therein, the pico service gateway transmits the contents corresponding to the requested contents.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2011Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Byoung-Chul Moon, Jake Lee, Sang-Heon Lee

Patent number: 6418936Abstract: A tobacco pipe (10) having a hollow stem (12) threaded to a manifold (20) on top of which a turret (30) is rotatably mounted. Turret (30) is of greater weight than that of manifold (20), so that any one of a plurality of turret magazines (33) remains stationary over a chamber (24) in the manifold (20) in their relative rotation, so that smoking tobacco in the aligned magazine (33) with such chamber (24) takes place through the hollow stem (12). A screen (28) seats in a recess 27 of a port (25) of manifold (20) at a sufficient distance from the turret's chamber (24), preventing scorching of screen (28) by a source of flame at/in chamber (24) in the aligned magazine (33).Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2000Date of Patent: July 16, 2002Assignee: Sandia Corp.Inventor: Jake Lee
