Publication number: 20180367927Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system and a method for a redundant real-time wireless receiver network. A Remote Digital Antenna Digital Receiver (“RDADR”) is coupled to multiple Remote Digital Antenna (“RDAs”). The RDADR and the multiple RDAs are coupled via a digital bus. The multiple RDAs attempt to receive one or more digital signals from a transmitter. If the one or more digital signals are received without an error by one of the multiple RDAs, the RDA that received the one or more error-free digital signals sends the digital signals to the RDADR using the digital bus. The redundant real-time wireless receiver network provides a reliable and fault tolerant system to deliver digital audio signals in real-time.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2017Publication date: December 20, 2018Inventors: Marcus Ryle, Guy Coker, James Purcell

System and method for real-time wireless transmission of digital audio at multiple radio frequencies
Patent number: 9203533Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for the real-time wireless transmission of digital audio signals. A transmitter including a processor may be used to: generate a first digital data stream and a second digital data stream from a digital audio signal and transmit the first digital data stream at a first radio frequency and the second digital data stream at a second radio frequency. A receiver including a processor may be utilized to: receive the first and second digital data streams at the first and second radio frequencies, respectively, and generate the digital audio signal from the first and second digital data streams.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2008Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: Line 6, Inc.Inventors: Guy Coker, James Purcell, Marcus Ryle -
Publication number: 20130275143Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products for implementing a healthcare finance model are disclosed. A method according to the present invention may be embodied in a computer program product. The method may include determining an expected price of a medical scenario for each of a set of providers. A predetermined ranking algorithm may be applied to the providers. Such ranking algorithm may consider at least an expected price of the medical scenario for each of the plurality of providers. The providers may be organized into two or more provider groups based on results of the ranking algorithm. Additionally, a flat insurance payment for service of the medical scenario may be established for each provider group based on their rankings. Providers within each single provider group may have the same insurance payment for the medical scenario.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2011Publication date: October 17, 2013Applicant: Monocle Health Data, LLCInventors: Michael A.

Patent number: 8098830Abstract: A technique for reducing inherent noise in a real time digital audio wireless system. The technique allows for low power stereo analog to digital and digital to analog converters to be used in a battery operated real time digital audio wireless applications. The audio signal is sent to the left and right channels of an analog to digital converter with a preceding audio amp of different gain at the input to each channel. The signals are simultaneously digitized then combined to generate a new digital value resulting in noise reduction at lower amplitudes. This new data word is then transmitted via radio waves to a digital audio receiver. Once the data is received it is output simultaneously to a stereo digital to analog converter. The digital to analog conversion of both left and right channels is then summed using a resistor network and an audio amplifier. The audio amplifier output is then reduced to create further reduction of noise at all amplitudes.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2008Date of Patent: January 17, 2012Assignee: Line 6, Inc.Inventors: Guy Coker, James Purcell

Patent number: 7458630Abstract: A temporary vehicle cover includes a transparent cover and means for securing the transparent cover to the motor vehicle. The transparent is shaped to fit over a motor vehicle. The transparent cover includes a transparent cover top surface, a transparent cover bottom surface, a transparent cover first side, a transparent cover second side, a transparent cover rear end and a transparent cover securing end. Lengthwise perforations formed down substantially a middle of the transparent cover and separate the transparent cover first side from the transparent cover second side. The transparent cover first side is separated from the transparent cover second side to remove the temporary vehicle cover from a motor vehicle. A drawstring sewn into a hem of a perimeter of the temporary vehicle cover or an elastic loop may be used for the means for securing the transparent cover to the motor vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2006Date of Patent: December 2, 2008Inventors: Steven Marciano, Trevor Ricker, James Purcell

Publication number: 20060088794Abstract: A device for combusting liquid fuel includes a cylinder sealed at both ends by respective annular seals. The liquid fuel is vaporized and flows through a tube extending into a sealed space between the cylinder walls. The tube is removably sealed to an end of an air mixing barrel that extends into the cylinder. The air mixing barrel has a plurality of air intake holes and a plurality of gas spray holes through which the vaporized fuel/air mixture exits. The device also includes a turbulence ring that is rotatably adjustable about a second end of the air mixing barrel. The air mixing barrel also includes an orifice that increase a pressure in the orifice to decrease carbon monoxide emissions.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2004Publication date: April 27, 2006Inventor: James Purcell
