Patent number: 10574277Abstract: The present invention teaches a system and method for improved signal recovery for range and coverage extension in a heterogeneous cooperative network of digital chaos transmissions with OFDM component signal transmission. The invention improves upon the state of art in side channel information from the transmit side containing information on the clipped amplitude. In-band transmission of the side information is achieved by exploiting the sparsity of the resulting clip amplitude position with improved levels of compression over the prior art using Gabor Transform Multiple Symbol Encoding transmitter. The information rate of the clipped amplitude is sub-Nyquist relative to the original OFDM component signal transmission, which allows very low power spreading by a cooperative digital chaos sequences at a transmit side and recovery of the clipped amplitude at a receive side. Further, an improved noise resistance side channel performance is achieved by decoding Gabor Transform symbols for symbol recovery.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2017Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Inventors: John David Terry, Anthony Reid

Patent number: 10050817Abstract: A method and system uses a constrained set of indexed samples to identify a next generation population of samples that exhibits a more desirable signal characteristic such as lower PAPR, out-of-band emission and error vector magnitude. The invention generates an intermediate set of indexed samples which are subjected to a fitness function and next generation calculations to produce next generation indexes for the next population of samples. The next generation indexes population of samples is further constrained over initial indexes for generating a more desirable signal characteristic. In dynamic spectrum access networks having OFDM components, the interference between collections of overlay and underlay signals is adaptively controlled based on the composite PAPR. In an example, the total out-of-band interference for the collection of overlay and underlay signals for all samples of the population are reduced.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2016Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Inventor: John David Terry

Patent number: 9966991Abstract: The present invention teaches a system and method for secure network access and group membership in a cooperative network of digital chaos transmissions. The invention involves sensing generated digital chaos sequences as spreading sequences at a transmit side and determining the availability of open channels at a receive side. Further, a broadcast “request to join” frame from a node on an open channel is transmitted to network manager or coordinator. A network manager or coordinator sends an association/authentication packet, comprised of the reserved digital chaos associated to the unique device id, in response to the “request to join” frame from a node with a valid identification.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2016Date of Patent: May 8, 2018Inventor: John David Terry

The invention involves sensing generated digital chaos sequences as spreading sequences at a transmit side and determining the availability of open channels at a receive side. Further, a broadcast request to change channel at the receive side is cooperatively forwarded to group members based on their group member and pool of channel assignments.
