Jyh-Ren Dent has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7940246
    Abstract: The invention discloses a screen control system including a panel, a magnetic member, at least three magnetic inductive (MI) sensors, and a processing unit. The magnetic member is used for indicating a specific position on the panel. Each of the MI sensors is located under the panel and used for sensing magnetic field of the magnetic member corresponding to the specific position. Afterward, each MI sensor will convert the sensed magnetic field into an output voltage correspondingly. The processing unit is coupled to each of the MI sensors and the panel. According to all of the output voltages, the processing unit will calculate a coordinate corresponding to the specific position. Accordingly, the screen control system is capable of displaying the specific position indicated by the magnetic member for the user.

  • Publication number: 20020181830
    Abstract: A method for forming an all-fiber, low-loss interleaver to obtain a predetermined optical channel spacing. The interleaver features at least one arm formed with and continuous between couplers of a Mach Zender type arrangement. The interleaver is formed by first analytically determining &Dgr;&thgr;, the difference in optical lengths between the two optical paths between the couplers. The difference is then fine-tuned by the application of heat and tension to a jacket-stripped segment of the continuous fiber arm as a DWDM signal is observed at the output of the interleaver.

  • Publication number: 20020181872
    Abstract: An optical interleaver. The interleaver is based upon the Mach Zender interferometer. At least one of the optical paths joining opposed couplers of the arrangement includes an optical image transfer element intermediate the ends of fibers associated with the couplers. In one embodiment, the optical image transfer element is a single imaging lens whereas, in another embodiment, the element consists of an aligned pair of collimating lenses. During fabrication, optical positioning stages support the optical image transfer element and fiber ends to permit ready adjustment of &Dgr;&THgr;, the optical path length difference between the arms of the interleaver, to assure predetermined optical channel spacing of an input DWDM signal.
