  • Patent number: 7894326
    Abstract: Systems and methods for efficiently conveying one or more broadband communication channels over a transmission medium. Communication is effected by transforming an incoming digital bit stream into a Time-and-Frequency-Bounded (TFB) information stream that includes a plurality of TFB packets. This transformation is accomplished through the use of a plurality of TFB basis functions. More particularly, digital bit streams carried on one or more incoming channels are in the form of binary “on” and “off” bits. These digital bits are converted into a plurality of TFB waveform components which together comprise a TFB packet. The conversion process maps each of respective incoming digital bits to a corresponding one of a group of TFB functions, such that a first group of n bits is mapped to a first TFB function, a second group is mapped to a second TFB function etc. in a cyclical fashion.

  • Patent number: 7042902
    Abstract: Systems and methods for efficiently conveying one or more broadband communication channels over a transmission medium. Communication is effected by transforming an incoming digital bit stream into a prime frequency information stream that includes a plurality of prime frequency components. This transformation can be accomplished through the use of a plurality of mathematical basis functions. The prime frequency information stream is then transmitted over the transmission medium. More particularly, digital bit streams carried on one or more incoming channels are in the form of binary “on” and “off” bits. These digital bits are converted into a plurality of prime frequency components which together comprise a prime frequency information stream. The conversion process maps each of respective incoming digital bits to a corresponding one of a group of orthogonal basis functions.

  • Patent number: 6898207
    Abstract: Systems and methods for efficiently conveying one or more communication channels over a transmission medium. Communication is effected by transforming an incoming digital bit stream into a Hermite-Gaussian information stream that includes a plurality of Hermite-Gaussian packets. This transformation is accomplished through the use of a plurality of Hermite-Gaussian basis functions. The Hermite-Gaussian information stream is then transmitted over the transmission medium. More particularly, digital bit streams carried on one or more incoming channels may be in the form of binary “on” and “off” bits. These digital bits are converted into a plurality of Hermite-Gaussian waveform components which together comprise a Hermite-Gaussian packet. The conversion process maps each of respective incoming digital bits to a corresponding one of a group of Hermite-Gaussian functions.

  • Patent number: 5301339
    Abstract: A communication system comprises a bus system and a number of subsystems which produce and process information, each subsystem being coupled to the bus system by a respective interface. A subsystem makes requests for information of a desired type, including an indication of such type of information, and also produces information which includes an indication of the type of produced information, information request from a subsystem are coupled by its interface to the bus system, the interface also supply the subsystem with information received from the bus system of a type requested by such subsystem and which originated from one or more other subsystems. The interface supplies the bus system with information produced by the subsystem when a request for that type of information has been received from the bus system.
