  • Publication number: 20240039549
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for spurious information reduction in a data signal are presented. Some configurations include mixing a plurality of analog input signals with different corresponding local oscillator signals to generate a corresponding plurality of converted signals; generating, from each of the plurality of converted signals, a corresponding one of a plurality of sampled signals; frequency shifting at least one signal that is based on at least one of the plurality of sampled signals to obtain, from at least the plurality of sampled signals, a plurality of frequency-aligned signals; and performing a common-mode filtering operation, based on information from the plurality of frequency-aligned signals, to produce a digital output signal.

  • Patent number: 11677410
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for spurious information reduction in a data signal are presented. One example of such an apparatus includes a data converter including a plurality of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and configured to produce a plurality of sampled signals, a normalizer configured to obtain a plurality of common-bandwidth signals from at least the plurality of sampled signals, and a common-mode filter configured to produce a digital output signal based on the plurality of common-bandwidth signals.

  • Publication number: 20220029721
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatus for spurious information reduction in a data signal are presented. One example of such an apparatus includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADCs) configured to sample a data signal at a plurality of different sampling rates to produce a corresponding plurality of sampled signals; a normalizer configured to obtain a plurality of common-bandwidth signals from at least the plurality of sampled signals; and a common-mode filter configured to produce a digital output signal based on the plurality of common-bandwidth signals.

  • Patent number: 5714964
    Abstract: A horned interferometer antenna apparatus has parallel plates spaced apart and rigidly connected together by a separator. In the space between the parallel plates is a plurality of antenna elements. The parallel plates each have a free edge which diverge from the other free edge defining an aperture for receiving electromagnetic waves. The horned interferometer antenna apparatus has enhanced directivity and is used for passive radio direction finding. An interferometer system comprises a horned interferometer antenna apparatus, a multi channel receiver and a phase comparator. The interferometer system measures the angle of arrival of an incident electromagnetic wave or signal based on the phase difference between the signal as received by the antenna elements of the horned interferometer antenna apparatus.
