Robert Weigel 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: 7142070
    Abstract: A two-point modulator arrangement is specified, said arrangement being developed with respect to conventional two-point modulators to the effect that the high-pass coupling-in point of the modulator that comprises a phase locked loop is formed by an expanded loop filter. In accordance with the present principle, the expanded loop filter comprises a coupling-in element, at which the modulation signal is combined with the output signal of a phase comparator. A voltage-controlled oscillator having only one tuning input can thus advantageously be used.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: November 28, 2006
    Assignee: Infineon Technologies AG

  • Patent number: 6418133
    Abstract: This transmission method serves to transmit information between a base station (BS) and a multiplicity of subscriber stations (MS) in transmission channels of a broadband signal. The transmission channels can be distinguished by different codes (Cs, C1, . . . , Cq) which modulate the broadband signal and which themselves are each modulated by the information to be transmitted in the respective transmission channel and are superimposed in the broadband signal. In this context, there is provision for at least one of the transmission channels (for example Cs) to be emphasized, as a prioritized transmission channel, in comparison with the other transmission channels (C1, . . . , Cq), in that its phase angle is shifted by a fixed amount in comparison with the phase angle of the other transmission channels.
