  • Patent number: 9167971
    Abstract: A method and device for heart murmur extraction and classification is disclosed. Data corresponding to a heart sound/signal is acquired from a patient through a data acquirer. The heart sound data is processed to isolate systole and diastole periods. Features to discriminate between the defects types associated with different heart murmurs are extracted, and the heart murmurs are detected and identified based on the extracted features using a fuzzy controller.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 5, 2013
    Date of Patent: October 27, 2015
    Assignee: COMSATS Institute of Information Technology
    Inventors: Muhammad Sheraz Ahmad, Khurram Aziz, Shahid Khattak

  • Patent number: 8693966
    Abstract: A method for filtering out a useful signal of a mobile radio terminal from a plurality of superimposed signals having a signal quality received by base stations in a cellular mobile radio network. The superimposed signal of the mobile radio terminal is detected by base stations that are reached and the signal quality of the received and superimposed signal of every base station reached is determined. The signal quality of a selected base station is then transmitted to a decision element and a selection of a selected base station is made by the decision element to decode the useful signal of the mobile radio terminal. The invention also relates to a device for filtering out a useful signal of a mobile radio terminal from a plurality of superimposed signals received by base stations in a cellular mobile radio network.

  • Patent number: 8537711
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for eliminating interferences for an interconnected group of base stations of a mobile radio network when receiving data transmitted by mobile radio terminals in the mobile radio network, wherein a) the data are encoded at the mobile radio terminal device as symbols of a modulation alphabet, and modulated at a carrier frequency for transmitting, b) information regarding the symbols received at the base station of the interconnected group are transmitted between the base stations by means of communication connections for eliminating interferences, and c) the base stations of the interconnected group demodulate and decode the received symbols in a cooperative and decentralized manner.
