Steven Yoon 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: 10051767
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for covering a fastener system. In one illustrative embodiment, an apparatus comprises a cover. The cover is configured to be placed over a fastener system at a surface of an object in which the fastener system is installed. The cover is comprised of a number of composite materials selected such that the cover is configured to reduce an effect of an electrical discharge, which occurs around the fastener system, on an environment outside the cover.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7623861
    Abstract: A wireless mobile telephone (400) is operated so as manage the performance of “off-frequency searches,” that is, searches for base station pilot signals that differ in frequency from the pilot signals in the mobile station's active set. Whenever frequency searching is performed (such as responsive to emerging from a reduced-power sleep mode), the mobile station performs on-frequency pilot signal searching (902) upon a prescribed active set frequency. Only if a prescribed off-frequency searching condition (903-908) is satisfied, the mobile station additionally performs off-frequency pilot signal searching (912) upon one or more neighboring base stations' frequencies.

  • Patent number: 6757541
    Abstract: A mobile station (16) may include a terminal equipment (10), a mobile station modem (14), a mobile telephone (12), and other features. A CPU (52) selectively generates control signals to efficiently control transmission of supplemental channel request messages (SCRM) by the mobile station (16). In one embodiment, transmission of a SCRM in response to a predetermined event is prohibited until a fixed period of time has elapsed since the last transmission of an SCRM in response to the predetermined event.

  • Patent number: 6731606
    Abstract: Novel techniques are disclosed for adjusting a power control setpoint to compensate for imperfect signal detection in a communication channel capable of discontinuous transmission (DTX). The power control setpoint is compensated for false detections by adjusting the power control setpoint by a dynamically determined setpoint back off amount upon detection of a Good frame. The amount of the setpoint back off is a function of the measured signal quality of the detected Good frame and the number of Erasure indications received immediately preceding the Good frame indication.
