20120139636 | Power Amplifier System with a Current Bias Signal Path - Power amplifier (PA) systems are typically comprised of a signal path integrated circuit (IC) and a power control IC. Advanced CMOS technologies may allow smart integration of such ICs into a single IC and provide an opportunity to improve performance and cost. Specifically, the radio frequency (RF) signal path is designed to enable local biasing of the gain stages that comprise the RF signal path. By using current-mode biasing instead of the prior art voltage-mode biasing significant area reduction is achieved as well as better isolation between the stages which reduces noise, and improves stability. | 06-07-2012 |

20120146722 | Power Amplifier Having a Nonlinear Output Capacitance Equalization - Power amplifier (PA), regardless of the process used for the manufacturing of its devices, suffers from a nonlinear output capacitance that has significant impact on various aspects of the PA performance. This output capacitance is dependent on the large output voltage swing. Accordingly a compensation capacitance is added at the output of the PA that has a behavior that is inverse respective of the output voltage of that of the output capacitance of the PA. Connecting the compensation capacitor in parallel to the PA output capacitance, results in a total capacitance that is the sum of the output capacitance and its compensation capacitance. The total output capacitance is therefore essentially stable throughout the output voltage swing. | 06-14-2012 |
20140015603 | Multi-Band/Multi-Mode Power Amplifier with Signal Path Hardware Sharing - Existing multi-band/multi-mode (MB/MM) power amplifiers (PAs) use separate signal paths for the different covered frequency bands.

Such sharing includes bias circuit and bypass capacitors sharing, as well as sharing front-end stages and the output stage of the PA. Signal multiplexing may be realized in the transmitter or at the PA front-end while the signal de-multiplexing can be realized either in the PA output stage or at the front-end of the output stage. Such circuits can be applied with saturated and linear MB/MM PAs with adjacent or non-adjacent bands. | 01-16-2014 |

20120219029 | Pulsed-Multiline Excitation for Color-Blind Fluorescence Detection - The present invention provides a technology called Pulse-Multiline Excitation or PME. This technology provides a novel approach to fluorescence detection with application for high-throughput identification of informative SNPs, which could lead to more accurate diagnosis of inherited disease, better prognosis of risk susceptibilities, or identification of sporadic mutations. The PME technology has two main advantages that significantly increase fluorescence sensitivity: (1) optimal excitation of all fluorophores in the genomic assay and (2) “color-blind” detection, which collects considerably more light than standard wavelength resolved detection. Successful implementation of the PME technology will have broad application for routine usage in clinical diagnostics, forensics, and general sequencing methodologies and will have the capability, flexibility, and portability of targeted sequence variation assays for a large majority of the population. | 08-30-2012 |

20130189925 | Pairing Wireless Device Using Multiple Modalities - The protocols necessary to establish a communication relationship between two wireless devices is established by first boot-strapping a configuration message using a first communication means to establish a temporary communicative state so that the two devices can thereafter explore, authenticate and thereafter establish a formal communication relationship using a second communication means. A transceiver can be used to determine the proximity of one device to another can also be used to establish and convey a configuration message providing the necessary information for the establishment of a communication relationship. Using signals generated by modulated electro-magnetic fields, a configuration message can be sent from one device to another device once the second device comes within a certain proximity of the first. Using this message, the second device can be informed as to the steps necessary to configure a high-bandwidth wireless transceiver for reception of pairing information. Once received, an authentication message containing unique information can be transmitted back to the first device establishing a formal communication relationship. Thus, as presented above, two devices can be wirelessly paired with minimal user interaction and with minimal gap in the perception as to which two devices are targeted. | 07-25-2013 |
20140041026 | Hybrid Virtual Machine - A method and system are disclosed for a hybrid virtual machine that allows untrusted software programs to be run securely and with high performance on computers having processors that lack hardware-assisted memory management. Contemporary computer platforms built to enable application developers to deploy software (“apps”) typically employ (a) hardware assisted memory-management and an operating system that “sandboxes” applications' access to hardware peripherals or (b) an interpreted code execution environment that acts as an insulating layer between running application code and the underlying computer hardware, with the environment configured to prevent inappropriate actions. Both contemporary approaches require a processor with a certain base level of performance and/or built-in features, which increases hardware costs. The present invention satisfies the goals of more expensive platforms but is operable on hardware with lesser performance capabilities and/or fewer features. | 02-06-2014 |
