A Smoothing Technique for High-Linearity Wideband Receivers

LEAD INVENTOR:

Joseph Bardin, Ph.D.

 

PRODUCT OPPORTUNITIES

Wideband signal receivers for

• Wireless telecommunication systems

• Radio astronomy and space observation

• Remote sensing and environmental monitoring

• Consumer electronics and Internet of Things

 

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

• High dynamic range

• Interference resilience

• Reduced noise and enhanced linearity

• Cost-effective and Scalable

 

TECHNOLOGY DESCRIPTION

This invention demonstrates a novel signal processing technique to deconstruct a wideband input signal into a set of reduced amplitude/bandwidth signals, which are then amplified and digitized to be reconstructed in the digital domain using a minimal set of hardware.
