Title: Direct mapping
Inventor: Shafagh Kamkar
IPC: H03M7/50
Filed: 2017-09-29
Abstract: A single-bit audio stream can be converted to a modified single-bit audio stream with a constant edge rate while maintaining a modulation index of the original audio stream using direct mapping. The input single bit audio stream is filtered to obtain a symbol selector corresponding to a stream of symbols represent equivalent audio content as a single bit audio stream but with constant edge rate and then outputting the stream of symbols to generate a converted single-bit audio stream with a constant edge rate. The filter selects a symbol selector to generate the converted single-bit audio stream without consecutive full-scale symbols to generate equivalent audio content. The filter may also modify a volume audio component or apply magnitude compensation or apply noise shaping.

Title: Highly linear input and output rail-to-rail amplifier
Inventor: Vaibhav Pandey
IPC: H03F3/45
Filed: 2020-04-30
Abstract: An amplifier includes input transconductors that receive an input signal, the input signal having a voltage swing. A supply side current mirror generates a gate voltage as a function of input signal voltage and current sources that provide a bias current of the input transconductors as a function of the gate voltage to maintain a constant bias current across the voltage swing of the input signal. Resistors average source voltages of the transconductance-cancelling transconductors to provide an average source voltage and apply the average source voltage to wells of input devices of the transconductance-cancelling transconductors to reduce back bias effect. The input devices are laid out in a same well and have a common centroid to cancel out process mismatches. A first I-DAC trims an offset of first transconductors, and a second I-DAC trims an offset of second transconductors to attain low offsets across a rail-to-rail input common mode range.

Title: System of anchoring by self-locking of woven fiber sleeves
Inventor: HUGO FRANCISCO LISBOA SANTOS
IPC: F16L33/01
Filed: 2022-08-31
Abstract: A system of anchoring by self-locking of woven fiber sleeves, characterized in that it has a conventional anchoring system, which comprises a conventional ring 1, a conventional ring house 2, a conventional ring stop 3, a woven sleeve 4 and an inverted anchoring system, which comprises an inverted ring (Fig 3, 5), an inverted ring house (Fig 3, 6), an inverted ring stop (Fig 3, 7), and a woven sleeve (Fig 3, 4). The woven sleeve 4 laces the conventional ring 1 so that when the sleeve 4 is tensioned, it pulls the conventional ring 1 against its stop 3 and thus performs a self-locking. The self-locking occurs because the friction force generated at the lace interface is greater than the sleeve tensioning force. It can be applied in pipes of reduced internal diameter, still being a robust tension anchoring solution. It can be applied to any part of the robot and as many times as necessary, not being limited to the connection with the umbilical.
