Patent ID: 12000877

Abstract:
A method for atom-based closed-loop control includes exciting atoms of a gas into one or more Rydberg states, applying one or more signal processing functions to the one or more Rydberg states, and regulating a characteristic of the applied one or more signal processing functions based on, at least in part, a response of the one or more Rydberg states to the one or more signal processing functions. A system for internal quantum-state-space interferometry includes an atomic receiver, an interferometric pathway, and a detector. The interferometer includes an atomic vapor with first atomic states and second atomic states. The interferometric pathway from RF phases between the first and second atomic states is closed by a quantum-state-space. The detector is configured to detect a readout of an interferometric signal. Embodiments include atom-based automatic level control, baseband processors, phase-locked loops, voltage transducers, raster RF imagers and waveform analyzers.
