ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 21 -- United States Patent no. 12,771,027, issued on Oct. 20, was assigned to Oso Semiconductor Inc. (San Bruno, Calif.).

"Shunt-connected beamformer using balanced-impedance phase shifter" was invented by Matthew Anderson (San Bruno, Calif.) and Greg LaCaille (San Bruno, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A balanced impedance phase shifter (BIPS) beamforming system with reduced the RF loss and power consumption is provided. The system includes multiple beamforming ports, multiple phase shifters, and a summing node at which the multiple phase shifters are connected in shunt. Each phase shifter includes a programmable impedance controlling phase shifting at a respectiv...
