ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 28 -- United States Patent no. 12,694,071, issued on July 28, was assigned to SIM IP HXR LLC (Sunny Isles Beach, Fla.).
"Variable phase and frequency pulse-width modulation technique" was invented by Benjamin John Oliver Long (Bristol, Great Britain) and Rafel Jibry (Bristol, Great Britain).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Phased array systems rely on the production of an exact carrier frequency to function. Reconstructing digital signals by specified amplitude and phase is accomplished explicitly by inducing frequency shifts away from a base frequency implied by phase changes. Shifting the carrier frequency of a digitally controlled phased array while preserving the timing...
