20110053514 | REJECTION OF A CLOSE-IN-FREQUENCY INTERFERER EMPLOYING A LOG DETECTOR AND CLASSICAL DOWN CONVERTER - Disclosed is a methodology and apparatus for rejecting a high-power, near-in-frequency, radio frequency interference. The subject rejection methodology provides two branches; one is a classical down converter branch, and the other is a log detector followed by a high pass filter. The two branches produce a complex multiplication which cancels the highest inter modulation product and the final output is presented at the originally intended intermediate frequency. The methodology is appropriate for a constant-amplitude modulation on the interferer and any combination of phase, frequency, and amplitude modulation on the intended signal. | 03-03-2011 |

20150282988 | AUTOMATED CALIBRATION OF LASER SYSTEM AND TOMOGRAPHY SYSTEM WITH FLUORESCENT IMAGING OF SCAN PATTERN - A laser system calibration method and system are provided. In some methods, a calibration plate may be used to calibrate a video camera of the laser system. The video camera pixel locations may be mapped to the physical space. A xy-scan device of the laser system may be calibrated by defining control parameters for actuating components of the xy-scan device to scan a beam to a series of locations. Optionally, the beam may be scanned to a series of locations on a fluorescent plate. The video camera may be used to capture reflected light from the fluorescent plate. The xy-scan device may then be calibrated by mapping the xy-scan device control parameters to physical locations. A desired z-depth focus may be determined by defining control parameters for focusing a beam to different depths. The video camera or a confocal detector may be used to detect the scanned depths. | 10-08-2015 |
